When Ashley Robinson and her mother took DNA tests 10 years ago and began meeting long lost cousins,
they stumbled across a surprising family history that changed their lives.
Robinson’s lineage traced back to the 272 West Africans who were enslaved by Jesuits
and sold to plantation owners in the southern US in 1838.
The sale of the enslaved Africans helped fund Georgetown University,
the oldest Jesuit higher education institution in the US,
and served a…

Amid attacks on DEI, a US nonprofit offers reparations, education and healing: ‘We’re looking to fill the gap’
A Louisiana-based organization is providing a global model for reconciliation as it champions reparations for the descendants of West Africans enslaved by Jesuits

"The Sacred Band [of Thebes], we are told, was first formed by Gorgidas, of 300 chosen men, to whom the city furnished exercise and maintenance and who encamped in the Kadmeia. But some say that this band was composed of lovers and beloved." 🌈
Plutarch, The Parallel Lives

Red-figure vase painting of Achilles, depicted as a beardless young man, bandaging Patroclus, who is depicted as a mature bearded man. Both are still in full armour, wearing helmet, cuirass (to protect the torso) and pteryges, the "leather skirt" so iconic in Greek armour. Patroclus is sitting with spread legs, exposing his flaccid penis, giving the scene an erotic element.

On novel Hamiltonian description of the nonholonomic Suslov problem
We present some new Poisson bivectors that are invariants by the flow of the nonholonomic Suslov problem. Two rank four invariant Poisson bivectors have globally defined Casimir functions and, therefore, define cubic Poisson brackets on the five dimensional state space with standard symplectic leaves. For the Suslov gyrostat in the potential field we found rank two Poisson bivectors having only two globally defined Casimir functions and, therefore, we say about formal Hamiltonian description in…

From Tea Leaves to System Maps: Context-awareness in Monitoring Operational Machine Learning Models
Machine learning (ML) models in production do not fail due to statistical anomalies in their input data; they fail due to contextual misalignment -- when their environment deviates from training assumptions, leading to unreliable predictions. Effective ML monitoring requires rich contextual information to move beyond detecting statistical shifts toward meaningful alerts and systematic root-cause analysis. Yet, surprisingly, despite extensive research in ML monitoring and related disciplines (dr…
