Nature's 'Scientific Reports' journal does indeed have a different editorial priority than other journals. The peer reviewers are instructed to evaluate scientific validity, not th…

Billion has meant 10^9 in both the US and the UK in most common usage since the 1970s. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_and_short_scales#cite_not... There is no modern British de…

The 'Netatmo' home weather stations record CO2 level. Mine shares over wifi. I get around 400ppm with windows open for a while, or 1200ppm with windows closed. I don't know what th…

Do you really think Google search trends are indicitive of "recent trends" on political leanings on regulation? If so, you might be interested to see that there is appears to actua…

Annoying meta-pedant note: You presumably mean that witch hunts mainly occurred in puritanical areas, at a time in which the Renaissance was occurring elsewhere in the world.

I doubt her anger is completely feigned. Even if it were, the job of a politician in a democracy is to represent the interests of their people. Anger here is better than not talkin…

Looks interesting. I don't see a prominent link to a full pdf version of the draft of the website. Any reason why not?

Ha - I agree that that procedure seems preposterous. I have seen it listed in several forums, and only considered it after several others had reported success. I figured it didn't …
