@… @… great find!
His obituary to Nixon often reminds me Trump:

Hunter S. Thompson eulogizes Richard M. Nixon (1994): “He Was a Crook.”
Arguably, the finest political obituary in American history. A Twitter friend linked to it recently, remarking that he rereads the piece every few months. It's a sign that I should, [...]

Nixon tried using IEEPA's predecessor law to impose 10% across the board tariffs, too. He did not prevail.

I’m Richard M. Nixon was the most corrupt President we’d ever had years old.

Weird how Fat Nixon's dictatorial extremism suddenly surged in the last month, hmm?
Almost as if he's on a clock knowing JD Vance doesn't have the same hold on MAGA that he does.

As the Watergate revelations piled high, many Republicans abandoned Nixon. In Minnesota, Republicans were so embarrassed by the criminality they rebranded as the "Independent Republican Party."
When will we see today's Republicans stand up for the Constitution and the rule of law?

Let's be clear about it: this (📸 r.) is not gonna happen any time soon for Trump.

$k$-fold circuits and coning in rigidity matroids
In 1980 Lovász introduced the concept of a double circuit in a matroid. The 2nd, 3rd and 4th authors recently generalised this notion to $k$-fold circuits (for any natural number $k$) and proved foundational results about these $k$-fold circuits. In this article we use $k$-fold circuits to derive new results on the generic $d$-dimensional rigidity matroid $\mathcal{R}_d$. These results include analysing 2-sums, showing sufficient conditions for the $k$-fold circuit property to hold for $k$-fol…

Not All Sub-Neptune Exoplanets Have Magma Oceans
The evolution and structure of sub-Neptunes may be strongly influenced by interactions between the outer gaseous envelope of the planet and a surface magma ocean. However, given the wide variety of permissible interior structures of these planets, it is unclear whether conditions at the envelope-mantle boundary will always permit a molten silicate layer, or whether some sub-Neptunes might instead host a solid silicate surface. In this work, we use internal structure modeling to perform an exten…

Uspol, genocide
In case you're wondering whether "political violence" is escalating in the U.S.A. right now, of *course* it is as we move into an era of concentration campus and domestic military deployments. But both domestic genocides and purges as well as political violence targeted at individual prominent figures has been a *constant* throughout American history, from gun duels fought between political rivals to massacres of Native Americans in order to steal their land, to pogroms against Catholics, to literal wars on local Black success and political participation, all dating back before the American Revolution to the beginning of colonization. Thanks to Wikipedia, here's a *small sampling* where I attempted to whittle things down to about one event per decade before recent times.

Read the Room or Lead the Room: Understanding Socio-Cognitive Dynamics in Human-AI Teaming
Research on Collaborative Problem Solving (CPS) has traditionally examined how humans rely on one another cognitively and socially to accomplish tasks together. With the rapid advancement of AI and large language models, however, a new question emerge: what happens to team dynamics when one of the "teammates" is not human? In this study, we investigate how the integration of an AI teammate -- a fully autonomous GPT-4 agent with social, cognitive, and affective capabilities -- shapes the socio-c…

Adaptive and Regime-Aware RL for Portfolio Optimization
This study proposes a regime-aware reinforcement learning framework for long-horizon portfolio optimization. Moving beyond traditional feedforward and GARCH-based models, we design realistic environments where agents dynamically reallocate capital in response to latent macroeconomic regime shifts. Agents receive hybrid observations and are trained using constrained reward functions that incorporate volatility penalties, capital resets, and tail-risk shocks. We benchmark multiple architectures, …

Locating Centers of Clusters of Galaxies with Quadruple Images: Witt's Hyperbola and a New Figure of Merit
For any elliptical potential with an external parallel shear, Witt has proven that the gravitational center lies on a rectangular hyperbola derived from the image positions of a single quadruply lensed object. Moreover, it is predicted that for an isothermal elliptical potential the source position both lies on Witt's Hyperbola and coincides with the center of Wynne's Ellipse (fitted through the four images). Thus, by fitting Witt's Hyperbolae to several quartets of images - ten are known in Ab…

Unusual magnetic order in Eu$_{10}$Hg$_{55}$
In solid-state compounds, the valence of europium can sometimes be mixed -- which is especially favored in structures with several positions for the europium atoms. In this work, we study the Eu-based intermetallic noncentrosymmetric system Eu$_{10}$Hg$_{55}$ which has 65 atoms per unit cell and 4 distinct crystallographic positions for europium and 17 positions for mercury. Our detailed analysis of magnetism of large single crystals suggests that europium in Eu$_{10}$Hg$_{55}$ might be present…

We present spatially resolved Keck/NIRC2 images of a stellar occultation by Titan on September 5, 2022 and compare them to predictions from concurrent ALMA observations and a suite of General Circulation Model (GCM) simulations. ALMA data and GCM simulations can predict middle atmosphere zonal wind distributions, which in turn produce diagnostic occultation image sequences. We construct an occultation forward model using the temperature profile measured by the Huygens Atmospheric Structure Inst…

Answering the question "do rocky exoplanets around M stars have atmospheres?" is a key science goal of the JWST mission, with 500 hours of Director's Discretionary Time (DDT) awarded to address it. Theoretically, the so-called "Cosmic Shoreline" may not hold around M stars due to their harsher XUV environment, possibly resulting in most rocky planets lacking significant atmospheres -- a hypothesis that remains to be statistically tested through judicious target selection.

Sub-Neptunes with substantial atmospheres may possess magma oceans in contact with the overlying gas, with chemical interactions between the atmosphere and magma playing an important role in shaping atmospheric composition. Early JWST observations have found high abundances of carbon- and oxygen-bearing molecules in a number of sub-Neptune atmospheres, which may result from processes including accretion of icy material at formation or magma-atmosphere interactions.
