Today, my #lunchwalk was "a bit" rainy.
But I thought a bit of rain can't stop an outdoor jacket, rain pants and rubber boots.
After saving a Cockchafer[1] that I saw on lying on his back, it decided to stay on my jacket for the whole walk 😄
So I even had company!
After the walk I gently removed it from my jacket and placed it near our house. It seems they …

Opposing genocide isn’t antisemitic.
Saying that opposing genocide is antisemitic is antisemitic.
You know what’s inhumane? Genocide. You know who’s committing genocide? Israel.
You have zero moral standing to assess me. Those who commit and are complicit in genocide never do.
So yes, most definitely, goodbye.

In this paper, 2-inch free-standing diamonds were prepared by using heteroepitaxy on composite Ir/YSZ/Si (001) substrates. To release stress, patterned templates were fabricated using laser etching after the initial growth of 50-nm-diamond. Then, the subsequent growth was completed on a patterned template.

On Robustness for the Skolem, Positivity and Ultimate Positivity Problems
The Skolem problem is a long-standing open problem in linear dynamical systems: can a linear recurrence sequence (LRS) ever reach 0 from a given initial configuration? Similarly, the positivity problem asks whether the LRS stays positive from an initial configuration. Deciding Skolem (or positivity) has been open for half a century: the best known decidability results are for LRS with special properties (e.g., low order recurrences). But these problems are easier for "uninitialized" variants, w…

Control of topological edge modes is desirable for encoding quantum information resiliently against external noise. Their implementation on quantum hardware, however, remains a long-standing problem due to current limitations of circuit depth and noise, which grows with the number of time steps.

First time for everything, but I bought the shirt from a FB ad. Yeah, I held my nose at the idea. But I like the shirt.

Watched “The Zone of Interest” (2023) directed by Jonathan Glazer, who deftly exploits the viewer’s imagination throughout this tense movie. Except for hearing screams and gunfire in the distance, there isn’t any overt violence. Everything is perceived, felt. And yet evidence of Auschwitz is seen everywhere. From the tall brick walls topped with barbed wire, to a chilling moment when Hedwig Höss tries on a mink coat delivered by a prisoner.
