Den allra värsta fasen av svält råder i Gaza stad och kringliggande områden, slår FN-stödda IPC fast.

FN-stödda IPC: Katastrofal svält råder i Gaza stad
Den allra värsta fasen av svält råder i Gaza stad och kringliggande områden, slår FN-stödda IPC fast i en ny rapport.

11.23 Uhr:
Die IPC-Initiative verkündet: Die notwendigen Kriterien für die Ausrufung einer Hungersnot in Gaza sind erfüllt.
12.40 Uhr:
Die Regierung Netanjahu behauptet:
Es gibt keine Hungersnot in Israel, das ist alles Propaganda.
Derweil verzweifeln die Menschen über die Angriffe und den Hunger und die Sorge um ihre Angehörigen,
welche die Hamas
und Netanjahu über sie gebracht haben.
Ein Spiel, das nur Verlierer hervorbringt.

Sparse, Geometry- and Material-Aware Bases for Multilevel Elastodynamic Simulation
We present a multi-level elastodynamics timestep solver for accelerating incremental potential contact (IPC) simulations. Our method retains the robustness of gold standard IPC in the face of intricate geometry, complex heterogeneous material distributions and high resolution input data without sacrificing visual fidelity (per-timestep relative displacement error of $\approx1\%$). The success of our method is enabled by a novel, sparse, geometry- and material-aware basis construction method whi…

Fast and Optimal Incremental Parametric Procedure for the Densest Subgraph Problem: An Experimental Study
The Densest Subgraph Problem (DSP) is widely used to identify community structures and patterns in networks such as bioinformatics and social networks. While solvable in polynomial time, traditional exact algorithms face computational and scalability limitations, leading to the adoption of faster, but non-optimal, heuristic methods. This work presents the first experimental study of the recently devised Incremental Parametric Cut (IPC) algorithm, which is an exact method for DSP and other "mono…

Euclid: Methodology for derivation of IPC-corrected conversion gain of nonlinear CMOS APS
We introduce a fast method to measure the conversion gain in Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductors (CMOS) Active Pixel Sensors (APS), which accounts for nonlinearity and interpixel capacitance (IPC). The standard 'mean-variance' method is biased because it assumes pixel values depend linearly on signal, and existing methods to correct for nonlinearity are still introducing significant biases. While current IPC correction methods are prohibitively slow for a per-pixel application, our new met…

Structural Completeness in bi-IPC

Structural Completeness in bi-IPC
In this note we show that no extension of bi-intuitionistic logic, except for classical logic, is structurally complete; indeed, none of them are passively structurally complete. A direct proof of active structural completeness is given for some simple systems.

listening to colleagues try to talk through the logic of "agentic" systems feels like they're just now discovering/reinventing multithreading, message-passing, and IPC
...except that every single component is stochastically noisy and fundamentally not unit-testable

@… wanted to sanity check something here.
The H7 series UFBGA176 25 package is 0.65mm pitch, 0.29mm diameter solder balls. Their recommended pad diameter is 0.3mm which is odd, per IPC I think you'd normally want an 0.25mm land.
But where things get weird is the 0.8mm TFBGA240 25. It's 0.4mm diameter balls, so I would expect 0.3mm lands but…

CrossPL: Evaluating Large Language Models on Cross Programming Language Code Generation
As large language models (LLMs) become increasingly embedded in software engineering workflows, a critical capability remains underexplored: generating correct code that enables cross-programming-language (CPL) interoperability. This skill is essential for building complex systems that integrate components written in multiple languages via mechanisms like inter-process communication (IPC). To bridge this gap, we present CrossPL, the first benchmark designed to systematically evaluate LLMs' abil…

Högsta nivån av svält i Gaza – Tess från Unicef på plats: Värsta jag har sett
Över en halv miljon människor i Gaza är drabbade av den högsta nivån av svält, visar IPC:s nya rapport. Israel kallar rapporten för en lögn. Men läget kan snarare vara ännu värre, enligt Tess Ingram, talesperson för Unicef, som är på plats i Gaza. – Situationen här är så kritisk. Det är svårt att omvandla det i data och ord, säger hon.
