Neue Rüstungspanne: Bundeswehr-Digitalfunk fällt in Praxistest durch
In einem wichtigen Zukunftsprojekt der Streitkräfte scheiterten die neuen Funksysteme an simpler Bedienbarkeit. Sie gelten aktuell als "nicht truppentauglich".

twitter: Twitter followers (2010)
A directed network of following relationships from Twitter, from a snowball sample crawl across "quality" users in 2009. A directed edge (i, j) indicates that user i follows user j.
This network has 465017 nodes and 834797 edges.

From Indexing to Coding: A New Paradigm for Data Availability Sampling
The data availability problem is a central challenge in blockchain systems and lies at the core of the accessibility and scalability issues faced by platforms such as Ethereum. Modern solutions employ several approaches, with data availability sampling (DAS) being the most self-sufficient and minimalistic in its security assumptions. Existing DAS methods typically form cryptographic commitments on codewords of fixed-rate erasure codes, which restrict light nodes to sampling from a predetermined…

Sequential 1-bit Mean Estimation with Near-Optimal Sample Complexity
In this paper, we study the problem of distributed mean estimation with 1-bit communication constraints. We propose a mean estimator that is based on (randomized and sequentially-chosen) interval queries, whose 1-bit outcome indicates whether the given sample lies in the specified interval. Our estimator is $(ε, δ)$-PAC for all distributions with bounded mean ($-λ\le \mathbb{E}(X) \le λ$) and variance ($\mathrm{Var}(X) \le σ^2$) for some known parameters $λ$ and $σ$. We derive a sample c…

»Rauswurf - Massenüberwachung — Microsoft sperrt israelische Militäreinheit von Clouddiensten aus:
Es handelt sich um einen symbolischen Akt. Die israelische Armee verlegt Millionen von Telefondaten aus dem Gazastreifen in einen Cloudspeicher von Amazon«
Nun ja, Microsoft sammelt selber und bietet Datensammlung als "Dienstleistung" an und somit uns selber sehr wohl der Massenüberwachung ausgibt.
