If Mamdani doesn't seriously do something about cars, I think I'm done with this city. It's absolutely fucking ridiculous out there. There were a lot of campaign promises made, we'll see if he follows through over the next 3-7 years.
Like, if Cuomo/Hochul end up being the electeds to have done the most to reduce car use in NYC, that'll be a pretty damning indictment of our leadership. A few more bus/bike lanes ain't gonna cut it.

This is the Wikipedia definition for human intelligence. Artificial intelligence (in the form of LLMs) does literally none of these things.
It doesn't act by itself, it isn't self-aware[1], it doesn't learn[2], it doesn't understand or form concepts[3], it doesn't logic or reason[4], it doesn't recognize patterns[5], plan, innovate, solve problems, make decisions[6], retain information or even use language to communicate[7].
LLMs are a simulated model (aka it's not real) of human intelligence. Models, in scientific parlance, are just that: they don't try to explain how a process works, they try to achieve the same outcome as a natural process (usually in an effort to perhaps learn something about that process).[8]
There simply is no "AI". Anyone telling you about how LLMs are sentient or sapient or will murder us is 100% bullshitting.
[1] There is nothing to be aware about, they don't have physicality. They're literally long lists of numbers.
[2] Models themselves are static, they're the result of machine learning, but can't grow beyond the initial state.
[3] LLMs don't "know" anything. It's matrix multiplications without permanence or embodiment. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Understanding
[4] Because they can't understand or form concepts, they can't reason about them.
[5] This requires memory, which LLMs don't have. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pattern_recognition_(psychology)
[6] Memory and understanding are required. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decision-making
[7] All it does it getting an input in the form of a lot of numbers and returns statistically likely follow-up numbers.
[8] "A model is an informative representation of an object, person, or system." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Model

Abstract: The Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey (NGVS) is a deep, high resolution imaging campaign that used the 1 deg$^2$ MegaCam instrument on the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope to carry out a comprehensive optical survey of the Virgo cluster, from its core to its virial radius. The NGVS covers a contiguous area of 104 deg$^2$ (8.63 Mpc$^2$ at the 16.5 Mpc distance of Virgo) in the $u^*$-,$g$-,$i$-, and $z$-band, with additional limited coverage in $r$. In this paper, we present the final catalog of Virgo galaxies across the entire NGVS area. The catalog includes 3680 galaxies considered to be $bona~fide$ members of the cluster, spanning a factor of 2.5 million in luminosity, from $g = 8.42$ mag to $g = 24.41$ mag ($M_g = -22.67$ mag to $M_g = -6.68$ mag). With 2100 previously uncataloged galaxies, the NGVS catalog augments the number of known Virgo members by a factor 2.3. The catalog is complete down to $g = 18.6$ mag ($M_g=-12.5$ mag, corresponding to a stellar mass $M_* \sim 1.6\times10^7~M_{\odot}$ for an old stellar population) and 50% complete at $g = 22.0$ mag ($M_g=-9.1$ mag, $M_* \sim 6.2\times10^5~M_{\odot}$), three magnitudes deeper than the venerable Virgo Cluster Catalog (VCC), which for over 40 years has served as the reference standard for Virgo. Photometric and structural parameters are derived for all NGVS galaxies and presented in a series of tables, alongside nuclear and morphological classification, as well as stellar masses and, when available, radial velocities.

Weak cool core, weak turbulence: XRISM, XMM-Newton and Chandra spectroscopy of the core of Abell 1413

https://arxiv.org/abs/2609.08778 https://arxiv.org/pdf/2609.08778 https://arxiv.org/html/2609.08778
arXiv:2609.08778v1 Announce Type: new
Abstract: We present the first XRISM spectroscopy of the core of Abell 1413 (z = 0.143), combining 104.7 ks of Resolve with archival XMM-Newton and Chandra spectra of a matched sky region. A1413 is hot, massive and relaxed but lacks a strong cool core (t_cool = 6.4 Gyr), a regime in which the low turbulence reported to date has been tested only once, in A3571. The Resolve spectrum requires a single velocity-broadened component with kT = 7.06 ( 0.33, -0.43) keV and a line-of-sight velocity dispersion sigma_v = 170 ( 25, -24) km/s (M_3D = 0.217). The bulk velocity relative to the brightest cluster galaxy, v_bulk = -24 /- 26 (z_ICM) /- 71 (z_BCG) km/s, is limited by the optical redshift rather than by Resolve, and disfavours coherent line-of-sight sloshing. The non-thermal pressure fraction, 2.5 /- 0.7 per cent, implies a hydrostatic mass bias b < 2.5 per cent, comparable to the strong cool-core cluster A2029 (2.6 /- 0.3 per cent) and, at matched sampling scale, if anything below it. With A3571 (1.3 /- 0.3 per cent), to which A1413 rescales within 0.2 sigma, two weak cool cores now show that this quiescence does not require central cooling. The resolved Fe-K He-alpha complex gives Fe = 0.38 /- 0.03 (stat) /- 0.04 (sys) solar; Ni/Fe, separated from Fe K-beta for the first time, is solar, as is the pattern as a whole. The Ne, Mg and Si lines that set Ne/Fe, Mg/Fe and Si/Fe lie below 2 keV, where our instruments disagree by 10-20 per cent; we therefore do not regard the SNIa fraction as constrained.

As long as Mastodon does UI stuff like this it won't be going broad appeal or mainstream.
(This specific message happens when you "bump" a post, i.e. remove existing boost and then immediately boost again, and you do it "too fast").
1. It should be called "reboost" in the message because the feature is called "boosting".
2. No one cares about the HTTP status code, it's just confusing to people who aren't devleopers.
3. The message shouldn't happen at all, i.e. the boost button must remain grayed out or unavailable while the post is considered boosted already (for example there could be a little indeterminate progress spinner to acknowledge you unboosted but while its not really unboosted).
4. The message should probably be shown where the error happens, if you have a big monitor you might miss it because it's n the screen corner.
5. The message should probably not just go away by itself before you had a chance to read it.
6. If you absolutely have to have errors like this (could be because user is on a stale page that shows the post as not boosted when it actually is), make the message more helpful (for example suggest to reload the page to see the latest).
7. Reboosting existing boosts is a relatively common usage pattern—possibly make it a feature and give the user extra information (like idk a warning about "You already reboosted this twice in the last week, are you sure you want to pester your followers again?")
This is of course only a small detail, but these UX issues quickly add up.
