Information dynamics, natural computing and Maxwell's demon in two skyrmions system
The probabilistic information flow and natural computational capability of a system with two magnetic skyrmions at room temperature have been experimentally evaluated. Based on this evaluation, an all-solid-state built-in Maxwell's demon operating at room temperature is also proposed. Probabilistic behavior has gained attention for its potential to enable unconventional computing paradigms. However, information propagation and computation in such systems are more complex than in conventional co…

When is the AI bubble going to pop?
Why do we put up with fascist gaslighting when we should be screaming the truth at them?
Why is mainstream media and mainstream centre politics so accommodating of the far-right?

I just ran across this on LinkedIn: yet another study showing that LLMs embed and amplify human biases in the training data—this time in resume screening.
Yet this is the technology Trump, Musk, and DOGE want to use to rewrite things like HUD regulations and to replace human support agents.

Geometric Convergence to an Extreme Limit Space with nonnegative scalar curvature
In 2014, Gromov conjectured that sequences of manifolds with nonnegative scalar curvature should have subsequences which converge in some geometric sense to limit spaces with some notion of generalized nonnegative scalar curvature. In recent joint work with Changliang Wang, the authors found a sequence of warped product Riemannian metrics on $\Sph^2\times \Sph^1$ with nonnegative scalar curvature whose metric tensors converge in the $W^{1,p}$ sense for $p<2$ to an extreme warped product limit s…

TIL: On Taiwan TV, the BBC series “Doctor Who” is translated as “⁠何博士”.
博士 is simply the word for doctor (the academic degree, not a medical practitioner). But 何 is both a Chinese surname (transcribed as Ho or Hé) and an interrogative pronoun for “what” or “how”. Clever translation.
BBC and Disney use 超時空奇俠 as the Chinese title which translates as "across-time-space strange hero" and Netflix uses ⁠神秘博士 "Mysterious Doctor". 🤷

Tunability of Robust Exciton-Trion Polaritons in Atomically Thin WS2 Monolayers
Herein, we present an experimental demonstration of the robust exciton-trion polaritons (ETPs) by measuring and simulating the resonance reflectance spectra of various configurational WS2 monolayers with different dielectric screenings. Moreover, the oscillator strength and decoherent behavior of such hybrid ETPs can be tuned via utilizing dielectric screening effect. The effect is attributed to the regulation of the Coulomb coupling between excitons and trions by changing the surrounding diele…

ugh, just came home from vacation to discover I forgot some arrows in the pantry. of course they're swarming with time flies. disgusting.
