There's much more awesomeness in the paper:

We go deep on the pairwise distance distribution.

And along the way, we model the distribution of houses in Denmark using old-school statistical physics and then connect everything through considering the inter/intra city mobility.

The 1/x power-law spans the scales of meters to hundreds of km.

The way we unearth the power law is that in considering the raw mobility data (orange line), we account for the moves that are possible (blue line) encoded as the distribution of pairwise distances between locations.

Super excited about our new paper on mobility that's out in Nature Human Behavior www.nature.com/articles/s41...

I love this paper for many reasons, but one is that we find beautiful 1/x power-law that spans 6 orders of magnitude hidden within the "ugly" distribution raw mobility data.

One of the key reasons to use entropy in scientific work apparently already expressed by von Neumann. From www.quantamagazine.org/what-is-entr...

The video is actually 1:30, but bsky only allows 1 min, so below are the last 30 secs. It's mostly Nietzsche and IMHO the best part.

I teach a network science class where students create a short video to present their final project.

This one blew my mind and restored my faith in humanity!

(I recommend watching with sound on!)
