Framing the unknowable: The role of language and frame multiplicity in early‐stage startup pitches
Abstract Research Summary Early‐stage startup pitches must make largely unknowable futures plausible. As such, they bear a rhetorical burden. This study theorizes how multiple frames jointly shape this burden and, consequently, affect investor evaluations. Specifically, it considers how future growth frames interact with concreteness and novelty frames.

Goffman, Action, and Risk Society: Aesthetic Reflexivity in Late Modernity
When I decided to write about edgework over twenty-five years ago, I had no idea that I had put myself on a pathway of sustained engagement with one of the most important sociologists of the twentieth century.

What Program for Love in the 21st Century? Thinking With and Beyond Luhmann
ABSTRACT From a sociological perspective, the paper examines how normative frameworks for intimate relationships have changed since the publication of Luhmann's Love as Passion (1982). Building on Luhmann's notion of a program for love, we discuss his claim that late 20th century love semantics were organized around a program of understanding. We argue

Modelling Suicide‐Related Communication Dynamics: A Socio‐Cybernetic Framework for Governance
ABSTRACT Suicide‐related phenomena (SPS) are often approached through individual‐level risk factors or moral framings, yet their population‐level dynamics depend critically on how ‘suicide’ becomes observable, circulates and is governed across functionally differentiated systems.

ABSTRACT Our theory of education, based on a systemic understanding of the subjective and intersubjective construction of knowledge, is that students are motivated to study what is most meaningful to them. Meaningfulness is grounded in the students' prior experiences, which are highly diverse.

Thermal Nonuniformity-Aware Reliability Screening for Systolic AI Accelerators
AI accelerators increasingly operate under tight power, thermal, voltage, and timing margins, making workload-dependent thermal nonuniformity an important reliability concern.

Looking for Trouble: Pre‐Intervention Monitoring in Human and AI Driver Training
We compare two types of situations involving monitoring of car driving: a driving instructor overseeing a trainee driver and a safety driver overseeing the performance of autonomous vehicle (AV) software. Our focus is on instances of monitoring that precede (1) interventions that are aborted before impacting the driving and (2) actual interventions on ...

Formation of Distance‐Based Orientation: Political Identity through Relational Positioning in Israel
Distance‐based orientation describes how pejorative labels may serve as anchor points for political identity. Existing research on political labeling has largely emphasized stigmatization, overlooking how labels may acquire durability and orienting capacity without losing pejorative force. Drawing on publicly circulating discourse, we trace positioning

AVS+: A Predictive Actuarial Guardbanding Framework for Aging-Aware Systolic Arrays
Voltage guardbanding protects digital systems against variation, noise, thermal stress, workload fluctuation, and aging, but static margins are increasingly pessimistic for spatially nonuniform AI accelerators.

An Outline of a Theory of Play
Play is often dismissed as trivial, yet it is a fundamental and adaptive aspect of human and mammalian life. This paper develops a sociological theory of play, treating it as a total social fact that spans biological, psychological, and social dimensions.
