I'm a climate scientist by trade. Interested in interesting things. Ecology, complexity, politics, social change, music.

  • Um.. Where does the guy in the middle host his shit these days? Asking for a friend.

  • Scientists detect a sharp acceleration in global warming

    Jump

  • Yep, agree! That first paragraph is where I'm at now, trying to work with social scientists, business people, economists, who ever is keen. That interdisciplinary/transdisciplinary work is suuuuper interesting and fun and fucking hard.

    Also I'm just opinionated in general, you know? 😅

  • Scientists detect a sharp acceleration in global warming

    Jump

  • I don't think that last bit is right, see my other comment to FireRetardant's reply. I think the increase in warming rate is basically instantaneous (maybe a few months for atmospheric mixing), it's the peak of temperature/heat that is delayed (agreeing with your 3rd paragraph)

  • Linux didn't just eat 10% of Windows market share, AI bots are inflating the numbers

  • Wow, doubly depressing

  • How do you use the "uno reverse card"?

    Jump

  • That's a cool rule! Kinda destroys that strategy though (TBH I can't even remember if uno has viable strategy)

  • Scientists detect a sharp acceleration in global warming

    Jump

  • Yep, plausible, but again, that's a social problem. It's super interesting, but not something a climate scientist can really speak to.

  • Fuck AI @lemmy.world

  • Scientists detect a sharp acceleration in global warming

    Jump

  • Yeah.. realising I was not making a distinction between greenhouse effect (e.g. increased rate of warming), and the result (e.g. actual increased heat content/temperature. I think the rate of warming increase is basically instant, but yes, it takes some time for the temperature levels to catch up.

    I don't know if I was explicitly taught it at uni, buy I have always understood as a climate scientist that GHG emissions started before the industrial revolution (albeit small). I think that's common knowledge in climate science.

  • Is Bluesky still worth it in 2026 or is it just as unhinged as Elon Musk's hate monger MAGA terrorist cesspool?

    Jump

  • Sure. Right now, everyone has to make a trade-off between accepting a smaller network and engaging with corporate garbage designed to create rage and clicks. Personally I'm happy to sit on the smaller network and contribute a bit and wait for it to build naturally. That's why I'm here on Lemmy too.

  • How do you use the "uno reverse card"?

    Jump

  • Yes, we used to play that way. Basically any attack card could be stacked on top of a previous one (of a matching colour or type), and the first person who couldn't add to the stack got all the effects combined (so you might pick up 6 cards from a stack of +2s)

  • I edited in a reference - it's a thing aparently

  • Scientists detect a sharp acceleration in global warming

    Jump

  • My intuitive answer is that the collapse of globalised industrial society seems fairly likely (as a result of the end of cheap liquid fuel if nothing else). What that looks like is highly dependent on how we respond - it's not a climate problem, it's a social problem.

    I don't think humans are going to go extinct, but a population crash seems likely. And we're taking out a tonne of other species.

  • Especially if "you and me" includes corporations

  • Scientists detect a sharp acceleration in global warming

    Jump

  • Since it started in the mid 2010s, it's probably not AI related. That will be an extra addition..

  • Scientists detect a sharp acceleration in global warming

    Jump

  • Really? I've never heard of this, and I'm a climate scientist.. Not saying it's definitely wrong, but a citation would be good.

    Edit: Huh, seems it's true: https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1748-9326/10/3/031001 although that is for large pulses of CO2, I don't know how that translates into a constant stream of emissions..

  • Am a 32 year old woman, since a year or two ago, each time I wake up I feel like I've been under general anesthesia. I feel very sick, cold and clammy. Is this a normal part of ageing?

    Jump

  • There's no way you can make a reasonable diagnosis from a 100 word Lemmy post, and doing so might be putting someone in danger.

  • Lemmy community sidebars need more "related communities" links

    Jump

  • Get help, kid

  • Is Bluesky still worth it in 2026 or is it just as unhinged as Elon Musk's hate monger MAGA terrorist cesspool?

    Jump

  • I only use it sporadically, but when I do, I often write replies and get replies. I think you need to mutually follow a lot of people before it starts working (like, a thousand or more). I'm not convinced the reply rate is significantly lower than BS or twitter..

    Re: your last comment: for sure. To me that's another bonus of fediverse, e.g. since mastodon is at least partially able to interact with Lemmy and other fediverse apps, and that will presumably improve over time, eventually you will be able to do at lot of cross-app interaction from one place.

  • Is Bluesky still worth it in 2026 or is it just as unhinged as Elon Musk's hate monger MAGA terrorist cesspool?

    Jump

  • If you want microblogging social media just use mastodon (or one of it's forks). Even if Bluesky is decent now, it's owned by venture capital, so it's only a matter of time before it enshittifies.
