(not) sorry to keep hammering the point, but this really is the thing: as AI-generated video becomes more sophisticated, it will only become harder for non-experts to tell what's real and what isn't based on incongruous details, but an old-fashioned "source??" will always give the sloppers away.

Vaccines are the greatest public health success story in history.

So much death and suffering can be stopped entirely, or dramatically reduced.

And people are just throwing it away.

You guys, check out this close-up of nurse shark skin! They have a reputation for being kinda dull brown, but it's really a beautiful sandstone mosaic pattern, and they range pretty widely in color! (That's me on the right in a neon shark print bathing suit during a research workup).

A few years ago, Bill Nye the science guy debated creationist Ken Ham about evolution. The last question was "what would change your mind?"

Bill Nye said "Evidence."

Ken Ham said "Nothing can possibly change my mind about this."

I think about that a lot.

Very cool new paper: Scientists observed a whiplash squid covering itself in mud, the first time this behavior has been documented for squid. They suspect the squid was arranging its tentacles to look like the stalks of a sponge or worm 🦑🌊🧪 esajournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

It's a terrible headline, but the conclusion is that "harp seal predation remains an important factor that should be included in Atlantic cod stock assessments."
Are harp seals responsible for the stalled recovery of Atlantic cod? | “Our analysis revealed that harp seals consume a higher biomass of shared target species than caught by fisheries.”

Sure but harp seals are part of the ecosystem and naturally eat those fish? What are we doing here?
Are harp seals responsible for the stalled recovery of Atlantic cod?
Since Atlantic cod fisheries collapsed in the early 1990s, ecosystems have been less productive and have struggled to recover.
