As President Macron walked down the US street onlookers smiled and even took selfies with him; many of them happy to experience seeing a real president in the United States after months of the demonic autocratic clown show emanating out of the White House.

Braiding of dynamical eigenvalues of Hermitian bosonic Kitaev chains
In quantum mechanics, observables correspond to Hermitian operators, and the spectra are restricted to be real. However, the dynamics of the underlying fields may allow complex eigenvalues and therefore create the possibility of braiding structures. Here we study the braiding of dynamical eigenvalues in quantum systems by considering Hermitian bosonic Kitaev chains with multiple bands. The dynamics of the quantum fields in these systems are described by their dynamic matrices, which have comple…

We have a game when we cook something nice of estimating what it would cost if eating out (not that our sometimes wonderful creations would be available).
So we keep finding (on occasional forays out) our prices are too low. E.g. City centre, for 2: 2 plates of indifferent ravioli, a bowl of olives and 2 glasses of wine pre-theatre came to more than £80!

I am all for human-made podcasts and they will never disappear but still this app is a nice demonstrator about the added value AI podcasts can have, I listen to it now and then.

CBS has been converted from a journalistic organization into a propaganda mill. Sad.

Residual Off-Policy RL for Finetuning Behavior Cloning Policies
Recent advances in behavior cloning (BC) have enabled impressive visuomotor control policies. However, these approaches are limited by the quality of human demonstrations, the manual effort required for data collection, and the diminishing returns from increasing offline data. In comparison, reinforcement learning (RL) trains an agent through autonomous interaction with the environment and has shown remarkable success in various domains. Still, training RL policies directly on real-world robots…
