US Environmental Protection Agency suspends 139 staffers over letter criticizing Trump policies
The letter, signed by more than 200 people, accused Administrator Lee Zeldin of pushing policies that endanger public health and the environment.

Neues Transparent gegen Polizei im Phoenix-Viertel sorgt für Diskussionen
Hamburg-Harburg, 05.06.2025 – In der Nacht zu Donnerstag wurde im Phoenix-Viertel erneut ein Transparent mit polizeikritischer Botschaft aufgehängt. Die Aktion reiht sich in eine Serie ähnlicher Vorko

MultiGen: Using Multimodal Generation in Simulation to Learn Multimodal Policies in Real
Robots must integrate multiple sensory modalities to act effectively in the real world. Yet, learning such multimodal policies at scale remains challenging. Simulation offers a viable solution, but while vision has benefited from high-fidelity simulators, other modalities (e.g. sound) can be notoriously difficult to simulate. As a result, sim-to-real transfer has succeeded primarily in vision-based tasks, with multimodal transfer still largely unrealized. In this work, we tackle these challenge…

Generation of Intense Deep-Ultraviolet Pulses at 200 nm
We report the generation of intense deep ultraviolet pulses at 200 nm with a duration of 48 fs and pulse energy of 130 uJ, achieved via cascaded sum frequency generation using 800 nm femtosecond pulses in barium borate crystals. Efficient frequency up-conversion is realized by optimizing phase-matching conditions and implementing dispersion control, while maintaining the ultrashort pulse characteristics. The generated deep ultraviolet pulses are characterized using two-photon absorption frequen…

Die DPolG (bzw. ihr durchgeknallter Posterboy Ostermann) erklärt, alles sei supi, die GdP weist auf die möglichen juristischen Probleme für ihre Mitglieder hin, wenn sie den Anweisungen des rechtsbrecherischen Innenministerclowns Folge leisten. Da sieht man dann deutlich den Unterschied zwischen einer Gewerkschaft und einer rechtsradikalen Trollhöhle.

"The places that need to worry are those that look vulnerable or unlikely to fight back. Greenland may fall into that category — which suggests that Denmark and the EU need to find ways of letting Trump know that there will be a price to pay if he makes a move on the island"

VB-Com: Learning Vision-Blind Composite Humanoid Locomotion Against Deficient Perception
The performance of legged locomotion is closely tied to the accuracy and comprehensiveness of state observations. Blind policies, which rely solely on proprioception, are considered highly robust due to the reliability of proprioceptive observations. However, these policies significantly limit locomotion speed and often require collisions with the terrain to adapt. In contrast, Vision policies allows the robot to plan motions in advance and respond proactively to unstructured terrains with an o…
