Fighting for reelection,
GOP Rep. Young Kim has quietly scrubbed references to President Trump from her campaign website,
a striking effort to broaden her appeal as she faces a Republican rival for her Orange County seat.
It’s the latest example of a Republican distancing themselves from a historically unpopular president
less than two months out from the midterm elections.
Elsewhere in California,
David Valadao is strategically distancing himself from Trump…
And to name one thing that I think is completely innocent and actually helpful that I do with my local model (in violation of the ethics policy!):
agent, go read this paper. Check my local pdf library (see here for how it's organized) for which pdfs of references I already have, download all that I don't have and symlink all references with the corresponding numbers to this directory here.

We're up to the stage in the Kinship Carers assessments where we have to ask 4 of our friends to give us references (2 each) when CYF calls them. That's my task for this afternoon.
It's a difficult choice because:
1. No one I know likes to answer unknown numbers.
2. My closest friends are also friends with husband but he has no others.
3. I hate asking.

I know the kids were just a front to find the pipe, but they're not actually bringing them right? Like, even if they're in the dark Silo 17 sounds better than Silo 18, assuming they have food. No ones arresting them or trying to kill them anymore in 17 (assuming that Silo 1 doesn't want to kill them now that they know there's people there).
Also, I don't see how the thing with the Silo rotation and wrong hatch makes sense. The full Silo is rotated, so their references are rotated too right? In the reference inside the Silo the pipe would be exactly on the same place!
Welp, two more episodes to go!

Preventing quart-NaI adhesion in Bridgman growth using ammonium iodide

Abstract: Adhesion between NaI(Tl) single crystals and the walls of quartz ampoules remains a major limitation for Bridgman growth under sealed conditions, particularly for applications requiring ultra-radiopure scintillators for dark matter searches, where sealed handling is essential. In this study, ammonium iodide (NH4I) was used as an additive to generate HI in situ, thereby suppressing the NaOH-SiO2 reaction that forms adhesive sodium silicate phases. Small-diameter crystals (8 mm) were first grown to determine the NH4I concentration required to eliminate adhesion. The optimized condition was then applied to the growth of a large NaI(Tl) crystal. A crack-free and bubble-free NaI(Tl) crystal with dimensions of 3 inches in diameter by 3 inches in length was successfully grown. The crystal exhibited a light output of 59,000 photons/MeV, which is higher than that of the commercial NaI(Tl) crystals used as references in this study.

Decode-Time Grammars: Constrained LLM Generation over a Refinement Order of Grammar Fragments

Abstract: Large language models now write a growing share of the world's code, increasingly inside agents and serving systems that compile, execute, or dispatch generated code without line-by-line review. This works well for mainstream languages but remains brittle for low-resource programming surfaces such as domain-specific languages, custom library APIs, and command-line tools. Even under grammar-constrained decoding, a model can still produce references invalid in the current environment: a buffer never declared, a column absent from the schema, a function the library does not provide, or an unsupported CLI option.
This paper introduces decode-time grammars: grammar fragments instantiated during generation from a runtime environment Gamma. A region-specific policy selects a fragment for each hole, and a tightening operator replaces open reference positions with Gamma-typed slots whose candidates are exactly the names, fields, APIs, or options available at that point. Newly generated declarations enter Gamma before later regions are decoded, so the constraining grammar can depend on the prefix already generated. This ensures not only grammatical correctness but also semantic correctness, by preventing references to undefined symbols.
We formalize grammar fragments as environment-indexed grammars ordered by refinement, prove No-Ghost soundness for Gamma-slotted fragments, show that refinement preserves this support-set guarantee, and characterize the boundary of mask-enforceable properties. We implement the approach in gproj with offline grammar induction and online policy resolution. Across TileLang, SQL, and P4, with models from 0.6B to 236B parameters, gproj eliminates ghost references by construction at moderate overhead over standard constrained decoding.

I do like #jellyfin and have come to depend on it, but it's these dumb design decisions, and when the back-trace is littered with references to Microsoft code, well, I don't want to profile anybody, but it's a red flag in my (long) experience. It worries me.
It's just dumb. Deleting a missing file is a warning at best, not a stacktrace abort; a playlist fail shouldn't stop the party and call for a tech.
Label-Free Finite-Volume-Residual Training of Attention Graph Neural Networks for Coupled Thermo-Fluid Fields

Abstract: Neural surrogates are widely used in scientific machine learning for fast prediction of three-dimensional (3D) thermo-fluid fields. However, generating training data using conventional numerical solvers often incurs substantial computational and storage costs. We propose to train an attention graph neural network by minimizing the finite-volume method (FVM) residuals of the governing equations. These residuals are evaluated directly on the mesh, requiring no labeled data. We evaluate the trained surrogates against computational fluid dynamics (CFD) references and a data-supervised baseline across four scenarios. On the two steady-state benchmarks, the FVM-loss model achieves an all-field normalized root-mean-square error (nRMSE) of 2.3-2.8%. It demonstrates close agreement with the CFD references, including the buoyancy-energy coupling. On the two parametric transient cases, the FVM-loss model outperforms the supervised baseline in terms of accuracy, while avoiding the data-generation cost entirely. These results indicate that the FVM loss can provide a practical training signal for neural surrogates and reduce the model development cost.

As the name suggests, it's set in the late 60s and has lots of happy hippies trying to change the world with peace and love. But also today is Chester Pride, and they've incorporated lots of little references to that into this performance.

Another run in with cruft in #jellyfin and a strong recommendation to others to read their manual page on filenames very carefully, at least until this notion of uncaught exceptions on missing files is updated to be a mere shrug and flush of associated metadata,and a priority to fix.
What happened was really stupid on my part: I noticed file shares often include an IMDB tag in the filename. I had THOUGHT I had seen {imdb-tt…} in the wild, but it had no effect (so I thought) so I hunted up the guide, and so I corrected them to be [imdbid-tt…]
I can no longer watch those shows: Jellyfin offers the old {imdb-*} and will not register the 'new' [imdbid-*] files, even in the Folders view.
For a wishlist, I'd hope some enterprising coder can roll a db-cleanup script that recognizes a missing file and purges all references. Would be nice if it recognized a name-change-only case and ported the old metadata, but hey, as it is, the only method left is wipe clean rebuild from scratch, so anything at all is welcome.
