More than half of America’s billion-dollar start-ups were founded by at least one immigrant,
and a quarter have a founder who arrived as a student.

Structure-preserving approximation of the non-isothermal Cahn-Hilliard system
We propose and analyze a structure-preserving approximation of the non-isothermal Cahn-Hilliard equation using conforming finite elements for the spatial discretization and a problem-specific mixed explicit-implicit approach for the temporal discretization. To ensure the preservation of structural properties, i.e. conservation of mass and internal energy as well as entropy production, we introduce a suitable variational formulation for the continuous problem, based on the entropy equation. Anal…

Agreed, great series about the enshittification

Two supertankers both capable of hauling about 2 million barrels of crude U-turned in the Strait of Hormuz after US airstrikes on Iran raised the risk of a response that will ensnare commercial shipping in the region.
