In April Japan coined new term kokushobi for days above 40C as country advises workers to wear shorts to the office to cope with stifling heat

Japan logged its first official kokushobi or “cruelly hot day” on Tuesday since the new term for when temperatures top 40 degrees Celsius was introduced in April. The Japan Meteorological Agency coined the new designation to warn the public of the heat dangers of days that were once freak weather events but have now become more common.

The central Japan cities of Gujo and Tajimi in Gifu prefecture, along with Toyota in Aichi prefecture, all hit 40C. Gujo’s 40C and Toyota’s 40.1C were all-time highs recorded at their respective weather stations.

Andy Biggs wins nomination to challenge Katie Hobbs as Alex Kolodin won party’s primary for secretary of state

Donald Trump-backed candidates in Arizona prevailed in key primary contests on Tuesday, setting up a fall campaign that will test whether Republicans can reverse some of their recent losses in the presidential battleground state.

Andy Biggs, the hard-right congressman endorsed by Donald Trump, easily won the Republican nomination to challenge the incumbent Democrat, Governor Katie Hobbs.

Warning to shipping companies, on top of Iran’s chokehold on strait of Hormuz, may severely affect Saudi oil exports

• Middle East crisis live – latest updates

Yemen’s Iranian-aligned Houthis have warned shipping companies that their tankers risk being attacked if they use Saudi Arabian ports, as the militia moved quickly to enforce a blockade announced the previous day.

The Houthi warning for the Red Sea, coming on top of Iran’s threat to shipping on the other side of the Arabian peninsular in the Gulf, could affect the substantial Saudi oil exports that have so far been unscathed by the months-long conflict and deepen the rapidly escalating crisis in the region.

Measure authorizes spending until 4 December as Republicans seek to avoid volatile issue in election season

The US House of Representatives on Tuesday approved a stopgap measure to head off a government shutdown until early December, with its Republican leaders seeking to defuse a volatile issue in the run-up to the November midterm elections.

The continuing resolution authorizing government spending until 4 December passed by a vote of 220-205, roughly along party lines. It next heads to the Senate, where it will need to win bipartisan support to clear the chamber.

Lawmakers are hoping to avoid a third shutdown since last September. The stopgap funding measure now heads to the Senate, where it faces an uncertain future.

Корпоративная модель ИИ за $10 млн. дала негативный отзыв на недавно опубликованную статью:

[1] Vladimirov, V.V. (2026). An additional degree of freedom in the processes of self-organized criticality with violation of causality. Chaos, Solitons & Fractals, 208, 118186.

Ключевая проблема не в том, что ИИ «глупый». Проблема в том, что он обучен на другой парадигме. Вот три фундаментальные причины, почему корпоративный ИИ дал негативный отзыв — и почему это не ошибка, а закономерность.

·        ИИ не видит структуру там, где она не выражена в данных

Современные LLM обучены на текстах, которые описывают уже известные паттерны. Статья — о том, как обнаружить новую структуру (гиперболическое пространство, солитон, дополнительную степень свободы), а ИИ не может «увидеть» структуру, которой нет в его обучающей выборке. Он может только распознавать известные паттерны. Это называется иллюзией компетенции — ИИ создаёт впечатление понимания, но на самом деле он просто перекомбинирует известное.

·        ИИ не понимает невыпуклость и обусловленность

Градиентный спуск в невыпуклых ландшафтах страдает от плохой обусловленности матриц весов. Число обусловленности (v) — это прямой индикатор этой проблемы. Корпоративный ИИ, обученный на «best practices», не видит ценности в том, чтобы отслеживать v, потому что в стандартных подходах (Adam, BatchNorm) эту проблему пытаются маскировать, а не решать фундаментально.

Ирония в том, что исследования подтверждают наличие самоорганизованной критичности в обучении нейросетей. Нейросети действительно эволюционируют к критическому состоянию. Статья [1] предлагает способ диагностировать это состояние через (u, v). А корпоративный ИИ просто не знает, что такая диагностика возможна.

The second circuit overturned the previous decision, saying the judge overstepped authority by intervening before it moved through the immigration court system

A federal appeals panel has reversed a lower court decision ordering the release of pro-Palestinian activist Mohsen Mahdawi, opening the door to the re-arrest of a student protest organizer whom the Trump administration has spent more than a year trying to deport.

Tuesday’s ruling from the second US circuit court of appeals in New York City overturns a previous decision by a federal judge in Vermont, which likened the government’s efforts to expel him and other activists to McCarthyist repression.

Proceedings suspended as politicians call for Modi government to address police violence and education scandals

India’s opposition parties have shut down parliament in a protest calling for the resignation of the education minister, in solidarity with the new youth-led “cockroach” movement.

Opposition politicians, led by the Congress party leader Rahul Gandhi, gathered outside the parliament building in Delhi on Wednesday, many dressed in black and waving placards calling on Dharmendra Pradhan to quit.
