#totp Still sounds fresh to me!

Sonnet 104 - CIV
To me, fair friend, you never can be old,
For as you were when first your eye I ey'd,
Such seems your beauty still. Three winters cold,
Have from the forests shook three summers' pride,
Three beauteous springs to yellow autumn turn'd,
In process of the seasons have I seen,
Three April perfumes in three hot Junes burn'd,
Since first I saw you fresh, which yet are green.
Ah! yet doth beauty like a dial-hand,…

Gnocchi and Peas With Whipped Feta Recipe • 5★ • 35 min (Gift Recipe)
Bright with citrus and mint and sweetened with peas, the colorful dip ties all the ingredients together. Crisp sugar snap peas get a quick toss in the skillet to unlock their sweetness, while peas deliver tiny pops of juiciness. (Frozen peas work just fine, but use fresh if you have them.) Shelf-stable gnocchi are best here, developing a crunchy golden exterior in the skillet, with a center that stays pillowy and chewy. As the seasons change, the sugar snaps can be substituted with fresh tomato…

Evaluation-Recording Contamination in Learned Nano-Quadrotor Dynamics: A Fresh-Seed Audit
David Shulman
https://arxiv.org/abs/2607.18482 https://arxiv.org/pdf/2607.18482 https://arxiv.org/html/2607.18482
arXiv:2607.18482v1 Announce Type: new
Abstract: Learned flight-dynamics models are often trained on short windows extracted from longer recordings. Randomly splitting these windows can place dependent samples from the same physical flight in both training and evaluation sets. We audit this issue using a fixed snapshot of the NanoBench Crazyflie 2.1 dataset. The experiment holds evaluation flights, rollout starts, training-window count, validation data, and optimization budget fixed. In the contaminated protocol, [LeakagePercent] percent of a recording-disjoint training set is replaced with windows from evaluation recordings, while both arms use the same clean validation set. We compare a world-coordinate delta multilayer perceptron with a relative-coordinate control across [NumSeeds] fresh training seeds and [NumEvalFlights] complete evaluation recordings. The primary endpoint is failure-aware position RMSE over 1-second rollouts, analyzed with paired crossed recording-by-seed inference. Contamination lowers apparent world-model error by 12.1 percent, from 0.299 m to 0.262 m, but the predeclared 95 percent confidence interval for contaminated minus disjoint error is -0.0735 to 0.0011 m. Because the interval crosses zero, the confirmatory result is negative. Secondary horizons and the relative-coordinate model show similar trends, but no coordinate-representation interaction is supported. Reliable leakage assessment therefore requires recording-level splits, failure-aware rollouts, replication across fresh seeds, and inference over both recordings and optimization seeds.
