Airbnb is banning indoor security cameras
Airbnb will no longer let hosts install security cameras inside their rentals and added new rules for outdoor cams. The change goes into effect on April 30th.

AC-EVAL: Evaluating Ancient Chinese Language Understanding in Large Language Models
Given the importance of ancient Chinese in capturing the essence of rich historical and cultural heritage, the rapid advancements in Large Language Models (LLMs) necessitate benchmarks that can effectively evaluate their understanding of ancient contexts. To meet this need, we present AC-EVAL, an innovative benchmark designed to assess the advanced knowledge and reasoning capabilities of LLMs within the context of ancient Chinese. AC-EVAL is structured across three levels of difficulty reflecti…

QED Effects on Kerr-Newman Black Hole Shadows
Incorporating first-order QED effects, we explore the shadows of Kerr-Newman black holes with a magnetic charge through the numerical backward ray-tracing method. Our investigation accounts for both the direct influence of the electromagnetic field on light rays and the distortion of the background spacetime metric due to QED corrections. We notice that the area of the shadow increases with the QED effect, mainly due to the fact that the photons move more slowly in the effective medium and beco…

The Inevitability of the Pendulum Effect
In the real world, things never go in straight lines or predictable curves. The things we call trends are actually a saw tooth profile of change, reaction and upheaval. If you trace the path, you’l…

Series D, Episode 10 - Gold
KEILLER: At the mine on Zerok, they process the gold. They change its atomic constitution. It turns black. And it's useless until it's reprocessed, and that can't happen unless you know the computer code that was used on Zerok the day it was processed. Zerok won't release that code until the gold is in the hands of the Federation.
TARRANT: So, if we could steal it, what use is black gold to us?

Baryon junction effects on charmonium production in pp and pPb collisions
In this work we study the effects of the proton and $Pb$ internal structure on charmonium production at high multiplicities. To do this, we assume that the nucleon has an Y shape, which means that the effective quarks (quarks + antiquarks + gluons) are in the extremities of the Y, connected by gluon lines. Since the quarks are in the periphery and the gluons are in the center, as $pp$ collisions go from peripheral to more central and then to ultra-central collisions, the interactions change fro…
