Sunday ice update - #Arctic sea ice extent is currently the lowest on record (JAXA data) • about 740,000 km² below the 2010s mean • about 1,340,000 km² below the 2000s mean • about 1,720,000 km² below the 1990s mean • about 2,260,000 km² below the 1980s mean Plots: zacklabe.com/arctic-sea-i... 🌊

Line graph time series of 2025's daily Arctic sea ice extent compared to decadal averages from the 1980s to the 2010s. The decadal averages are shown with different colored lines with purple for the 1980s, blue for the 1990s, green for the 2000s, and white for the 2010s. Thin white lines are also shown for each year from 2000 to 2024. 2025 is shown with a thick gold line. There is a long-term decreasing trend in ice extent for every day of the year shown on this graph between January and April by looking at the decadal average line positions.

📊#dataviz Here's a nice collection of interactive charts on the connection between educational attainment & political preferences in the US 2024 election. I particularly like this annotated bubble plot, showing near perfect separation of Rep & Dem votes by % w/ a BA degree. 🔗https://bit.ly/4kiWDBN

Bubble plot of % voting Democrat vs. % with a BA or higher degree, of US counties, with the size of the bubble symbol proportional to population. Individual counties which lie on the periphery are labeled. Hovering the mouse over a point gives the data for that county.

This is a crazy paper. Fine-tuning a big GPT-4o on a small amount of insecure code or even "bad numbers" (like 666) makes them misaligned in almost everything else. They are more likely to start offering misinformation, spouting anti-human values, and talk about admiring dictators. Why is unclear.
