Repeat after me: artificial, made by humans, human-made, not natural
Novel scientific method proves pit circle near Stonehenge was man-made, say researchers
Novel scientific method proves pit circle near Stonehenge was man-made, say researchers
Archaeologists use multiple types of geophysics equipment to analyse ‘extraordinary structure’
The presence of an extraordinary circle of yawning pits created by Neolithic people near Stonehenge has been proved thanks to a novel combination of scientific techniques, a team of archaeologists is claiming.
While the architects of Stonehenge had the heavens in mind when they built the great stone monument in Wiltshire, the team believes the makers of the Durrington pit circle may have been more interested in an underworld. Continue reading...

Labour will never, ever name this
🔥 Rachel Reeves says there’s a “hole” in the public finances.
A new decade-long Brexit study quantifies it:
A 6–8% hit to GDP
That's £180bn-£240bn a year
It means less tax revenue and so less money for everything.
Brexit made Britain MUCH poorer.

I've referred to this as the Dan Brown test before now...
His novels seem well-thought out *unless* you actually know anything about one of the topics... And then the whole house of cards comes toppling.
Realised that whilst reading... Digital Fortress I think.

Saw an interesting piece of advice recently: ask the AI search engines for an answer in a field in which you are very knowledgeable.
The results will make it clear just how much they get wrong, and how brazen they are about it.
Now, apply that to every subject in which you are NOT an expert.

Looked up “what mobile parking app do I need for <this town>” - AI summary on Google confidently gave me the wrong answer, which I ignored because **it is wrong a third of the time, about ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING** (according to the last study I read.)
The shit just doesn’t work.

Good article, it doesn't fully explain the impact though. While patterns are quite cheap, yarn and people's time are not. Especially starting out, folks are often frightened that they can't do it, so a false pattern could stop someone in their tracks

1. A landmark study was just published in The Journal of Pediatrics.
It found a 68% reduction in suicidality for trans youth getting HRT.
It also found only 7 of more than 400 stopped taking HRT... and of those that did, 4 still identified as gender-diverse.
