It is absolutely clear that,
The new casualties and massacre in #Gaza were inflicted by the Israeli army.
We know this because of,
The scale
The kind of injuries which include blast from shells
Eyewitness reports.
Who do you believe, the Israeli government or MSF?

Laser-driven ion acceleration in long-lived optically shaped gaseous targets enhanced by magnetic vortices
This research demonstrates high-repetition-rate laser-accelerated ion beams via dual, intersecting, counterpropagating laser-driven blast waves to precisely shape underdense gas into long-lived near-critical density targets. The collision of the shock fronts compresses the gas and forms steep density gradients with scale lengths of a few tens of microns. The compressed target persists for several nanoseconds, eliminating laser synchronization constraints. Measurements of multi-MeV ion energy sp…

I just read the story about the Italian kidnapped by a New York couple and tortured to disclose the credentials for his crypto assets - and the first thing that came to mind was XKCD 538 "Security" about the five dollar wrench.
Am I a bad person?

Improving precision of A/B experiments using trigger intensity
In industry, online randomized controlled experiment (a.k.a. A/B experiment) is a standard approach to measure the impact of a causal change. These experiments have small treatment effect to reduce the potential blast radius. As a result, these experiments often lack statistical significance due to low signal-to-noise ratio. A standard approach for improving the precision (or reducing the standard error) focuses only on the trigger observations, where the output of the treatment and the control…

50 years of reunification, the end of the second Indochina war, #Vietnam had a blast with a mammoth celebration. The nationalism is troubled but it goes strong. An entire day of a parade in Saigon and on TV, and we had a tank in the newspaper 🤷
Interesting, since it’s the final days abroad for us

I’m a newbie #ukulele player having a blast learning stiff strumming patterns that I can’t even follow along singing to without wrecking the whole thing.
But I am curious about how to move away from it in the near future. What should I aim for?
I guess plucking and fingerpicking?

As a masto admin i gotta admit one of the things that is dumb is that there isn’t a macro to blast the fukkin fediverse chick sorry but really wtf man

Study of $p_\mathrm{T}$-differential radial flow in blast-wave model
The transverse momentum-differential radial flow observable $v_0(p_\mathrm{T})$, recently proposed and measured by the ATLAS and ALICE collaborations, provides a novel tool to probe radial expansion dynamics in high-energy heavy-ion collisions. In this work, we conduct a detailed study of $v_0(p_\mathrm{T})$ using a blast-wave model that incorporates hydrodynamic-like expansion and thermal emission. We introduce event-by-event fluctuations in the transverse expansion velocity and kinetic freeze…

I’ve been a longtime fan of the band Lettuce (@lettucefunk elsewhere), but I was a little skeptical of their live album w/ the Colorado Symphony.
That was a mistake b/c this album is amazing!
Just so super cool how much the orchestra adds, and I bet it was an absolute blast to perform & record!
