In Emily St. John Mandel's new novel, becoming a "ghost" means running afoul of the state. In this excerpt, a secret agent discovers it doesn't take much. True diligence is I read the sentence in a detective novel in childhood, when I was 8 or 9 years old, and then the phrase stayed with me forever after. For a long time I wrote in stylized curly letters on the inside page of every notebook, or sometimes on the front cover. I had notebooks for writing down clues, because even at 9 I wanted to work for the Internal Intelligence Service. What child doesn't secretly wish to be a spy? We were terrified and fascinated by Service in equal measure. Service was dark cars moving down the block, men and women in forgettable clothing stopping our parents on the street for brief random interrogations. Service was the force that made people disappear--when I was in the first grade, my friend from across the street climbed into the back of a black car with her parents, and their apartment stood empty for a year before other people moved in--but also Service carried a kind of dark glamour, an aura of power that called to us.

Large Language Models (LLMs) are being explored for applications in scientific research, including their capabilities to synthesize literature, answer research questions, generate research ideas, and even conduct computational experiments. Ultimately, our goal is for these to help scientists derive novel scientific insights. In many areas of science, such insights often arise from processing and visualizing data to understand its patterns. However, evaluating whether an LLM-mediated scientific workflow produces outputs conveying the correct scientific insights is challenging to evaluate and has not been addressed in past work. We introduce ASTROVISBENCH, the first benchmark for both scientific computing and visualization in the astronomy domain. ASTROVISBENCH judges a language model's ability to both (1) create astronomy-specific workflows to process and analyze data and (2) visualize the results of these workflows through complex plots.

Algorithm 1 Association Graph Learning (TRAININGTIME) Require: {Dtrt }Tt=1: Training sets of all tasks; T: Number of tasks; C: Number of all classes; E: Shared feature extractor; WT,WC: Parameters of metric functions in the association graph; L: Number of GNN layers; {Wl}Ll=1: Parameters of all GNN layers; {ft}Tt=1: Task-specific classifiers; λ: Learning rate. For clarity, we provide the algorithms during training and test in Algorithm 1 and Algorithm 2, respectively. Algorithm 2 Association Graph Learning (TESTTIME) Require: xt: one test instance from the t-th task; E: Trained the feature extractor; GT,GC: Trained task and class graph; L: Number of GNN layers; {Wl}Ll=1: Trained parameters of all GNN layers; ft: The trained task-specific classifier. In this section, we provide the class assignment of all datasets under different missing rates. Table B.1, B.2, B.3 shows the class assignment for Office-Home, Office-Caltechand ImageCLEF, respectively.

The new "Send to Alexa" feature lets you send Kindle Scribe notebooks to your Echo device with just a couple of taps. Alexa+ has been rolling out to users across the board (well, users with Prime, that is) as its Early Access becomes more widely available. Now, there's a new feature to explore if you're also a Kindle Scribe user: Send to Alexa. This lets you send your Kindle Scribe notes to the AI-powered assistant so you can ask questions about them without having to refer back to your Kindle. It won't automatically do this with all your notes.

While many laptops with comparable CPU specifications are either significantly heavier or have plastic cases, the Geekbook offers a balanced combination of performance, mobility, and workmanship. Until now, Geekom was primarily known for its mini PCs. With the Geekbook X16 Pro, the company is now expanding its portfolio to include a notebook. The laptop market is highly competitive and dominated by numerous established manufacturers.

In this section, we provide the class assignment of all datasets under different missing rates. The proposed setting is anew multi-task learning scenario. Its practical applications could not be limited by the mentioned assumption in the testing space. Table B.2: The observed classes of each task onOffice-Caltech with different missing rates. Office-Home [9] contains images from four domains/tasks: Artistic, Clipart, Product and Realworld. Skin-Lesion contains three skin lesion classification tasks: HAM10000 [8], Dermofit [2] and Derm7pt[5].

After 10 years of journaling, my only regret is not starting sooner. Keeping a daily diary doesn't come easily to most people, but it takes less effort than you might imagine. It could also become a meaningful way to reflect and grow as a person. For more than 10 years, I've written a few words every morning, and what I've learned from this practice has changed my life. My only regret is not starting sooner.
