Vote Left Transfer Left.
Having a cup of tea and a chat together to see how we can continue collaboration for the Galway West By-election like we did on Catherine Connolly's presidential election.
The momentum built during Catherine's campaign will live on. We must keep this as a left seat. And with a Vote Left Transfer Left campaign, we think that can be a reality.

6 candidates from the Galway West by-election sitting down at a table together. From left to right, Mark Lohan (SF), Míde Níc Fhionnlaoich (SocDems), Niall Murphy (Greens), Denman Rooke (PBP), Sheila Garrity (Ind), Helen Ogbu (Lab).

Roofers Repair 78-year-old Widower’s Roof for Free After Scammers Left Him with a Big Hole goodnewsnetwork.org/roofers-re

The death of a nearly blind refugee from Myanmar who was found on a Buffalo street in February
— five days after Border Patrol agents left him at a doughnut shop
— has been ruled a #homicide, authorities said Wednesday.
The Erie County Medical Examiner's Office didn't reach any conclusions about responsibility for
Nurul Amin Shah Alam's death,

Snow surveys taking place across the American west this week are offering a grim prognosis,

Experts warned that even as the heat begins to subside, the stunning pace of melt-off over the past month has left key basins in uncharted territory for the dry seasons ahead.
Though there’s still potential for more snow in the forecast, experts said it wi…

Starting a day with severe depression is a matter of looking at a pile of problems all of which seem insuperable, picking one, breaking it into smaller problems which still seem insuperable, tackling them one by one slowly. In the sure and certain knowledge that the problem probably really was insuperable and sooner or later you will be stopped by a subtask you cannot complete... And that will have to be left as an insuperable problem for the next day. Rinse and repeat.

Speedability of computably approximable reals and their approximations
George Barmpalias, Nan Fang, Wolfgang Merkle, Ivan Titov

arXiv:2603.26484v1 Announce Type: new
Abstract: An approximation of a real is a sequence of rational numbers that converges to the real. An approximation is left-c.e. if it is computable and nondecreasing and is d.c.e. if it is computable and has bounded variation. A real is computably approximable if it has some computable approximation, and left-c.e. and d.c.e. reals are defined accordingly.
An approximation $\{a_s\}_{s \in \omega}$ is speedable if there exists a nondecreasing computable function $f$ such that the approximation $\{a_{f(s)}\}_{s \in \omega}$ converges in a certain formal sense faster than $\{a_s\}_{s \in \omega}$. This leads to various notions of speedability for reals, e.g., one may require for a computably approximable real that either all or some of its approximations of a specific type are speedable.
Merkle and Titov established the equivalence of several speedability notions for left-c.e. reals that are defined in terms of left-c.e. approximations. We extend these results to d.c.e. reals and d.c.e. approximations, and we prove that in this setting, being speedable is equivalent to not being Martin-L\"{o}f random. Finally, we demonstrate that every computably approximable real has a computable approximation that is speedable.

I'd forgotten Slow Streets used to have not just the "local traffic only" sign, but "road closed to through traffic" as well. Both gone now. Slow Streets got so watered down. (2022 photo)

Tree-lined residential street with a row of three posts at the entrance, extending from the right side about 1/3 across the roadway. From left to right, a flex post, a "local traffic only" sign with pedestrian and bicycle icons against a bright yellow background, and a "Slow Streets" sign with icons for various types of pedestrians and nonmotorized wheeled implements. On the sidewalk, above a diamond sign warning of speed humps ahead, a square sign with a white background says "road closed to t…

A black-and-white photograph of a park or natural area. The scene features a dirt path flanked by bare trees and bushes. In the distance, a small bridge crosses over a narrow stream or ditch. The landscape is open, with patches of grass and shrubs, and the trees are leafless, suggesting it may be autumn or winter.

The primary message is written centrally in pink block letters across two lines, reading "IM HERZEN BARFUß!" In the top left corner, there is a large, multicolored stylized chalk drawing of a lotus flower in teal, pink, and yellow. To the left of the text, a pair of worn brown leather strap sandals are placed on the paver. On the right, a pair of bare feet, appearing tan, are planted firmly …

In a pair of rulings yesterday, a federal judge dealt two blows to Trump’s stewardship of the Kennedy Center, which he took over last year:
U.S. District Judge Christopher Cooper ordered the removal within two weeks of Trump’s name from the institution,
which Congress established as a living memorial to President John F. Kennedy in 1964,
and he partially granted a preliminary injunction, saying that the center had to halt plans to close.

Nice day in the #OakWoodlands of Golden Gate Park where along with oaks I saw bush monkeyflower, California sagebrush, hummingbird sage, coast buckwheat, beach strawberry, common yarrow, Hooker's evening primrose, and even a little rooreh by the path.

Various shrubs and herbs, including bush monkeyflower, also known as sticky monkeyflower, with its characteristic light-orange trumpet-like flowers, said to resemble a monkey's face. In the foreground, an herb, coast buckwheat, with white flower clusters, and deep green leaves belonging to coast strawberry creep down a small stone.
Hooker's evening primrose plants, tall herbs with big yellow flowers. Oaks behind them.
Common yarrow (herb with white flower clusters), orange California poppies that have closed up for the evening, and a hummingbird sage next to the poppies. The area is mulched and has teal flags to indicate plantings.
Rooreh, also called miner's lettuce, a small stout plant with wide leaves shaped like satellite dishes, to the left of a wooden step on a trail.

House and Senate Republicans have identified the enemy

A meltdown in relations between the two G.O.P.-led chambers caused the embarrassing collapse on Friday of a Senate-passed proposal to reopen the Department of Homeland Security before lawmakers raced out of town on a two-week recess.
It left no clear path for resolving the crisis that has led to airport chaos and workers without paychecks.

Hawaii is coming to grips with the extensive damage left by the worst flooding the islands have seen in more than 20 years.
Over the weekend, heavy rains fell on soil already saturated by downpours from a winter storm a week ago,
forcing thousands on the North Shore of Oahu to evacuate before more evacuations for parts of the island of Maui.
The rains lifted houses and cars, inundated farms, swept through grocery stores and left a thick layer of mud in streets, homes and ga…
