Hamburg: HVV erhöht Fahrkartenpreise um bis zu 13 Prozent
Der Hamburger Verkehrsverbund (HVV) erhöht seine Fahrpreise um durchschnittlich 5,4 Prozent.
Das besagt ein Antrag an den Senat, der sich damit kommende Woche befassen wird. Einzelne Tickets verteuern sich ab 2026 sogar um 13 Prozent.

An approximate history of my amateur phone photography:
1. Really poor photos. Unsavory interest in (low resolution) panoramas.
2. Photos get a little better. Sometimes they're HDRs (I suspect the camera app was set to "auto").
3. A new phone. Higher resolution and a gyroscope.
4. Switching to LineageOS, and therefore to #OpenCamera. HDR enabled unconditionally.
5. HDR does not always come great (compared to the stock Motorola app that doesn't work anymore). I enable saving component photos, so I could try getting a better quality combination using the PC. I never manage that.
6. I start experimenting with exposure correction (combined with HDR). Sometimes I do multiple photos with different "Eves" to choose the best one.
7. A new phone. Finally, given even the gyroscope was failing already.
8. I learn that Pixels have "HDR " that gets activated when you do standard mode photos. For a while I do both standard and HDR photos; also I compare the middle component image with the standard mode image. [https://opencamera.sourceforge.io/help.html#faq]
9. Before I reach any final conclusions, I read "What is HDR, anyway?" I disable HDR entirely, instead I save standard mode (i.e. HDR ) raw images (which presumably aren't affected by HDR ) [https://www.lux.camera/what-is-hdr/]. Not that I ever managed to get anything good out of raws.
10. I discover that I can switch the lens. Today I've made my first photos, switching lens to get optical zoom 💪.

SketchMind: A Multi-Agent Cognitive Framework for Assessing Student-Drawn Scientific Sketches
Scientific sketches (e.g., models) offer a powerful lens into students' conceptual understanding, yet AI-powered automated assessment of such free-form, visually diverse artifacts remains a critical challenge. Existing solutions often treat sketch evaluation as either an image classification task or monolithic vision-language models, which lack interpretability, pedagogical alignment, and adaptability across cognitive levels. To address these limitations, we present SketchMind, a cognitively gr…

Multi-year stacking searches for solar system bodies
Digital tracking detects faint solar system bodies by stacking many images along hypothesized orbits, revealing objects that are undetectable in every individual exposure. Previous searches have been restricted to small areas and short time baselines. We present a general framework to quantify both sensitivity and computational requirements for digital tracking of nonlinear motion across the full sky over multi-year baselines. We start from matched-filter stacking and derive how signal-to-noise…

Stacking-Controlled Magnetic Exchange and Magnetoelectric Coupling in Bilayer CrI$_2$
We use a first-principles calculations approach to reveal the electronic and magnetic properties of chromium diiodide (CrI$_2$) bilayers and establish a hierarchy of magnetic interactions across stable registries. The monolayer presents a x-stripe antiferromagnetic ground state, while in bilayers the BA$^\prime$ stacking is the global minimum with antiparallel interlayer magnetic alignment. Bilayer configurations strengthen the exchange in the plane by 6 % to 10 %, while the exchange between la…

Code-switching Speech Recognition Under the Lens: Model- and Data-Centric Perspectives
Code-switching automatic speech recognition (CS-ASR) presents unique challenges due to language confusion introduced by spontaneous intra-sentence switching and accent bias that blurs the phonetic boundaries. Although the constituent languages may be individually high-resource, the scarcity of annotated code-switching data further compounds these challenges. In this paper, we systematically analyze CS-ASR from both model-centric and data-centric perspectives. By comparing state-of-the-art algor…

Die Nackte Kanonen (Remake 2025) ist übrigens deutlich weniger schlecht als ich befürchtet hatte.
Sicher kein Zucker-Brothers Film aber ich musste stellenweise lachen, mindestens aber schmunzeln.
Einige Scherze setzen aber "Kenntnisse" voraus und werden so manche Person unter 30 Jahre eventuell nicht mehr erreichen, gibt aber genug Klamauk und "Liam Neeson nimmt sich selbst auf die Schippe" als Ausgleich.
