CDash experiments update: Provisioned a VM (not yet reachable from the outside world) to tinker with it since it's been 10 years since I last used the platform.
How it's going so far: ran into https://github.com/Kitware/CDash/issues/3122

In this account, participants in the rapid response networks in the Twin Cities describe their experiences,
explore the threat represented by the development of Immigration and Customs Enforcement into a political police,
and propose a strategy for how the rapid response networks could rise to the challenge and contribute to revolutionary social change.

Rapid Response Networks in the Twin Cities
The rapid response networks people organize to defend their communities have undergone a whirlwind evolution to keep up with ever-shifting ICE tactics.

Towards precise synthetic neural codes: high-dimensional stimulation with flexible electrodes #BCI

Towards precise synthetic neural codes: high-dimensional stimulation with flexible electrodes - npj Flexible Electronics
Neural representations arise from high-dimensional population activity, but current neuromodulation methods lack the precision to write information into the central nervous system at this complexity. In this perspective, we propose high-dimensional stimulation as an approach to better approximate natural neural codes for brain-machine interfaces. Key advancements in resolution, coverage, and safety are essential, with flexible microelectrode arrays offering a promising path toward precise synth…
