How do you evaluate the strength of a relationship when the measurement is noisy/unreliable? We account for every network connection to reveal the strength of a pairwise relationship from EEG neuroimaging. πŸ“œdoi.org/10.3389/fnimg.2022.9… 🧠@marioparrarodri @AgustinMIbanez @jescrod

In 1994, Jeff Bezos famously spotted a stat that made him leave his high-paying PE job to start Amazon: πŸ’‘ The Internet was growing 2300% per year. What are the generation-defining stats of today? I'll post a few to kick things off...

Been thinking about a good approach to picking tools & spares based on the type of bike ride I'm doing. I created the "Tools Map" for this as a way to plot items against route length and remoteness, and wrote about it here bit.ly/3pnU7iQ #WeRideWithHuli πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¦
The weather's improving, which means taking longer rides to more remote places. Our latest blog, by @ChrisZeroG introduces a new way of picking the tools & spares needed for every bike trip. Introducing, the "Tools Map" πŸ‘‰bit.ly/3pnU7iQ #WeRideWithHuli ✌️ πŸ’™πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¦πŸ’›

Our man on the trails @StevenOwens29 revealing all about how he gets the most out of every ride by using all of Huli! Check out the latest blog to see how @huli_adventure can help you this Spring πŸ‘€bit.ly/3sTC0SIπŸ‘€ #weridewithhuli
Are routes *really* that important a part of cycling? We certainly think so and @StevenOwens29 walks you through how he uses Huli in our latest Blog. So head to bit.ly/3sTC0SI to see exactly how we can help you plan your next adventure! #weridewithhuli
Life hack for UK folks dreaming of new #cycling routes for when Spring eventually hits 1. Head over to your favourite app store 2. Download "Huli Cycling Routes" 3. Tap on the shiny @huli_adventure logo You're welcome 😚

Feeling techy? Want some insights into our journey to become the worlds most advanced #cycling #route creator? 😜 We don't always claim to get things right, so this week's blog is about how (and why) our early routing algorithm attempts fell short! bit.ly/3oTWLfN

.@UKCycleChat We're looking for (UK-based) participants for a usability test of some Huli design updates. Ideally you won't have used Huli before. There'll be a Wiggle voucher flying your way as thanks if you take part. Sign-up form below πŸ™ Thanks!! bit.ly/3Gte0up
Am I supposed to know answers to the questions @GoZwift asks me @UKCycleChat? β€œWas your heartrate higher than on the last interval?" All I know is I had all of them. All of the beats per minute πŸ₯΅

I wrote a thing about how we process #geospatial data in @huli_adventure, taking it from dots and lines in @openstreetmap to something that can we use to build 1000s of unique #cycling routes every day 🚲 Check out the full blog here πŸ‘‰ bit.ly/3KJL2K0 Summary below...

We go a lot further in terms of processing, but this step takes us from a whopping 41.7 million Nodes and 80 million Edges in our UK & Ireland network, to 8.1 million Intersections and 19.6 million Sections! Still big, sure, but more manageable for our trusty routing engine!
