Presidential commission moves to strip Odesa mayor of Ukrainian citizenship: https://benborges.xyz/2025/10/14/presidential-commission-moves-to-strip.html

Ever since the Supreme Court shattered campaign finance law with its decision in Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission in 2010,
Americans have been told there are only two ways to stop corporate and “dark” money in politics:
Amend the U.S. Constitution
or wait for the court to undo what it has done.
👉That is flat wrong.
Citizens United held that government may not regulate a corporation’s right to spend money independently in elections.
But the …

MEC$^3$O: Multi-Expert Consensus for Code Time Complexity Prediction
Predicting the complexity of source code is essential for software development and algorithm analysis. Recently, Baik et al. (2025) introduced CodeComplex for code time complexity prediction. The paper shows that LLMs without fine-tuning struggle with certain complexity classes. This suggests that no single LLM excels at every class, but rather each model shows advantages in certain classes. We propose MEC$^3$O, a multi-expert consensus system, which extends the multi-agent debate frameworks. M…

Green Grid: Smart Tech Meets E-Waste
Electronic waste (e-waste) is a rapidly growing global problem caused by shorter device lifecycles and rising consumption. India ranks third globally in e-waste generation, producing over 1.7 million tonnes in 2023-24, of which less than half is formally processed. To address this, we propose Green Grid, an integrated AI-powered e-waste management platform combining IoT-enabled smart collection, AI-based device classification, blockchain-based traceability, and gamified citizen engagement. The …

<senior bitch mode>
One very cranky senior citizen. I absolutely hate time changes. Yes, I get an hour extra, but it still is a major PITA. Going around for the old school clocks and changing them. All the phones, tablets and laptops did the change automatically. Even our watches and my blood sugar monitor changed over without a problem.
One alarm clock is semi-fried and it won't go back to showing the time, it insists on playing the radio. You have to press two o…
