crime: Rosenfeld crime network (1991)
A network of associations among suspects, victims, and/or witnesses involved in crimes in St. Louis in the 1990s. Data are derived from police records, via snowball sampling from five initial homicides. Left nodes are people, right nodes are crime events, and edges connect people to particular crimes events they were associated with. Metadata includes names, genders, and roles (suspects, victims, and/or witnesses).
This network has 1380 nodes…

The proper way to peace in #Ukraine hasn't changed since March of 2022, although it has gotten steadily harder in that time:
Give Ukraine any and all assistance they ask for, without restriction, short of foreign combat troops. Empower them to obliterate the Russian army with every weapon and strategic tool we have. Reclaim all territory, including Crimea.
And then welcome Ukraine in…

The effort required to maintain a house does not increase linearly.
It increases geometrically with the number of adults, and exponentially with the number of children.

2021 hatte ich meine persönliche Microsoft-Linux-Gleiche, und 2016 schon die Windows-Linux-Gleiche. 1991 kam der PC mit MS-DOS ins Haus, 5 Jahre später hatte ich dann dem Druck zu Windows 95 nachgegeben, auch wenn ich anfangs meist direkt zu MS-DOS gebootet hatte.

Since then, he appeared in 152 movies that have grossed over $27 Billion, making him the highest-grossing actor in history. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samuel_L._Jackson #til #todayilearned https://www.reddit.com/r/todayilearned/comments/1pzt0je/til_that_samuel_l_jackson_has_been_sober_for_34/

When it's observable that the very rich are steadily growing richer while the vast majority of people are growing poorer, it's obvious that the tax system is not neutral: it is actively redistributing wealth upwards. For the tax system to be neutral, it MUST tax the very rich much more. To do so is not redistributive, at least until it actively causes a net movement of wealth towards the poor: rather it is simply neutral.

How Has Inequality Changed? - Equality Trust
Levels of inequality changed dramatically over the course of the 20th century. Overall income inequality fell from a high point in the 1930s, remained fairly static until 1979, and then increased dramatically from 1979 to 1991. Since 1991, the trend has been more volatile, affected by Great Recession of the late 2000s and the Covid-19 […]

Good Morning #Canada
#HappyBirthday to Arthur Kent, born December 27, 1953 in MedicineHat, Alberta. Now well known as an experienced and trusted Canadian television journalist and author, he rose to international prominence during the 1991 Persian Gulf War during which he acquired the nickname "The Scud Stud". He is the brother of Canada's former Minister of the Environment Peter Kent. I have an impression from this 2018 interview with Kent that there's some dissatisfaction with the state of the news media, an industry much criticized in the 7 years since. There are some interesting insights from a journalist that has experienced and reported on significant events in recent history.

Good Morning #Canada
2026 has been designated as the International Year of the Woman Farmer by the United Nations, in an effort to increase and improve food security across the planet. Once again we call upon the fairer sex to save humanity.
Women led farms are on the rise in Canada. From the 2021 #StatsCan report, there were 80,000 female farm operators, representing 30% of total farm operators, up from 25% in 1991. In general female participation is increasing while men are decreasing. Farming is an industry where women operators can achieve wage parity with male counterparts because compensation is based on market conditions, but currently most women led farms are smaller with less annual revenues.
A helpful #AI tells me a female farmer could could be called a farmerette, a farmeress, or farmHER. So helpful...

Good Morning #Canada
We are almost at the end of our #CanadianCapitals series and today's post is about the sunniest city in Canada. Yellowknife and its surrounding water bodies were named after a local Dene tribe, who were known as the "Copper Indians" or "Yellowknife Indians", because they traded tools made from copper deposits near the Arctic Coast. Yellowknife is a relatively new capital becoming the seat of Government for the Northwest Territories in 1967. The settlement was founded in 1934 with the discovery of gold and became a centre of economic activity in the NWT. As gold production began to decrease, Yellowknife shifted from being a mining town to a centre of government services in the 1980s but a new mining boom started with the discovery of diamonds north of the city in 1991. Established on the shore of the world's 9th largest lake, Yellowknife is a popular tourist destination for watching the Northern Lights.
