Mental health benefits of retirement not evenly shared among different income levels, study says
The impact of retirement on mental health depends on income level, the nature of the job left behind, and the age at which people leave the workforce, a study suggests.

August 2025 was the third-warmest August globally, behind only 2023 and 2024, with an average surface air temperature of 16.60°C, 1.29°C above the estimated 1850-1900 average used to define the pre-industrial level.

- Online Geometric Hitting Set and Set Cover Beyond Unit Balls in $\mathbb{R}^2$

Why should we rent the essentials of daily life we already own? Paywalling them behind monthly fees is absurd.
Imagine being told your stove won’t cook dinner unless you’ve paid this month’s subscription, it’s the same scammy logic as locking the full performance of a car you already bought behind a monthly fee.
Enshittification is just corporations selling you the same thing twice, and calling it ‘innovation.’

Det hjælper virkelig godt på mit stressniveau at tage mig tid til bare at sidde i sofaen og læse en god bog (jeg er nu nået til syvende bind i Mary Russell og Sherlock Holmes-serien som foregår i et eksotisk fyrstedŸmme i Indien hvis herre viser sig at være rablende vanvittig og dŸdeligt farlig. Herlig eskapisme).

Uncovering the network geometry of green bonds
With the rapid growth of the green bond market amid increasing emphasis on sustainable development, understanding its structural properties and potential systemic risks has become essential. This study applies Minimum Spanning Tree (MST) and Hierarchical Tree (HT) methods introduced by Mantegna, which gives a minimum spanning tree of bonds whose mutual distance corresponds to the correlation coefficient of the synchronous time evolution of the difference of the logarithm of their monthly price.…

Several US states have passed bills to ban or restrict AI mental health treatment, as experts say state laws lag behind the fast-moving AI therapy landscape (Devi Shastri/Associated Press)

States struggle with AI therapy app rules amid mental health needs
As mental health chatbots driven by artificial intelligence proliferate, a small number of states are trying to regulate them. Laws in Illinois, Nevada and Utah are among the first in the nation to put limits on or ban therapy chatbots. But app creators, policymakers and mental health advocates say it is just a start and federal regulation would be ideal. App makers worry the patchwork of laws could stifle innovation needed due to a nationwide shortage of human therapists. They also note that m…

BiND: A Neural Discriminator-Decoder for Accurate Bimanual Trajectory Prediction in Brain-Computer Interfaces
Decoding bimanual hand movements from intracortical recordings remains a critical challenge for brain-computer interfaces (BCIs), due to overlapping neural representations and nonlinear interlimb interactions. We introduce BiND (Bimanual Neural Discriminator-Decoder), a two-stage model that first classifies motion type (unimanual left, unimanual right, or bimanual) and then uses specialized GRU-based decoders, augmented with a trial-relative time index, to predict continuous 2D hand velocities.…

Activists say Israel's navy has begun intercepting a Gaza-bound aid flotilla
BARCELONA, Spain — Activists on board a flotilla of vessels sailing toward Gaza said late Wednesday that the Israeli navy has begun intercepting their vessels as they approach the besieged Palestinian territory. The Global Sumud Flotilla, with Greta Thunberg, Nelson Mandela's grandson, Mandla …
