Bluesky hits 40 million users, introduces 'dislikes' beta | TechCrunch
As users "dislike" posts, the system will learn what sort of content they want to see less of. This will help to inform more than just how content is ranked in feeds, but also reply rankings.

Avant sa rencontre avec Donald Trump, Xi Jinping a opté pour la manière forte
Le président chinois pense avoir appris de ses échecs face à son homologue américain, qu’il retrouvera, jeudi, en Corée du Sud. Il a notamment utilisé les terres rares, indispensables dans les nouvelles technologies, comme puissant levier de négociation.

Attention over Scene Graphs: Indoor Scene Representations Toward CSAI Classification
Indoor scene classification is a critical task in computer vision, with wide-ranging applications that go from robotics to sensitive content analysis, such as child sexual abuse imagery (CSAI) classification. The problem is particularly challenging due to the intricate relationships between objects and complex spatial layouts. In this work, we propose the Attention over Scene Graphs for Sensitive Content Analysis (ASGRA), a novel framework that operates on structured graph representations inste…

Non-Hermitian comb effect in coupled clean and quasiperiodic chains
We study localization properties in a system of non-Hermitian quasiperiodic chain coupled to a uniform chain or clean chain by inter-chain hopping. We find that in the limit of weak inter-chain coupling, such a coupled system exhibits transitions from delocalized to intermediate phase with increase in the non-Hermiticity parameter. However, for stronger inter-chain coupling strengths, the delocalized phase undergoes a transition to localized phase and then to an intermediate phase. Interestingl…

Is there sandbox weirdness going on with :nixos: #nix fixed-output-derivations (i.e. when you specify outputHash) that some tcp connections are disallowed? I can git clone in runCommand, but down the line a 'git annex get' (which internally just downloads another file via http) fails with this weird message 'no such protocol name: tcp'. With `--option sanbox false` everything is fine, …

From space science to dinner plates: Reimagining the future of farming indoors
Extreme weather events, from heavy rainfall to heat waves and droughts, are increasingly threatening crop yields globally, so new solutions are needed for agriculture.

Go with Your Gut: Scaling Confidence for Autoregressive Image Generation
Test-time scaling (TTS) has demonstrated remarkable success in enhancing large language models, yet its application to next-token prediction (NTP) autoregressive (AR) image generation remains largely uncharted. Existing TTS approaches for visual AR (VAR), which rely on frequent partial decoding and external reward models, are ill-suited for NTP-based image generation due to the inherent incompleteness of intermediate decoding results. To bridge this gap, we introduce ScalingAR, the first TTS fr…
