It’s a new and surprising chapter in the theory of evolution. According to recent studies, it’s in our cities, of all places, that animals and plants adapt particularly quickly to changing living conditions.
Nature's response to the spread of cities is astonishing: Why do catfish in the river of a French city systematically prey on urban pigeons on the banks? Why do female birds on a university campus in California suddenly change their mating behavior? How do mice in New York's Central Park cope with an altered diet of human food waste? How have killifish in the Atlantic built up resistance to deadly chemical waste? And, is it possible for moths to adapt to nighttime light pollution?
New research provides surprising new insights into Darwin's theory of evolution. Nowhere else do animals and plants adapt so quickly to new living conditions as in cities. Biologists have long known that animals and plants occupy new habitats in the vicinity of humans. But now, new genetic analyses show that these adaptations are accompanied by significant changes in DNA.
Even more surprising: these evolutionary changes have not occurred over periods of millennia, but within just a few decades. The process has amazed scientists, who watch as nature transforms even our most hostile man-made interventions -- pollution, light pollution, noise, garbage and dense development -- into creative energy for new adaptations. Some researchers believe that our cities may soon develop their own, brand-new life forms.
What are the implications of these developments for the balance between humans and nature on our planet?

It’s mostly in evidence during the carnival season across the archipelago that’s located in the Atlantic off the coast of Senegal.
Each of the Cape Verde islands has its own charm and its own diverse landscape: from dramatic volcanic landscapes to the lush gardens of Sao Antão and the endless sandy beaches of Sao Vicente.
The documentary observes the everyday lives of Cape Verde people and hears about their dreams and aspirations. People like the young singer Claudia, the drummer Nuno and Catarina - the carnival queen.
They all love the typical music of Cape Verde, the "morna”, made famous throughout the world by Cesária Évora. It’s best described as a kind of plaintive blues that touches the soul and speaks of lovesickness, longing and the challenges of life. The young singer Claudia idolises Évora. She studies law, but dreams of a career on the stage. Music is her passion and she devotes all her free time to singing and playing the guitar.
Music is also a big deal for drummer Nuno. He leads the drum band at carnival time, the most important date in the Cape Verde calendar. People look forward to this festival for months and anyone who can take part in the preparations, does. Dentist Catarina has a prominent role this year: She’s attending as the carnival queen and is having an elaborate costume made for the big day. Will her appearance be a success?

Cattle meat and hides are a huge economic driver. But this business often involves the illegal destruction of the rainforest for grazing land.
"The forest is our home. And now it’s all being destroyed forever.” Wenatoa Parakanã stands outside her cabin in the dense rainforest of the Brazilian Amazonas and is close to tears. The young Parakanã woman has lived her whole life in the remote region of Apyterewa - about a day’s motorboat trip to the next small town.
But for several years now, life for Wenatoa has been changing beyond recognition. Strangers are coming to threaten her village, chop down the trees and turn her homeland into gigantic pasture lands for thousands of cattle. Over the last 20 years, an area of forest almost as large as Germany has been logged in the region - often illegally. Many researchers fear that the Amazonas has already reached its tipping point: It can no longer recover from the many fires and droughts. This could have devastating consequences for the global climate.
On a local level, only very few people dare to oppose the illegal destruction of the rainforest. After all, the animals’ meat and hides are a huge economic driver. Every year, the Brazilian tannery industry exports products valued at more than one billion Euros. These products are sold all over the world. And as the research for this film shows: some of them are also ending up in German luxury cars.
With intrepid journeys to the heart of the action, footage secretly filmed in abattoirs, interviews with insiders and the latest digital research techniques, the team retraces the production steps of this illegal leather right to its source. From the Brazilian rainforest, via shady middlemen to German car dealerships offering the latest models by BMW, Mercedes & Co. - complete with their luxurious leather interiors.
The film embarks on a journalistic quest for clues that turns into an economic crime thriller. After all, this isn’t an isolated case, it’s systematic environmental exploitation. Despite the many glossy brochures touting the carmakers’ sustainability credentials, these complex supply chains are often opaque - keeping their impact on people and the environment in the dark.

