The world must reject Russia’s nuclear posturing – but not ignore the danger
In 2014, Putin’s covert operation to seize and then annex Crimea shocked the world.
In 2015, Russia launched a surprise military intervention into Syria.
The following year Putin directed an unprecedented operation to sway the US presidential elections.
He did the same in Europe in 2017.
Then he tried to kill off an enemy by poisoninghim on British soil, attacked the US with cyberwe…

honestly i might just ditch css transitions altogether and do the tweening myself, like a proper game engine (still keeping css transforms though). more control, less frustration. i've wasted too much time on this (it works fine on safari & chrome, acts weird on firefox)

It's our duty to enable the Ukrainian Resistance to repeat precisely this over and over until the day that russia finally understands that there will not be another soviet empire. The reality is that it's inevitable that russia's troops must cease to occupy foreign territory and terrorise civilians – one way or another. No “negotiations” can change that.

Finding Most Shattering Minimum Vertex Cuts of Polylogarithmic Size in Near-Linear Time
We show the first near-linear time randomized algorithms for listing all minimum vertex cuts of polylogarithmic size that separate the graph into at least three connected components (also known as shredders) and for finding the most shattering one, i.e., the one maximizing the number of connected components. Our algorithms break the quadratic time bound by Cheriyan and Thurimella (STOC'96) for both problems that has been unimproved for more than two decades. Our work also removes an important b…

Decisioning Workshop 2023
In a knowledge society, the term knowledge must be considered a core resource for organizations. So, beyond being a medium to progress and to innovate, knowledge is one of our most important resources: something necessary to decide.Organizations that are embracing knowledge retention activities are gaining a competitive advantage. Organizational rearrangements from companies, notably outsourcing, increase a possible loss of knowledge, making knowledge retention an essential need for them. When …

Man who used megaphone to lead attack on police during Capitol riot gets more than 7 years in prison
A Washington state man who used a megaphone to orchestrate a mob’s attack on police officers guarding the U.S. Capitol has been sentenced to more than seven years in prison.

The judge sentenced him to seven years and three months behind bars. Johnatakis represented himself with an attorney on standby. He has repeatedly expressed rhetoric that …
