facebook_friends: Maier Facebook friends (2014)
A small anonymized Facebook ego network, from April 2014. Nodes are Facebook profiles, and an edge exists if the two profiles are "friends" on Facebook. Metadata gives the social context for the relationship between ego and alter.
This network has 362 nodes and 1988 edges.

CFO Palantir talking about how they're working to make the various data streams of surveillance efficiently useful and remove the needle-in-a-haystack anonymity we have previously enjoyed. Awesome.

Short progress update of refining my Kallitype recipe & workflow:
- Left: a couple of months ago, initial homemade formula, very rusty brown, blotchy and low contrast
- Middle: mid December, double coating, no more staining, better contrast, but not fully cleared emulsion
- Right: last night, pre-wetting plus ammonium dichromate (1 drop) for much better contrast, perfect clearing (without any masking)
Progress! 🤩