For many Americans, the mighty, almost 4,000-kilometer-long river is closely linked to the nation's history.
People have lived along these riverbanks for several thousand years. Today, the river unites many different cultures and is considered the soul of America. When the Europeans arrived, they colonized the land here, killing and displacing the indigenous peoples. But before that, the Choctaw people lived between present-day Memphis and the mouth of the river near New Orleans. Today, their descendants form the Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians.
But these central American regions have an image problem. "Flyover states" - places that you only fly over - has become a catchphrase. But if you take a closer look, you’ll discover small and large wonders here, including unique cultures and almost overwhelming nature, as well as old traditions imbued with new life.
Many things are being rediscovered on the banks of the Mississippi, including voodoo in New Orleans. Voodoo has been at home here for a long time and no longer needs to hide itself. Formerly demonized, people are now looking more and more respectfully at the religion.
The film takes us on a journey from the birthplace of rock'n'roll, Memphis, to the mighty delta of the Mississippi.

The region has just 530,000 inhabitants, while as many as 33 million overnight stays are recorded every year. Too many, according to locals.
Tourism in South Tyrol is getting out of hand. In the high season, villages and mountain passes are completely congested. For many visitors, the dream of seeing the ‘Three Peaks’ up close ends when police are forced to close the mountain’s access road due to overcrowding. Access to another attraction, the Pragser Wildsee lake, is also regulated: An Italian TV series was filmed here around 10 years ago. Then, images of the beauty spot were beamed around the world on social media. Now, too many people want to visit.
Mountain guide Erwin Steiner, a member of the traffic commission, is committed to reducing vehicle traffic -- and preserving the nature that constitutes his livelihood. But there are plans afoot to further expand the tourist infrastructure -- with a view to hosting the 2026 Olympics. Conservationists like architect Marlene Roner are fighting to preserve this World Natural Heritage Site. These two activists team up with representatives of the Alpine Association and local heritage organizations. Against the stunning backdrop of the Dolomites, they adopt a manifesto dedicated to protecting the mountains.
With the South Tyrolean government's Tourism Development Concept 2030+, the debate over how to deal with the region’s natural heritage has grown heated. In particular, the plan to cap the number of beds has met with resistance from the hotel and restaurant industries. What is a World Heritage designation actually worth? Does it really help to protect a unique landscape - or just serve to market it?

The war waged by Israel in response to the Hamas terror attacks of October 7, 2023 has divided the international community. The question now is: what comes next?
DW reporter Mohammed Al-Kahlout lives and works in the Gaza Strip. Since the war broke out, he has been filming people’s everyday lives and the suffering and devastation around him. According to the World Health Organization, only a handful of Gaza’s 36 hospitals are in any way functional, as there is no fuel for the generators and hardly any medication. According to the UN, 1.9 of the 2.3 million people living in Gaza are now displaced within the small strip of land. Mohammed is a journalist but also a victim of this war; he and his family have to constantly flee Israeli army bombardments. According to the Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ), over 80 journalists have already died in the war. On the way back from filming, rockets were fired at Mohammed's colleagues’ car. Two journalists were killed.
International endeavors to negotiate a lasting cease-fire have so far failed. One of Israel's conditions is that Hamas, designated as a terrorist organization by many countries, must release all hostages taken to Gaza. The longer the war goes on, the greater the concern as to whether Israelis and Palestinians can ever peacefully co-exist. Palestinian politicians, Israeli pollsters, political scientists and independent experts on international law all have their say in our documentary. Which scenarios for the Gaza Strip are being discussed, and which of them are realistic?
For on-going news coverage and current updates on Gaza, please visit the DW News channel on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/dwnews or the DW website: https://www.dw.com/en/top-stories/s-9097
[Editor's Note: On January 26, the International Court of Justice (ICJ) ordered Israel to prevent acts of genocide against Palestinians in Gaza and do more to help civilians. The court ruled on South Africa's request for "provisional measures" against Israel amid claims of state-led genocide in its war against Hamas militants in the Palestinian territory. It stopped short of ordering a cease-fire as requested by South Africa. For more information visit: https://p.dw.com/p/4bhbM ]

