#ShamelesslyStolenFromTheOtherSite

«Komoot’s core tech of Leaflet map, Graphhopper routing engine, and #OpenStreetMap data are all free, open-source projects. This is in addition to all the open-source web servers, databases, and operating systems that tech companies build upon. They leech off the open-source commons»
I'm convinced that this is one of the big reasons why we need some form of @… sooner rather than later, to ensure our commons can be saved from corp capture.

Constraints on an optical counterpart for the long-period radio transient GPM J1839-10
Long period radio transients (LPTs) are periodic radio sources showing pulsed emission on timescales from minutes to hours. The underlying sources behind this emission are currently unclear. There are two leading candidates: neutron stars or white dwarfs. Neutron stars could emit at LPT timescales as magnetars, binaries, or precessing sources. White dwarfs on the other hand have only been observed to emit in radio as binary systems with companions that provide charged particles through their wi…

« Les bijoux volés au Louvre, qui ne valent que pour leurs métaux précieux, sont surtout des objets désuets et encombrants »
Les réactions au cambriolage du Louvre ignorent l’équation complexe de ces musées : une ouverture généreuse au public et la sécurisation d’objets encombrants, plus à leur affaire dans une banque, explique, dans sa chronique, Michel Guerrin, rédacteur en chef au « Monde ».

Currently testing Star Wars Jedi: Survivor with FSR 4 on Linux (thanks to Optiscaler oc). I must say I'm finally enjoying this and any other game I have tried so far to the fullest. There's just this nagging feeling of resentment that AMD doesn't seem to be in a hurry to do their own job and release officially FSR 4 for RDNA 3 on Windows and Linux, hence the turncoat hesitations. For what it's worth, I'd choose Linux over Windows any day.

I randomly bought this book in a quirky bookshop in Copenhagen for the sole reason that it said all the wrong things right on the cover.
(Sales: the single most important profession. NLP™: not natural language processing but neuro-linguistic programming. Meta: the Meta Model™ and Meta Publications™.)
I just started reading it and boy oh boy, I was not disappointed. It's outrageously hilarious.

An Algorithm Architecture for Radio Interferometric Data Processing
We present a foundational, scalable algorithm architecture for processing data from aperture synthesis radio telescopes. The analysis leading to the architecture is rooted in the theory of aperture synthesis, signal processing and numerical optimization keeping it scalable for variations in computing load, algorithmic complexity, and accommodate the continuing evolution of algorithms. It also adheres to scientific software design principles and use of modern performance engineering techniques p…

"Accessibility people, you go work on that thing of yours over there": Addressing Disability Inclusion in AI Product Organizations
The rapid emergence of generative AI has changed the way that technology is designed, constructed, maintained, and evaluated. Decisions made when creating AI-powered systems may impact some users disproportionately, such as people with disabilities. In this paper, we report on an interview study with 25 AI practitioners across multiple roles (engineering, research, UX, and responsible AI) about how their work processes and artifacts may impact end users with disabilities. We found that practiti…

From Physics to Machine Learning and Back: Part II - Learning and Observational Bias in PHM
Prognostics and Health Management ensures the reliability, safety, and efficiency of complex engineered systems by enabling fault detection, anticipating equipment failures, and optimizing maintenance activities throughout an asset lifecycle. However, real-world PHM presents persistent challenges: sensor data is often noisy or incomplete, available labels are limited, and degradation behaviors and system interdependencies can be highly complex and nonlinear. Physics-informed machine learning ha…

Asymmetric stress engineering of dense dislocations in brittle superconductors for strong vortex pinning
Large lossless currents in high-temperature superconductors (HTS) critically rely on dense defects with suitable size and dimensionality to pin vortices, with dislocations being particularly effective due to their one-dimensional geometry to interact extensively with vortex lines. However, in non-metallic compounds such as HTS with rigid lattices, conventional deformation methods typically lead to catastrophic fracture rather than dislocation-mediated plasticity, making it a persistent challeng…
