  • Some highlights if you don’t want to click:

    Temperatures are forecast to be warmer than normal for all of the northern U.S., from northern California, Oregon and Washington to Pennsylvania, New York and into New England.

    NOAA says that temperatures will stay closer to the 30-year average for the South.

    For the precipitation (rain, snow, sleet, etc.), the northern states could see below-normal snowfall, especially in the northern Rockies and the Great Lakes.

    Across most of the South, wetter than normal conditions are expected, especially in the Southeast from Louisiana to Florida and into the Carolinas.

    For the Northeast, there is a chance that this will be a wetter than normal winter from Washington, D.C., to Philadelphia, to New York City and into southern New England.

    super important detail

    One other thing to note, this is all a probability forecast. The atmosphere is very fluid and dynamic, and forecasts could change.
















  • Here’s the psyarxiv link - It’s short and worth reading.

    It sounds like some of the general issue here is around the language of being “dominant” and “well-established” and that it might be receiving undue attention without more thorough research supporting it. There’s also some concern about the testability of some of the claims the theory proposes.

    Part of the letter’s issue seems to be about sharing results prior to peer-review.

    The actual letter doesn’t seem to claim it should be labeled pseudoscience, but just mentions that some others have labeled it that:

    “IIT is an ambitious theory, but some scientists have labeled it as pseudoscience”

    (edit: language clarifications)



  • My point isn’t to not argue for the existence of human beings, just be selective about who you argue with and how that draws attention to them. You can do that without replying to them to bring them back. Just reference their name without @ing them. You can share this info without that.

    “don’t feed the trolls” not enlightened centerist nonsense, and there aren’t good-faith moderators on lemmy.world. This has been around for 30+ years at this point, and people do it because it works, and it’s been researched. Removing or diminishing their voice is the only thing that helps, regardless of how its done, and there’s research on this plus tons of experience of people modding communities.



















  • Sure, but you shared the clarification the journalist used, so they’ve actually spelled out that it’s not just school massacres in the article. It also doesn’t necessarily imply the core title isn’t true.

    The more you read, the more you start to realize there are never clear definitions for anything. You always have to look for the author to clearly define what they’re talking about.
