Genndy Tartakovsky's developing a new show 'Heist Safari' that looks pretty great. Loved what he did with Dexter's Lab. This one's about three estranged frog brothers who meet up at their dad's funeral, have to rob a bank to inherit their late dad's fortune, and have issues when they cut side deals with mobsters. Every episode will be executed as just one shot, the events won't be in chronological order, and it'll have an EDM score. Looks & sounds prom…

I never realized that all animals living outside of a water are in a fact a reverse divers and our skin is an air suit holding the sea inside.

This year, there appear to be even more fireworks on my street. Which seems weird given both the tariffs and the fact these are a Chinese invention which are made in China, and the folks setting them off around here are very much ‘America first’.
Because the folks setting them off don’t seem to care about their neighbors nor neighbors’ dogs.

An anomalous particle-exchange mechanism for two isolated Bose gases merged into one
In an isolated ideal Bose system with a fixed energy, the number of microstates depends solely on the configurations of bosons in excited states, implying zero entropy for particles in the ground state. When two such systems merge, the resulting entropy is less than the sum of the individual entropies. This entropy decrease is numerically shown to arise from an effectively but anomalous exchange of particles in excited states, where $\overline{N}!/(\overline{N}_{1}!\overline{N}_{2}!)<1$. Here, …

Real-Time In-Network Machine Learning on P4-Programmable FPGA SmartNICs with Fixed-Point Arithmetic and Taylor
As machine learning (ML) applications become integral to modern network operations, there is an increasing demand for network programmability that enables low-latency ML inference for tasks such as Quality of Service (QoS) prediction and anomaly detection in cybersecurity. ML models provide adaptability through dynamic weight adjustments, making Programming Protocol-independent Packet Processors (P4)-programmable FPGA SmartNICs an ideal platform for investigating In-Network Machine Learning (IN…

Anomalous non-thermal fixed point in a quasi-two-dimensional dipolar Bose gas
The emergence of distinctly sub-diffusive scaling in the vicinity of an anomalous non-thermal fixed point is discussed in a quasi-two-dimensional dipolar Bose gas in the superfluid phase, carrying ensembles of vortices and antivortices with zero net angular momentum. The observed scaling behavior reflects coarsening dynamics driven by the mutual annihilation of vortices and antivortices, with the mean inter-defect distance growing algebraically over time as $\ell_\text{v}(t)\sim t^{\,β}$. A su…

Spatiotemporal hierarchy of thermal avalanches
In amorphous solids, frustrated elastic interactions conspire with thermal noise to trigger anomalously slow sequences of plastic rearrangements, termed "thermal avalanches", which play an important role during creep and glassy relaxations. Here we uncover the complex spatiotemporal structure of thermal avalanches in simulations of a model amorphous solid. We systematically disentangle mechanical and thermal triggering during logarithmic creep, revealing a hierarchy of fast localized cascades l…

Learning From the Past with Cascading Eligibility Traces
Animals often receive information about errors and rewards after a significant delay. For example, there is typically a delay of tens to hundreds of milliseconds between motor actions and visual feedback. The standard approach to handling delays in models of synaptic plasticity is to use eligibility traces. However, standard eligibility traces that decay exponentially mix together any events that happen during the delay, presenting a problem for any credit assignment signal that occurs with a s…
