man, the climate apathy on this website discourages me. i thought HN users were smart? yall are blinded by your desire to be a contrarian and skeptic.

  HN users are just like most people: smart in their area of expertise and wildly optimistic about how smart they are outside of it.

    Maybe. Or we know junk science and fake data when we see it. I guess the 'replication crisis' doesn't apply to the holy climate science.

      What do you mean by "replication crisis" in relation to this data?

        > Sponges from the Caribbean retain a record of ocean temperatures stretching back hundreds of years. That's not data. That's method. Probably cannot be replicated.

  I still remember the big group of climate change deniers on Slashdot in the early 00s. The consensus was that it was not real.
