Trump and JD Vance Say You Can Expect to Die for Disobeying ICE
The president and his number two argued that deadly force was a totally reasonable response in the Minnesota ICE shooting.

The Washington Post Got 21,000 Emails After It Didn't Endorse. I Read Them All.
Reading and editing letters gave me a theory about what is wrong with America — and how it could be fixed.

This week, I remembered Jane Goodall. I love the interview with her in The Live Scientific.
Some reasonable predictions for the future of AI, too.
And the progress of public transport in Medellín should be an example for everywhere.

Flexible Intelligent Metasurface for Reconfiguring Radio Environments
Flexible intelligent metasurface (FIM) technology holds immense potential for increasing the spectral efficiency and energy efficiency of wireless networks. In contrast to traditional rigid reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RIS), an FIM consists of an array of elements, each capable of independently tuning electromagnetic signals, while flexibly adjusting its position along the direction perpendicular to the surface. In contrast to traditional rigid metasurfaces, FIM is capable of morphing i…

Voxel-scale quantum state control in nanorod ensembles using reconfigurable needle beams
Precisely addressing single nanostructures inside dense ensembles remains a bottleneck for scalable photonic and quantum information devices. Here we demonstrate, through comprehensive finite element and variational Monte-Carlo modelling, that a reconfigurable three-dimensional array of needle shaped beams can selectively switch the quantum optical response of individual InAs nanorods embedded in GaAs. By tuning the local non resonant intensity pattern the exciton and biexciton energies were ca…
