FTC says it will appeal Meta antitrust decision
The Federal Trade Commission said Tuesday it will appeal the November ruling in favor of Meta in its antitrust case against the social media giant. The FTC said it continues to allege that, for more than a decade, Meta has illegally maintained a monopoly in social networking through anticompetitive conduct. The FTC says Meta bought the significant competitive threats it identified in Instagram and WhatsApp. Meta prevailed over the existential challenge to its business that could have forced the…

Currently reading the collection «Practicing Embodied Thinking in Research and Learning» edited by Donata Schoeller, Sigridur Thorgeirsdottir, and Greg Walkerden and it is really very good!

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…

Shit, hvor er jeg ved at være lidt træt af dem her. De fleste er ikke engang en smule relevante men i kategorien “Vi får snart en pakke til dig” og om man ikke vil have gjort noget andet ved den end at få leveret til dŸren.

If you want to see what is possibly the most dangerous “maritime cross roads” in Canada in terms of weather, geography, traffic, environmental impact, and all the rest:
I have annotated a map near Gill Island.
We don’t know the pipe route. If it’s Kitimat rather than Rupert because a route exists, this is where tankers would go.
