Exactly. What are those Republican congressmen and senators talking about behind closed doors? What are they telling their children? How do they see their future? How can they not wake up in the morning and find themselves transformed into a giant beetle?

🚨 Excited for the latest paper from the lab, led by Zhang & Arsham. Can we coarse-grain a #ComplexNetwork while preserving macroscopic network flows? Surprisingly, the answer is positive, and we have shown it by means of StatPhys + Machine Learning. 🧵 1/ www.nature.com/articles/s41...

New Paper Alert. Justus van Ramshorst et al. compared lower-cost eddy covariance (LC-EC) with conventional EC (CON-EC). "Our results showed that LC-EC has the potential to measure CO2 and H2O fluxes at approximately 25% of the cost of a CON-EC system". Find out more at: doi.org/10.5194/amt-...

Countries should be investing more money in science, not less. It’s pretty clear that many young minds will not be interested in becoming scientists if the salaries are not good and the future of this occupation is not certain.

What is complexity? What kind of approach is needed to define it? Here's a 1977 paper by Robert Rosen, one of the pioneers of System Science, discussing how information, error and scale are central to this problem: tandfonline.com/doi/pdf/10.1... @manlius.bsky.social @svalver.bsky.social

To me that means that matter is not enough, that we need processes to include in a minimal definition. The pics shared by @ricard_sole provide a nice example for the difference between a Thermodynamic system far from equilibrium (left) and at equilibrium (right). #ComplexSystems 🧪🦠

The very first pages of my upcoming book start with why and how the mathematical version of the Occam's razor, ie the minimum description length, should be used to guide the modeling and analysis of #ComplexSystems... 🤔 Complex Systems have (and need) generative mechanisms.
