Whoever made reserved keywords escapable in #Swift: I owe you a drink of your choice if we're ever at the same table.
```swift
// …
case hu = "Hungary"
case `is` = "Iceland"
case `in` = "India"
case id = "Indonesia"
// …
```
This would have been a complete disaster of an API otherwise.

Chalk up another big win for the #Windows and #Instagram folks! Bombing innocents is the only way to be truly social!

Enhancing eLoran Timing Accuracy via Machine Learning with Meteorological and Terrain Data
The vulnerabilities of global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) to signal interference have increased the demand for complementary positioning, navigation, and timing (PNT) systems. To address this, South Korea has decided to deploy an enhanced long-range navigation (eLoran) system as a complementary PNT solution. Similar to GNSS, eLoran provides highly accurate timing information, which is essential for applications such as telecommunications, financial systems, and power distribution. Howev…

Estimate Hitting Time by Hitting Probability for Elitist Evolutionary Algorithms
Drift analysis is a powerful tool for analyzing the time complexity of evolutionary algorithms. However, it requires manual construction of drift functions to bound hitting time for each specific algorithm and problem. To address this limitation, general linear drift functions were introduced for elitist evolutionary algorithms. But calculating linear bound coefficients effectively remains a problem. This paper proposes a new method called drift analysis of hitting probability to compute these …

Quasi-1D Coulomb drag between spin-polarized quantum wires
One-dimensional (1D) quantum wires provide a versatile platform for studying strong electron-electron interactions and collective excitations under confinement. Coulomb drag between 1D systems offers a powerful probe of Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid (TLL) physics, with theoretical predictions suggesting distinct power-law in temperature dependencies between the spin-full and the spin-polarized regimes. However, experimental verification has thus far remained limited. Here, we report measurements of…

1/N Ekvivalenttisuudesta eli (tässä tapauksessa) samanarvoisuudesta. Päästöasiat ovat opettaneet ihmisille puhumaan siitä, miten pieni määrä jotain kasvihuonekaasua on vaikutuksiltaan saman suuruinen, ekvivalentti, kuin isompi määrä hiilidioksidia. Ne määrät ovat siis ekvivalentit, ja sille toiselle kaasuulle se määrän vaikutus voidaan normeerata hiilidioksidin saman vaikutuksen vastaavaan arvoon. Tuo helpottaa asioiden vertailua ja ynnäilyä.

Adaptive Accompaniment with ReaLchords
Jamming requires coordination, anticipation, and collaborative creativity between musicians. Current generative models of music produce expressive output but are not able to generate in an \emph{online} manner, meaning simultaneously with other musicians (human or otherwise). We propose ReaLchords, an online generative model for improvising chord accompaniment to user melody. We start with an online model pretrained by maximum likelihood, and use reinforcement learning to finetune the model for…
