🚨 New article alert 🚨 our PhD alum @thlim.bsky.social has a new piece in Nature’s scientific data on his Korean campaign data project.

South Korean Election Campaign Booklet and Party Statements Corpora This project contains two comprehensive text datasets from South Korean politics: the South Korean Election Campaign Booklet Corpus and the South Korean Party Statements Corpus. The Election Campaign ...

You can access the datasets here: osf.io/rct9y/

I hope these resources will open up new possibilities for research on political communication, campaign strategies, party competition, and policy change.

In the paper, I introduce two large-scale text datasets:

Election Campaign Booklet Corpus: 49,678 candidate booklets from all national and local elections in South Korea, 2000–2022

Party Statements Corpus: 82,723 official statements from party leadership, 2003–2022

I am thrilled to share that my paper, “South Korean Election Campaign Booklet and Party Statements Corpora,” doi.org/10.1038/s415... has just been published in Scientific Data (@nature.com).

George Wendt, an actor and comedian who was beloved for his performance as Norm Peterson on the long-running comedy series “Cheers” has died, his family announced.

My second favorite is
(20+25)^2 =2,025

The fact that bluesky did the math for me, thus the comma, is my third favorite lol

For Maths fans, 2025 is a square.
45² = 45 x 45 = 2025
Also,
9² x 5² = 2025
40² + 20² + 5² = 2025
My favourite?
1³+2³+3³+4³+5³+6³+7³+8³+9³ = 2025
#Mathematics #teaching #education

The years Y = 1, 9, 36, 100, 225, 441, 784, 1296, 2025, 3025 … all follow the pattern Y = square of (1 + … + n) = 1 cubed + … + n cubed.

So the last pre-2025 year of this form was 1296 = (1 + 2 + … + 8) squared = 36 squared = 1 cubed + … + 8 cubed.

The first post-2025 will be 3025 = 55 squared.

Happy Festivus everyone. Always amazed this crazy episode birthed a real celebration that seems to be enjoyed by so many around the world. So may your feats be strong and your grievances few. Enjoy.
