Sometimes you have a #dream that leaves you pondering. This time the middle segment involved freeing a certain harmless creature. It wasn't imprisoned in a physical jail but rather barred from leaving by another stronger creature. I've said that I'll keep said guardian busy for half an hour, so the victim could escape. The guardian turned out demonic in nature, and turned into an iron C-shaped bracket that tightened against my right side painfully. So my fight was mostly an attempt to get it off me, or at least stop it from tightening even more.
Since I woke up, I'm wondering if it was just an oddly specific dream, or if my right side actually ached through the night.

Guardian maps for continuous-time systems: A Lie-algebraic approach
Guardian maps are scalar maps that vanish when a matrix or polynomial is on the verge of stability. Several guardian maps have been proposed in the literature for Hurwitz stability based on the Kronecker sum, the second lower Schläflian matrix, and the bialternate sum. It is natural to ask if there is a unifying principle for all these maps. Here, we introduce the Lie-algebraic notion of a guardian representation, and show that all the examples above are instances of this unifying idea. We a…

Microsoft blocks Israel’s use of its technology in mass surveillance of Palestinians | Israel | The Guardian
theguardian.com/world/2025/sep

Equipped with Azure’s near-limitless storage capacity and computing power, Unit 8200 had built an indiscriminate new system allowing its intelligence officers to collect, play back and analyse the content of cellular calls of an entire population. The project was so expansive that, according to sources from Unit 8200 – which is equivalent in its remit to the US National Security Agency – a mantra emerged internally that captured its scale and ambition: “A million calls an hour.”
According to several sources, the enormous repository of intercepted calls – which amounted to as much as 8,000 terabytes of data – was held in a Microsoft datacentre in the Netherlands. Within days of the Guardian publishing the investigation, Unit 8200 appears to have swiftly moved the surveillance data out of the country. According to sources familiar with the huge data transfer outside of the EU country, it occurred in early August. Intelligence sources said Unit 8200 planned to transfer t…

This is a good outcome.
Now the government must give asylum to all likely to get it anyway, allow asylum seekers to do paid work, and advocate positively for their right to come here and seek sanctuary.

Hmm… to be lucky, perhaps, but to be proud of having been born somewhere may well be the problem.
Letter in The Guardian:

Great to see the Saint George's cross flying everywhere. It was first adopted by Richard Lionheart, king of England. During his reign he lived in France, barely visited England and didn't speak a word of English. Saint George himself was a Roman soldier, born in Turkey and martyred for his Christian beliefs. Such multiculturalism makes you proud to be British. Andrew Gould Bosham, West Sussex

This is the very essence of Trumpism:
never let outsiders get too close, or you’ll be repaid in venom.
No hugs, just extraction.
“instead of saying thank you, the snake gave a vicious bite”.
It’s how he sees business, politics and, naturally, immigration.
Trump's recital on White House video is overlaid with images of brown-skinned men in handcuffs getting hauled away

Special relationship? There can be no such thing with a snake like Trump
Keir Starmer has spent the best part of a year cosying up to the US president. It will be no surprise when he gets bitten, says Guardian columnist Aditya Chakrabortty
