Corte de Santiago rechaza solicitud de general (R) Iturriaga Neumann para dejar Punta Peuco y cumplir condena de 515 años en su casa - La Tercera El exsubdirector de Inteligencia de la DINA había presentado un recurso de amparo alegando que la cárcel no tenía las condiciones óptimas para su complejo estado de salud.

Urge una solución humanitaria intermedia. Propongo que cumpla los primeros 500 años recluido, y se le permita cumplir en su hogar los 15 años restantes.

Please share with your big picture colleagues.

Après deux mois la situation demeure identique @villedemontreal.montreal.ca. Combien ça peut coûter de remplacer un but? Je suis certain que les bénéfices dépassent largement les coûts associés à ce remplacement

Does the solver use rational arithmetic all along, or does it find a solution using FPA and then the exact solution (and certificate) in a post processing step?

This may be an actual correlation 👀

I Saved a PNG Image To A Bird YouTube video by Benn Jordan

Holy shit. This guy saved a PNG to a bird.

(he drew a bird into a spectrogram, played that sound to a starling, and the starling reproduced it back to him with enough accuracy he got his bird drawing back in their call's spectrogram) www.youtube.com/watch?v=hCQC...

But cassé / broken goal

Gazon dans très mauvais état / Grass in a very poor condition

@villedemontreal.montreal.ca le terrain de soccer au parc LeBer à PSC est dans un état déprimant. Un but cassé (dangereux!) et le gazon qui n'en reste presque plus

A Potential Path to Safer AI Development Yoshua Bengio warns that the current approach to developing AI models carries potentially catastrophic risks.

Two years ago, I've completely reoriented my research to try to make AI safe by design. In this TIME op-ed, I present my team's new direction called "Scientist AI"; a practical, effective and more secure alternative to the current uncontrolled agency-driven trajectory.

Integrating Column Generation and Large Neighborhood Search for Bus Driver Scheduling with Complex Break Constraints The Bus Driver Scheduling Problem (BDSP) is a combinatorial optimization problem with the goal to design shifts to cover prearranged bus tours. The objective takes into account the operational cost as...

For those of you interested in bus scheduling (I know that there are only a few of us ...): branch and price and large neighborhood search for dealing with the complex realities in the field.

Hello BlueSky (finally!)

Figured there is no better first post than to one sharing the exciting news that my first PhD student, Meghan Meredith, successfully defended her thesis!

I suspect that the occasional people who try hard to convince me to “follow the teachings of Christ” would be more persuasive if they, in any real way, followed the actual teachings of Christ.

We take tariffs on our beautiful Heard Island very seriously. We will be consulting all mammals and flightless birds and will make an announcement in the near future detailing our response. #heardisland #tariff #mcdonaldisland #trumptariff

Your tariff rate is your star sign divided by the number of boys you've kissed, multiplied by one
