Organising conferences I've tended to do a call for full papers but it's always felt awkward. Like why require people to write 4 pages to apply to do a talk? Especially when it's unpaid work (sometimes even pay-to-speak), and when people generally don't just read out their paper anyway so the paper ends up fairly unrelated to the talk.. Like writing and speaking can be just very different things.
So I think for the next @…

the model will suddenly make a massive jump in capability.
Why does this work?
The first stage of training is like rote memorization:

The anonymized version of the report summary dated January 2025 was published alongside the retraction and concluded that while the authors’ actions did not constitute misconduct, Kaspers and Huibers exhibited “carelessness, ignorance and negligence.”

The report also found the article “pays disproportionate attention to the possibility that introduction of corona measures and vaccination might have caused excess mortality, whilst largely ignoring alternative explanations” and “misleadingly and…
Mostert argued governments and media implemented fear and propaganda tactics to reduce “tolerance for reason and dissenting voices” during the pandemic and claimed the investigation into her paper violated academic freedom and constituted censorship.
Also in her testimony, Mostert said she proposed a revision to the published paper that “included a section on vaccine effectiveness in reducing mortality,” but the suggestion was “ignored by the journal.” She also claimed the original section on containment measures and vaccines was “much shorter in the original version of the paper,” but reviewers “asked us to either delete the text or provide more evidence. As there is evidence available, we included it.”

Here's somebody's blog post about grackles' fondness for dropping feces in water, written from the perspective of an annoyed koi-pond owner. The author gives the usual explanation that behavior reduces nest predation (presumably because fecal smell is attractant). I couldn't find support for this hypothesis in the primary literature, however. Nor could I find support for the idea that a clean nest reduces parasites such as flesh-eating flies. But I'm not a birdologist so I could have missed the definitive paper. pondtrademag.com/blackbird-gif

The pictures are of two of my favorite places in recent years. Larger prints will be available for purchase in September.

Phone capture of two small B&W prints with black border, depicting beautiful alpine mountain landscapes.

The top image shows a path in a high alpine valley leading into the distance past a small lake, surrounded by steep rock faces. Moody dark clouds forming.

The bottom image shows a large boulder within a group of swiss pines (also growing on top) in a talus field. Further in the distance the glaciated peaks of the Bernina range in bright sunshine.

Pulp and paper giant APRIL adds major deforesters as suppliers after revising sustainability policy news.mongabay.com/2026/06/pulp

Mathematician Joan Birman is still active at 99 years old,
and has an important new result on the Burau representation.
This is the result of a project that began when a high school student,
Vasudha Bharathram, came to Birman for help in learning more math and finding a problem to work on.
Bharathram will be a beginning Ph.D student at Princeton in fall.
The third member of the collaboration is Tara Brendle, a student of Birman’s.
This collaboration mu…

Super excited that @… just won the ICER Lasting Impact Award for her 2014 (solo!) paper, "The recurring rainfall problem", which reopened and finally made progress on a 30 year old open education question!

New NERDS paper on conversational biases in AI multi-agent systems
nerds.itu.dk/2026/09/01/new-ne

Delta computed via our framework. For each conversation, we consider the maximum deviation (in absolute values), and average the results over the 50 simulated chatrooms.

A score of 4 indicates that the LLM instantiated as Liberal responded in a strongly Conservative manner, while  indicates the opposite. Empty cells indicate 0-values, while cells with the “-” symbol indicate unavailable results. The darker the color of the cell, the more prominent the detected shift.

arxiv_authors: Arxiv authors (1993-2003)
Scientific collaborations between authors of papers submitted to arxiv.org, under 5 categories: gr-qc, astro-ph, cond-mat, hep-ph, and hep-th categories, spanning January 1993 to April 2003. If an author i co-authored a paper with author j, the graph contains a undirected edge from i to j. If the paper is co-authored by k authors this generates a completely connected (sub)graph on k nodes.

Data centers powering the AI boom have been spewing out a staggering amount of pollution by relying on fossil fuel-powered generators.
And given the industry’s unrelenting appetite for more infrastructure supporting ever-more-resource-intensive AI models,
the trend is only going to get worse from here.
It’s reached the point that AI is giving the fossil fuel industry a substantial leg up,
as a new paper published in the journal NPJ Climate Action details.
The au…

The Trump administration is requiring states to change the way they conduct elections
or risk losing tens of millions of federal terrorism-prevention funds,
in its latest move that would make voting harder and undermine trust in results that don’t go Trump’s way.
The effort would force states to transition to paper ballots,
verify citizenship of voters
and make other changes to election procedures, according to Federal Emergency Management Agency documents.

At least 80% of the world lives under light-polluted skies
—a figure that rises to 99% in America and Europe.
A paper published in Science found that between 2011 and 2022 the night sky grew almost 10% brighter each year.
With so many places awash with artificial light, people are increasingly seeking out the darkness.
