My mini review of Shen Yun: it isn't the fanciest example of chinese dancing I've ever seen (that honor goes to the "Romance of the Song Dynasty" show at the Songcheng Romance Park) but I liked it. It was worth the $30 I paid.

Successful first day. Flight issues thanks to snow in Munich but we got to Rome in plenty of time to enjoy a lovely dinner at Babette. Highlight was the ravioli with mozzarella and a little anchovy inside in a yummy butter sauce.

Ignore the video's clickbait title. It's a nice story about the resolution of film before and after the advent of "Digital Intermediate" (I didn't know that editing in Avid was originally in something like 320x200 pixels or that Oh Brother Where Art Thou" was the first production to scan a whole movie at high resolution for digital color grading).

Weltmodell statt LLM: Start-up von Yann LeCun erhält 890 Millionen Euro
Das von Yann LeCun gegründete Start-up AMI Labs hat rund 1 Milliarde US-Dollar eingesammelt. Es entwickelt KI-Weltmodelle, die die reale Welt verstehen sollen.

Let's see if Shen Yun is worth the evening.

Allerede da der bare var busreklamer for det her, undrede det mig. “Kina fŸr kommunismens tid” og så nogle dansere? Den tidsbestemmelse er så underligt uspecifik at det må være en implicit kritik af kommunismen. Det kan derfor ikke være noget der er stŸttet af det nuværende styre. Men hvad så?
I dag fandt jeg så en folder i postkassen der reklamerer for Shen Yun i Royal Arena. Folderen indeholder citater som “Jeg blev oplŸftet, jeg blev fyldt med håb… Verden bliver et bedre sted på gru…

Wow, serious rite of passage: my younger son playing his first lp... On our turntable unused for a decade or two, with a just-replaced cartridge... These speakers are also getting their first airing despite me having had them for years (gifted by a mate as excess to requirements)...

Abstract: Compact Free-Electron Lasers (FELs) offering broad, continuous spectral tunability are traditionally constrained by fixed-parameter magnetic structures and the necessity for high-energy electron beams. High-gain Harmonic Lasing (HL) has long been proposed as a solution to overcome these limitations; however, a robust experimental verification of this principle has remained absent. Here, we report the first experimental demonstration of high-gain HL. By employing a frequency-tunable electron beam density modulation to dominate the fundamental instability, we achieved sustained FEL amplification at the 3rd and 5th harmonics of the wiggler. The HL mode generated output power comparable to conventional fundamental operation with enhanced stability and narrower spectral bandwidth. Notably, we demonstrate that HL extends the spectral coverage by a factor of two under fixed facility constraints, achieving pulse energies up to 540 {\mu}J. These results establish high-gain HL as a versatile mechanism for advancing compact, wavelength-flexible FEL facilities.
