Crypto Venture Capital Funds Under Pressure to Produce Returns
Judging by a record Bitcoin rally that fueled a $1 trillion jump in the digital-asset market this year, crypto fever is back. But look beneath the surface to trends in venture capital and a far more sober picture emerges.

Florida Man Leaves Tactical Vest And Loaded Rifle Behind After Crashing Stolen Plane Into Lamp Post — Jalopnik
If I was going to try and steal a vehicle, I’d at least make sure I knew how to control it before I made the dastardly attempt. That doesn’t appear to have been a consideration for one Florida man that tried to make off with a light aircraft this week, as they managed to crash the craft into a lamppost before even making it to the runway.

Activist Judges Want to Oust Spain’s Broad-Left Government
Spanish prime minister Pedro Sánchez may resign after a judge launched a bogus corruption probe targeting his wife, Begoña Gómez. The case is a farce pushed by far-right lobbyists that shows the need to rein in Spain’s politicized judiciary.

Dynamical analysis of coupled curvature-matter scenario in viable $f(R)$ dark energy models at de Sitter phase
We explore the interaction between dark matter and curvature-driven dark energy within viable $f(R)$ gravity models, employing the phase-space analysis approach of linear stability theory. By incorporating an interacting term, denoted as $\mathcal{Q}=αH \tildeρ_{\rm m}\left(\frac{κ^2 }{3H^2}ρ_{\rm curv} + 1 \right)$, into the continuity equations of both sectors, we examine dynamics of two $f(R)$ gravity models that adhere to local gravity constraints and fulfill cosmological viability crit…

A Heterotic Hermitian--Yang--Mills Equivalence
We consider N=1, d=4 vacua of heterotic theories in the large radius limit in which alpha' << 1. We construct a real differential operator $\mathcal{D}= D+\bar{D}$ on an extension bundle $(Q, \mathcal{D})$ with underlying topology $Q=(T^{1,0}X)^* \oplus {\rm End} \, E \oplus T^{1,0} X$ whose curvature is holomorphic and Hermitian-Yang-Mills with respect to the complex structure and metric on the underlying non-Kahler complex 3-fold X if and only if the heterotic supersymmetry equations and Bian…

All careers have pros and cons but what I love above all in #DevRel is the possibility to discover places I wouldn’t have gone to. I love to go for a run on the Mont Royal when in Montréal.
Also, don’t forget the Software Crafters Montréal Meetup tomorrow in #APISIXNorthAmericaTour 🗓️<…

Intrinsic torsion and scalar curvature of Spin(7)-structure
We derive the explicit formula for the intrinsic torsion of a ${\rm Spin}(7)$-structure on an $8$--dimensional Riemannian manifold $M$. Here, the intrinsic torsion is a difference of the minimal ${\rm Spin}(7)$--connection and the Levi-Civita connection. Hence it is a a section of a bundle $T^{\ast}M\otimes\mathfrak{spin}^{\bot}(M)$. The formula relates the intrinsic torsion with the Lee form $θ$ and $Λ^3_{48}$--component $(δΦ)_{48}$ of a codifferential $δΦ$ of the $4$--form defining a gi…

Dynamics of viable $f(R)$ dark energy models in the presence of Curvature-Matter interactions
In this study, we analyze the dynamics of the interaction between dark matter and curvature-driven dark energy in viable $f(R)$ gravity models using the framework of dynamical system analysis. We incorporate this interaction by introducing a source term in their respective continuity equations, given by $Q = \frac{κ^2 α}{3H}\tildeρ_{\rm m}ρ_{\rm curv}$, and examine two $f(R)$ gravity models that comply with local gravity constraints and cosmological viability criteria. Our findings reveal s…
