        Are you a palaeoclimatologist who is struggling to convince someone of something?

          If you were able to see what IP addresses had visited a Wikipedia page, would you be able to take the lists here, assume a reasonable time period going back, and identify uniquely which addresses had visited all 5 (or more) pages listed by each commenter?

                    I just checked out the article about the active volcano in Réunion Island, named Le Piton de la Fournaise. That's because I am staying there this month and hoping to catch some lava (not with my hands, duh. I will use a bucket).
                    https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piton_de_la_Fournaise

                    From there I read about the Deccan Trapps, a large western part of the indian subcontinent that was pretty much formed by serial lava flows about 60MY ago. Then I was led to the article about LIPs (large igneous provinces), and I'm still falling down that rabbit hole as we speak. Fascinating stuff

                      Oh, a genet !! They live in the forests of Mayotte, I've seen exactly one live before, she was crossing a road in town, around dusk. It's weird because she looked so much like a cat (same overall size), but thinner and longer, and her walk was super straight, like felines do when they're approaching prey and trying to stay low, you know. You could have mistaken her for a cat on a picture... but the way she moved was a total callout.

                      I have a cat now, very long and thin also, whom I affectionately call "little genet". Heheh

                            Might it not also depend just on how you define "the production team"? Since editing is often termed "post-production", it would be reasonable to exclude the editors from the "production team". To me that term seems more to imply the lighting, cameras, audio, PAs, and other people actually on set, rather than the task writers or editors.

                            Sure. But we were just going to use production team to get a general idea of how many people were task writing! More people in general probably means more task writers! It was all very slap dash guessing on our part!

                                  In case you were wondering:

                                  The Yellowstone Volcano Observatory monitors volcanic activity and does not consider an eruption imminent.

                                  Interestingly, the buildup of magma causes the plateau to be uplifted by about 1 in. per year on average, which is one of the ways we monitor it. NASA studied how we could go about preventing an imminent eruption by cooling the magma, but another scientist said we could accidentally trigger it by trying. We may have to wait for something else for our next extinction event though. Yellowstone going off again soon would be a bit ahead of schedule.

                                  Most of the other articles were just fleetingly topical to a conversation or book or something. Cymothoa exigua is interesting though. It's a fish parasite that severs the tongue of its host and effectively replaces it. I think I looked at it from another thread where people were posting their favorite deep sea animals.

                                    Now I kind of want to have a daily Lemmy thread where we read and discuss a random Wikipedia article as a community.

                                      • HSL and HSV

                                      I wanted to know the difference between them because I was drawing digitally and changed the color picker settings.

                                      • Doorway effect

                                      I was wondering why we forget stuff when walking into a different room sometimes.

                                      • Compose key

                                      I don't remember—but I know the compose key is useful.

                                      • Budgie (desktop environment)

                                      Saw a post on Lemmy about recent protests in the US so I went and checked how big protests were.

                                      • Father's Day

                                      It was Father's Day in some places, but not where I live, so I was curious about Father's Day dates.

                                          My wife sent me Andrees Arctic Balloon Expedition. From there, the rabbit hole into Svalbard was self-inflicted.
