“The statistics really show that having teams go out there and actually engage people works a lot better than having a static command van that takes up 44 percent of your budget,” -
And SFPD needs over 6 months to conclude they should try that approach instead of the high-tech, high cost command vehicle?
Or were SFPD simply responding to political directives from "tough on (whatever)" politicians chumming for votes?

SFPD spent 44% of Mission overtime budget on 24/7 police bus, captain says
For nearly 200 days, a police bus cost the Mission police station 44 percent of its monthly overtime budget, Captain Sean Perdomo said.

Joint Hybrid Beamforming and Artificial Noise Design for Secure Multi-UAV ISAC Networks
Integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) emerges as a key enabler for next-generation applications such as smart cities and autonomous systems. Its integration with unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) unlocks new potentials for reliable communication and precise sensing in dynamic aerial environments. However, existing research predominantly treats UAVs as aerial base stations, overlooking their role as ISAC users, and fails to leverage large-scale antenna arrays at terrestrial base stations to …

Comment des partenaires de Pierre-Edouard Stérin mettent le milliardaire à distance : « Il est devenu radioactif »
Les engagements politiques à l’extrême droite de l’entrepreneur et de son numéro deux, François Durvye, conseiller du Rassemblement national, commencent à ternir l’image du groupe, en proie à des difficultés financières.

Neural Canonical Transformation for the Spectra of Fluxional Molecule CH5+
Protonated methane, CH5+, is a highly fluxional molecule with large spatial motions of the hydrogen atoms. The molecule's anharmonic effects and the scrambling of the hydrogen atoms significantly affect the excitation spectrum of the molecule. The neural canonical transformation (NCT) approach, which we previously developed to solve the vibrational spectra of molecules and solids, is a powerful method that effectively treats nuclear quantum effects and anharmonicities. Using NCT with wavefuncti…

Conference vignette 👀: #OpenScience is about much more than #OpenData. Presenting unpublished work is also Openness, as social science alumna Dr. Ros Attenborough reminded us. And if you can share that way, then...
In the Presidential symposium, another lab alumnus introduced a mouse protein that massively affected the clock ⏰ . His group found it through an ambitious phosphoproteomic 🧪 candidate selection approach on a cell line 🧫 , looking beyond the canonical idea of the clockwork (TTFL in the jargon). Canonical here means canonised by a Nobel prize.
A good friend from Japan explained in the Q&A that his group had just found the SAME gene in a genetic screen of mice 🐁with altered sleep patterns 🐁💤🛌. We know the clock controls sleep. So, independent evidence across continents.👍
Over dinner they started to coordinate how they would each publish their work. #Science working.

How culturally diverse do your casts tend to be?
In my fantasy stories, the Great Place is a very complex theocracy; the Coast has a broadly communistic peasantry with superstructures of a capitalist urban merchant class and a autocratic aristocracy; the Western Clans are a tribal society which is broadly communist; the Wild Herd are a puritanical mat…

Federation of Agents: A Semantics-Aware Communication Fabric for Large-Scale Agentic AI
We present Federation of Agents (FoA), a distributed orchestration framework that transforms static multi-agent coordination into dynamic, capability-driven collaboration. FoA introduces Versioned Capability Vectors (VCVs): machine-readable profiles that make agent capabilities searchable through semantic embeddings, enabling agents to advertise their capabilities, cost, and limitations. Our aarchitecturecombines three key innovations: (1) semantic routing that matches tasks to agents over shar…
