“Reform has the most extreme policy on energy and climate the UK has seen since modern science on the subject began. The party opposes solar; it opposes wind; it opposes batteries… Once again: Reform is largely funded by fossil fuels” Private Eye on the anti-thought, pro-corruption threat of Reform

MELTING TICE RICHARD TICE, Reform UK's deputy leader and spokesman on energy and climate, made an extraordinary appearance on Bloomberg's Zero podcast last week. A few things soon became clear: firstly, he hasn't read the science. Tice claims the UK. is "almost unilaterally" beggaring itself by choosing low-carbon power (tell that to China, building hundreds of gigawatts of solar and wind each year). He hasn't read the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change's (IPCC) summary for policymakers. He says "thousands" of scientists disagree with accepted climate science but wouldn't - couldn't? - name any scientists who'd advised him. He thinks net zero will bankrupt Britain (jobs in clean energy are growing faster than much of the rest of the economy). He threatened to walk out twice - once when presented with the IPCC's summary. When asked about batteries, which store solar and wind power safely and cheaply until the evening peak, he said: "We don't need batteries. It's ridiculous." Reform UK has the most extreme policy on energy and climate the UK has seen since modern science on the subject began. The party opposes solar; it opposes wind; it opposes batteries, for God's sake. Its policy is "drill, drill, frack Lincolnshire". Once again: Reform is largely funded by fossil fuels. The main defence Tice wielded was that the IPC recently abandoned its always implausible "RCP8.5" scenario - the worst-case, which predicted coal use doubling or tripling this century. İronically, Tice himself is the British politician who would do more than anything else to bring about that polluted world. 'Young Windy'

@jama.com hi I can’t seem to access supplementary material of this paper. It just didn’t load. Other colleagues with right access tried unsuccessfully too. Can you have a look? Thanks jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...

So a recent Veritasium video on natural selection explains kin selection and does the unavoidable thing of saying that a parent shares "half of its genes with the child". This is wrong, because for any 2 humans, we share almost all of our genes. We share more than 95% with chimpanzees ffs. >>

This honestly should be required reading for anyone undertaking (or evaluating) exploratory studies... ⬇️👍 (It's proper funny too 😅)

Which reminds me of this old classic on the Noise Miners. “'Noise mining is a funny thing,' he said. 'When you first see a bit of noise, it doesn’t look so impressive. But as you work it out of the rock, it gets more and more refined.' This process, he explained, is called 'shucking.'"

As regulators turn an eye toward noise mining, I wanted to meet some of those who will be affected

Remembering the most likely mediator of reduced mortality in the original EGDT therapy was the presence of the CI in the intervention arm, the regular attendance of an interested and informed clinician (and skilled ICU nurse) likely has a bigger impact than any single drug or intervention.

"One intangible advantage of capillary refill time is that performing it brings the clinician back to the bedside to reassess the patient. This act may be itself the holy grail of early sepsis management." great piece on #sepsis
