SIGN THE PETITION: PROTECT HUMAN RIGHTS. STOP BILL C-2
Prime Minister Mark Carney ran a campaign on leading Canada through Trump’s tariffs & attacks on sovereignty & a cost-of-living crisis. Instead, his first piece of legislation, Bill C-2, is an attack on migrants & privacy rights straight out of the Trump playbook.
Bill C-2 drastically restricts refugee protection, allows for mass deportations & gives security officials unchecked power to access everyone’s data…

Last night 8 of us got together for Call of Cthulhu. First RPG for one of us, and a couple of us with decades of experience gaming together. Went off without a hitch. Other than my reporter getting killed by a swarm of vermin (one of two deaths).

A table in a darkened room with four pillar candles, assorted character sheets, rules references, letters, maps, dice, cans of beverage, glasses, pretzels, pencils, and a tablet screen stood up to show a map.

HST pre-imaging of a free-floating planet candidate microlensing event
High-cadence microlensing observations uncovered a population of very short-timescale microlensing events, which are believed to be caused by the population of free-floating planets (FFP) roaming the Milky Way. Unfortunately, the light curves of such events are indistinguishable from those caused by wide-orbit planets. To properly differentiate both cases, one needs high-resolution observations that would allow resolving a putative luminous companion to the lens long before or after the event. …

Social Learning with Limited Attention: Negative Reviews Persist under Newest First
We study a model of social learning from reviews where customers are computationally limited and make purchases based on reading only the first few reviews displayed by the platform. Under this limited attention, we establish that the review ordering policy can have a significant impact. In particular, the popular Newest First ordering induces a negative review to persist as the most recent review longer than a positive review. This phenomenon, which we term the Cost of Newest First, can make t…

A young female bear caused a stir after wandering out of the forest and into the leafy suburbs of the Lithuanian capital.
For two days, the brown bear ambled through the neighborhoods of Vilnius,
trotted across highways and explored backyards
— all while being chased by onlookers with smartphones and, eventually, drones.
The government then issued a permit for the bear to be shot and killed.
That did not go down well with Lithuania’s hunters who refused, aware …

Lithuanian hunters refuse government request to shoot a wild bear in the capital
Lithuanian hunters have refused to shoot a wild bear that was spotted roaming around the Lithuanian capital of Vilnius and criticized the government for issuing a permit to kill a member of the protected species. The Lithuanian Association of Hunters and Fishermen says in a statement it is shocked by the decision of the Environment Ministry to shoot the bear. The bear now seems to be out of danger as it was spotted on Wednesday walking through forested areas well outside the city. A government …

A systematic bias in template-based RV extraction algorithms
In this paper we identify and explore a previously unidentified, multi meter-per-second, systematic correlation between time and RVs inferred through TM and LBL methods. We evaluate the influence of the data-driven stellar template in the RV bias and hypothesize on the possible sources of this effect. We first use the s-BART pipeline to extract RVs from three different datasets gathered over four nights of ESPRESSO and HARPS observations. Then, we demonstrate that the effect can be recovered on…
