I am a bit concerned that scenario 2 below is taking place in Denmark right now. Many large changes as part of "opening up". And with large time delay in hospitalizations due to COVID-19's slow progression, we're not taking the time to wait and observe the effect of each change.

Worth reposting! At the onset of an epidemic, we'd observe exponential growth. Then, if we take immediate action, any success in flattening the curve would look like an over-reaction 😅 H/t @gdinwiddie for the image on the left; then @jmoening replied w/ the one on the right.

My fantastic PhD student @siggasvala has just handed in her PhD thesis on the Data Science of Sleep - and the presence of Icelandic poetry to open up chapter 1 bodes well for the thesis a a whole :)

This super-thread by @CT_Bergstrom laying out the key points from our recent paper on confidence intervals for ensembles of curves is crystal clear and captures the essence of our arguments beautifully.

Favorite thread of recent memory! Great meditation on why philosophy is important to science. Can't wait to read the book.

If I had to follow just one account on Twitter, it would be @CT_Bergstrom . Good science, incredible variety, and an attitude that warms my rational old heart.

We're still accepting applications for our PhD project in Characterizing Temporal Social Networks using Dynamic Embeddings. The project is part of a larger study to develop computational tools for the analyses of large dynamic complex networks.

"Explaining the filter bubble" with @sapiezynski is out now. In this episode @sapiezynski does an *outstanding* - job of laying out his work to understand biases in Facebook's ad delivery. Clear and engrossing. Do not miss. #LazyPod

Did they just take the log of the sardines and do a linear fit to figure this out? Is it even scale free or actually just a broad distribution? What's the exponent? So many questions. Perhaps we need to get @aaronclauset involved!

Monday is @DirkBrockmann day on #toolazypod ! We talk about complexity, evolution, collaboration, and much more. Our talk works fully as an audio-podcast, but everyone ought to see these cool drawings Dirk made in order to breathe extra life into some of his examples.

Ahahaha. I just keep staring at the location of mathematics and statistics. No need to worry about those "not useful" and "time-consuming to acquire" topics if you're interested in data skills. Good night and good luck, universe😂

This is quite a gem, published by @HarvardBiz (authored by Chris Littlewood). This is the "prioritization matrix" HBR came up with when thinking about data skills to invest in and explore. Nothing screams "I don't know what I'm talking about" more than this.

I got to read the fantastic paper "The universal visitation law of human mobility" and write about it for @NatureNV with @lau_retti . Check it out here:

I made a pop culture reference and ended up (erroneously and embarrassingly) connecting SkyNet to the movie WarGames. But excited to be subsequently corrected in the plenary session by Danish MP @stinuslindgreen . Amazing to experience politicians who care deeply about the facts

Just finished "the age of surveillance capitalism". Floored that something like this can emerge from a single human. I was genuinely blown away by the scope and depth. MiniReview: Is there a book classification equivalent of mind altering substance? Required reading for our age.
