I, an atheist, would defend these Christians from persecution.
The MAGA regime, ostensibly Christian nationalists, are the persecutors.

ICE Goes After Church Leaders and Christians Fleeing Persecution
On Tuesday, Iranian asylum-seekers were detained in Los Angeles, adding to the count of church members taken despite lawful status.

In Greek and Roman society, people questioned whether the gods could be trusted. “But Judaism affirms—and Christianity inherits this and adds to it—that God is trustworthy.”
—YDS New Testament Professor Teresa Morgan speaking on the latest episode of the YDS "Quadcast," focused on Christianity’s early spread among the Greeks and Romans.

CircuitProbe: Dissecting Spatiotemporal Visual Semantics with Circuit Tracing
The processing mechanisms underlying language and image understanding in large vision-language models (LVLMs) have been extensively studied. However, the internal reasoning mechanisms of LVLMs for spatiotemporal understanding remain poorly understood. In this work, we introduce a systematic, circuit-based framework designed to investigate how spatiotemporal visual semantics are represented and processed within these LVLMs. Specifically, our framework comprises three circuits: visual auditing ci…

game_thrones: Game of Thrones coappearances
Network of coappearances of characters in the Game of Thrones series, by George R. R. Martin, and in particular coappearances in the book "A Storm of Swords." Nodes are unique characters, and edges are weighted by the number of times the two characters' names appeared within 15 words of each other in the text.
This network has 107 nodes and 352 edges.

$k$-fold circuits and coning in rigidity matroids
In 1980 Lovász introduced the concept of a double circuit in a matroid. The 2nd, 3rd and 4th authors recently generalised this notion to $k$-fold circuits (for any natural number $k$) and proved foundational results about these $k$-fold circuits. In this article we use $k$-fold circuits to derive new results on the generic $d$-dimensional rigidity matroid $\mathcal{R}_d$. These results include analysing 2-sums, showing sufficient conditions for the $k$-fold circuit property to hold for $k$-fol…

Absolutely the most surprising part of this obit of Dilip Doshi, a former Indian #cricket player, is that while Doshi always struck me as the squarest of blokes, he was thick chums with MICK JAGGER, the sultan of cool.
