Bei Caren Miosga seit Mai zu Gast:
- 5 x Unions-Politiker
- 4 x SPD-Politiker
- 2 x AfD-Politiker
- 0 x Linke
- 0 x Grüne
Wie panisch in Teilen der Presse auf den Wahlsieg der Linke reagiert wird, vermisst man seit Jahren in Bezug auf die rechtsextreme AfD.
Aber ich nehme an, die Linke ist halt gefährlich für die Eigentümer von Axel-Springer, die AfD nur für die Demokratie.

So many websites and apps now adding ChatGPT ad trackers ? The whole thing is way worst than you can imagine.
As far as I can tell, the Navier-Stokes regularity problem has now been resolved in the most annoying way possible:
- we have a single counterexample, not a general theorem;
- we have no real idea how it was found, but it seems to have been existing ideas and a lot of elbow grease;
- this makes no difference in practical applications, which use finite-element numerical methods;
- there's no way to apply this to other PDEs, or to improve our understanding of turbulence;
- the possibility of being scooped by an AI company (and possibly one that's spying on its customers) will discourage people from sharing their work-in-progress on big problems.
In other words, the opposite of what the Millennium Prizes were supposed to achieve! Am I missing something?
EDIT: after a bit more reading, I don't think the situation is quite this bad. The "existing ideas" (the construction of Córdoba and Martínez-Zoroa) have also been used to construct blowups in several related PDEs, so there's an obvious follow-on question about how far they can be pushed - and they've been demonstrated to be more important than most mathematicians realised. I know even less about numerical methods than I know about fluid dynamics, but apparently the way the construction builds ever-smaller perturbations might have implications for building better subgrid models. But we've lost any insight that we might have got from the "elbow grease" phase of the construction, and the way the proof came out will cause a lot of mathematicians to be less transparent.
August 2026 has shattered records.
Also:
“August 2026 was 1.65°C above the estimated 1850-1900 pre-industrial average for the month, marking the first month above 1.5°C since November 2025.”

Watching this Apple event tout how iPhones will soon be able to record ambient audio/conversations and transcribe "high level notes" for you. It's billed as private and end-to-end encrypted, but I think the bigger harm is the normalization of always-listening devices. It's creepy and not normal.
1 Tote bei Unwetter auf Mallorca
Die spanische Insel Mallorca wurde heute von einem ungewohnt intensiven Unwetter überrascht. Starkregen verwandelte zahlreiche Straßen in kleine Bäche. Einige wurden auch zu reißenden Flüssen, von denen in einem eine Frau starb als sie mitgerissen wurde. Zahlreiche Bäume wurden durch gleichzeitig intensive Winde entwurzelt und versperren Wege. In einigen Bereichen der Insel fiel auch zeitweise der Strom aus.
