Join us as postdoc at the Inequality Discourse Observatory at the University of Konstanz: stellen.uni-konstanz.de/jobposting/7...
We will do epic research between Linguistics and Computational Social Science at the Cluster of Politics of Inequality. Feel free to DM if you have any questions.

New paper drop 👀

TL;DR: Promoting physical activity isn’t just a simple fix but a complex system of tangled-up biology, psychology, society, and environment.

Behavior change isn’t linear. Neither is this paper. But we offer practical insights to help untangle the chaos.

Super grateful to have received an R Consortium grant to keep working on improving igraph! Our goal is to work on the interface between the c core and the r package. To date it is still too tedious to integrate new features seamlessly. r-consortium.org/posts/r-cons... #rstats cc @masalmon.eu

Finishing off an intense week of teaching #SNA @komex.bsky.social for a wonderful group of course participants 🤓

Post-Christmas me is going to be very angry at how much work pre-Christmas me dumped on the ’will deal with it after Christmas’ pile

Sorry, obscure journal of “Sound and Vibration”, but I must decline your generic invitation to join the editorial board. My expertise in sound is limited to what my ears casually pick up, and my contribution to vibration is limited to my phone on silent mode 🫨

Come join our team! Amazing city, awesome department, and some of the best colleagues you could ask for. Happy to answer any questions you may have 🙂

What’s up Bluesky?? Are we (finally) abandoning the bad place? 👏👏👏

I very much look forward giving this #komex2025 course 🥳 In one week, we go from the basics to advanced statistical superpowers for analyzing networks. Expect network jokes, #Rstats puns, and the kind of nerdy banter you openly eyeroll but secretly love 🤓🫶

I'll be giving my inaugural talk next week, open for anyone who can and wants to join. Expect a lot of big words, personal anecdotes, some mildly amusing jokes, and maybe even a technical hiccup or two 🤓📚✨Join afterward for finger food and drinks 🥂

📅 Date: June 5th
📍 Venue: Data Theatre (ZT1204)

Excited to announce the book project "R 4 Social Network Analysis". @termehs.bsky.social and I decided to write an open access introductory book for conducting Social Network Analysis in #Rstats.
Blog Post: blog.schochastics.net/posts/2024-0...
book (WIP): schochastics.github.io/R4SNA/

New multigraphr version 0.2.0 is now on CRAN. No user facing changes, just @schochastics.bsky.social doing his refactorization magic which significantly improves performance 🙌

Let some science communication be my first post here:
New paper out on my evergreen topic network centrality with @termehs.bsky.social

We assess how tough it is to reliably explain correlations among indices.
