Climate Modellers, Turn Around!

It may not be a fair observation but sometimes truths reveal in unexpected ways.  Here is a picture from the recent
climate modelling "hackathon."  [Story at  Expanding the discipline of climate informatics]




The problem as I see it is that they aren't looking out the window.  The problem with all climate models IMHO.

Bare butts are not misconstruable. They are a part of not taking women seriously. I remember pleading before a Court of appeals and one of the judges had an isn't she cute look on his face. I like sex as much as anybody. But that look was inappropriatelling for the occasion

I am now going to do the womanly task of making scrambled eggs.

Heinlein had a phrase: as delicately as a gallant suggestion to a proud lady.

?¡Huh!¿

Rob Dawg said...

Cinco, Liz thought a racy picture from 2008 was too racy. It was a visual to go along with the subject of spanking the bottom of the housing market which I suggested was nowhere near.

Rob Dawg said...

Darn. My 23k hat is already obsolete. And how about that Ford?

Lawyerliz said...

It went to 24? How many cars were destroyed in the fires and floods. A couple hundred thousand I bet. Or more.

Lawyerliz said...

Ford,nearly vertical! Wish contractors and roofers could be manufactured as fast!

Well, New Mexico had the warmest ever November this year. At least two degrees above the previous average.

Cruising for a bruising?

Son is expecting a 10 to 20% correction

24K, now printing 25K get yours before it's to late!

I believe in global warming, wait just a minute this just came in, snow Monday back to the regular scheduled weather. ;)

Trump proposes to shrink the Escalante NatMon by half. Not a big deal. It is huge and not that special.

Lawyerliz said...

NatMon ?

Rob Dawg said...

National Monument. Obama was quick to name this one. I am strongly in favor of new set asides but this was not legitimate.

Lawyerliz said...

Hub ages with warming.but says the models are not good and modelers agree.

Lawyerliz said...

Hub Agrees. I didn't think the pic was racy. I could show n you racy. I thought it was insulting

Lawyerliz said...

Abrey Beardsley. Many Greek sculptures. Even more vases.

Rob Dawg said...

IPCC accepted 97 models. That means 96?at least are wrong. Would you take a pill with 99% bad medicine?

Rob Dawg said...

I have never posted naughty bits. I have done cheesecake and beefcake and tushies. Even those have been tangential to the topic. I seem to remember you expressing admiration for muscular firemen several years back.

Lawyerliz said...

From 2008? Hahaha. SEXY began in 2008. Hahaha.

Lawyerliz said...

Gloddess, you never forget. Those weren't insulting. In the e take of butt grabbing, it is.

Rob Dawg said...

I'm willing to grant leeway to imagery with subject content beyond being merely salacious. If it would make a nice sculpture, if it lends context, if it makes a point. I won't ever get my eight-pack back but I can live vicariously.

Lawyerliz said...

97 models. You look at all or most of them and try to. Figure I tv out. But you know that.

Rob Dawg said...

The 97 models thing is not a collective effort. 96 are flat out wrong st best.

Lawyerliz said...

Don't need to be,.I think. Same as hurricane spagetti models, I think.

Rob Dawg said...

If the models were left to stand on their own you are correct. Problem is IPCC blends them to make three scenarios.

Lawyerliz said...

Blend 'Em and separate them and see what comes nm out. There aren't even equations.for some of what they need to do. Osmosis. Hub
.

Lawyerliz said...

Snow rain hurricanes etc they are all data points. Remember we are in a warm period in an ice age

TJandTheBear said...

You could've at least left a link to the image so that we could all judge! ;-)

You don't understand. What's more you can't understand.

Lawyerliz said...

Some poor actual woman had to stand that way. You think she liked it?

LBD said...

Good Morning!

Sadly many people including woman are exhibitionists have no problem with being photographed, especially when money is involved.

59F today Snow still coming Monday. :)

Cinco-X said...

You should avoid any landing strip visuals on any aviation related posts

Cinco-X said...

Looks like we'll get to wait until the week after next for wintery weather...

Odds on tax bill passing

LBD said...

They got one of the 4 losers to vote yes I hear, so I bet it does. Question is will it help you or not and will it affect your vote?

Unknown said...

0 percent. Republicans fight amongst themselves, fail to pass anything, blame democrats for block voting, the beat goes on.

Unknown said...

I don't find images of paid actors/models insulting. Do you find porn insulting? strip clubs? hooters? IMO, it's all about consent.

LBD said...

The problem is becoming a sick addiction. No different then alcohol or drugs.

prairiedog said...

Escalante Grand Staircase is one of the most beautiful places I have ever visited, and I have visited most of the National Parks and Monuments. Even lived in some as my first husband was a Park Ranger.

Rob Dawg said...

Escalante Grand Staircase is Southwest Beautiful. My "complaint" is with Obama's overreach in expanding.

New post.

Lawyerliz said...

I'll find a picture.

Lawyerliz said...

I might hurt my son. He has a military tuition waiver. For a large amount. He hpays interest. But taxes on capital at end.? Not a part of agreement. Affects a lot of people.
