Feds look to rename New York City’s Penn Station, potentially for Trump
In a letter sent Wednesday to Senate leadership on several committees, Duffy lists “administration priorities” for the federal rebuilding of the nation’s busiest rail hub.

I've finished reading Simon Winder's "#Germania" a while ago, but I've been slacking with the review. This is a book about the history of #Germany, in the wide meaning of word. However, it's not your boring detailed history book. The author takes us on a deeply personal journey across German landscape, across tiny towns and great forests, Schlosses, churches and monuments, and uses that as a context to bring the country's surprisingly interesting history to light. And honestly, it works — it is deeply enjoyable, to the point of making me wonder if one day I should actually move to Germany, get a Bahncard 100 and start exploring myself.
I didn't quote the book here, but if I were to choose one quote that really resonated with me, it would be:
"""
Solitary tourism is something that everybody should indulge in. Of course it is a fraudulent solitude because its enjoyment comes from its limited duration and having a cheerful, only very temporarily abandoned main base area. […] And then, suddenly, I am in Vienna, standing in the shadow of a monstrous, derelict flak tower, and completely alone. The virtue of solitary tourism is its infinite ability to absorb boredom. I often find myself almost crippled with anxiety that the companion or companions on a journey might be finding everything wholly without interest, would rather be eating somewhere else, are secretly angry that we have wound up walking down this street rather than that, are contemptuous of my own interests. Solitary tourism cauterizes all this: if a museum is boring beyond all measure there is no pressure to feign interest, you just leave. I am perfectly happy, in a zoned-out way, to crisscross a town, walking for hours, just for the off-chance something curious might be round the next corner – indeed in the confidence that there will always be something curious (there always is). But for each street, each bar, each folklore museum to be converted into an inter-human negotiation creates an entirely different dynamic.
[…]
Quite possibly the pleasure of this way of life would be much reduced in some other countries, particularly more insistently gregarious places such as Italy. German culture puts a high value on temporary solitude of a stagey kind. Perhaps this is its great gift. In some moods I think there is no need to do anything other than read German writers from the first half of the nineteenth century – a sort of inexhaustible storehouse of attitudes flattering to those who just like sometimes to be left alone. Everyone must have at least a part of them that wants to live in a stairless, doorless tower as a sort of intellectual Rapunzel, setting aside, at least in part, the complicated sexual frisson laid out by such an idea. Germany really is thick with ivy-covered turrets and the promise of solitude (Kepler staring at the planets above Prague, Faust conjuring demons) – the great majority presumably built in the nineteenth century in response to the whole literature devoted to the subject. There is one turret in Lübeck, built onto a city guard tower of just outrageous fakeness, which would do me for life.
"""
(Simon Winder, Germania)
And if you follow me, you have evidence that the part about crisscrossing towns is so true: the best things I've posted here I found by complete accident, especially the murals.

Precipitation diffusion downscaling and application to out-of-distribution simulations with and without stratospheric aerosol injection

Abstract: Stratospheric aerosol injection (SAI), a possible climate engineering strategy where reflective particles are injected into the stratosphere, has been explored to mitigate global warming and its associated risks, such as the intensification of extreme precipitation events. However, current Earth system models (ESMs) often used to simulate SAI and other climate change scenarios are too coarse to properly assess such risks. Traditional statistical downscaling methods, used to project higher resolution impacts, may be biased and unrealistic. To address this, we train a deep learning diffusion downscaler to generate 0.25{\deg} contiguous United States (CONUS) daily precipitation using historical and future climate simulations from the Mesoscale Atmosphere-Ocean Interaction in Seasonal-to-Decadal Climate Prediction (MESACLIP) project, then apply the diffusion downscaler to out-of-distribution CESM2 simulations with and without SAI. The diffusion model generates realistic downscaled precipitation using either MESACLIP or CESM2 inputs. It also faithfully recreates the climate change projections of extreme precipitation in MESACLIP. Diffusion-downscaled projections of the future CESM2 SAI scenarios suggest that SAI could nearly cut in half the CONUS-average increase in yearly max precipitation, compared to the non-SAI scenario. However, there is considerable regional variation and internal variability, with SAI modeled to only slightly reduce increases in extreme precipitation frequency in the Mid Atlantic and the Pacific Northwest, but mitigating most intensification in other regions. Future application of diffusion downscaling to a wider variety of SAI scenarios would provide valuable insight into how proposed SAI strategies may affect precipitation variability on fine spatial scales for regional impact assessments.

Is emoji interpretation just a "fun" summer topic, or does emoji misinterpretation ever become serious, like in court discussions? - In face there have been several cases both in North America and Europe where emoji meanings were negotiated in court! I keep a collection of them because it's a nice intersection with my alter ego, the "forensic" linguist. For example, in cases from Canada and Bavaria, judges had to decide whether a thumbs-up 👍 in a chat was meant as a signal of agreement (to a contract or contract amendment), or whether (like the senders argued) it constituted only an acknowledgement of receipt of the message. In both cases, the context was super important - how did the parties interact before, what else was said in the chat, etc. Interesting! #emojis #linguistics #WorldEmojiDay

Amazon unveils new AI agents, trying to thread the needle between autonomy and human control
AWS used its New York Summit to roll out AI agents that act on their own — from fixing security vulnerabilities to triaging email — while trying to keep humans in control of how far they go.

Though it is uncommon now to see roving caravans of agents patrolling LA,
people are still being detained.
Often, this is at immigration check-in appointments.
But Shepard and other attorneys and advocates said people are still being arrested in targeted raids,
or as bystanders at raids.
