Panel talking about dark markets on nostr.
Nostr can be quite anonymous and encrypted and connected to payment via bitcoin. Can it therefore do Silk Road? Allow anonymous markets?
Nobody wants to publicly advocate for selling illegal drugs, but yeah, sure, people could do that. There's even protocol types for market places.
Relay owners might get into legal issues if they are forwarding illegal market listings. But this is true in general, there are also illegal images and even illegal text.
Nostr relays and Devs might find themselves in legal trouble anyway, due to the general legal crackdowns on internet requiring age proof and id on websites obstensively to protect kids. These are freedoms we all need to fight for. Perhaps brains will drain to more free jurisdictions? Devs move to where open development is legal? Not the panel at least. They want to say at home.

Super-minimally $3$-connected graphs
In this paper, we introduce super-minimally $k$-connected graphs, those $k$-connected graphs in which no proper subgraph is $k$-connected. For $k$ greater than or equal to three, this class lies strictly between the classes of minimally $k$-connected graphs and uniformly $k$-connected graphs. In particular, we determine the minimum number of degree-$3$ vertices in a super-minimally $3$-connected graph, thereby extending a result of Halin on minimally $3$-connected graphs. In addition, we determ…

Abstract: We present an in-depth analysis on how to build and train neural networks to estimate the spatial distribution of scattered radiation fields for radiation protection dosimetry in medical radiation fields, such as those found in Interventional Radiology and Cardiology. Therefore, we present three different synthetically generated datasets with increasing complexity for training, using a Monte-Carlo Simulation application based on Geant4. On those datasets, we evaluate convolutional and fully connected architectures of neural networks to demonstrate which design decisions work well for reconstructing the fluence and spectra distributions over the spatial domain of such radiation fields. All used datasets as well as our training pipeline are published as open source in separate repositories.

This paper proposes a unidirectionally connected fully actuated system (UC-FAS) approach for the sub-stabilization and tracking control of 6-DOF quadrotors, tackling limitations both in state-space and FAS framework to some extent.

By eliminating estimation of the high-order derivatives of control inputs, a drawback of current methods, the UC-FAS m…

Consequently, we relate, in a successful way, the geometric structure of such Fatou components (in terms of the…

Parameterized Complexity of Temporal Connected Components: Treewidth and k-Path Graphs
We study the parameterized complexity of maximum temporal connected components (tccs) in temporal graphs, i.e., graphs that deterministically change over time. In a tcc, any pair of vertices must be able to reach each other via a time-respecting path. We consider both problems of maximum open tccs (openTCC), which allow temporal paths through vertices outside the component, and closed tccs (closedTCC) which require at least one temporal path entirely within the component for every pair.

A degree sum condition for the existence of a quasi 5-contractible edge in a quasi 5-connected graph
An edge of a quasi $k$-connected graph is said to be quasi $k$-contractible if the contraction of the edge results in a quasi $k$-connected graph. We show that every 5-connected graph contains a quasi 5-contractible edge. Furthermore, we prove that a quasi 5-connected graph possesses a quasi 5-contractible edge, if the degree sum of any two vertices with distance at most two is at least 9. This result strengthens a theorem proved by Kriesell when $k=4$ (M. Kriesell, A degree sum condition for t…

On orientations preserving edge-connectivity in infinite graphs
We prove that every 2k-edge-connected graph with countably many edge-ends admits a k-arc-connected orientation, extending the previous result by Assem, Koloschin and Pitz that also assumed the hypothesis of the graph being locally finite. We prove that, if every locally finite graph has a well-balanced orientation, so does every graph. Lastly, we explore an alternative to the Nash-Williams Orientation Conjecture via topological paths, and prove that it is true for every finitely separated graph.

Weighted directed network of the light-harvesting Photosystem Ι (PSI) of the plant Pisum sativum. The nodes represent chromophores with different identities (i.e. chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, β-carotene and derivates, lutein, violaxanthin), while edges represent FRET transfer between chromophores. The link directionality connecting nodes in the PSI network depends on the energy levels of the connected chromophores. The…

new_zealand_collab: New Zealand scientific collaborations (2015)
A network of scientific collaborations among institutions in New Zealand. Nodes are institutions (universities, organizations, etc.), and two nodes i,j are connected if Scopus lists at least one publication with authors at institutions i and j, in the period 2010-2015. Edges are weighted by the number of such collaborations. Nodes are annotated with the categorical type of institution.
This network has 1511 nodes an…

product_space: Atlas of Economic Complexity export network
Two networks of economic products, where a pair of products are connected if they are exported at similar rates by the same countries. The data are a projection from a bipartite network of nations and the products they export. Edges weights represent a similarity score (called "proximity"). Data based on UN Comtrade worldwide trade patterns. SITC network based on the Standard International Trade Classification and HS …

arxiv_authors: Arxiv authors (1993-2003)
Scientific collaborations between authors of papers submitted to arxiv.org, under 5 categories: gr-qc, astro-ph, cond-mat, hep-ph, and hep-th categories, spanning January 1993 to April 2003. If an author i co-authored a paper with author j, the graph contains a undirected edge from i to j. If the paper is co-authored by k authors this generates a completely connected (sub)graph on k nodes.
This network has 108300 nodes and 186936 edges.
