Yes it can be nicer out there than sitting with a computer all day. Depends on the type of field work and when/where your research subject happens. Def not talking about regular continuous farm work.

I haven't seen much chemical coping mechanism out of the ordinary, as you suggest.

Speculating here, and from personal experience: perhaps the long hours sitting with the computer is not good for the mind and body. Especially knowing it's much nicer out there in the field.

Hey @sarahtaber.bsky.social any idea of why the very high rates among Ag Scientists? I'm one of them :)

i should be able to consume irresponsible amounts of caffeine and suffer no adverse effects

Electrified ships transporting oil would be quite a thing to see.

That´s what I'm talking about! 🫘🎃🌽

Where are the beans and squash?

Ahh ok ok. Thanks! Your podcast with Sean Carroll was excellent, btw.

Hi @erictopol.bsky.social, am I reading it right that right in which there's no difference between morning and night, but also that neither had a beneficial effect?

Music to My Lips: Effects of Musical Tempo on the Coffee Drinking Experience A study was designed to investigate the influence of music tempo on lone coffee drinkers' experience in a coffee shop. The study (N = 400) was a single-blind randomized experiment conducted at a spec....

"slow tempo music on weekdays led to intentions to re-purchase coffee. Furthermore, customers lingered for longer in the coffee shop on weekends when slow tempo music was playing."

Conceptual figure depicting the analyzed mechanisms for change in community trait composition across the study area. Tree individuals that are alive and have a DBH ≥10 cm are part of the full community assemblage. Across time, there can be changes in the community trait composition due to growth of the surviving tree individuals (survivor assemblage) given their increase in basal area (top right). Other mechanisms for changing community trait composition across time are the recruitment (recruit assemblage) of new individuals (middle right) and the death (fatality assemblage) of individuals in the community (bottom right).

Imagine this: the Amazon and other tropical forests are like nature’s lungs 🌎
But those lungs? They’re wheezing
A new study shows these forests aren’t adapting fast enough to climate change. They're struggling to keep up
It’s not just trees at risk - it’s all of us

Conceptual diagram of associational resistance (AR) mechanism. This diagram illustrates the hypothesized mechanism by which extrafloral nectar (EFN) from common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) mediates AR against fall armyworm (FAW) caterpillars (Spodoptera frugiperda), facilitated by the shared ectoparasitoid wasp Euplectrus plathypenae. Green arrows represent the movement of E. plathypenae

Much better

Because that´s it makes the difference between sides smaller, elections more contested, makes flashier stories, more subscriptions and ad revenues. And it´s not like Ezra works for the MSM right?

Or vice versa: sad, angry and fearful people don't move much. Close to home to conserve whatever they have.

Right amount of chill hours
