Congratulations to the data wizards at @ourworldindata.org who created this elegant tool so you can adjust fertility, mortality & migration rates for any country to see the impact on population sizes & age structures.
This is really, really great!! Check it out!! Excellent tool, terrific write up.
There’s a LOT going on as researchers and public health experts race to respond to the Ebola Bundibugyo outbreak in DRC and Uganda before it grows bigger.
Some really important questions still open, but also a few answers coming into view🧪
My overview in @science.org is here (and thread coming):
In a decades-long study, researchers have documented what appears to be the first observed “civil war” in wild chimpanzees.
The findings demonstrate that shifting social ties alone can fracture a once unified group and ignite sustained, deadly conflict among former allies. https://scim.ag/47QE8Qw
As discussions on Ebola and border controls intensify, it is important to go back to what available scientific evidence actually shows.
In @lefigaro.fr, I discuss what we learned from past Ebola epidemics and travel restrictions.

OpenAI's claim that this is a central conjecture in discrete geometry is not an exaggeration. This will I think be looked back on as the first time that AI solved a major mathematics problem (defined as a problem that all experts in some subfield had thought about).
