📢 New preprint: Urban highways are barriers to social ties: arxiv.org/abs/2404.11596

We overlay the highway network with a massive, geolocated online social network (Twitter 2012), and measure how social ties are impacted by highway segments. We find a strong barrier effect in all 50 considered US cities. See below - the red squares show that this effect is stronger for short distances.

A due #introduction to myself. I'm an old-style #geek with more than 30 years of experience with multiple flavors of *nix, networking, #FOSS, and development. I'm a researcher and data scientist in the #geospatial and #remotesensing domains, with a background in #computervision and #HPC. I'm also a #Debian Developer, a full-stack dev, and a system administrator, because of my geekness. I'm a type of CS professional that is currently almost extinct, I would say...

Been here for several months now, so I guess it’s time update my #introduction post! The following is probably inaccurate!

I’m Alex, better know as Axman6 pretty much everywhere you can think of - IRC (libera.chat#haskell etc.), 🦤 site, probably LinkedIn and others too.

As far as jobs and hobbies are concerned, I’ve been a professional #Haskell developer for nearly a decade, with various roles in finance and #HFT (despite not really having much of an interest in finance…), in the public sector where I worked on much of the #RenewableEnergy parts of nationalmap.gov.au at #NICTA & #CSIRO, writing backend services in Haskell, doing lots of #geospatial data processing, #SQL, #DevOps and much more.

Previously writing #Daml, a dialect of Haskell, for a large financial system. Currently working for a Canberra based startup making scientific test and measurement equipment using #FPGAs, #python & #C.

if you’re in need of an experienced remote Haskell dev who loves to make things go fast, I’d love to have a chat.

Previously undertaking Masters in #cybersecurity at #UNSW but gave it up because of the lack of advanced content.

I’ve got a strong interest in #cryptography, #integrity, as well as #hacking things to see how they work, and love a good #CTF.

On the more personal side of things, I’m based in #Canberra, #australia. As you can see from my profile pic, I’m also a volunteer in the State Emergency Service - I guess you could say I like pin coladas, and talking walks in the rain… in a storm… on your roof… with a chainsaw⛈️

Updating my #introduction again. I'm loving the #queer and particularly the #trans community here, so I'm changing this account to Davie Dean to better show that side of me. I'm proudly #trans, #nonbinary and #bigender. On here my pronouns are she/her, but I also enjoy being David and he/him most of the time elsewhere. :transgender_flag: :enby: :flag_bigender:

In non #gender stuff, I'm a #geospatial data enthusiast with a passion for #OpenStreetMap and #indigenous mapping. Love #renovating my caravan and house on the side. I'm getting deeper into #geospatial #datascience and #datavisualization. Proudly based on #Ainawan land in #Armidale, NSW.

Updated - needs a photo!

I think I need some #geospatial help.

I have a #GeoJSON file which is ~10MB. Even when compressed it is about 2MB.

It provides a cluster of ~28k points displayed on a #Leaflet map.

Is there a sensible way to make this more efficient? Can I start will a small GeoJSON of just the clusters and then "stream" in more detailed files when users zoom in?

Just published a Behind-The-Scenes blog post about my AIS Shipping Animation from #30DayMapChallenge

Read about the project from concept to final animation - setting up a PI4 to obtain AIS data, importing to Blender, geometry nodes, it's all there....

Only now that I have finally written this up, am starting to understand why this 30 second animation was almost a year in the making
