May Day rallies sweep US, demanding reforms for working-class rights

Al Jazeera

Roughly 500 labour groups across the United States have organised a widespread economic blackout calling for "no school, no work, no shopping" to mark May Day, also known as International Workers' Day. The events, organised as part of an initiative called May Day Strong, were inspired by economic boycotts following ramped-up immigration enforcement operations in Minneapolis, Minnesota, and the deaths of US citizens Renee Good and Alex Pretti in January. May Day Strong has a broad set of demands, including "tax the rich" and abolishing Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) -- a call that comes as Republicans voted on Wednesday on a budgetary measure that would fund the agency under the Department of Homeland Security. It also calls for ending war and "expanding democracy", according to a statement from the group. While the tent is broad in nature, organisers stressed that it is a result of a wide set of challenges facing the US worker.

Causality-Encoded Diffusion Models for Interventional Sampling and Edge Inference

arXiv.org Machine Learning

Diffusion models [1, 2, 3] have emerged as a powerful class of generative models, achieving state-of-the-art performance across a wide range of applications, including imaging [2] and scientific-data synthesis [4]. From a statistical perspective, they can be viewed as flexible nonparametric estimators of a (conditional) distribution via score estimation and reverse-time stochastic differential equations (SDEs) [5, 6]. Despite this expressive power, standard diffusion models are typically causality-agnostic: they learn a joint law without encoding the directional asymmetries required for causal interpretation. As a consequence, they do not, on their own, provide principled answers to interventional queries or support broader causal analyses, which are central to structural causal models (SCMs) [7]. When a causal ordering (or a directed acyclic graph) is available, it is natural to construct generative procedures that sample variables sequentially according to the causal factorisation. Such iterative, ordering-respecting approaches have been proposed using a variety of generative models, including generative adversarial networks [8], variational autoencoders [9], normalising flows [10], and diffusion-based constructions such as DDIM [11]. However, a rigorous statistical understandingof the advantages of exploitingsuch causalstructureand the inferential use of the resulting generator remain less developed.

As we have discussed several times recently, the Stanley Cup Playoffs are home to some of the most superstitious human beings on the planet. Several of the most famous traditions in the sport stem from fans and players alike doing something born out of superstition. Take the Detroit Red Wings and their octopus toss, whose eight legs symbolize the eight wins it took to win a Stanley Cup back when the league was much smaller.
