okay, I think I largely agree with #PodSaveAmerica about #palestine / #biden - like...
dataset:
1. (several months, years) "we won't even say we'll condition it, we'll ask them in private, our support is iron clad" -> zero change in gaza
2. one phone call where "if you don't change we might have to change 1" -> israel changes under the slightest hint of pressure** *
*the aid has to continue flowing for the change to be considered effective
**if israel doesn't change their assault on civilians, we'll need the administration to follow through AND CONDITION aid. otherwise item 2 backfires.
it's almost as if leverage works?

Dallas Cowboys Looking To Poach Packers’ Star Running Back https://www.yardbarker.com/nfl/articles/dallas_cowboys_looking_to_poach_packers_star_running_back/s1_17150_40087221

Dallas Cowboys Looking To Poach Packers’ Star Running Back
The Dallas Cowboys might find themselves in a fortunate position if the Green Bay Packers decide to part ways with Aaron Jones this NFL offseason, their standout running back, due to financial constraints. The Packers, who are currently struggling with salary cap issues, have been attempting to renegotiate Jones’s salary to a lower figure for the second consecutive year. Failure to agree may lead the Packers to release Jones. This potential move could open a golden opportunity for the Cowboys…

AFC team reportedly considering Justin Fields trade
The Justin Fields trade saga is anything but finished at this point, despite the Atlanta Falcons landing Kirk Cousins on a massive deal and the Pittsburgh Steelers expected to add Russell Wilson to the roster. These two teams were considered serious candidates to acquire Fields and now are off the board for the young quarterback. That said, another team could make a surprise run for the former No. 11 overall pick in the NFL Draft. According to Vic Tafur of The Athletic, the Las Vegas Raiders ar…

Someone posted about how AI art seems “soulless” perhaps because it doesn’t do anything to help you connect with the person/artist who created it. I think I agree with that view. As an artist I crave that connection with people... I sold a bunch of prints last week and it was amazing having someone see something I created and having some feeling of liking it because we have some shared experience and that is the connection thing. More of that please.

Population Protocols for Exact Plurality Consensus -- How a small chance of failure helps to eliminate insignificant opinions
We consider the \emph{exact plurality consensus} problem for \emph{population protocols}. Here, $n$ anonymous agents start each with one of $k$ opinions. Their goal is to agree on the initially most frequent opinion (the \emph{plurality opinion}) via random, pairwise interactions. The case of $k = 2$ opinions is known as the \emph{majority problem}. Recent breakthroughs led to an always correct, exact majority population protocol that is both time- and space-optimal, needing $O(\log n)$ states …

Novel first-order phase transition and critical points in SU(3) Yang-Mills theory with spatial compactification
We investigate the thermodynamics and phase structure of $SU(3)$ Yang-Mills theory on $\mathbb{T}^2\times\mathbb{R}^2$ in Euclidean spacetime in an effective-model approach. The model incorporates two Polyakov loops along two compactified directions as dynamical variables, and is constructed to reproduce thermodynamics on $\mathbb{T}^2\times\mathbb{R}^2$ measured on the lattice. The model analysis indicates the existence of a novel first-order phase transition on $\mathbb{T}^2\times\mathbb{R}^2…

Intrinsic mirror symmetry and Frobenius structure theorem via Gromov-Witten theory of root stacks
Using recent results of Battistella, Nabijou, Ranganathan and the author, we compare candidate mirror algebras associated with certain log Calabi-Yau pairs constructed by Gross-Siebert using log Gromov-Witten theory and Tseng-You using orbifold Gromov- Witten theory of root stacks. Although the structure constants used to defined these mirror algebras do not typically agree, we show that any given structure constant involved in the construction the algebra of Gross and Siebert can be computed i…

EMF Mitigation via 5G and 6G MAC Scheduling
High antenna directivity allows for high throughput transmission but also increases the exposure to electromagnetic field (EMF) of the end-users. Health regulations impose limitations on the incident power density, that generate a negative impact on network performance. In this work we focus at the slot-by-slot operations of a cellular Medium Access Control (MAC) scheduler to constrain the short-term EMF exposure upon real-time resource allocation, minimizing the impacts on network performance.…
