Abstract: In an embodiment, the disclosure provides computer-implemented systems and methods for providing graph-based recommendations of digital media collaborators for content creators. In an embodiment, the disclosure provides computers programmed to implement a networked, online platform for facilitating collaboration between content creators. In an example embodiment, the platform provides a system for recommending a collaborator for a particular content creator to create content with, of a specific content type. In another example embodiment, the platform provides a system for recommending a collaborator for a particular content creator to create content with, without restricting the content type, using a community detection algorithm. In embodiments, recommendations may be made partly based on centrality measures of creator nodes on a network graph programmatically calculated between content nodes of that network graph, or content nodes of a community detected in the network graph.

Abstract: The present invention relates to electrothermic composite material comprising an electrothermic layer on a substrate, wherein the electrothermic layer comprises glass having a carbon component dispersed throughout, wherein the glass, the carbon component, and their relative concentrations are selected such that the electrothermic layer resists delamination from the substrate over repeated electrical heating and cooling cycles. Methods and uses of the composite materials are also described.

Abstract: According to the invention there is provided an electrothermic composition comprising: a carbon component; a graphite component having a crystallinity of 99.9% and wherein the graphite is heat treated at a temperature of 2500° C. to 3000° C., and a binder, whereby the composition has a thermal coefficient of electrical resistance (TCR) of ±0.0001 to 0.0010 per ° C. over a temperature range of from about 20° C. to 60° C. in an airborne environment, wherein the ratio of the first conductive component and the second resistor component is selected between 10:1 to 1:10.

Abstract: Apparatus and method for supporting a post. In accordance with some embodiments, a subterranean support structure has a tube extension adapted for placement within a hole to receivingly nest a proximal end of a vertically extending post that extends above the hole. The tube extension has opposing first and second ends, the first end adapted for placement proximate a top elevation of the hole and the second end adapted for placement proximate a bottom elevation of the hole. A support flange circumferentially extends from the tube extension a selected distance from the second end of the tube extension. The support flange supports a column of anchoring material placed in the hole between the tube extension and a sidewall of the hole.
