I forgot that this podcast existed. I have a bit of catching up to do.
Well maybe I should've been more specific. The reason why I mentioned low tech is because it tends to favor localized production and tech that can be easily repaired/modified/created. The pager and walkie talkie attacks came from them not having control over how the tech was produced. If they did have control over that then it would be less likely that this happened and even if it did they would be able to recover quicker.
PS I actually don't really care about Hezbollah doing this. They suck. It is just in principle it would be better.
I had a feeling that this war would start something like this. Israel has been a testing ground for advanced military technology/ideas for a while. Now that they are engaging in war it was inevitable that techniques or ideas that they have been hiding would eventually get used leading to the world being more dangerous than it was before.
Also as a side note this is why low tech is such a good idea. A small amount of dependencies usually means something is safer in the long run.
Long distances actually don't really mean much it can't be guaranteed that they actually correlate to much. It is mostly the local groups that are conserved and a bit of the global structure.
Yeah pretty much. There is also a weighting based on the percentage of comments in that community that come from that user.
I don't think it was included because there were no new comments made after august 1.
I had to try scraping the websites multiple times because of stupid bugs I put in the code beforehand, so I might of put more strain on the instances than I meant too. If I did this again it would hopefully be much less tolling on the servers.
As for the cost of scraping it actually isn't that hard I just had it running in the background most of the time.
Yeah I've noticed there aren't many clusters that encode specific ideas (there are a few like the anime, nsfw, or sometimes instance level clusters). Most of it just seems to be a blend. Sorta disappointing.
Probably a webgl problem. I had to use ungoogled chromium to open the page. I think it works on regular firefox too.
Yeah that sounds like a good idea so you can see how connected local communities are. Probably makes more sense to use original dimensions so no extra information is lost.
This is pretty cool thx. I like how they include both the researcher and their seminal works. It also helped me find another researcher that was into low tech other than Philippe Bihouix. I wonder why most researchers that are into that are French?
