A protest does not become a rebellion merely because the protestors advocate for myriad legal or policy changes, are well organized, call for significant changes to the structure of the U.S. government, use civil disobedience as a form of protest, or exercise their Second Amendment right to carry firearms as the law currently allows.
Nor does a protest become a rebellion merely because of sporadic and isolated incidents of unlawful activity or even violence committed by rogue particip…

Engineering Rogue Waves via Multimode Interactions in Integrated Waveguides
We explore rogue wave formation in multimode silicon nitride (Si$_3$N$_4$) waveguides with multimode nonlinear Schrödinger equation-based simulations. Pure fundamental-mode excitation produces smooth propagation without extreme events, whereas higher-order modes or multimode superpositions yield heavy-tailed statistics with bursts exceeding the $8σ$ threshold. These results reveal that rogue wave generation in integrated waveguides is controlled not only by material properties such as nonline…

Rogue waves in extended Gross-Pitaevskii Models with a Lee-Huang-Yang correction
We explore the existence and dynamical generation of rogue waves (RWs) within a one dimensional quantum droplet bearing environment. RWs are computed by deploying a spacetime fixed point scheme to the relevant extended Gross Pitaevskii equation (eGPE). Parametric regions where the ensuing RWs are different from their counterparts in the nonlinear Schroedinger equation are identified. To corroborate the controllable generation, relevant to ultracold atom experiments, of these rogue patterns we e…

"I know it's not right, but that's what it said to do": Investigating Trust in AI Chatbots for Cybersecurity Policy
AI chatbots are an emerging security attack vector, vulnerable to threats such as prompt injection, and rogue chatbot creation. When deployed in domains such as corporate security policy, they could be weaponized to deliver guidance that intentionally undermines system defenses. We investigate whether users can be tricked by a compromised AI chatbot in this scenario. A controlled study (N=15) asked participants to use a chatbot to complete security-related tasks. Without their knowledge, the ch…

if they do not amend the Rome Statute, which established the court in 2002,

Occasionally a guy shows up to “fix something” but it’s a rogue agent and installs razor blades in the armrests.
Someone else shows up and takes the chair away “until further notice”.
The month after you get a delivery of a water bed.
Sometimes the manufacturer of the chair sends a letter that for your own convenience the chair is now suddenly a rental chair.
Last month they increased the rental fee because exciting news! the chair is now sentient and you can help you do your homework and also generate furniture porn.

Soliton,breathers,positons and rogue waves for the vector complex modified Korteweg-de Vries equation
This paper constructs the $N$-fold Darboux transformation (DT) for the vector complex modified Korteweg-de Vries (vcmKdV) equation and presents its determinant representation. Utilizing the DT and multi-fold eigenvalue degeneracy, we derive globally bounded solutions for the vcmKdV equation, including $N$-bright-bright-bright solitons, $N$-dark-bright-bright solitons, $N$-breathers, $N$-positon solutions, and $N$th-order rogue wave solutions." All these solutions are globally bounded. Graphical…

Truly, everyone's a "rogue capitalist" now.
It's almost like the problem with companies isn't whether their business model is based on showing you ads or charging you money,

The problem here, as the students make very clear, is not whether or not AI can be used in teaching. It's that you're selling them something they can get much cheaper and better without you.

Trump went rogue on Truth Social on Tuesday,
contradicting his own administration’s decision a day earlier to fund SNAP benefits during the shutdown
—and potentially violating a court order in the process.
Trump’s announcement caught members of his own team off guard,
with four people with knowledge of the matter telling Politico they aren’t clear whether his post means that USDA now won’t abide by the court order.
If Trump follows through on his threat,

The Constitution was an attempt to solve the oldest political problem:
how to make liberty durable by making power difficult.
A system of government both sufficient to keep order,
but not so overbearing it snuffs out the rights of the people.
The principles behind its design
—divided authority, overlapping ambitions
—was drawn from centuries of failed experiments.
It was also intended to adapt,
to learn, to be amended as needed.
