Dismantling the sawmill motor to investigate an ignition failure. Changing the spark plug didn't help. It could be the HT lead but my local small engine guru says probably the coil.
Getting to the coil requires dismantling a whole lot of stuff...

Motor with the recoil starter removed. To the left of the motor is the carburettor, below which is a red lever which operates both the fuel tap and the stop switch, which operates by shorting the coil.

Unfortunately the coil itself is inside the black cover, roughly behind the red lever...

Detail removing the carburettor, so that I remember how the return spring reconnects.

To remove the black cover, I had to take off the air cleaner, the carburettor, the exhaust, a heat shield, and loosen the fuel tank.

I've only lost one bolt down inside the motor so far!

In this picture the coil is visible just inside the opened black cover.

Can LLMs Generate High-Quality Test Cases for Algorithm Problems? TestCase-Eval: A Systematic Evaluation of Fault Coverage and Exposure
We introduce TestCase-Eval, a new benchmark for systematic evaluation of LLMs in test-case generation. TestCase-Eval includes 500 algorithm problems and 100,000 human-crafted solutions from the Codeforces platform. It focuses on two pivotal tasks: (1) Fault Coverage, which measures how well LLM-generated test sets probe diverse input scenarios and cover a wide range of potential failure modes. (2) Fault Exposure, which evaluates whether LLMs can craft a tailored test input that reveals a specif…

Layered tree-independence number and clique-based separators
Motivated by a question of Galby, Munaro, and Yang (SoCG 2023) asking whether every graph class of bounded layered tree-independence number admits clique-based separators of sublinear weight, we investigate relations between layered tree-independence number, weight of clique-based separators, clique cover degeneracy and independence degeneracy. In particular, we provide a number of results bounding these parameters on geometric intersection graphs. For example, we show that the layered tree-ind…

The multinomial dimer model
An $N$-dimer cover of a graph is a collection of edges (with multiplicity) such that each vertex is contained in exactly $N$ edges in the collection. The multinomial dimer model is a natural probability measure on $N$-dimer covers. We study the behavior of these measures on periodic bipartite graphs in ${\mathbb R}^d$, in the scaling limit as the multiplicity $N$ and then the size of the graph go to infinity. In this iterated limit, we prove a large deviation principle, where the rate functio…

We see cops going crazy.
There will be lawsuits.
Cops and the places that hire them will incur legal costs and even higher payouts for damages.
This is likely to force cities to raise taxes to cover those costs or, more likely, to cover the massive increase in insurance premiums that cities will have to pay in the future.
Of course, ultimately it will be you and me - taxpayers - who foot these bills for the insane excesses of cops.

This result was generalized by Dau, Milenkovic, and Puleo, who showed that at most $\lfloor \frac n 3 \rfloor \lfloor \frac {n+1} 3 \rfloor \lfloor \frac {n+2} 3 \rfloor$ cliques are needed to cover all triangles in any $n$-vertex graph $G$, and the bound is best possible as witnessed by the b…

We introduce the notion of a combinatorial $n$-od cover, for $n \geq 3$, which is a tool that may be used to show that certain continua embedded in the plane are not simple $n$-od-like. Using this tool, we generalize a classic example of Ingram, and give a construction, for each $n \geq 3$, of an indecomposable plane continuum which is simple $(n+1)$-od-like but not simple $n$-od-like, and such that each non-degenerate proper subcontinuum is an arc.

The background is softly blurred green and blue, focusing attention on the spider’s detailed features. The image shows the spider’s beauty up close without being threaten…

The photograph shows a section of the wrecked RMS Titanic on the ocean floor, focusing on rusted and corroded railings and deck structures. Marine growth like sea anemones, sponges, and small white invertebrates cover the metal, creating a textured surface in rusty orange, brown, and grey-white tones. The railing is twisted and broken, with a dark sea fan-like organism attached.
