I am once again getting a wave of right-wing spam SMSes from Hillsdale College (purportedly). Are they actually letting their institution’s name be attached to political spam? I realize there are all kinds of super gross things about Hillsdale as an institution, but even so, I’d think the institution would want to preserve some shred of self-respect, or at least try to keep up appearances.
The spam links are all the domain rght.io followed by 6-character alphanumeric codes, such as:
http://rght.io/jjne75
http://rght.io/ip0l3b
http://rght.io/646anh
http://rght.io/aem0ai
http://rght.io/8gplnp
http://rght.io/mncl8i
http://rght.io/eo556l
http://rght.io/15bk46
http://rght.io/igd8ga
http://rght.io/pp2ggf
(Those are random examples, I don’t want them validating my number; I just want to send the typical Fedi server traffic their way.)
I haven’t investigated the domain, server, etc. at all, but if anyone is inspired…have at it!

Predicting Post-Surgical Complications with Quantum Neural Networks: A Clinical Study on Anastomotic Leak
Quantum computing represents a transformative leap in computational power, with the potential to revolutionize various fields, including healthcare. In this study, we explore the application of quantum machine learning in medical diagnostics, specifically focusing on the prediction of anastomotic leak, a severe post-surgical complication. By comparing quantum neural networks implemented with different ansatz functions to classical classification approaches-including logistic regression, support…

Absence of reflectivity of the phonon-polariton at the SiC surface from the metal mask edge
Surface phonon polariton (SPhP) waves are excited at the silicon carbide ($SiC$) surface under irradiation of light close to the lattice resonance frequency. Metal mask at the surface blocks irradiation of certain areas and thus allows tuning standing or propagating wave pattern and, thus, open opportunities for surface polariton optic devices. In this study we show by means of scanning near-field microscopy that the edge of such a mask reflects SPhP waves negligibly. This condition differs dra…

Polarization switching on the open surfaces of the wurtzite ferroelectric nitrides: ferroelectric subsystems and electrochemical reactivity
Binary ferroelectric nitrides are promising materials for information technologies and power electronics. However, polarization switching in these materials is highly unusual. From the structural perspective, polarization reversal is associated with the change of the effective polarity at the surfaces and interfaces from N-to-M terminated, suggesting strong coupling between ferroelectric and chemical phenomena. Phenomenologically, macroscopic studies demonstrate the presence of complex time dep…

Protostellar disks in their natural habitat -- the formation of protostars and their accretion disks in the turbulent and magnetized interstellar medium
We present simulations of the supernova-driven turbulent interstellar medium (ISM) in a simulation domain of volume $(256\,{\rm pc})^3$ within which we resolve the formation of protostellar accretion disks and their stellar cores to spatial scales of $\sim 10^{-4}$ au, using the moving-mesh code {\small AREPO}. We perform simulations with no magnetic fields, ideal magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) and ambipolar diffusion, and compare the resulting first Larson cores and their associated structures, in…
