Right, my #Clojure humidity library now computes all the values that I think it should. The code could do with a bit of tidying up, there is no data validation, I have no reliable test data for the actual-vapour-pressure function, and I can't yet do the time-shifting computations I want; but nevertheless I think this is now usable and useful.

Generalization Error Estimation for Primal--Dual Algorithms in Non-Smooth Regression

Abstract: This paper studies trajectory-wise estimation of generalization error for primal--dual algorithms in non-smooth regression. Motivating examples include \(\ell_1\)-penalized least absolute deviations regression and square-root Lasso regression, where the data-fitting loss is non-differentiable and existing risk estimators for gradient-type optimization paths do not apply directly. We develop a general recursive framework that includes the Chambolle--Pock algorithm and related primal--dual splitting methods. We estimate risk by correcting each in-sample fitted value with a weighted combination of past dual iterates. The ideal weights are Stein derivative contractions and depend on the design covariance. We construct replacement weights from observable derivative contractions of the fitted-signal trajectory, yielding a covariance-free, data-driven correction. For high-dimensional Gaussian designs and fixed finite iteration horizon, we prove finite-sample guarantees for both estimators. For square-root ridge, we further establish a matched-Gaussian universality result beyond Gaussian designs. Numerical experiments show that the proposed estimators accurately track the out-of-sample risk along finite optimization paths.

Having protocol decodes overlaid on your FPGA ILA traces is an absolute game changer, I'm never going back to the Vivado ILA lol.
I need to do a bit more polishing of the UI and improve some workflows and probably add a JTAG and Ethernet transport and some other things like adding proper trigger comparators instead of hard coding external trigger only.
But using ngscopeclient for FPGA debug for just a couple of days is already making me wonder what took me so long to do this…

Entweder macht sie eine Minderheitsregierung und kann alles was sie nicht durchsetzen kann auf die unkonstruktiven anderen Parteien oder auf Berlin schieben.

Information-Theoretic Black Hole Entropy I: Beyond the Area Law

arXiv:2608.05795v1 Announce Type: new
Abstract: Although the Bekenstein-Hawking area law is consistent with the first and second laws of black hole thermodynamics, it appears to be in conflict with the third law, which in the Nernst formulation states that the entropy should either vanish or approach a universal constant in the zero-temperature limit. We argue that this tension reflects a limitation of the semiclassical area law rather than a fundamental feature of black hole thermodynamics. On this basis, we obtain an entropy formula that is consistent with the third law, and approaches Bekenstein-Hawking entropy in the high-temperature limit. The resulting entropy admits a simple microscopic interpretation, and it can be written as the Kullback-Leibler divergence between a mass-biased Bernoulli distribution and the uniform distribution on N microscopic bits. From this perspective, the thermodynamic black hole entropy admits an information-theoretic representation as an entropy deficit, namely as the relative entropy between the black hole ensemble and a maximally mixed reference ensemble. The Bekenstein-Hawking area law then emerges as the leading term in an $1/N$ expansion, while a universal mass scale $M_0=\sqrt{N}\,M_P$, interpreted as an absolute upper bound on the black hole mass, controls the bias of the underlying microscopic ensemble. The subleading terms represent finite-information corrections to the classical area law.

Abstract: Let \(X\) be a closed Riemann surface and let \(q\in H^0(X,K^4)\) be a nonzero holomorphic quartic differential on \(X\). For \(t >0\), the ray \(tq\) determines a family of Hitchin representations in the \(\operatorname{PSp}(4,\mathbb R)\)-Hitchin component. We study, as \(t\to \infty\), the asymptotic behavior of their holonomy along closed curves. We obtain explicit asymptotic formulas for all singular values and for the absolute values of all eigenvalues of the holonomy. Their logarithmic growth rates are given by integrating the local fourth roots of \(q\) along the saddle connections forming the geodesic representative of the curve with respect to the singular flat metric \(\lvert q\rvert^{1/2}\). No restriction is imposed on the orders of the zeros of \(q\).

Abstract: Quantile regression is well suited to heterogeneous and heavy-tailed data, but computation becomes challenging for large, distributed data sets because the check loss is nonsmooth. We propose a distributed stochastic smoothing alternating direction method of multipliers (DSS-ADMM) for horizontally partitioned penalized quantile regression. Each worker computes a mini-batch gradient of a Huber-smoothed check loss, and a coordinator performs a single proximal aggregation step for the regularizer. Raw observations remain local, worker updates run in parallel, and the method requires no matrix inversion. For proper, closed, and convex penalties, stacking the local coefficient vectors yields a standard two-block stochastic ADMM formulation. With fixed smoothing, we establish an expected $O(\log K/\sqrt K)$ joint objective-feasibility bound and an explicit $\eps/4$ approximation term for the original check-loss objective; when the smooth block is strongly convex, the bound improves to $O(\log K/K)$. We also characterize the scope of an extension to the minimax concave penalty and the smoothly clipped absolute deviation penalty. Reproducible simulations consider both homogeneous worker partitions, in which observations are independently and identically distributed across workers, and heterogeneous partitions, in which worker-specific covariate distributions differ. Sensitivity studies and analyses of the diabetes and Engel data illustrate the trade-offs among per-observation gradient evaluations, communication, consensus, sparsity, and prediction.

While I am certain that the wonderful* folks in Ken Paxton's office are doing this merely for performative reasons, I am genuinely conflicted about this one.
On one hand, I think it would be interesting to see what - if anything - comes of this action. If nothing else, discovery should be an absolute hoot.
On the other hand - I'm pretty sure that any action that is taken in this case will be tainted by Paxton's corruption, and it won't actually benefit the people of Texas (or anywhere else).
Attorney General Ken Paxton has opened an investigation into LinkedIn Corporation (“LinkedIn”) over allegations that the company has advertised and profited from fake or misleading job opportunities, commonly known as “ghost jobs,” on its platform.

Successfully returned from our rescue & retrieval mission of my son's Apple Pencil which fell through the decking at a café yesterday. He made some wire hooks to lift it back out through the gap between the boards, like a pro... Result: E-waste avoided and 149 Euro saved (what an absolute rip off)!

Shouting into the wind about “planned maintenance” without notification by my ISP.
They are, essentially a monopoly and as either a consequence or a flex, they exert the absolute minimum of care. I loathe them and would take my business elsewhere, but alas… monopoly.

Yeah, I would never, ever, EVER buy a new car off the lot these days. Car dealerships & their service depts are the absolute worst.

Spending the weekend farm-sitting in South Bay with #SamsungTv that has no #jellyfin client and the absolute worst browser you ever tried, but I got in and with practice could watch my movies and, I discovered, could put my entire music channel on random play!
Except, another jellyfin Inexplicable, if it hits an unsupported file, FULL STOP and a dialog box. So it cannot run unattended (unless your collection is Pure) 😔
