Measurement of the longitudinal flow-plane decorrelation using multi-plane cumulants in sqrt(s_NN) = 200 GeV Au+Au, Ru+Ru, and Zr+Zr collisions
Measurements of the variation of anisotropic flow-plane angles (Psi_n) with rapidity, commonly known as flow-plane decorrelation, provide important insights into the initial conditions of the matter produced in heavy-ion collisions. In this paper, using data collected by the STAR experiment, we report the first measurement of the four-plane cumulant observable T_n{ba;dc} = <>, where superscripts a, b, c, and d denote sequential regions in pse…

Es muy gracioso el tema de los proyectos que estš desarrollando un LLM y la gente se dedica sólo a revisar el código.
Yo ya llevo años en temas de QA de software y he visto algunos proyectos que son meros recubrimientos de otros proyectos que nadie se atreve a eliminar o mantener porque nadie tiene el conocimiento para hacerlo. Con eso se genera una deuda técnica brutal y una dependencia por una caja negra que nadie sabe cómo funciona pero "virgencita, que me quede como estoy&quot…

Kaum Hoffnung auf Durchbruch bei möglichen Gesprächen
UN-Spitzendiplomatin Rosemary DiCarlo hat nach den jüngsten russischen Angriffen auf die Ukraine geringe Erwartungen an die möglichen neuen direkten Gespräche zwischen den Kriegsparteien in Istanbul. Die Hoffnung, dass sich Vertreter Kiews und Moskaus bei den am Montag anvisierten Gesprächen "hinsetzen und verhandeln" bestehe zwar, sie sei aber "sehr gering". Noch im verga…

Ukraine-Liveblog: ++ UN: Kaum Hoffnung auf Durchbruch bei Verhandlungen ++
Angesichts der jüngsten Luftangriffe haben die UN nur geringe Erwartungen an mögliche Gespräche zwischen Russland und der Ukraine. Beide Seiten melden neue Drohnenangriffe auf zivile Einrichtungen.

Speeding up Model Loading with fastsafetensors
The rapid increases in model parameter sizes introduces new challenges in pre-trained model loading. Currently, machine learning code often deserializes each parameter as a tensor object in host memory before copying it to device memory. We found that this approach underutilized storage throughput and significantly slowed down loading large models with a widely-used model file formats, safetensors. In this work, we present fastsafetensors, a Python library designed to optimize the deserializati…

Setting a caged animal free is good for your karma.
That's why you can find cages filled with little birds for sale at the bigger Buddhist temples here in Saigon.
To sell them, you'll have to catch them first. So, in many trees lining a canal here, you'll hear birds chirping away.
Or is it the mp3 player you hear?
On the left you see a small cage, filled with birds that were lured in there by the mp3 player (in a little plastic bag) on the right of the photo. Difficult to spot, but you'll get there.
During the week cages are picked up and rotated out for empty ones.

Saigon still, even as a megapole, has some almost countryside like areas. But the skyscrapers are rolling in.
On the right hand side you see a glimpse of the Zoo, opened to the public in 1869, making it one of the oldest ones in the world.

After 1975 especially the DDR came to help the Vietnamese with the construction of, mainly concrete, apartments. They still exist today and you can find them scattered all over Saigon.
