"Of all the things at risk, the loss of an objective reality is perhaps the most dangerous. The death of truth is the ultimate victory of evil. When truth leaves us, when we let it slip away, when it is ripped from our hands, we become vulnerable to the appetite of whatever monster screams the loudest."
Mon Mothma, Andor Season 2 Episode 9
Just like the first season: this show is far better than any Star Wars show has the right to be.

It's official: #StarWars #Andor's finale was the MOST WATCHED content across all streaming services in May.

Andor.
Film noir plus some action in a rich environment. (But still very Disney., annoying companion droids for example.)
It's "Luck makes the galaxy turn, right?" instead of "Remember, the force will be with you, always."

Boy Andor was a slow burn, but what a great show.
Re-watching Rogue One now, neat to see them line up.

Disney schafft mit ANDOR eine viel gelobte ScIFi-Serie, doch Milliardenverluste zwingen zum Sparen. Mehrere #StarWars Serien werden abgesetzt: KENOBI Staffel 2? Abgesagt.

Finally finished #Andor and I say it without a doubt: it is the most important (perhaps the best) Star Wars content since the original trilogy. I'm so happy that I got to see it but at the same time it's a shame that (probably) nothing like this would be made ever again.
Some more deep thoughts here:

A ★★★★★ review of Andor: A Disney+ Day Special Look (2022)
There is no other way to put this: Andor is the most important and most significant Star Wars content ever since the original trilogy. Perhaps even better. At it's core, the original Star Wars trilogy it's about the fight against an authoritarian regime. Certainly influenced by the impact of the Vietnam War and WWII. Although presented in a way that it's suitable for all audiences. Andor takes this premise and takes it to the extreme, to the brutality of war and rebellion, and to the hope and h…

Imagine how different the Disney parks Star Wars lands would have been if Andor had come out before they built those.

Final episode of #Andor's 2nd season was the one I liked most. That droid looks amazing and is the comic relief that I needed. There's also a feeling that the clock is running out. This is something the season has lacked in my opinion. Every other episode starts with "One Year Later"...
VFX were consistently great except for some reason I didn't like the corn field plane…

Gilroy: Fascists destroy communities... that's what Andor is about.

Identical representation functions of linear forms
For a set of natural numbers $A$, let $R_{A}(n)$ be the number of representations of a natural number $n$ as the sum of two terms from $A$. Many years ago, Nathanson studied the conditions for the set $A$ and $B$ of natural numbers that are needed to guarantee that $R_{A}(n) = R_{B}(n)$ for every positive integer $n$. In the last decades, similar questions have been studied by many authors. In this paper, we extend Nathanson's result to representation functions associated to linear forms and we…

An experimental approach: Converting verbal expressions to numerical scales
One of the key issues in decision problems is the selection and use of the appropriate response scale. In this paper verbal expressions are converted into numerical scales for a subjective problem instance. The main motivation for our research was that verbal values in decision tasks are often mechanically converted into numbers, which thus typically do not fully represent the respondent's true evaluation. In our experiment, we conducted a color selection test with 462 subjects by testing six c…

Fair Box ordinate transform for forecasts following a multivariate Gaussian law
Monte Carlo techniques are the method of choice for making probabilistic predictions of an outcome in several disciplines. Usually, the aim is to generate calibrated predictions which are statistically indistinguishable from the outcome. Developers and users of such Monte Carlo predictions are interested in evaluating the degree of calibration of the forecasts. Here, we consider predictions of $p$-dimensional outcomes sampling a multivariate Gaussian distribution and apply the Box ordinate tran…

General base change for relative Du Bois complexes
A partial answer is given to a question raised by Kovács and Taji in arxiv:2307.07192, namely that the relative Du Bois complex of a family parametrized by a non-singular curve commutes with base change to a general point on the base. It is also shown that this property usually fails for special points.

Guarding Offices with Maximum Dispersion
We investigate the Dispersive Art Gallery Problem with vertex guards and rectangular visibility ($r$-visibility) for a class of orthogonal polygons that reflect the properties of real-world floor plans: these office-like polygons consist of rectangular rooms and corridors. In the dispersive variant of the Art Gallery Problem, the objective is not to minimize the number of guards but to maximize the minimum geodesic $L_1$-distance between any two guards, called the dispersion distance.

An Ejection Event Captured by VLBI During the Outburst of Swift J1727.8$-$1613
We observed a newly-discovered Galactic black hole X-ray binary Swift J1727.8$-$1613 with the European Very Long Baseline Interferometry Network (EVN) at 5 GHz. The observation was conducted immediately following a radio quenching event detected by the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (VLA). The visibility amplitude evolution over time reveals a large-amplitude radio flare and is consistent with an ejection event. The data can be interpreted either as a stationary component (i.e., the radio core…
