TheBlaze’s Jason Whitlock Quietly Deletes Promotion of Antisemitic Interview
But TheBlaze host said he didn’t regret inviting the guest, who spewed vile conspiracy theories, on his show.

The last lift lady guarding Tbilisi’s brutalist skybridge
In a one-room apartment behind a lift shaft, 70-year-old Mzia Sabanadze continues an almost extinct occupation,
manually operating one of the lifts at Nutsubidze.
The pay-to-ride elevator she operates
– the only one of the four in the blocks open to non-residents
– is for those living in the flats, local people taking a shortcut to the top of the hill, and tourists who come to see this monument to bruta…

🌊 An endless domino effect: Non-reciprocal topological solitons in active metamaterials
(... I studied nonlinear science for my PhD and took a while to understand that there were at least three things called "Solitons"; these ones are stabilized by topology as they represent a "kink" that won't go away)

An endless domino effect: Non-reciprocal topological solitons in active metamaterials
Topological solitons can be found in many places and at many different length scales. For example, they take the form of kinks in coiled telephone cords and large molecules such as proteins. At a very different scale, a black hole can be understood as a topological soliton in the fabric of spacetime. Solitons play an important role in biological systems, being relevant for protein folding and morphogenesis—the development of cells or organs.

Topological Optimal Transport for Geometric Cycle Matching
Topological data analysis is a powerful tool for describing topological signatures in real world data. An important challenge in topological data analysis is matching significant topological signals across distinct systems. In geometry and probability theory, optimal transport formalises notions of distance and matchings between distributions and structured objects. We propose to combine these approaches, constructing a mathematical framework for optimal transport-based matchings of topological…
