It was clear fairly immediately that the political goal of the attacks on September 11th was to undermine the American empire. It would seem that we could put up a banner saying “Mission Accomplished”. https://www.anildash.com/2025/09/11/24-is-after-the-fall/

24 is After the Fall
A blog about making culture. Since 1999.

Writer/professor/activist Lauren Yanks '19 M.Div. recently accompanied a Yale-connected medical mission to Ukraine. Here's a segment about it from Spectrum News in the Hudson Valley! https://spectrumlocalnews.com/nys/hudson-valley/news/2025/08/25/…

I'm not sure if this is going to make a difference ( #LLMs weren't able to read #licenses or terms & conditions before when these were not formalized in a "machine-readable" way (plus, besides licenses we already had the robots.txt declarative files; even if those were not as expressive as this new proposal).
So, is this extra work for web developers and maintainers? Are we going to operate under the new assumption that if we didn't do the work of implementing this then we are granting permission to scrapper bots to steal all our online creations?
Or can this be a net gain for creators in some specific way?

A Brief Note on Complex AdS-Schwarzschild Black Holes
In the context of thermodynamics of asymptotically anti-de Sitter spaces, it is often stated that at very low temperatures, there is only one saddle point available-namely, thermal AdS-and hence this sole saddle dictates the low-temperature behavior. However, AdS-Schwarzschild black holes continue to exist at low temperatures as complex saddle points. We point out that the real part of the on-shell action of these complex black holes is smaller than that of thermal AdS at the lowest temperature…

Asymptotically flat black holes with a singular Cauchy horizon and a spacelike singularity
In our recent work [Van de Moortel, The coexistence of null and spacelike singularities inside spherically symmetric black holes], we analyzed the transition between null and spacelike singularities in spherically symmetric dynamical black holes and demonstrated that the spacelike portion is described by a Kasner metric with positive varying exponents that degenerate to $(1,0,0)$ near the null-spacelike transition. In the present paper, we provide examples of global spacetimes satisfying the as…

Monte Carlo-Type Neural Operator for Differential Equations
The Monte Carlo-type Neural Operator (MCNO) introduces a framework for learning solution operators of one-dimensional partial differential equations (PDEs) by directly learning the kernel function and approximating the associated integral operator using a Monte Carlo-type approach. Unlike Fourier Neural Operators (FNOs), which rely on spectral representations and assume translation-invariant kernels, MCNO makes no such assumptions. The kernel is represented as a learnable tensor over sampled in…

Is star complexity a proxy for information based complexity of graphs?
Information-based complexity (IBC) is a well-defined complexity measure of any object given a description in a language and a classifier that identifies those descriptions with the object. Of course, the exact numerical value will vary according to the descriptive language and classifier, but under certain universality conditions (eg the classifier identifies programs of a universal Turning machine that halt and output the same value), asymptotically, the complexity measure is independent of th…
