Proportion of network informed by each timestep in simulated information spread on a network with τ={τ ¹,τ ²}, and \(q^{\tau ^{1}} = q^{\tau ^{2}} = \frac {1}{2}\). Simulation parameters set to x=2, p _strong=1, and p _weak=.25. When homophily is positive, increasing density changes neighborhood compositions and strictly impedes information diffusion; at this lower value of p _weak, the impediment is even greater
