Social Housing Reading Group
What could social housing look like in San Francisco, and how do we get there? Join DSASF for a reading of the Budget and Legislative Analyst's report on how the city can build its own publicly owned, deeply affordable housing. We will also read the SF Berniecrats report, Housing for the 99%, which lays out a vision for social housing for all in San Francisco.

Green roofs shown to capture nearly all microplastics from rainwater
A small team of researchers at Tongji University, working with a colleague from the Shanghai Academy of Landscape Architecture Science and Planning, both in China, has found that growing plants on roofs can serve as an effective way to remove microplastics from the air. In their study, published in the journal Communications Earth & Environment, the group measured the amounts of microplastics found on plants and the soil in which they grow.

What would be a good role for an #AI assistant within a team consisting of multiple people?
Imagine a group of researchers working on a project, or teachers implementing a new approach, students working on an assignment together, or a small startup company launching a product.
What would be some tasks best delegated to an AI assistant (current tech) in these kinds of teams?

There's a lot of pressurefor businesses to get ahead with AI.
And I imagine at many companies
there's a sense that if you don't keep up, you're leaving innovation on the table.
At the same time, there's a gap between the excitement around AI and understanding what it means for each role.

"As I've mentioned before, I'm working (with a group of other volunteers) on producing a Local Place Plan for Auchencairn, and, in the process of doing that, we're using the Place Standard Tool. Data from the Place Standard Tool is delivered as an unwieldy CSV file with 53 columns, most of which contain narrative data.
This is pretty hard to analyse... so I've written a tool to automate summarising the data. And, actually, I'm quite pleased with it." -- m…

Equivariant Free Resolutions of Sequences of Symmetric Module

Equivariant Free Resolutions of Sequences of Symmetric Module
Given a sequence of related modules $M_n$ over a sequence of related Noetherian polynomial rings, where each $M_n$ is a representation of the symmetric group on $n$ letters, one may ask how to simultaneously compute an equivariant free resolution of each $M_n$. In this article, we address this question. Working in the setting of FI-modules over a Noetherian polynomial FI-algebra, we provide an algorithm for computing syzygies and FI-equivariant differentials. As an application, we show how this…

Surgeons Awareness, Expectations, and Involvement with Artificial Intelligence: a Survey Pre and Post the GPT Era
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming medicine, with generative AI models like ChatGPT reshaping perceptions of its potential. This study examines surgeons' awareness, expectations, and involvement with AI in surgery through comparative surveys conducted in 2021 and 2024. Two cross-sectional surveys were distributed globally in 2021 and 2024, the first before an IRCAD webinar and the second during the annual EAES meeting. The surveys assessed demographics, AI awareness, expectations, inv…

On the association scheme of perfect matchings and their designs
We investigate generalisations of 1-factorisations and hyperfactorisations of the complete graph $K_{2n}$. We show that they are special subsets of the association scheme obtained from the Gelfand pair $(S_{2n},S_2 \wr S_n)$. This unifies and extends results by Cameron (1976) and gives rise to new existence and non-existence results. Our methods involve working in the group algebra $\mathbb{C}[S_{2n}]$ and using the representation theory of $S_{2n}$.

Filters for NIR astronomical photometry: comparison of commercial IRWG filters and designs using OpenFilters
The photometric accuracy in the near-infrared (NIR) wavelength range (0.9 -2.6 microns) is strongly affected by the variability of atmospheric transmission. The Infrared Working Group (IRWG) has recommended filters that help alleviate this issue and provide a common standard of NIR filtersets across different observatories. However, accurate implementation of these filters are yet to be available to astronomers. In the meantime, InGaAs based detectors have emerged as a viable option for small a…

A Terminology and Quantitative Framework for Assessing the Habitability of Solar System and Extraterrestrial Worlds
The search for extraterrestrial life in the Solar System and beyond is a key science driver in astrobiology, planetary science, and astrophysics. A critical step is the identification and characterization of potential habitats, both to guide the search and to interpret its results. However, a well-accepted, self-consistent, flexible, and quantitative terminology and method of assessment of habitability are lacking. Our paper fills this gap based on a three year-long study by the NExSS Quantitat…
