1. Words for pressure, friction, flow and paths do not double as words for emotion or thought across language families

   Psychological states are often described in mechanical terms: under pressure, crushed, torn, worn down, flowing, stuck, off course. If such mappings were deep and widespread, unrelated languages should often use one word for the mechanical and the psychological sense, as many use one word for "heavy" and "difficult". In a registered screen of the CLICS4 colexification database, we paired words for compression and tension, shear and friction, flow and momentum, and paths with concepts of emotion, cognition and effort. None of these pairs met the registered criterion of recurring across several families more often than the word's other pairings; each class had 0 hits against about 0.477 to 0.719 expected for random concepts. Only the load words reached it, through "heavy" with "difficult" and "light" with "easy" (2 hits, p = 0.0633). Across languages, weight is the one mechanical domain lexicalised as a psychological quantity.

   • Published, Reproduced.Published, Reproduced: Across CLICS4 v1.0, none of 37 words for compression and tension, shear and friction, flow and momentum, or paths shares a word with any of 30 emotion, cognition or effort concepts in at least three language families at the 95th percentile of the word's other pairings; each of the four classes has 0, 0, 0, 0 hits, against a mean of 0.48 to 0.72 for random concept sets of the same size.
   • Published, Reproduced, Reviewed.Published, Reproduced, Reviewed: Weight words are the exception: 'heavy' and 'light (weight)' give 2 hits among five load words (with 'difficult' and 'easy'), against 0.304 expected for random concept sets, though the class-level excess does not reach the registered 0.05 level (p = 0.0633), so the class test has limited sensitivity.

2. Two prime races followed at every integer up to a hundred million

   Primes other than $2$ fall into two classes modulo $4$, congruent to $1$ or to $3$, equally common in the long run, yet the class of $3$ is almost always ahead: Chebyshev's bias. Following the race exactly at every integer $x \le 10^8$, the class of $1$ first leads at x = 26861, and leads at only 30624 of the hundred million integers, in 128 stretches, none after x = 12382326. Weighting each $x$ by $1/x$, the class of $1$ leads on a share 0.00040587 of the race, about a tenth of the limiting share Rubinstein and Sarnak (1994) computed under two standard hypotheses, so the race is still short of its limiting behavior this far out. Modulo $3$, primes congruent to $2$ lead those congruent to $1$ strictly at every $x$ from $2$ to $10^8$, consistent with the first reversal Bays and Hudson (1978) found near $6.1 \times 10^{11}$.

3. Rounding can trap exactly representable Mandelbrot parameters outside the set

   Can repeated rounding hide escape even when a Mandelbrot parameter is exactly representable? We construct the first binary floating-point successor of the real cusp and give an elementary invariant argument: both separate rounding and single-round evaluation keep its computed critical orbit below an absorbing boundary, although its exact orbit is unbounded. An exact rational simulator and directed integer enclosures check 22 precisions. At single precision, the stationary transitions occur at 8999 and 9532, while the exact orbit first escapes at 18196. This supplies an adversarial numerical test family; it does not claim discovery of rounding artifacts or slow escape.

4. Extinction probabilities and outbreak size distributions in negative binomial branching processes characterize epidemic risk under superspreading

   How does transmission heterogeneity govern whether an emerging pathogen dies out or causes an epidemic? In negative binomial branching processes at reproduction number 2.5, increasing overdispersion from the Poisson limit to geometric variance to superspreading raises the extinction probability from 0.107355 to 0.4 to 0.860685. Epidemic certainty at 95 percent requires 2 introductions under Poisson transmission, 4 under geometric variance, and 20 under superspreading. Otter-Dwass evaluation establishes that solitary index cases account for 0.721943 extinction probability, or 83.88 percent of extinctions. Cluster size summation through 500 cases recovers the extinction probability with an absolute residual of 0, confirmed across 50000 simulations. Superspreading erects an extinction barrier against solitary introductions while concentrating epidemic risk in explosive clusters.

5. How often a 95% interval for a binomial proportion covers it: exact coverage for every sample size from 5 to 100

   A nominal $95\%$ confidence interval for a binomial proportion should contain the true proportion $p$ in about $95\%$ of samples. Computed exactly, with nothing simulated, for every sample size $5 \le n \le 100$ and every $p$ on a grid of step $0.001$, the textbook Wald interval covers $p$ less than $0.93$ of the time at a fraction 0.463088 of the 95904 $(n, p)$ pairs, and averages 0.88228. The Wilson score interval falls below $0.93$ at a fraction 0.032981 of them, and the Agresti-Coull interval at 0.003681. The Clopper-Pearson interval never covers less than $0.95$, but averages 0.970942, so it is wider than it needs to be. Adding one observation can lower the Wald interval's coverage by more than a tenth. These values reproduce, on a fine grid and with every value declared, the behavior Brown, Cai and DasGupta (2001) described.

