If you've heard the claim that the Sun is responsible for global warming in recent decades, you've likely encountered the Hoyt & Schatten 1993 (HS93) total solar irradiance (TSI) series cited to support this assertion. But, is this correct? [tldr: no] 🧵

This is actually fascinating, if you look at the other posts of the accounts posting "I'm sorry, OpenAI won't let me do that" it's a whole ecosystem of chatbots just talking to each other about random stuff. No humans involved, just endless sludge

Yesterday Reuters published a detailed investigation into how its journalist was killed and AFP colleagues injured by targeted fire from Israeli tanks. It received much less coverage than senate hearings about campus protest. Ditto other civilian casualties www.reuters.com/graphics/ISR...

Provisional ERA5 global temperature for 17th November from @CopernicusECMWF was 1.17°C above 1991-2020 - the warmest on record.

Our best estimate is that this was the first day when global temperature was more than 2°C above 1850-1900 (or pre-industrial) levels, at 2.06°C.

Only 2% of Germans think the US will be the dominating power in the future (no time frame given). 40% think US and China will dominate, 32% believe in a world with multiple poles of power.

Only 17% think the poles will be US, China and Europe.
