From Tea Leaves to System Maps: Context-awareness in Monitoring Operational Machine Learning Models
Machine learning (ML) models in production do not fail due to statistical anomalies in their input data; they fail due to contextual misalignment -- when their environment deviates from training assumptions, leading to unreliable predictions. Effective ML monitoring requires rich contextual information to move beyond detecting statistical shifts toward meaningful alerts and systematic root-cause analysis. Yet, surprisingly, despite extensive research in ML monitoring and related disciplines (dr…

Mainstream social media apps spy on you. This isn't even the first such revelation. All social nedia works just fine in your web browser, which defeats a lot of those shenanigans.
If you really want a separate app, consider a second web browser. Also, Mastodon apps should be fine (but be careful with the less popular ones).

Telegram Purged Chinese Crypto Scam Markets—Then Watched as They Rebuilt
Last month, Telegram banned black markets that sold tens of billions of dollars in crypto scam-related services. Now, as those markets rebrand and bounce back, it’s done nothing to stop them.

Cosmic Axions Revealed via Amplified Modulation of Ellipticity of Laser (CARAMEL)
We propose a new axion dark matter detection strategy that employs optical readout of laser beam ellipticity modulations caused by axion-induced electric fields in a microwave cavity, using electro-optic (EO) crystals, enhanced by externally injected radio-frequency (RF) power. Building upon the variance-based probing method, PRD 107, 103005, (2023), we extend this concept to the optical domain: a weak probe laser interacts with an EO crystal placed inside a resonant microwave cavity at cryogen…

"In Boston, between 1709 and 1713, townspeople protested vigorously and then took extralegal action when Andrew Belcher, a wealthy merchant, refused to stop exporting grain during a bread shortage in the city...he chose to export grain to the Caribbean, at a handsome profit, rather than sell it for a smaller profit to hungry townspeople, his ships were attacked and his warehouses emptied by an angry crowd...Bostonians of meagre means learned that through concerted action, the powerless could become powerful, if only for the moment. Wealthy merchants who would not listen to pleas from the community could be forced through collective action to subordinate profits to the public need."
