Answer to Vance: Zelenskyy has thanked our country over and over again both privately and publicly.
And our country thanks HIM and the Ukrainian patriots who have stood up to a dictator, buried their own & stopped Putin from marching right into the rest of Europe. Shame on you.

Ok, so they remove the DEI committee, and replace it with an ad-hoc committee, which just is not called DEI but maybe somehow should do the same? What exactly is changing? The part I find most questionable is to "be sunsetting [...] its related statements". Why do you feel the need specify that?

I think another equally important question is whether European NATO countries can guarantee their own security without Ukraine on their side in the future.

Here’s a story with some numbers. The proposed cuts are unfathomable: a 60% reduction to NSF would be the end of American science as we know it.

Trudeau: Canada will retaliate with 25% tariffs on $155B of U.S. goods
YouTube video by CBC News Trudeau: Canada will retaliate with 25% tariffs on $155B of U.S. goods

Here's the speech if you haven't heard it. 13 minutes of your time. Share it with your American friends and neighbours, because they won't see it otherwise. Circulate it in Mexico and Denmark, France and the UK, Panama and Germany, Poland and Estonia, and especially -- especially -- Ukraine.

As a New Year tradition ever since my Integer Programming course grew large, it is time for marking the exams. This time, 224 handins await.

Power China erhÀlt Gebote für 16 Gigawattstunden in Speicher-Ausschreibung mit Durchschnittspreis von 66,3 US-Dollar pro Kilowattstunde Die Ausschreibung ist die grâßte Beschaffung von Energiespeichern in der Geschichte Chinas. Die Gebotspreise lagen zwischen 60,5 und 82 US-Dollar pro Kilowattstunde.

China baut gigantischen 16 GWh #Batteriespeicher, der rechnerisch πŸ‡©πŸ‡ͺ rund 1/3h mit Strom versorgen kΓΆnnte, fΓΌr rund 1 Mrd.€. Nicht teuer. Wir jammern lieber ΓΌber die #Dunkeflauteund die dumme #Energiewende. So wird das nix mit der TechnologiefΓΌhrerschaft.

I wish that many/all universities would take the example of RWTH Aachen.

LLM-ify me - Optimization edition LLMs are everywhere nowadays. But how do they fit into the optimization landscape?

A new blog post! This time about LLMs in optimization:

oberdieck.dk/p/llm-in-opt...

This is the first time I am writing something a bit longer, so please let me know what you think. I was seriously considering splitting this into three parts, but hey, maybe someone enjoys this :)

This alone is reason enough to quit X. Elon Musk is once again mocking Ukraine’s struggle to fight the Russian invasion. Terrible.

But don’t worry. Oklahoma is buying thousands of Bibles for their public schools.
