i could really do with a #network and/or #jails review on D49843 if anyone feels like doing that. i’m pretty sure i am in the right here, but i won't get mentor approval to commit unless someone supports it.

NEEDLES

On her table, he is a collection
Of meridians and channels,
Pulses, emotions, and phases,
A puzzle of flesh, sinews, and bones,
A network of blockages and gates
That need to be opened, energies
To be restored and focused,
An essence to be reset and healed,
Before he can walk away and
Spread goodness again in his world.

“I have friends” she said as she parked her suitcase next to the door, stopping to check her makeup in the hall mirror. “Certainly more than you- you have two friends, and that’s counting me.”
“What you have is a network. A loose collective of…happy hour handshakes and…mutually beneficial agreements. You could get 10 people to come to a dinner party next week, but I’ll bet you couldn’t get one person to come drive you to the airport.”
“And that’s why I keep you around” she answered with wide, grinning eyes.

📶 When to Care About LTE on a Smartphone

LTE bands vary by region. In Europe, common bands are 3, 7 & 20. In the U.S., you'll often need bands 2, 4, 5, 12 & 66. If your phone doesn’t support local bands, you might face weak or no signal abroad.

Always check LTE compatibility before buying—especially if you travel frequently!

Furthermore, she showed that certain stabilising effects of #network #structure can only be reproduced in theoretical #matrices when the underlying distribution of interaction strengths is highly skewed - which is in apparent contradiction to what is suggested by random matrix theory....

bioRxiv · Many weak and few strong links: The importance of interaction strength distributions for stabilising patterns in competition networksEcological networks tend to contain many weak and only few strong interactions. Furthermore, interaction strengths are often arranged or patterned in ways that enhance stability. However, little attention has been given to the relation between the “many weak and few strong links” distribution and the stabilising effect of patterning. Here, we focus on the stabilising effect of hierarchy in bryozoan competition networks, and demonstrate that it critically depends on a skewed distribution of interaction strengths. To this end, we first show that, in line with many other ecological networks, the empirically derived interaction strengths in competition networks were characterised by a high level of skewness, with many weak and few strong links. Then, we analysed the relationship between the interaction strength distributions, hierarchy and stability by comparing theoretical competition matrices with different distributions of interaction strengths. We found that the full stabilising effect of hierarchy only appeared when we used skewed interaction strengths produced by a gamma distribution, but not in matrices built with uniform or half-normal distributions. This has important methodological implications, since theoretical studies often assume normal or uniform distributions to study ecological stability, and therefore might overlook stabilising mechanisms. We conclude that since skewed interaction strengths are a common feature of ecological networks, they can be expected to play an important role in the relation between structure and stability in living systems. ### Competing Interest Statement The authors have declared no competing interest.
