Improving Online Bin Covering with Little Advice
The online bin covering problem is: given an input sequence of items find a placement of the items in the maximum number of bins such that the sum of the items' sizes in each bin is at least~1. Boyar~{\em et~al}.\@~\cite{boyar2021} present a strategy that with $O(\log \log n)$ bits of advice, where $n$ is the length of the input sequence, achieves a competitive ratio of $8/15\approx0.5333\ldots$. We show that with a strengthened analysis and some minor improvements, the same strategy achieves t…

❝We humans are stability-seeking creatures. Getting accustomed to what used to seem unthinkable can feel like an accomplishment. And when the unthinkable recedes at least a bit…it’s easy to mistake it for proof that the dark times are ending.
But these comparatively small victories don’t alter the direction of our transformation — they don’t even slow it down measurably — even while they appeal to our deep need to normalize.…And so just when we most need to act — while there is indeed room for action and some momentum to the resistance — we tend to be lulled into complacency by the sense of relief on the one hand and boredom on the other.❞

Detecting malignant dynamics on very few blood sample using signature coefficients
Recent discoveries have suggested that the promising avenue of using circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) levels in blood samples provides reasonable accuracy for cancer monitoring, with extremely low burden on the patient's side. It is known that the presence of ctDNA can result from various mechanisms leading to DNA release from cells, such as apoptosis, necrosis or active secretion. One key idea in recent cancer monitoring studies is that monitoring the dynamics of ctDNA levels might be sufficient …

Towards a Knowledge Base of Common Sustainability Weaknesses in Green Software Development
With the climate crisis looming, engineering sustainable software systems become crucial to optimize resource utilization, minimize environmental impact, and foster a greener, more resilient digital ecosystem. For developers, getting access to automated tools that analyze code and suggest sustainabilityrelated optimizations becomes extremely important from a learning and implementation perspective. However, there is currently a dearth of such tools due to the lack of standardized knowledge, whi…

Another of the supposed "defence experts" (aka #warmongers) advising Labour. The article identifies 2 others, "Lord Robertson, a former Nato secretary general, and the retired general Sir Richard Barrons".
Any experts on #peace,

Fiona Hill’s argument is that
in a time of profound uncertainty,
Britain needs greater internal cohesion if it is to protect itself.
“We can’t rely exclusively on anyone any more,” she said,
arguing that Britain needed to have “a different mindset” based as much on traditional defence as on social resilience.
Some of that, Hill said, was about a greater recognition of the level of external threat and initiatives for greater integration,
by teaching first a…
