If you wonder what this was about: Tiago Peixoto just blocked my repost of the #netsci preprint "Graphs are maximally expressive for higher-order interactions" (arxiv.org/pdf/2602.16937) by #tiago.skewed.de, @piratepeel.bsky.social, @manlius.bsky.social, and @thilogross.bsky.social ... 1/4

"A data table comparing empirical urban scaling exponents to the Information Energy Maximization (IEM) model. Using the connectivity tax constant ks = 0.22, the model predicts an infrastructure exponent of 1.22, showing a 0.00 deviation from PNAS Nexus empirical data for the 1.22 urban limit. It also aligns with Kleiber’s Law (0.75) for biological metabolic scaling."

Verification of the 1.22 Urban Scaling limit using Information Energy Maximization (IEM). Results show 0.00 deviation from PNAS Nexus data using constant \bm{k_s = 0.22}.

The shading of visual intuition has to stop!

Nothing about this node-link diagram is "ridiculous":

"we can visualize and describe the distribution of corruption risk [...] find that highly centralized markets tend to have higher corruption risk [...] In all EU [...]".

Just found a 5½ hours recording of my 2003 summer party DJ set at the Max-Planck for #ArtHistory in Rome. It has lots of static and includes the big Italian power outage ending the party. Pretty epic to have this #NetSci moment on tape.

10 years ago, I went to my first #NetSci. I had just finished my PhD, had nothing to present, knew nobody, but I knew I was finally where I wanted to be. Fascinating science and people. I feel very lucky to have helped organize @netsciconf.bsky.social this year and to have brought my great students!