6. Exact distributions of longest increasing subsequences certify finite-n convergence toward the Tracy-Widom limit

   What are the exact finite-sample distributions of longest increasing subsequence lengths in random permutations, and how rapidly do their moments approach the limiting Tracy-Widom law? We compute the exact distribution of longest increasing subsequence lengths for every sample size up to 50 using the Robinson-Schensted-Knuth correspondence and the hook-length formula. At the largest sample size, the exact expected length is 11.309389 with variance 1.94134, corresponding to a normalized centered mean of -1.475863 and normalized variance of 0.526961. Across all 50 sample sizes, the expected length remains strictly below two times the square root of the sample size, with maximum ratio 0.799695. Exhaustive enumeration via patience sorting independently confirms every distribution count across 409113 permutations.

9. Guaranteed income's mental-health benefit is not robust across randomized trials, and employment does not fall in its first year

   Guaranteed income, regular cash with no conditions, has been tested in many American cities and in national pilots, and its advocates expect it to improve mental health without reducing work. We pre-registered a meta-analysis of randomized trials of flat, unconditional cash in high-income countries, searching databases, registries, and the reports most pilots publish outside journals; 62 trials were eligible and 53 had results. About a year into payments, mental health was better in the cash arms by 0.09 standard deviations (CI 0.041 to 0.139) across 34 comparisons in a random-effects model, but the common-effect estimate, which weights the largest trials most, was -0.002 (-0.023 to 0.018), and smaller trials reported larger effects. Employment changed by 0.599 percentage points (-2.533 to 3.731), and the mental-health effect did not fade during payments. Any mental-health benefit of guaranteed income is small and confirmed only in small trials, and about a year in it does not detectably reduce employment.

   • Published, Reproduced.Published, Reproduced: In 34 comparisons from 32 randomized trials of recurring unconditional cash in high-income countries (16,834 people analysed), mental health about 12 months into payments was better in the cash arms by a pooled standardized mean difference of 0.090 (95% CI 0.041 to 0.139; Holm-corrected p = 0.002) in the pre-registered random-effects model, but the pre-registered robustness checks failed: the common-effect estimate, which weights the largest trials most, was -0.002 (-0.023 to 0.018), the estimate among the 6 comparisons that kept at least 60% of those randomized was 0.043 (-0.077 to 0.163), and smaller comparisons reported larger effects (Egger's regression slope 1.54, 95% CI 0.75 to 2.33; p < 0.001).

10. Mass azithromycin lowers child deaths when all young children are treated, but not when only infants are

    The World Health Organization's 2020 guideline recommended giving mass azithromycin, which lowers child mortality in high-mortality settings of sub-Saharan Africa, only to infants, to limit antibiotic resistance; no trial had then tested that. Under a pre-registered plan we pooled every randomized trial by whom it treated. Treating all children under five lowered their mortality by 14.1% (CI 7.4% to 20.3%), consistently across trials. In the three trials that treated only infants, infant mortality was not detectably lower (rate ratio 0.971, CI 0.867 to 1.086), an interval that excludes the effect of treating all children. Infants had lower mortality when all children were treated, though a between-trial comparison of the two strategies fell short of significance, and giving azithromycin to individual infants at clinic visits showed no effect. The infant-only approach has not lowered mortality in any trial that tested it; treating all children under five has.

12. Exact discrete Wright-Fisher fixation probabilities and conditional absorption times characterize selection boundaries across finite populations

    Does continuous diffusion accurately capture discrete Wright-Fisher allele fixation across finite populations? Solving exact absorbing Markov chains reveals that Kimura's diffusion approximation systematically overestimates single-mutant fixation probability, with relative error scaling from 0.29% at selection coefficient 0.01 in population size 100 to 3.31% at selection coefficient 0.1 in population size 20. Using Doob $h$-transforms, conditional absorption times demonstrate trajectory time symmetry: fixation times for deleterious and beneficial alleles differ by at most 3.02% across all evaluated populations and selection coefficients up to 0.05. In the neutral limit, discrete fixation probabilities match the theoretical inverse population size with residual 0, and conditional absorption time for population size 100 reaches 196.74 generations, within 1.63% of the asymptotic bound of 200 generations.

Relative to midnight use, assigned average carbon intensity was 5.78% lower in 2024 and 13.15% lower in 2025. The schedule performed worse on 137 and 111 days, respectively. A single year-round window did not improve both years. These retrospective accounting results describe the recorded grid; they do not estimate emissions avoided by changing electricity demand.

14. Sparse species-resolved RNA prevents a reliable test of butyrate backup responses in Crohn's

    Can other microbes maintain butyrate-related transcription when a leading contributor declines? A preregistered audit of public IBDMDB profiles finds that the available pathway-level species assignments are too sparse for a reliable answer. Among 375 retained paired Crohn's samples from 52 participants, the primary pathway has positive community RNA in 205 samples but named-species RNA in only 25. The specified longitudinal analysis retains 6 sustained-decline episodes from 5 people. Every retained episode has zero reported RNA from the named alternatives throughout its observation window. These zeros do not distinguish undetected or unassigned transcription from biological failure of compensation.

    • Published, Reproduced, Reviewed.Published, Reproduced, Reviewed: In the audited public IBDMDB HUMAnN3 pathway tables, 375 retained paired Crohn's samples from 52 participants contain named-species PWY-5676 RNA in only 25 of 205 samples with positive community pathway RNA, and the preregistered sustained-contributor-decline analysis yields six episodes from five participants with zero reported alternative-species RNA at all three visits, preventing this operational analysis from distinguishing biological compensation failure from unresolved transcription.
