Thank you! I held that pose for most of the presentation, waiting for somebody to take a picture

Come to my presentation tomorrow - it'll district from your muscle pain by creating a thorough sense of confusion

Yes, glad we agree! But this answer was meant for the (hopefully decreasing) number of network interested people under the faulty impression that power law = preferential attachment

Interesting finding, but there are lots of processes other than preferential attachment that lead to a power law degree distribution, so making inference about mechanisms from an overall degree distribution comes with a grain of salt

Yes, agree. I think I was thinking more about Tom Emery's post and mushed it together with what you said! bsky.app/profile/drto...
When computational requirements can’t be fulfilled by a standard PC.

I don't want to generalise, but I'm not sure how well SNA fits; I think network analysts are united by a conceptual approach (relations matter) the require developing new tools, because obs are not independent etc. So using particular hardware is a byproduct not a defining feature of SNA I would say
