Situation: There are 13 different bike, transit, and safe streets advocacy groups in SF.
“13?! This is ridiculous! We should make a single group that covers everyone’s priorities!”

Someone is not happy. Needs more #gravy

Two photos of a cat perched on a table next to a menu with some chicken on it. In the first one the cat is happily licking where the chicken should be, but in the second photo, the kitty realizes it is not real chicken. Kitty does not like this realization.

esolangs.org does not have anything called #gravy yet. I'm thinking the Gravy language should be a notation you can "pour on top" of some program in any other language, to make the program better. Sort of like literate programming, but more of a diner aesthetic

Ami·es journalistes : saviez-vous que vous pouvez trahir vos sources par l'utilisation d'une messagerie chiffrée protégeant mal votre graph social (c'est-Š-dire "qui parle Š qui") ?
Avec la complicité des États-Unis (pour Signal et Matrix) ou de la France (pour Olvid), c'est pourtant le cas.
Pour en savoir plus, je donne une conférence sur la protection des métadonnées par les messageries chiffrées Š @…

Metadata Protection in Instant Messaging Applications: a Review PTS2025
This talk covers the obvious issue of long-term identities and the construction of the social graph and how some protections supposed to thwart the social graph recovery are flawed. Some of these attacks are publicly documented and still unmitigated by those affected by them. This talk also dives into less obvious metadata leaks, such as traffic correlation and ciphertext correlation. Finally it also points out that some of the studied instant messaging solutions do not protect all messages …

it’s a lonely free lunch wednesday at the systems lab #alas

An overhead view of a variety of Mediterranean or Middle Eastern-style dishes arranged in aluminum trays on a large conference table. The food appears to include: • Pita bread slices • A creamy orange curry or stew (possibly butter chicken or chicken tikka masala) • A tray of baklava (dessert) • Grilled vegetables with skewered chicken or paneer • Shredded rice pilaf or biryani with saffron and dried fruit • Grilled koobideh or kebab meat • A tray of a saucy spinach and rice dish (possi…
A wider-angle view of the same room, now showing the full table setup. The food is laid out on one side of the long conference table. Most chairs are empty, but one plate has been served and placed on the near end of the table next to a water bottle and plastic utensils. The plate includes pita, salad, a kebab, and vegetables. Large windows line the room, giving it a bright, open feel. The setup suggests a casual group lunch, perhaps for a meeting or team event.

Simple Approximations for General Spanner Problems
Consider a graph with n nodes and m edges, independent edge weights and lengths, and arbitrary distance demands for node pairs. The spanner problem asks for a minimum-weight subgraph that satisfies these demands via sufficiently short paths w.r.t. the edge lengths. For multiplicative alpha-spanners (where demands equal alpha times the original distances) and assuming that each edge's weight equals its length, the simple Greedy heuristic by Althöfer et al. (1993) is known to yield strong soluti…
