This is the second part of a blog post series on spatial machine learning with R. You can find the list of other blog posts in this series in part one. Introduction This document shows the application of caret for spatial modelling at the example of predicting air temperature in Spain.
I chart the rise and fall of the Soviet Union, as measured by its share of world energy consumption.
The post The Soviet Experiment with Empire appeared first on Economics from the Top Down.
I was inspired to browse some of Edsger Dijkstra’s essays today, and came across his speech, “Under the spell of Leibniz’s Dream”. It’s the sort of personal history I love to read, which gives one person’s sense of the world over a period of change.
Ausgehend von den empirischen Befunden der kritischen Border Studies, dass auf den „langen Sommer der Migration“ 2015 ein „tiefer migrationspolitischer Winter“ gefolgt ist, womit Rechtsverstöße und Grenzgewalt zur neuen Normalität gehören, zeigt der Beitrag, dass verschärfte Grenzpolitiken die autoritär-rechte Wende in Europa vorantreiben.

The increasingly hostile attitude of the new U.S. government towards science and academia leaves many of us deeply concerned— if not outright alarmed. In an effort to better understand the unfolding situation and navigate its potential impacts, we provide an overview of five types of threats, each supported by links to documented sources.
Act I: Enchantment It usually starts early on. You are looking at something. A couple of bugs on the ground. A star in the sky. The veins on a leaf. The stream of bubbles in your soda. You are just observing. But then you start wondering. What exactly is this? You are curious, you want to know more. How does it work? Is it known? You ask questions.. that lead to more questions.
Ein weiter Weg liegt hinter uns: Seit 20 Jahren ist iRights.info online. Internet, Recht und digitale Praxis haben sich verändert … aber wir sind immer noch da! Darüber sind wir glücklich und dankbar und auch ein bisschen baff. Nun ist Zeit, zurückzublicken, ein herzliches Dankeschön auszusprechen und den Sekt kalt zu stellen.
I joined Cambridge's loftily named Environment Sustainability Strategy Committee this academic year, and have attended a couple of meetings with the latest one being held today. While a lot of what goes on is intricately tied into the University's rather special governance structure and the complexity of the College system, there has been significant progress on making all of this more visible more widely.
