Sharing this Time Series Analysis Handbook put together by our first batch of PhD in Data Science students. The handbook extensively covers time series analysis and forecasting, delving from the most fundamental methods to the state-of-the-art.

"The aim of this handbook is to serve as a practitioner’s guide to forecasting, enabling them to better understand relationships in signals."

Using the data from @beatty opencheck project, I have represented the ORCID (left, ~1900 users) and the TWITTER/MASTODON (right, 2250 users) networks.
Color encodes communities, size the # of connections.
In the right-hand one, the bottom-right (green) group consists of many complexity scientists!

Honey Dijon's "Black Girl Magic" is da bomb! I have already been playing "Show me Some Love" on my sets, but there is way more in this. #House #Techno #Disco

First message in a bottle:
Estimating the impact of COVID-19 vaccine allocation inequities: a modeling study
- counterfactual scenarios assuming for lower and middle income countries the same per capita daily vaccination rate reported in selected high income countries
- more than 50% of deaths that occurred in the analyzed countries could have been averted

If you're looking for some quality science writing, my friend Olivia Judson has a new piece over at Aeon (no paywall).
"Darwin, of course, is famous for his work on evolution. His book On the Origin of Species (1859) laid out a wealth of evidence that evolution occurs, and proposed a mechanism – natural selection – for how it does so. Although much has been learned since, and many of his ideas have been extended, corrected or refined, the Origin remains the founding text of modern biology, and is the pinnacle of Darwin’s work. But Darwin’s first scientific monograph and his last – the two bookends of his thoughts, so to speak – were both about how animals have, over vast spans of time, transformed the landscape."

I started collecting #mastoadmin resources some time ago: https://github.com/mszell/mastodaminresources
Hope it can be useful (also for non-admins). Please help adding to it! 🐘 🤍
I was looking for a new review of neuroevolution, thanks @manlius !

Raphaël Glucksmann's "Lettre à la génération qui va tout changer" is a very exciting read. It made me feel very connected to younger generations and the possibility of change. It also highlights how much of a losing proposition identity politics is, with its ultimate reduction of the Republic to individuals and their identities. Effective action --- and indeed the pleasure of being in a Republic, a city --- lies in the universal, not in the individual aspects of citizens. Unity is Powerful.
"'To restore the republic everywhere' is to restore every citizen to the command post in each of us. We are more than men and women, more than rich and poor, more than believers or atheists, more than Christians or Muslims, more than black or white, more than heterosexual or homosexual, more than individual persons: we are citizens. There is a universal part of us that fades away when we don't cultivate it, when we don't regularly make the effort to get out of ourselves".
