Headway management is a net good, but it's no fun being on the bus that's being slowed down to maintain headway. You've got places to be and that bus is draaaagging, missing every light on purpose.

Searching for sub-TeV IceCube neutrinos correlated to sub-threshold GW events
The IceCube Neutrino Observatory is active in multi-messenger follow-ups of Gravitational Wave (GW) events. Since the release of the Gravitational Wave Transient Catalogue (GWTC)-2.1 by the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA (LVK) collaboration, sub-threshold GW candidates have been made publicly available. However, they were not followed up in real-time to search for neutrino counterparts. For a deeper understanding of these sub-threshold candidates, archival searches are essential. Finding evidence for a neutr…

I had my browser set to autotranslate, so I read this piece in English (although ironically I can read German too, but perhaps not well on this topic), but if you don't have this feature, here's an English language piece on the hack.

Honey bees remove 80% of pollen—leaving native bees with nothing
Feral honey bees, once celebrated for their agricultural value, are now threatening native ecosystems in Southern California by monopolizing pollen sources and overwhelming native pollinators. A new study reveals they remove up to 80% of pollen in a single day, severely disrupting food sources for over 700 species of native bees. Despite their benefits to agriculture, these invasive bees dominate nearly all bee biomass in the region and even produce lower-quality offspring when pollinating nati…

How to build a copy-to-clipboard HTML Web Component
Yesterday, we looked at how to copy items to a user’s clipboard with JavaScriprt. Today, we’re going to turn that into an HTML Web Component. Let’s dig in! The Custom Element For this Web Component, let’s use a element. With the HTML Web Component approach, we start with HTML and enhance it rather than rendering all the things with JavaScript. Let’s add a with our desired text inside the custom element.

Intelligent System of Emergent Knowledge: A Coordination Fabric for Billions of Minds
The Intelligent System of Emergent Knowledge (ISEK) establishes a decentralized network where human and artificial intelligence agents collaborate as peers, forming a self-organizing cognitive ecosystem. Built on Web3 infrastructure, ISEK combines three fundamental principles: (1) a decentralized multi-agent architecture resistant to censorship, (2) symbiotic AI-human collaboration with equal participation rights, and (3) resilient self-adaptation through distributed consensus mechanisms. The…

Calibration of Quantum Devices via Robust Statistical Methods
Bayesian inference is a widely used technique for real-time characterization of quantum systems. It excels in experimental characterization in the low data regime, and when the measurements have degrees of freedom. A decisive factor for its performance is the numerical representation of the Bayesian probability distributions. In this work, we explore advanced statistical methods for this purpose, and numerically analyze their performance against the state-of-the-art in quantum parameter learnin…