ПАЦИЕНТКА ЭЛИСА: Искусственный интеллект, страдающий галлюцинациями о пропавшем кукольном спектакле. Эти галлюцинации необходимо стереть.
ТИП ГЕНЕРАТИВНОЙ МОДЕЛИ: Диффузионная.
ПРЕДПИСАННОЕ ЛЕЧЕНИЕ: метод редактирования скрытого пространства, который включает в себя откат, матрицу Якоби, собственные лица и SVD.

В этом видео экспериментировался с другим подходом, сочетая научно-фантастическую детективную историю, рассказанную с помощью аналоговых эффектов VHS, с объяснением совсем недавней статьи о редактировании скрытого пространства в диффузионных моделях. Это моя единственная запись на #some3
Ссылка на статью, на основе которой это было сделано:
«Неконтролируемое обнаружение скрытых семантических направлений в моделях диффузии»

Не стесняйтесь просто посмотреть несколько разделов, о которых вы хотите узнать больше.
------------------------
4. ОШИБКИ
4.1. В этом видео говорится о необходимости найти сингулярные векторы для «вычисления якобиана», но это плохо сформулировано; на самом деле это означает расчеты с использованием якобиана, например, «чтобы J^T * J вычислить SVD и получить редактируемые направления». Матрица Якоби, как указано в статье, вычисляется с помощью «карты признаков узкого места H», объединенной в пул, чтобы уменьшить количество вычисляемых параметров.
4.2. В этом видео говорится, что SVD используется для вычисления как якобиана, так и семантических направлений. Но в статье СВД фактически используется только для получения смысловых направлений. Для вычисления SVD в разделе 3.2 последующей статьи используется степенной метод для вычисления сингулярных векторов без вычисления (M^T)(M). Обновленная версия исправит это, указав, что «уменьшение размерности» должно быть выполнено для J перед умножением на него; в статье этого не было сделано, поэтому в видео будет использован другой подход для объяснения уменьшения размерности. Это решило бы «круговую проблему», связанную с необходимостью использования якобиана J для вычисления J^T J, чтобы получить собственные векторы, используемые для вычисления J.
Ссылка на статью «Понимание скрытого пространства диффузионных моделей»
через призму римановой геометрии»:
4.3. Другие исправления (для будущего обновления):
37:35: Это может ввести в заблуждение; сингулярные векторы игнорируются, а не отбрасываются, поэтому матрица будет иметь такой же размер, но с уменьшенным рангом
46m: это транспонирование должно переключить элементы на строку a c и строку b d
53 минуты 20 секунд: здесь должно быть написано «квадратный корень из собственных значений».
55м55с: это глюк звука. это должно быть «ты не был таким»
4.4. Дополнения к субтитрам:
37м: добавлено - "это слишком много для их расчета (для нахождения J^T*J для метрики отката)"
54м15с: добавлено- "Мне еще нужны алгоритмы (чтобы получить собственные векторы без вычисления M^T M)"
В будущем может быть загружена обновленная версия с улучшенным повествованием и визуальными эффектами (например, голосом пациента во второй половине). Это видео не было повторно загружено с исправлениями, поскольку крайний срок для #SoME3 — 18 августа.
---
В ближайшее время может быть снято закулисное видео, более подробно рассказывающее о статье, на которой он основан. В нем будут рассмотрены некоторые проблемы, не объясненные (из-за времени) в видео.

