Luckily, I only rarely get calls on my mobile phone—a not-smart-at-all Nokia 3210 (2024). But every time I wonder: is the voice quality of smartphone so much better? I see people happily talking on their smartphones in the metro or the bus, where it's extremely noisy. But I hardly understand a word on the Nokia, even in the best circumstances.

June 2026 was the second-warmest June on record globally, 0.12°C cooler than the warmest June in 2024.
The average global temperature for the last 12 months (July 2025 to June 2026) was 0.55°C above the 1991-2020 average, and 1.43°C above the 1850-1900 pre-industrial average.

I'm not even the first person to say things along this line either:
"Another motivation for reducing the steel intensity of modern society is to limit the consequences of geopolitical conflicts. The more steel we produce for peaceful purposes, the more steel becomes available for war and destruction. Remarkably, the production of military equipment is absent from modern steel statistics, and if mentioned, its share is very low. However, in times of war, steelmaking facilities switch to producing steel for military purposes. The steel industry can thus be converted into a weapons industry at any moment, and there is now a lot more steel production capacity available than there has ever been in history."
solar.lowtechmagazine.com/2024 buried in the last footnote.
Oh, and that article also shows the math that proves that there is no way to move to EVs without absolutely blowing through the carbon budget. You have to switch to bikes and trains. There's literally no other way to keep an even close to habitable planet.

AI vs cats: An AI image generation takes about 0.1-1Wh, so on gas is under 0.4g CO2 emission.
Keeping a cat causes emissions of about 310kg of CO2 a year, i.e. about 1kg/day. So under 30 seconds of cat gets you one AI image.
Cats also kill billions of birds.
I'm not suggesting getting rid of cats, but please consider that lot before threatening people for the use of AI.

Equivalence of Lin--Lu--Yau curvature and 1/2-Ollivier curvature on weighted graphs
Shiping Liu, Yunyan Yang
arxiv.org/abs/2608.05939 arxiv.org/pdf/2608.05939 arxiv.org/html/2608.05939
arXiv:2608.05939v1 Announce Type: new
Abstract: In this note, we prove that, on weighted graphs, the Lin--Lu--Yau curvature coincides with the $p$-Ollivier curvature up to scaling whenever the idleness parameter $p\geq 1/2$. Moreover, the threshold $1/2$ is sharp. This extends an earlier result of Bourne et al. (Ollivier--Ricci idleness functions of graphs, SIAM J. Discrete Math., 32 (2018), no. 2, 1408-1424), where combinatorial graphs were considered. This observation yields a simple proof for the global existence and uniqueness of solutions of the Lin--Lu--Yau curvature flow in Bai et al. (Ollivier Ricci-flow on weighted graphs, Amer. J. Math. 146 (2024), 1723-1747).

DefoEye: Python-Based Software for Facilitating Time-Series InSAR Analysis of Sentinel-1 Remote-Sensing Data
Alireza Taheri Dehkordi, Hossein Hashemi, Amir Naghibi

Abstract: Many existing time-series Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (TS-InSAR) software tools have limitations, including restricted geographic applicability, commercial licensing, and incomplete end-to-end processing support. Although GMTSAR avoids some of these constraints, it still requires substantial manual intervention and C-shell commands, lacks a user-friendly graphical interface, and omits important steps such as interferogram network pruning and anchoring of unwrapped interferograms. This paper introduces DefoEye (v1), an open-source Python-based software package that wraps GMTSAR and provides a unified, user-friendly TS-InSAR workflow for Sentinel-1 data. DefoEye supports parallel job execution, interferogram network pruning, and multiple anchoring options. Its performance was evaluated from 2020 to 2024 in four regions with different geological settings, deformation mechanisms, and atmospheric and climatic conditions. In Bologna, Italy; Gotland, Sweden; and Houston, USA, DefoEye results were compared with observations from 10 GNSS stations and showed strong agreement, with RMSE values of 4.3-11.9 mm and Pearson correlation coefficients of 0.63-0.95. In Karaj, Iran, where GNSS observations were unavailable, DefoEye was compared with other widely used processing tools and achieved similarly close agreement, with an RMSE of 4.8 mm/yr and a Pearson correlation coefficient of 0.98. These results demonstrate that DefoEye provides reliable TS-InSAR products for geological, hydrological, and environmental applications.

Two kinds of robustness are not the same: disentangling fault tolerance and low-SNR robustness in multi-domain event detection on real data
Isao Kurosawa
arxiv.org/abs/2606.29339 arxiv.org/pdf/2606.29339 arxiv.org/html/2606.29339
arXiv:2606.29339v1 Announce Type: new
Abstract: Reliable event detection underpins induced-seismicity monitoring for Carbon dioxide Capture and Storage (CCS) and geothermal operations, distributed acoustic sensing (DAS), and industrial condition monitoring. In each setting a detector must stay reliable both when sensors fail and when the signal is buried in noise. These two failure modes are routinely conflated, and architectural complexity is often credited with robustness it may not deserve. We assemble a unified binary event-detection benchmark from three physically distinct real sources -- Hi-net seismic waveforms, Utah FORGE 2024 borehole DAS, and MAFAULDA industrial vibration -- each mapped to a common 8-channel, 256-sample representation, and evaluate a fault-tolerant detector (CEPHALON) trained with per-sample sensor-dropout against standard detectors (a 1D convolutional network, a temporal convolutional network, and a compact Transformer) trained with an identical recipe. On clean data every model is near-perfect (AUC ~ 0.99). Under progressive sensor loss, simple models with sensor-dropout are already robust and CEPHALON holds no advantage. Under additive noise, however, CEPHALON degrades far more gracefully: at -2.5 dB its overall AUC is 0.939 versus 0.532-0.572 for the convolutional baselines. Same-architecture ablations isolate the cause: disabling internal redundancy at inference reduces the low-SNR advantage only modestly, whereas removing sensor-dropout training collapses it (0.899 to 0.603 at -5 dB). The training recipe is therefore the dominant cause and parallel redundancy only secondary. We release a complete, numbered, reproducible pipeline so that every figure can be regenerated.

Streudiagramm  Entwicklung der Bruttoleistung von Balkonsolarkraftwerken in Deutschland mit Stand vom 29.06.2026. Ein Streudiagramm zeigt die Entwicklung der Bruttoleistung (kWp) von Balkonsolarkraftwerken in Deutschland ab 2018. Jeder orange Punkt steht für eine Anlage. Die meisten Anlagen liegen unter 2 kWp, mit Ausreißern bis über 30 kWp. Die Anzahl und Leistung steigen ab 2022 deutlich an und sind anscheinend mit Inkrafttreten des „Solarpaketes“ am 16. Mai 2024 auf 2 kWp begrenzt.
