Wnen the Section 8 planning discussion for this scheme was going, they got a lot of stick for interrupting the cycle track at bus stops ("shared space"). But it looks like they're installing floating bus stops after all. Complaining works! https://omaps.app/0tcn8xGO4u/Unknown_P…

A modified Polak-Ribiere-Polyak type conjugate gradient method with two stepsize strategies for vector optimization
In this paper, in order to find critical points of vector-valued functions with respect to the partial order induced by a closed, convex, and pointed cone with nonempty interior, we propose a nonlinear modified Polak-Ribiere-Polyak type conjugate gradient method with a nonnegative conjugate parameter. We show that the search direction in our method satisfies the sufficient descent condition independent of any line search. Furthermore, under mild assumptions, we obtain the results of global conv…

Large-Parameter Asymptotics of Generalized Hasting-McLeod Functions
The generalized Hastings-McLeod solutions to the inhomogeneous Painlevé-II equation arise in multi-critical unitary random matrix ensembles, the chiral two-matrix model for rectangular matrices, non-intersecting squared Bessel paths, and non-intersecting Brownian motions on the circle. We establish the leading-order asymptotic behavior of the generalized Hastings-McLeod functions as the inhomogeneous parameter approaches infinity using the Deift-Zhou nonlinear steepest-descent method for Riema…

"Over the past two decades, hundreds of police officers have preyed on children, while agencies across the country have failed to take steps to prevent these crimes. At least 1,800 state and local police officers were charged with crimes involving child sexual abuse from 2005 through 2022"

Cafe-Mpc: A Cascaded-Fidelity Model Predictive Control Framework with Tuning-Free Whole-Body Control
This work introduces an optimization-based locomotion control framework for on-the-fly synthesis of complex dynamic maneuvers. At the core of the proposed framework is a cascaded-fidelity model predictive controller (Cafe-Mpc). Cafe-Mpc strategically relaxes the planning problem along the prediction horizon (i.e., with descending model fidelity, increasingly coarse time steps, and relaxed constraints) for computational and performance gains. This problem is numerically solved with an efficient …

If something is wrong on the Internet, and you are the one who wrote it, you shall correct yourself. So hereby I do that: yesterday (May 12th) I claimed that 16 years ago the Debian OpenSSL bug advisory was published. That was wrong. It was today 16 years ago (May 13th). In case you wonder why, it was a simple mistake, not intentional. I must've looked it up and misremembered it when creating the webpage.

16 years of CVE-2008-0166 - Debian OpenSSL Bug
Many DKIM setups used cryptographic keys vulnerable to the 2008 Debian OpenSSL Bug (CVE-2008-0166) in 2024.

5 Year Update to the Next Steps in Quantum Computing
It has been 5 years since the Computing Community Consortium (CCC) Workshop on Next Steps in Quantum Computing, and significant progress has been made in closing the gap between useful quantum algorithms and quantum hardware. Yet much remains to be done, in particular in terms of mitigating errors and moving towards error-corrected machines. As we begin to transition from the Noisy-Intermediate Scale Quantum (NISQ) era to a future of fault-tolerant machines, now is an opportune time to reflect …
