38 degree core body temp in microgravity stabilised after 2 months - due to reduced conv. heat transfer+evaporation https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-017-15560-w

so that's hypopyrexia (augmented concentrations of interleukin-1 receptor antagonist) AND hypothermia (convection/evaportation)? what puzzles me is that temperatures take so long to return to baseline after astronauts return to earth.

The academic journals scam (in general) is quantified.

I agree soooo very much. An increasing number of journal and scientists are finally coming on board with this open science philosophy and I bet we will soon see a radical change of the whole peer review process and publication business

This is a social sciences paper trying to make use of ML. Quote from text: "Social scientists studying the life course must find a way to reconcile a widespread belief that understanding has been generated by these data-as demonstrated by more than 750 published journal articles using the Fragile Families data (10)-with the fact that the very same data could not yield accurate predictions of these important outcomes." "(...) In other words, the submissions were much better at predicting each other than at predicting the truth."

an important message to learn from
