hiv_transmission: HIV transmission network (1988-2001)
A set of networks of HIV transmissions between people through sexual, needle-sharing, or social connections, based on combining 8 datasets collected from 1988 to 2001. Metadata includes test results of several diseases, as well as demographic variables such as age, ethnicity, and gender. Networks come in two flavors: egodyads and altdyads.

The Greenland sea cables are probably being closely monitored, but redundancy seems minimal likely limited to OneWeb satellite connectivity and some VSAT links.
Looking at the routing side, AS8818 announces just two /19s and one /22 (and two /32s in IPv6) with a single upstream provider, Level 3 Inc. This suggests that Layer 3 redundancy is even more constrained.
I would have expected at least one EU-based provider as an additional upstream...

Dave Farber - Grandfather of the Internet - is reported to have died.
I was never his student, but I learned my way of thinking about networks, as distributed systems rather than collections of connected machines, from his early DCS work (via my friend and Farber student, Frank Heinrich.)
I had the good luck to interact with Farber many times. I have several hours of unpublished video in which we discussed the history of the internet (and other matters) - I remember that day: We…
