#matsodon , this is part of why your friends think it's too hard & everyone stays on X or Twitter or tries out BSky.
I *JUST* want to like someone's post. I just want to give them a small amount of happy-brain-chemicals & thank them for what they wrote. Why do I have to log in again? I'm already logged in!
Yes, if I wanted to quote their stuff, I see the dangers, I could be trying to do a pile on. But I just want to give them a ⭐️. Why make it so hard???

A Professor at Toronto Metropolitan University:
“The Government of Canada could easily decide that it was going to use LinkedIn or Instagram or wherever it posts, and journalists would switch to following them there because they want to access what they’re saying,” he continued. “There was zero audience for Truth Social when
Trump created and started using it, but the audience went to the politician. Carney and his government could take a principled position by leaving X and its horrible spawn, Grok, and his audience of journalists and politicos would go with them.”
“Apparently, our political leaders simply choose not to.”
YES!! #Fediverse #SocialWeb #Mastodon
As always a huge thank you for the Senator's @… ongoing activism. It WILL happen. (and by it I mean, government going to the social web... Bluesky is just a temporary blip until it too goes fascist or we get some proper digital sovereignty laws in place.)

Homotopy rigidity of nearby Lagrangian cocores

Abstract: An exact Lagrangian submanifold $L \subset X^{2n}$ in a Weinstein sector is called a nearby Lagrangian cocore if it avoids all Lagrangian cocores and is equal to a shifted Lagrangian cocore at infinity. Let $k$ be the dimension of the core of the subcritical part of $X$. For $n \geq 2k 2$ we prove that that the inclusion of $L$ followed by the retract to the Lagrangian core of $X$ and the quotient by the $(n-k-1)$-skeleton of the core, is null-homotopic. As a consequence, in many examples, a nearby Lagrangian cocore is smoothly isotopic (rel boundary) to a Lagrangian cocore in the complement of the missed Lagrangian cocores. The proof uses the spectral wrapped Donaldson-Fukaya category with coefficients in the ring spectrum representing the bordism group of higher connective covers of the orthogonal group.

Microwave electrometry with quantum-limited resolutions in a Rydberg atom array

Abstract: Microwave (MW) field sensing is foundational to modern technology, yet its evolution, reliant on classical antennas, is constrained by fundamental physical limits on field, temporal, and spatial resolutions. Here, we demonstrate an MW electrometry that simultaneously surpasses these constraints by using individual Rydberg atoms in an optical tweezer array as coherent sensors. This approach achieves a field sensitivity within 13% of the standard quantum limit, a response time that exceeds the Chu limit by more than 11 orders of magnitude, and in-situ near-field mapping with {\lambda}/3000 spatial resolution. This work establishes Rydberg-atom arrays as a powerful platform that unites quantum-limited sensitivity, nanosecond-scale response time, and sub-micrometer resolution, opening new avenues in quantum metrology and precision electromagnetic field imaging.

the "woke games detector"'s ULTRAKILL problem: there are some games they don't like just because the developer is vaguely progressive and the fandom is largely queer and makes a lot gay fanart of the characters but they have to come up with some 4d chess problem with the game itself
like ah yes the game about robot killing demons in hell and extracting their blood is woke because there's a blahaj easter egg and not because there's shitload of V1 x Gabriel yao…
