Came home late last night to find a hail storm had passed through our area seemingly just minutes before. The hailstones were the largest I've ever seen so far (~3 cm), but not as large as northern parts of Germany had last night (some tennis ball sized). Shredded tree branches, garden plants/veg destroyed, heaps of ice around the houses, roads steaming...

#LazyWeb I'm looking to host some git repositories in my homelab. I'm tempted to use Forgejo, but it feels overkill for my usecase. I don't need issues, a web based Pull Request workflow, CI, open registration, or any of other other bells and whistles.
All I really want is a web interface to show me the history, branches, tags, and diffs in each commit. All actual …

Capillary self-folding chains

Abstract: Mesoscale self-assembly provides a route toward the design of programmable microsystems. Here, we construct flexible chains of floating monomers whose curved branches impose upward or downward deformations of the liquid interface, corresponding to effective positive or negative capillary charges. These geometrically encoded deformations generate local attractive or repulsive interactions along the chain. By tuning the capillary sequence, we obtain distinct folded configurations, including straight lines, zigzag patterns, and loops. For short chains, folding is largely governed by nearest-neighbor interactions and leads to well-defined structures. As the chain length increases and non-neighboring segments come into proximity and interact, however, the folding landscape becomes increasingly complex, with multiple metastable states whose number grows exponentially with chain length. We map these landscapes numerically and demonstrate experimentally that mechanical agitation allows the chains to transition between metastable configurations. Beyond encoding a target geometry, the capillary sequence therefore controls the complexity of the folding landscape as well as the degeneracy and mutational robustness of folded structures. These results establish capillary chains as a controllable mesoscale platform for investigating how local interaction rules give rise to collective folding and complex sequence-to-structure relationships reminiscent of those encountered in biomolecular systems.

On our hike last Saturday I wanted to get an ipression of the part of the trail - the problem: the original photo just looked bad - chaos, "bad" light, ...
but I liked the structure and so - converted it to monochrome and was quite surprised to be honest!

Zero days since the #Linux #kernel made a security release of all branches, containing exactly one patch, except for 6.12 which was skipped for no clear reason, and there doesn't seem to be anything about that on the ml. And now I'm scratching my head if I should do a backport for #Gentoo, or wait for the release, or perhaps there was a good reason why the patch was added to every other LTS branch but not 6.12…

Digging out some of my old resources to help upskill a colleague and while the git diagrams still make the point I wanted, the branches named "master" make me cringe!

Deformation algorithm: Deforming (2 1)-dimensional integrable systems to higher dimensional ones
Wang Fa-Ren, Jia Man, Lou S Y

Abstract: The deformation algorithm based on conservation laws can lift (1 1)-dimensional integrable systems to higher-dimensional counterparts while preserving Lax integrability, yet its generalization to (2 1)-dimensional models has remained an open problem. This paper establishes a unified deformation framework for two (2 1)-dimensional integrable equations: the anisotropic Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (KP) equation and the isotropic Nizhnik-Novikov-Veselov (NNV) equation. By introducing a set of mutually commuting field-dependent deformation operators, we systematically construct infinite families of ($m 3$)-dimensional integrable KP and NNV hierarchies, derive their closed-form Lax pairs, and rigorously verify integrability via the vanishing commutator condition of Lax operators. For each high-dimensional hierarchy, concrete finite-dimensional master systems are obtained by truncating auxiliary spatial variables: a (3 1)-dimensional KP system and a (4 1)-dimensional generalized NNV system. Further symmetry reductions recover the original (2 1)-dimensional KP and NNV equations, and more importantly produce two distinct Harry-Dym (HD)-type reciprocal integrable systems. The KP reduction yields an anisotropic (2 1)-dimensional HD model, while the NNV reduction generates the first spatially isotropic two-space-dimensional HD system reported so far, filling a notable gap in existing literature. Parallel comparison of the KP and NNV branches reveals that the spatial symmetry of the original two-dimensional parent equation directly governs the symmetry properties of its high-dimensional deformations and HD dual subsystems. Our work not only extends the conservation-law deformation conjecture beyond (1 1)-dimensions to accommodate both strong Lax and weak Lax structures, but also provides a universal route to construct reciprocal links for multi-dimensional integrable systems.

I spend so much time with Claude Code but I am constantly worried about how someone with less experience is supposed to get good outcomes. I'm a VERY experienced developer/maintainer but WTF Claude just flipped the ahead/behind commit count on a list of branches and tried to get me to clean up everything that was up to date. I'd specifically asked for written file report and a count/summary before we started, and It "smelled" wrong when I saw them, but is so easy to miss these things!
