Also if students are using it to help them right essays without already knowing what's superficial blah and what's actually critical analysis, then they're never going to understand what's its doing badly even if they check the references. I worry it's bleeding into their own real writing.

Is it a special issue? If several related papers have been published online in a shortish period, my assumption would be they're Online First versions of a special edition coming soon, with its own guest editor.

Our draft programme is now released! Check out our amazing speakers and their fascinating talks.

This is very cool. I once noticed, while flying over northern Quebec, that there seemed to be a long straight line as if someone had taken a gigantic highlighter pen Canada going from north to south. I eventually discovered it was where land had been cleared around the hydro power lines.

Bears Will Be Boys A data analysis of animal gender in children’s books

Great article showing that animal characters are gendered in children's books too- pudding.cool/2025/07/kids...

(see onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/... for my study looking at this in films)

I'm sure the universities are but the government is not being helpful...

I was actually discussing this with my daughter this weekend. I started crossing my 7s when I was 9 because I had a German classmate and I thought it looked better. Pretty sure that was when I started writing my 1s with a little flick at the top too, although that hasn't stuck as long.

Also one of the first 'original' historical sources I ever read was the Burchard diaries, so seeing so many details taken directly from them (and having Burchard as a character) really won me over despite the weird side swerves into total fantasy Neil Jordan kept writing.

I am a sets & costumes junkie. Which is why I'll NEVER watch The Tudors but will defend The Borgias to my last breath. Yes they jumped ahead 20yrs with the dresses but for all that they're SO accurate. Plus François Arnaud and Holly Grainger are just *chefs kiss*.

Ah yes you're right. I basically get all my followed feeds inc Discover feeding i ot my main following feed. Works for me.
I also don't show reposts without a quote to reduce duplicate reposts filling my screen.

It hated anyone that wasn't Cromwell because Cormwell was a Good Guy who was Always Right.
(I think both series were masterpieces of drama but really didn’t make Cromwell ruthless enough. So he gets righteous vengeance against Anne over Wolsey, but she was wrong to hate Wolsey over Percy? Bah.)

There is no algorithm. Are you following/making feeds with keywords? Do you have quiet posters followed, and do you get feeds feeding into your main following view?

Hi Lori yes we're setting up systems for attendees to catch up

Well gosh. Many childhood memories of listening to Tom Lehrer tapes in the car on long journeys. Genuinely taught me a lot about chemistry, geography and 60s politics

If you want to 'rescue' these specific tiffin bars, turn them over and coat the base in chocolate and then chill. It'll help them hold together while being eaten. For future efforts see the other comments 😉

Yes that seemed to be the gist of his apology today.

This is what the search function in Outlook/Sharepoint is for.

(I always try and specify what and where I had already tried searching when I do give up and email the office...)

There is footage...

Bishop of Fulham kicked out a slightly over running choral concert in his dressing gown.

(I take no responsibility for the outcome of any international football finals today...)

OTOH if it's that people who feel 'very...' vs 'a bit fed up today' when England lose show a bigger shift to 'I feel happy today' on any other day, then it's regression to the mean?

I think it's a case where one has to think in terms of real people's real responses. It's not inevitable that the person who thinks about self harm daily then improves to think about it once a month; they *could* have been too ill to benefit.

I find it helpful to anchor with observable physical traits.

d = 2 is the sex difference in height.
d = 4 is the sex difference in upper body muscle mass.
d = 2.54 is the sex difference for homicide (Archer 2019)

If the range of scores were within the range of noise sure. But it's fairly reasonable that of this is an intervention, those with highest baseline risk would show most improvement because there's more to improve. See also: e.g. fitness benefits of a gentle jog.

From the outside it seems like even just extreme voters suppression could do it (and is clearly underway more than ever) without them having to resort to actual roligging. But also that we KNOW Trump will at least ask people to rig/fake numbers because he literally already did that in 2020.
