faculty_hiring_us: Faculty hiring networks in the US (2022)
Networks of faculty hiring for all PhD-granting US universities over the decade 2011–2020. Each node is a PhD-granting institution, and a directed edge (i,j) indicates that a person received their PhD from node i and was tenure-track faculty at node j during time of collection (2011-2020). This dataset is divided into separate networks for all 107 fields, as well as aggregate networks for 8 domains, and an overall network for …

The Santa Barbara Foresters captured their 11th NBC World Series championship

Heat claimed more than 200,000 lives in Europe since 2022: WHO
More than 200,000 lives have been lost to the "silent killer" of heat in Europe since 2022, the World Health Organization said Thursday, after a heat wave saw some countries record their highest-ever May temperatures.

Weil ich gerade sehr merkwürdige Follower kriege und es ja wohl auch eine Schwemme an (schlafenden) Fake-Accounts gibt:
Accounts ohne Bio und ohne irgendwelche Beiträge, anhand derer ich erkennen kann, dass es sich um eine echte interessierte Person handelt, entferne ich.
Bei Gelegenheit werde ich diesen Sommer in den Ferien auch mal aufräumen und inaktive Accounts rauswerfen.
Manche sind nach 2022/23 ganz offensichtlich einfach weitergezogen.

The NYT says it is reviewing columnist Nick Kristof's work that favorably mentioned former donors to his 2022 Oregon governor bid, including Bill Gates (Max Tani/Semafor)

Exclusive: New York Times’ Kristof quoted former campaign donors in columns
The paper had promised that Nick Kristof would disclose when someone he reported on was a donor to his Oregon gubernatorial campaign.

Suomen myydyin kala on kuolemansairas. Yli 50 miljoonaa Norjassa kasvatettua lohta kuolee joka vuosi stressiin ja sydänsairauksiin. MOT selvitti, millaisissa oloissa suomalaisten suosikkiruoka kasvaa.

In 2022 I drove across Canada from Ottawa to northern BC. I remember driving for three full days around the top of Lake Superior with a wall of mostly dead trees on either side of the road the whole way, thinking, man when Ontario burns, there's going to be no stopping it. And here we are.

Trump bricht bei „Meet the Press" (NBC) das Interview ab, als Moderatorin Kristen Welker ihn nach Belegen für seine „rigged elections"-Behauptung fragt. Seine Antwort: „Ich muss nur hinschauen." Auf ihren Einwand, das sei kein Beweis, beschimpft er NBC, ABC, CBS & CNN als „krumme Sender" und geht. Belege? Wie immer: keine. NBC stufte danach mehrere Aussagen als falsch ein. Schon 2022 lief ein NPR-Interview genauso.

If multicast is the answer, what was the question?

If Multicast is the Answer -- What was the Question?
Multicast is (almost) as old as the Internet, having become a tool for increasing network efficiency but also enabling destination discovery in a number of key use cases, although misaligned economic interests have limited its deployment to domain-local usages. But recent advances in multicast technologies as well as the identification of new use cases for which IP multicast may be ill fitted yet network-level support may be desirable motivate to re-think old perceptions of multicast and its us…

Just did very approximate calculations; with 10g of lithium per drone*, and assuming the Russian and Ukrainian drone efforts consume 5m units a year**, that'd be ~50 tons of lithium deposited into the environment per year, mostly within, let's say, 50km of the grey zone***. It's only about $20,000 / ton****, which means $1m of metal*****.
So to answer my own silly question: no, it won't be economically viable to scalp the top few inches of topsoil and extract the lithium from it.
* Roughly right for quadcopters / small FPV; larger and longer range ones will have more, so this is a bottom bound. (OTOH longer range UAVs will tend to use ICE kerosene rather than batteries
** Changing all the time as both sides try expanding production as fast as they can manage. Ua are scaling much faster at time of writing
*** Handwaving. Contact zone's hardly moved since early 2023; OTOH Ua are pushing range limits on small battery-powered form factor, saw a 60km claim for the Logistics Lockdown operation the other day
**** There was a big spike to the $70-8000 range in 2022; median price is closer to $10k than $20k
***** (IDK the chemistry but presumably it's in an exciting range of different compounds, depending on how many bits the battery was blown into, how hot / pressured the blast wave was a few tens of mm from the boom, what other stuff was in the vicinity that the lithium would combine with, etc etc.
