I can tell you neither have any interest nor any knowledge of this field. Someone with experience in bibliometrics, like me, would not embarrass themselves by suggesting a "throw some graph theory at it" approach.
I have to laugh and shake my head at all these comments from millenials who say the NSA's activities were well known and then link to wikipedia as if its proof. People who lived through the 80s and 90s remember a time when talk of such conspiracies was put in the same category as Bigfoot and alien abductions. It was inconceivable to most people that the government was capable of listening in on a phone call without a warrant and a FBI agent diguised as a phone company worker climbing a pole outside your house. If you brought the subject up in conversation you were called a "tinfoil hat" conspiracy theorist and treatrd like someone who thought the government was trying to read your brain waves.
I wonder, if these children watched Enemy of the State, would they understand that the movie was science fiction and that movie critics in the 90s ridiculed the plot as implausible and laughably unrealistic?
Reading this thread as a person over 30 is infuriating. It's like being Charlton Heston at the Statue of Liberty but when you start shouting about the state of the world some hipster rolls by on their two-wheel scooter and snidely tells you to read the Wikipedia articles on Charles Darwin and Koko the Gorilla like you've never heard of them before.
Well, if you're going to read that magazine you should expect to see contradictory information as it hasn't been a reputable publication for quite some time.

Except the manipulation is mostly in the other direction. For example, data sets from NASA suddenly changed on year showing increased in temperatures where previously there had been none. The current administration would argue that they're unpoliticizing science. If you're going to manipulate the data to help your side you can't complain when the other side does it. Unfortunately, the chance to have an honest discussion about the climate was destroyed by those climate zealots "hiding the decline".
I've always found it interesting that the civil war occured when the population was about 30 million, the war for independence at about 3 million, and colonial rebellions at about 300,000. The country is at about 350 million now.
Everyone is commenting that studying for the CTCI bar exam is more important than personal projects. Is something like HackerRank more or less important than personal projects?
Are you kidding me? Only North American anthropologists cling to this theory. Central and South Americans know that there are artifacts in the south that far predate anything in the north. But the north just ignores them because it doesn't fit their theory. The first people in the Americas did not arrive over the Bering Strait.
I guarantee you they are selling the data to private investigators to track down targets. Happens with mall security too. The NSA doesn't need to track everyone. They just need access to the private detabases.
It's simple. The scientic consensus was that the earth was the center of the universe. Galileo thought the sun was the center of the universe. The Church allowed supported Galileo and repeatedly gave him permission to pursue his theory but forbid him from speaking about it without proof. Unable to obtain proof because his theory was wrong, Gallileo wrote a book making fun of the Pope and got his ass thrown in jail.
People who think the Catholic Church is anti-science think so put of ignorance. They see how American protestants conduct themselves and assume catholics are more extreme versions of them. However, many of their beliefs including those related to evolution and creation first appeared in protestantism in the 19th century. Catholics in the 1st and 2nd centuries, for example, were writing about how the days in Genesis represent unspecified time periods, not literal days.
