Want to Get Into Founder Mode? Paul Graham's viral essay explains why Brian Chesky and Steve Jobs ruled and professional managers stink. But if a manager is smart and the founder is meh, who's better? Fledgling founders entering a three-month residency at Y Combinator often start their term with a bang: Brian Chesky, the cofounder and CEO of Airbnb, fires off an inspirational speech. His company, of course, started with three nobodies going through the program. This year, Chesky topped himself.

UC chancellors get big raises, putting them between $785,000 and nearly $1.2 million The UC regents approved pay raises for seven chancellors at their September meeting. At UC Irvine, above, the chancellor will earn $895,000 a year, effective this month. University of California chancellors will get big salary boosts -- near or exceeding 30% in most cases -- as the Board of Regents agreed Thursday that higher pay was needed to bring leaders of the nation's top public university system closer to what their peers earn. The increases, which will be paid through private sources rather than tuition dollars or state funding, are effective this month and will vary by campus.

Gov. Gavin Newsom signed three bills to combat deepfake election content and remove deceptive material from social media, but two are facing court challenges.

Apple's iPhone 16 released in Japan A man holds a new iPhone 16 at an Apple store in Tokyo's Shibuya Ward on Friday. The new iPhone 16 smartphone series of U.S. technology giant Apple went on sale in Japan on Friday, with more than 10 enthusiasts lined up at an Apple store in Tokyo's Shibuya Ward in the morning to buy iPhone 16 handsets. The store moved its opening time earlier to 8 a.m., but shoppers started to stand in line before the opening. At the start of the line was an engineer in his 30s, who bought the top-of-the-line Pro Max model. I'll be happy if it learns about the ways I use it and makes it easier for me to operate it, he said. All models are equipped with the Apple Intelligence generative artificial intelligence system, designed to help users draft emails and create summaries of transcripts of phone calls.

Now, scientists have revealed concerning findings about how and when the glacier could collapse. Researchers from the British Antarctic Survey (BAS) used underwater robots to take new measurements of the glacier, which is the same size as Great Britain. The data indicates that the Thwaites Glacier and much of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet could be lost entirely by the 23rd century. Worryingly, if it collapses entirely, the experts say global sea levels would rise by two feet (65cm) - plunging huge areas underwater. With the potential to cause seas across the planet to rise, it's no wonder the Thwaites Glacier has earned the nickname the'Doomsday Glacier' The Thwaites Glacier is roughly 74.5 miles (120km) across - the same size as Great Britain or Florida - making it the widest glacier on the planet Ice shelf connected to Antarctic's doomsday glacier is CRACKING The Thwaites Glacier is roughly 74.5 miles (120km) across - the same size as Great Britain or Florida.

'Meeting a real-life cyborg was gobsmacking' For the past 20 years, self-declared cyborg artist Neil Harbisson has provoked debate with his eyeborg - a surgically attached antenna. Harbisson, who grew up in Barcelona, is colour blind, having been born with the rare condition achromatopsia, which affects one in 33,000 people. This means he sees in what he calls greyscale - only black, white and shades of grey. But he decided to have surgery in 2004 which changed his life - and his senses - attaching an antenna to the back of his head, which transforms light waves into sounds. When film director Carey Born came across Harbisson, classed by Guinness World Records as the first officially recognised'cyborg', she was gobsmacked and astonished.

Stance detection is the task of determining the viewpoint expressed in a text towards a given target. A specific direction within the task focuses on cross-target stance detection, where a model trained on samples pertaining to certain targets is then applied to a new, unseen target. With the increasing need to analyze and mining viewpoints and opinions online, the task has recently seen a significant surge in interest. This review paper examines the advancements in cross-target stance detection over the last decade, highlighting the evolution from basic statistical methods to contemporary neural and LLM-based models. These advancements have led to notable improvements in accuracy and adaptability. Innovative approaches include the use of topic-grouped attention and adversarial learning for zero-shot detection, as well as fine-tuning techniques that enhance model robustness. Additionally, prompt-tuning methods and the integration of external knowledge have further refined model performance. A comprehensive overview of the datasets used for evaluating these models is also provided, offering valuable insights into the progress and challenges in the field. We conclude by highlighting emerging directions of research and by suggesting avenues for future work in the task.

Transformer neural networks (TNN) have been widely utilized on a diverse range of applications, including natural language processing (NLP), machine translation, and computer vision (CV). Their widespread adoption has been primarily driven by the exceptional performance of their multi-head self-attention block used to extract key features from sequential data. The multi-head self-attention block is followed by feedforward neural networks, which play a crucial role in introducing non-linearity to assist the model in learning complex patterns. Despite the popularity of TNNs, there has been limited numbers of hardware accelerators targeting these two critical blocks. Most prior works have concentrated on sparse architectures that are not flexible for popular TNN variants. This paper introduces \textit{ProTEA}, a runtime programmable accelerator tailored for the dense computations of most of state-of-the-art transformer encoders. \textit{ProTEA} is designed to reduce latency by maximizing parallelism. We introduce an efficient tiling of large matrices that can distribute memory and computing resources across different hardware components within the FPGA. We provide run time evaluations of \textit{ProTEA} on a Xilinx Alveo U55C high-performance data center accelerator card. Experimental results demonstrate that \textit{ProTEA} can host a wide range of popular transformer networks and achieve near optimal performance with a tile size of 64 in the multi-head self-attention block and 6 in the feedforward networks block when configured with 8 parallel attention heads, 12 layers, and an embedding dimension of 768 on the U55C. Comparative results are provided showing \textit{ProTEA} is 2.5$\times$ faster than an NVIDIA Titan XP GPU. Results also show that it achieves 1.3 -- 2.8$\times$ speed up compared with current state-of-the-art custom designed FPGA accelerators.
