Lots of interesting talks today at the first British NetSci Symposium

The UK-Ireland Digital Humanities Association conference in London 29-30 June. For members of the digital humanities community including those in GLAM organisations, the creative industries, and the technology sector. digitalhumanities-uk-ie.org/news-events/an…

@tiagopeixoto Second part of answer is not complete garbage. It is easy to manipulate networks using the wide range of built in algorithms in Networkx so often I don't need more. But serious projects on large graphs, multiple samples of random graph ensembles or slow measures need much more.

Complete garbage.

The Connected Past meeting in Heraklion on Crete started with @tombrughmans opening the workshop. Really looking forward to hearing all the ways people use networks in archaeology #connectedpast connectedpast.net

@kafedjiska I would also add this. Avoid jargon, replace it with clear language. Did you really need that technical term for your audience? Always avoid abbreviations if you can, that is what global search and replace is for.

7. Be Clear by being accurate and brief & additionally by avoiding words like: this is; they; it; which - especially if you have made several points, making it unclear what “this” refers to.

Do you struggle with writing down your scientific work? Here are some tips from me that have helped me write whole chapters in only a weekend and my master thesis in a week! 😅 #WritingCommunity #AcademicTwitter #phdlife #phdvoice @AcademicChatter @PhDVoice @PhDinGermany

@MTB_Archaeology Perhaps we should ask for a correction in such cases. Then editors will start to take it seriously so then referees and finally authors. A lot of "openwashing" around in academia

The problem with doing big-data archaeology projects & making those data available free to all researchers: Researchers who use those data and don’t even bother to cite your work. Citations matter, because they provide a metric for demonstrating how impactful your work is. (1/8)

Why ordered networks should have communities of disconnected nodes. doi.org/10.1007/s41109… Antichains as communities in directed acyclic graphs as the Greek gods show @VVasiliauskaite

@electricarchaeo @Iza_Romanowska "She's a model and she's looking good" now I can't get the Kraftwerk song "The Model" out of my head (or is it called "the model"?) thanks for lively discussion illuminating commute into my last week of teaching.