,1,Philip Ryan, Political Editor of the Irish Independent joins Pat Kenny as they react to the news that Eamon Ryan is stepping down as the leader of the Green Party.
Eamon Ryan has confirmed that he is stepping down as Green Party leader.
Minister Ryan said he was leaving his role to “pass the torch to a new generation of leaders, confident in the strength and values I have seen built up in our party over all these years”.
He said he would not be standing for re-election to the Dáil.
He will remain in his role as leader and minister until a new party leader is elected – and will spend the remaining months of this Government in “whatever new role” the next party leader chooses for him.
"Sustainable and secure"
Minister Ryan said he was extremely proud of what the Green Party has achieved in Government – noting that he has helped “set the country on a course to a more sustainable and secure future”.
“Social integration is integral to green politics,” he said.
“Investing in public transport and safe streets helps the disadvantaged the most.
“Relying on our own renewable energy keeps money in our country and creates good jobs that last.
“Paying to restore nature will help marginal farming systems most of all.
“This is the best for rural as well as urban Ireland.”
Minister Ryan said his biggest regret is that under his watch, “a narrative has taken hold that we are not concerned about rural Ireland, that solutions are costing people and that we are not connected to the man and woman on the street.”
He said none of that is true and warned that divisive politics will not work if we are to see “the scale and speed of change that has to be made”.
"Our motivation comes from a love of creation and our place within it,” he said.
“We seek benefits for every place and every community in the transition we need to make.”
Social media
He said convincing people of the party’s vision has not been easy “because we've also been the subject of a relentless attack, particularly on social media”.
“It seems, at times, that we are subject to coordinated attacks in the comments section, following any posts we made,” he said.
“I decided to ignore the worst comments even when it included vile statements about my own recently deceased father some five years ago.
“But the level of invective has only increased, especially in the last year, and I think it poisons the well of public thinking about our agenda and not just our party.
“That's one of the reasons why it's so important that we cherish and build strong, impartial and independent media and that we put the future funding in place so that people can trust that they're getting accurate information on what is happening in our world.
“You could despair about the future of our democracy if you were just to live in that algorithm-driven, polarising online world; however, I am so hopeful about what is to come next.”
New generation
He said he spent the last few days talking to the candidates who put themselves forward for the Green Party in the recent elections and was inspired by their continued determination to serve the public.
“In leaving my leadership role, I will be asking a new generation of young people to take up this honourable public role by joining our party and joining us in meeting and listening to the public when the next election comes, as well as making our case,” he said.
Minister Ryan said he will continue to work on climate action – but cannot continue to work the long hours that being a public representative involves.
Career
Eamon Ryan has served as a councillor, TD and Minister during his 30-year career.
He has led the Green Party since 2011.

,1,It’s a new and surprising chapter in the theory of evolution. According to recent studies, it’s in our cities, of all places, that animals and plants adapt particularly quickly to changing living conditions.
Nature's response to the spread of cities is astonishing: Why do catfish in the river of a French city systematically prey on urban pigeons on the banks? Why do female birds on a university campus in California suddenly change their mating behavior? How do mice in New York's Central Park cope with an altered diet of human food waste? How have killifish in the Atlantic built up resistance to deadly chemical waste? And, is it possible for moths to adapt to nighttime light pollution?
New research provides surprising new insights into Darwin's theory of evolution. Nowhere else do animals and plants adapt so quickly to new living conditions as in cities. Biologists have long known that animals and plants occupy new habitats in the vicinity of humans. But now, new genetic analyses show that these adaptations are accompanied by significant changes in DNA.
Even more surprising: these evolutionary changes have not occurred over periods of millennia, but within just a few decades. The process has amazed scientists, who watch as nature transforms even our most hostile man-made interventions -- pollution, light pollution, noise, garbage and dense development -- into creative energy for new adaptations. Some researchers believe that our cities may soon develop their own, brand-new life forms.
What are the implications of these developments for the balance between humans and nature on our planet?
