My comment isn’t on your script, it is on paper-selection…

Please have several, orthogonal, selection-systems:

• most-cited,

• most trustworthy researchers

• most unique area of research, or most unique question, or something

• most central to new tech

• most central to old tech

• most undernoticed, big potential… ( things that should be big news, but the global novelty-addiction ignores it )

• best fundamental science ( definitely include this category! )

• best citizen-science

etc…

iow, the algorithm that most use, which is “paying attention to what others are paying attention to” is an algorithm we shouldn’t be assigning our viability to, you know?

Also, you may need to make a flexible-limit for dumbing-down, as some papers may have a higher limit and others a lower limit, so some could be easy for most to get the sense of, but some might be tricky … and it might well do more good to let them have their different thresholds, see?

• they said that it shows the emission of electromagnetic energy has the same cause, but didn’t explain what that cause is…

• they said that magnetars don’t emit energy all the time, so we had to catch them when they did emit: that is false: we have to catch them when they’re emitting at us, which is a very-different frame-of-reference.

Also, if the things are neutron-stars, then how the hell can they even have any electromagnetic field?

Neutrons are neutral.

It must be a crust of non-neutron protons & electrons, or the plasma swirling in, or something, that’s producing the electromagnetic field…

No need to bother commenting on anything I say:

just random thoughs flitting through a deteriorating old brain…

it is called “establishing ownership”.

Once their identity is consolidated that way,

then they can enforce their certain-in-their-own-unconscious ownership of Asia, through any violence necessary.

You can see equivalent self-dishonesty in the West, & you can see it in Modi’s delusion that Russia is going to help them against China, even through Russia is financially now a vassal-state of China…

Once the economy guts the Democrats in the US, losing them the 2024 election, & Trump guts NATO, backs Russia & Saudi Arabia,

what is going to protect Asia from China’s smashing it like they did Tibet?

7 years from Trump’s coronation ( in 2025 ) is all Asia has left, it seems.

Establishing ownership is fundamental to bullying, btw: rodents do it, sneaking into places at night, so that they feel righteous when fighting for “their” new territory during the day…

I hadn’t understood that bullying had both a yin/molesting/violating phase & a yang/overt-bullying phase until rodents taught me how it’s done…

The governments who push privacy-violating laws & systems, then later stomp civil-rights, they are demonstrating exactly the same Pattern.

The religions who push for “some” control of everybody’s life, relentlessly pushing for “a little more” authority, then once a tipping-point is crossed, suddenly they can switch from yin-bullying to yang-bullying … same thing.

It’s a really common pattern throughout human history, lately…

The models/simulations are falsified by the evidence:

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/sep/08/antarctica-warming-much-faster-than-models-predicted-in-deeply-concerning-sign-for-sea-levels

Notice that that darkens the planet’s albedo, accelerating the progression of ClimatePunctuation/GlobalWarming…

and that the models/simulations contradict the evidence, saying that what happened wouldn’t happen.

The real & correct prediction is that we have already put 5-6C global-warming’s worth of CO2 into the atmosphere, AND we have also added other greenhouse gasses, like methane, & sulfur-hexafluoride.

Here is the robust fact:

https://www.nature.com/articles/nature19798

The powerlaw they discovered that governs the interglacial temperatures is this:

280ppm is a good pre-industrial CO2 measure.

• 280ppm * (9th-root-of-2) == +1C
• 280ppm * (9th-root-of-2)^2 == +2C
• 280ppm * (9th-root-of-2)^3 == +3C
• 280ppm * (9th-root-of-2)^4 == +4C
• 280ppm * (9th-root-of-2)^5 == +5C ( we are at 421, which is above this )
• 280ppm * (9th-root-of-2)^6 == +6C
• 280ppm * (9th-root-of-2)^7 == +7C
• 280ppm * (9th-root-of-2)^8 == +8C
• 280ppm * (9th-root-of-2)^9 == +9C ( aka 280ppm * 2 == +9C )

At that point, the CO2 level has been doubled.

CO2 acts like the Gate in a bipolar transistor: the tiny current you put into the gate, the HUGE current flows through the Source-Drain part of the transistor.

Increase the CO2, & that increases the moisture in the atmosphere, which MASSIVELY increases the amount of retained solar heat.

Pretending that +2C is attainable, now, is delusional.

I’m no longer certain that there will be ANY life around the equator, in 1 century, at or near the surface.

Learned-helplessness produces both Nihilism & Sadism.

The Russian soldiers’ habit of making torture-chambers everywhere proves this.

Russian culture’s “fate regime” concept of relationship also proves this ( it proves the learned-helplessness aspect of it ).

( apparently that article explaining how in Russia, people entirely accept that fate, and nothing else, decides who marries who, is now … gone??

Neither DuckDuckGO nor google have it… )

Deterrent requires that both parties have aversion to destruction.

However, when 1 party has become nihilist, then they can assault the other as a means of baiting the other into sadistic-aggression, in order that all the neighbours commit to annihilating the one who was successfully baited into demonstrating genocidal sadism.

Israel won’t exist, in 10 years, no matter what, now.

NOTHING can make the Arab world accommodate its life, now.

Nothing.

The Christian Bible’s Matthew 24 had a prophecy that is about to become historical-fact, in the coming decade.

Here’s a decent version of it:

https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=matt+24&version=AMPC

That bit around verses 15-20 is the pertinent area.

Simply wait 1 decade, and see: if Israel still exists, as a country, in 2033, I’ll eat a hat.

And it was entirely preventable, had there been enough committment to having neutral authorities in West Bank ( UN ), and NO political-dishonesty OR nationalist bullying permitted from either side…

Needless, politically-enforced & needless…
