New study tests a core idea in crime pattern theory: do burglars strike along the paths they travel between familiar places—or only near their activity nodes?
Analysing 450 burglaries in The Hague, @toby-davies.bsky.social and I show they do both.

Don't know yet, but I happen to have booked an Airbnb in Exarchia, real cool vibe neighborhood. We walked up the hill in our local park. Great view!

We're now on this high-speed train, which the Dutch and Belgians might recognize as the Fyra train. It only operated a few months and was sent back to Italy due to teething problems. Here it runs smoothly so far.

We spent the night in Milan. Booked a hotel close to the train station, because we leave early today. Only one train, Milan to Bari.

Ik hoorde het ook. Je kunt het vervelend vinden, een miskenning zelfs, maar dit is niet de eerste keer dat zoiets gebeurt.
Misschien toch ook nuttig als we allemaal eens in de spiegel kijken.

According to Heliyon, an open access journal from Cell Press @cp-heliyon.bsky.social, I am an expert on ovarian cancer. My wife can attest I know very little about ovaries, and I am trying to avoid cancer too.
