The name came off an old bent sign found hiding in a window platform. 👑

In 1913, Harry Karandzieff, a Macedonian immigrant, opened Crown Candy Kitchen a few blocks from what would become Route 66. His cousin “Uncle Pete” built the wooden booths. His son George collected more than 500 antique chocolate molds. His grandson Andy still pours into them.

On Christmas Day 1983, the shop caught fire. Five weeks later, it reopened.

When people asked why they never moved to the suburbs, George had one answer: “Why should we move? We’re paid for.”

Same corner. Same booths. Same molds. Same BLT.

Linköping University professor Peter Jonsson is set to have his work presented in two weeks’ time at one of the most prestigious conferences in theoretical computer science. As of Monday, much of that work is “dead,” he says, after AI showed that a 27-year-old hypothesis underpinning it is wrong.

Both OpenAI and Anthropic claimed this week to have disproved the exponential time hypothesis (ETH). Vast swaths of theoretical computer science research on complexity and algorithm design have been built on the premise that the effort it takes to solve certain problems increases exponentially with the size of the problem.

Jonsson expects his predicament will be “very common” at the IEEE Symposium on Foundations of Computer Science, where his work will be presented by one of his coauthors. “People will start the talks: ‘ETH is false, half of my paper does not work,’” he says. It’s a vexing problem, Jonsson says, “but at the same time, we learn a lot from it. And this is what science is about.”

Researchers haven’t independently verified, let alone had time to fully understand, the AI-produced proofs, which both firms have published on GitHub in both natural language and its machine-checkable Lean format. OpenAI has asked the UC Santa Barbara computer scientists who originally proposed the hypothesis, plus an MIT academic who has refuted a version of ETH, to rally researchers to unpack the proofs. So far, this effort includes a Google form asking for volunteers and feedback, and a commitment from OpenAI to fund a conference on the topic.

Mes nëntë viktimave të aksidentit tragjik me avionin privat Learjet 60 në Florida është edhe 20-vjeçarja Nathalia Gadelha Filgueiras, e cila ishte bashkëpilote në fluturimin fatal. Identiteti i saj u konfirmua nga nëna dhe njerku për gazetën amerikane “New York Post”.

Historia e të resë ka tërhequr vëmendje të veçantë, pasi ajo kishte arritur të merrte licencën e pilotit në moshën vetëm 17-vjeçare, kur ishte ende në shkollë të mesme. Në tetor 2023, Nathalia ishte bërë pjesë e mediave lokale për këtë arritje, pasi kishte mësuar të pilotonte përpara se të merrte edhe patentën e makinës.

Ajo kishte nisur mësimet e fluturimit në vitin 2020, ndërsa ishte ndihmuar edhe nga babai i saj, i cili e kishte pasion pilotimin. Formimi i saj u mbështet nga Akademia e Aviacionit e Distriktit Shkollor të Palm Beach County, e cila financoi licencën e saj private.

Sipas familjarëve, 20-vjeçarja kishte rreth 1,300 orë fluturimi dhe punonte si pilote profesioniste prej nëntë muajsh. Ajo ëndërronte të bëhej pilote e linjave ajrore komerciale.

Vetëm rreth 10 minuta para rrëzimit, Nathalia i kishte dërguar një mesazh të dashurit të saj, ku i tregonte se avioni po përballej me turbulenca dhe ngrirje. Nëna e saj, Camila, ka treguar për “New York Post” se ndihej krenare që vajza po jetonte ëndrrën e saj, por kishte frikë se një ditë pikërisht pasioni për fluturimin mund t'ia merrte.

Aksidenti ndodhi të dielën në Palm Beach County, ku avioni me nëntë persona në bord u rrëzua në një zonë të banuar. Asnjë prej personave që ndodheshin në avion nuk mbijetoi.

Would you know when you’re having sex during your fertile window? Have you tried this old wives tale? I have friends it’s worked for and friends where it hasn’t.. super interesting to know what people’s experiences are though! #fertilityawareness #menstrualcycle #newborn #ttc #pregnancy
