Satellite tracking of 12,000 marine animals reveals ocean giants are in trouble
A massive global collaboration has tracked over 12,000 marine animals from whales to turtles to create one of the most detailed movement maps of ocean giants ever assembled. The project, MegaMove, highlights how animal migrations intersect with fishing, shipping, and pollution, revealing alarming gaps in current ocean protections. Even if 30% of the oceans were protected, most critical habitats would still be exposed to threats.

"Vancouver has 22 civic libraries. Victoria has 12. The streets of these two cities, however, have well over 1,000 unincorporated “little libraries”. You’ve seen them, of course. Those quaint little bird-house structures, placed along sidewalks, usually with a glassed-in front to keep the contents safe from the elements. Inside these little boxes there is always the oddest selection of books, and almost always something that will pique your interest. "

The Artificial Intelligence Disclosure (AID) Framework: An Introduction
As the use of Generative Artificial Intelligence tools have grown in higher education and research, there have been increasing calls for transparency and granularity around the use and attribution of the use of these tools. Thus far, this need has been met via the recommended inclusion of a note, with little to no guidance on what the note itself should include. This has been identified as a problem to the use of AI in academic and research contexts. This article introduces The Artificial Intel…

The NetMob25 Dataset: A High-resolution Multi-layered View of Individual Mobility in Greater Paris Region
High-quality mobility data remains scarce despite growing interest from researchers and urban stakeholders in understanding individual-level movement patterns. The Netmob25 Data Challenge addresses this gap by releasing a unique GPS-based mobility dataset derived from the EMG 2023 GNSS-based mobility survey conducted in the Ile-de-France region (Greater Paris area), France. This dataset captures detailed daily mobility over a full week for 3,337 volunteer residents aged 16 to 80, collected betw…

Detailed Time Resolved Spectral and Temporal Investigations of SGR J1550-5418 Bursts Detected with Fermi/Gamma-ray Burst Monitor
We have conducted a time-resolved spectral analysis of magnetar bursts originating from SGR J1550-5418. Our analysis utilizes a two-step methodology for temporal segmentation of the data. We first generated and fitted overlapping time segments. Subsequently, we obtained non-overlapping time segments with varying lengths based on their spectral evolution patterns, employing a machine learning algorithm called k-means clustering. For the fitting process, we employed three distinct models, namely …

Black holes with electroweak hair -- the detailed derivation
We present a very detailed derivation of solutions describing hairy black holes within the gravity-coupled Weinberg-Salam theory, which were previously reported in \href{https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.133.171402}{Phys.Rev.Lett. 133 (2024) 171402}. These black holes support a strong magnetic field that polarizes the electroweak vacuum and creates a condensate of massive fields carrying superconducting currents along the black hole horizon. The currents, in turn, generate a ``corona'' of mag…

For all the German speakers in my network: my research on spatial layouts and communication has been featured in a lovely and detailed article in the weekly German newspaper Die Zeit discussing the manifold relations between architecture and social outcomes, ranging from political coalition negotiations to the mutiny on the Bounty, from team meetings in offices to places for living

Architektur: Wie Architekten Gespräche lenken – und Macht verteilen
Gute Architektur verbindet Menschen, schlechte trennt sie. Wer die Gesetze des Bauens kennt, kann Politiker zusammenbringen – und sogar den Lauf der Geschichte verändern.

Here's an idea: People in tech want better AI criticism? It's all just too $something? I'm willing to take off a month from work to write a whole bunch of detailed structural criticism if the people demanding better, more specific criticism pay my salary for that month.
