Just heard about the ceasefire agreement from folks in Gaza (was heads-down coding).
I want to be optimistic although I fear what Israel and Netanyahu’s government will do to sabotage it.

Xia & Lindell have also published a response (https://doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2518837122) – unsurprisingly, we don’t agree with most of their arguments. What puzzles us most is their claim that the re-analysis (their Table 1) "strengthens [their] conclusions." On the contrary:
In the Polysynthesis analysis, Small_Family has a minuscule averaged effect estimate (0.02) with a standard error more than four times larger (0.085). Together with a posterior inclusion probability (PIP) of just 0.085, this means the variable is rarely included in the best-supported models and its estimated effect is highly uncertain – essentially indistinguishable from zero. We therefore still struggle to see how this could be taken as support for their earlier statement that "different measures of language isolation – social, physical and *phylogenetic* – are important predictors of polysynthesis."

An Kaliforniens Küste sterben #Meeressäuger in alarmierendem Ausmaß.

Marine mammals are dying in record numbers along the California coast
