The Inside Story of How Gen Z Toppled Nepal’s Leader and Chose a New One on Discord
The revolution started on social media. It ended with protests, violence, and an online poll to pick the new prime minister.

Data potentially accessed by the hack includes things like names, usernames, emails, and the last four digits of credit card numbers.
The unauthorized party also accessed a “small number” of images of government IDs from “users who had appealed an age determination.”
Full credit card numbers and passwords were not impacted by the breach, Discord says.
The company is notifying impacted users now over email.
If your ID might have been accessed, Discord will specify that.…

Debating degrowth: A response to Jason Hickel
We really believe that degrowth is a more complex, substantial and significant concept and movement than its treatment in the Hickel interview. We think that the degrowth movement has a very important role to play in the challenging political context.

Local structural disorder in crystalline materials
Local positional disorder in soft, anharmonic materials has emerged as a central factor in shaping their electronic, vibrational, optical, and transport properties. Viewed mainly as a source of performance degradation, recent theoretical insights reveal that local disorder profoundly influences the electronic structure and phonon dynamics, without inducing deep electronic traps or non-radiative recombination pathways. In this work, we highlight advances in modeling local disorder using polymorp…

Test-Time Anchoring for Discrete Diffusion Posterior Sampling
We study the problem of posterior sampling using pretrained discrete diffusion foundation models, aiming to recover images from noisy measurements without retraining task-specific models. While diffusion models have achieved remarkable success in generative modeling, most advances rely on continuous Gaussian diffusion. In contrast, discrete diffusion offers a unified framework for jointly modeling categorical data such as text and images. Beyond unification, discrete diffusion provides faster i…
