Cannot emphasize enough how much we need people with experience as public defenders and civil rights lawyers to run for political office.
At a time of authoritarianism, their skepticism of power is critical.

Large deviations at the edge for 1D gases and tridiagonal random matrices at high temperature
We consider a model for a gas of $N$ confined particles subject to a two-body repulsive interaction, namely the one-dimensional log or Riesz gas. We are interested in the so-called \textit{high temperature} regime, \textit{ie} where the inverse temperature $β_N$ scales as $Nβ_N\rightarrow2P>0$. We establish, in the log case, a large deviation (LD) principle and moderate deviations estimates for the largest particle $x_\mathrm{max}$ when appropriately rescaled . Our result is an extension of […

Functional inference on deviations from General Relativity
Extensions of general relativity often predict modifications to gravitational waveform morphology that depend functionally on source parameters, such as the masses and spins of coalescing black holes. However, current analyses of strong-field gravity lack robust, data-driven methods to infer such functional dependencies. In this work, we introduce GRANITA, a non-perturbative, theory-agnostic framework to characterize parameter-dependent deviations from general relativity using Gaussian process …

Lifespan Pancreas Morphology for Control vs Type 2 Diabetes using AI on Largescale Clinical Imaging
Purpose: Understanding how the pancreas changes is critical for detecting deviations in type 2 diabetes and other pancreatic disease. We measure pancreas size and shape using morphological measurements from ages 0 to 90. Our goals are to 1) identify reliable clinical imaging modalities for AI-based pancreas measurement, 2) establish normative morphological aging trends, and 3) detect potential deviations in type 2 diabetes. Approach: We analyzed a clinically acquired dataset of 2533 patients …

It all fits. Suppose you’re corporate leadership. You’re laying people off / refusing to hire because you have no clue what things will look like even 1 or 2 years in the future, and you are •terrified•.
Meanwhile, your investors, your gullible trend-chasing investors, are already mentally dividing companies into “pre-AI” and “post-AI.” And not only do you have no idea how to be “post-AI,” but you have no idea whether you’ll be solvent next year. What do you tell them?!??
Obviously you tell them you’re not hiring because you’re having such incredible success with AI! Maybe even you’re going to lay off all the senior people! They’ll love that!
Now you’re not failing and flailing — you’re leading the march into the future! Yay!

Good time for Xi to create a crisis around Taiwan.

China sends scores of planes across central line in Taiwan Strait
China has sent 74 warplanes toward Taiwan between late Thursday and early Friday, 61 of which crossed the central line in the Taiwan Strait unofficially dividing the sides. China considers Taiwan its own territory and uses such deployments to advertise its threat to encircle and possibly invade the self-governing island. It wasn't clear why so many planes were scrambled between late Thursday and early Friday, as tabulated by Taiwan's Defense Ministry. The planes were sent in two separate tranch…
