I created a starter pack for social network analysis, since this one was still missing.
LMK if you want to be added! (I'll like the comment after adding you.)
Also, check out the other starter packs for network science and complexity (so this is more social science).

Schön, aber schade: keine Netzwerktheorie / relationale Soziologie. Aber gut, man kann nicht alles machen ...

AI Data Centers Are Sending Power Bills Soaring
Wholesale electricity costs as much as 267% more than it did five years ago in areas near data centers. That’s being passed on to customers.

Excited to share that my dissertation has now been published with @velbrueckw.bsky.social: www.velbrueck.de/Programm/The...

It looks at how society became a concern for the climate sciences and how climatological theories of society have evolved since the mid-19th century.

(b) Because the question establishes the relevance of the endeavor. In a way the answer doesn't. So maybe that's the answer. Or my answer.

Yep.
However.
Your question got me thinking: I recently published an article with the question how can theories represent social phenomena? as its title. Why did I do this? (a) Because the answer is way more complicated and wordy than the question. Which I already had a hard time getting right.

Because the answer is usually: it depends?

Just out in Social Networks w. @snannabell.bsky.social:
The Duality of Network Ties and Attributes.
As part of the special issue on duality, we argue that the principle applies to multi-modal network data. It allows relating different types of tie and other dyadic attributes.

Das einzige was mir ja wirklich nach wie vor vor fehlt nach Twitter™️, ist das Begleiten von Tagungen — von Vortragsnotizen bis trash talk.

Erste kurze Recherche in der Bluesky-Suchleiste ergab eher wenig Hoffnung?! #dgs2025 #dgs25 #soziologie #duisburg

. @katemanne.bsky.social, by my lights the most important feminist philosopher in the world, makes a VERY compelling case that Donald Trump raped a 13-year-old girl. This includes terrifying details, but it must be read. open.substack.com/pub/katemann...
