Calls grow for investigation after ICE attacks protesters
Calls are growing for an independent investigation into ICE after agents were filmed attacking protesters who were trying to prevent arrests in a residential area in Frederick. ICE has arrested more than 50,000 people in August, averaging 1,642 arrests a day. Why is Iran bombing Jordan's Al-Azraq base?

The Job Interview Tattoo Guy Everyone Got Mad at Finally Explains Himself
LemonLime cofounder Jordan Zietz hears your criticism loud and clear. That's why he got his startup's logo tattooed on his shoulder. Jordan Zietz wants to be clear: He has never, and will never, force anyone to tattoo his startup's logo on their body. The 24-year-old briefly became the internet's most hated person after LemonLime, his AI-for-small-business startup, hosted a party following Y Combinator's Startup School in late July. In a LinkedIn post, Zietz wrote that he brought an "actual tattoo artist" to the party, and "offered an instant interview to anyone who got a LemonLime tattoo."
History estimation in random recursive trees: Pointwise approach via iterated Jordan centralities
Bรคumler, Johannes, Briend, Simon, Jorritsma, Joost
We study the problem of estimating the arrival times of vertices in a uniform random recursive tree from its unlabeled structure. We adopt a pointwise perspective and analyze the distribution of the relative estimation error, and derive tail bounds that are uniform in both the vertex and the tree size. For the ranking induced by Jordan centrality, the probability that the estimate exceeds the true arrival time by a factor $S$ decays on the order of $1/S$, while the probability of underestimating the arrival time by a factor $1/S$ decays exponentially in $S$. We introduce a refined centrality measure whose overestimation tail decays on the order of $(\log S)/S^{2}$, at the cost of a heavier lower tail of order $1/S^{2}$. These results reveal a tradeoff between upper- and lower-tail performance in arrival-time estimation that is invisible to the previously studied risk functional. Nevertheless, the refined centrality measure attains the optimal order of the risk for all its parameter values.
Locked Out of the World Cup: A Year Marked by Barriers, Borders, and Broken Access
The 2026 World Cup promises a global celebration. Many Arab fans may find themselves excluded. For the first time in World Cup history, eight Arab nations have qualified for this year's tournament, including Morocco, Tunisia, Egypt, Algeria, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Iraq, and Jordan--double the number of teams that qualified for Qatar in 2022. Yet, the tournament is taking place at an unprecedented moment of heightened geopolitical tension. The US-Israel war with Iran, which began in February of this year, has caused ripple effects across Gulf states and neighboring countries in the Levant, including Lebanon, Palestine, and Jordan, reshaping the security around travel and mobility for fans and players hailing from the region. The US State Department has fully suspended visa issuance for nationals from countries with teams that qualified, including Iran and Haiti--despite it being the first time Haiti has qualified for a World Cup since 1974.
Differential Privacy for Euclidean Jordan Algebra with Applications to Private Symmetric Cone Programming
In this paper, we study differentially private mechanisms for functions whose outputs lie in a Euclidean Jordan algebra. Euclidean Jordan algebras capture many important mathematical structures and form the foundation of linear programming, second-order cone programming, and semidefinite programming. Our main contribution is a generic Gaussian mechanism for such functions, with sensitivity measured in โ2, โ1, and โ norms. Notably, this framework includes the important case where the function outputs are symmetric matrices, and sensitivity is measured in the Frobenius, nuclear, or spectral norm. We further derive private algorithms for solving symmetric cone programs under various settings, using a combination of the multiplicative weights update method and our generic Gaussian mechanism. As an application, we present differentially private algorithms for semidefinite programming, resolving a major open question posed by [Hsu, Roth, Roughgarden, and Ullman, ICALP 2014].
