Neue Studie: Atlantikströmung "auf Kippkurs".
Sie verleiht den jüngsten Berichten noch mehr Gewicht, die starke Warnungen formuliert haben, wie der OECD Climate Tipping Points Report 2022 und der Global Tipping Points Report 2023.

New blog on the problem of the continued proliferation of eugenic ideology in academia, including "national IQ" data. (Part of) the solution is to prioritise research integrity, rather than the acquiring of grants, papers & profit (which current academic structures incentivise)

I could not be less surprised by this. I am a data point. I've watched so many (and I mean TOO MANY) of my women colleagues experience the same. Women networks in academia are so fragile because there's never a sense of security or permanence. www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Women who perceive incident as unambiguously discrimination more likely to say they'd report it. Those who see incident as ambiguous more likely to say they'd lean in, change own behav.
