A Short Introduction to Optimal Transport and Wasserstein Distance These notes provide a brief introduction to optimal transport theory, prioritizing intuition over mathematical rigor. A more rigorous presentation would require some additional background in measure theory. Other good introductory resources for optimal transport theory include: Why Optimal Transport Theory? A fundamental problem in statistics and machine learning is to come up with useful measures of “distance” between pairs o

‘Star Trek’ Journalists, Ranked

gizmodo.com James Whitbrook 2025-11-05 10:16:46

The potential for what journalism looks like in Star Trek is a heady idea that’s been around as long as the series itself. What does reporting the news look like in utopia? What does it mean that the Federation has its own news networks, alongside a host of interstellar media organizations? What does freedom of information mean in a universe that has Starfleet? And yet, we’ve actually had very few characters appear in the series as fully dedicated journalists and reporters. That changed a littl

Google Did Not Unilaterally Decide to Kill XSLT

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-11-05 22:28:55

It’s uncommon, but not unheard of, for a GitHub issue to spark an uproar. That happened over the past month or so as the WHATWG (Web Hypertext Application Technology Working Group, which I still say should have called themselves a Task Force instead) issue “Should we remove XSLT from the web platform?” was opened, debated, and eventually locked once the comment thread started spiraling into personal attacks.

Joe Maring / Android Authority TL;DR T-Mobile sent a text about “Authorized Users” that some customers mistook as a fraud warning. It was confirmed to be a mass informational campaign, not an unauthorized purchase attempt. It’s not the first eyebrow-raising SMS from the carrier this month.

The warning signs the AI bubble is about to burst

“When will the internet bubble burst?” the cover story of Barron’s asked on March 20 2000. “That unpleasant popping sound is likely to be heard before the end of this year.” In fact, that same day, one of the most high-profile tech businesses of the moment suffered a share price plunge of 60pc. A flood of other collapses followed, evaporating trillions of dollars. Now, some on Wall Street fear that “unpleasant popping sound” may be imminent for the artificial intelligence (AI) boom.
