  12. Ready for another duo in Hebrew that has entirely different meaning based on the syllable that is stressed?

    To say, they are DIVORCED, We use the Hebrew word /g-roo-'sheem/, in Hebrew with no Nikkud and we stress the last syllable in that word.

    To say that something is super inexpensive, it barely costs anything, it costs "pennies", native Israelis say /g-'roo-shem/, stressing the second to last syllable.

    Now, this is not just a random word. It is the plural form of the/g-'roosh, old "penny" currency that was used in the region.

    If you're new around here, welcome! And make sure to hop on board and start using my game-changing phonetic system (PSP) that allows you to read, write, and say every word in Hebrew correctly, like a true Israeli.

  14. Biosignature Hype

    I was thinking just the other day that I haven’t posted much in either the Astrohype or the Bad Statistics folders on this blog. Well today I found an item that belongs in both categories. Many people will have seen the widespread press coverage of a misleading claim of the discovery of alien life; see, e.g., here. This misleading press coverage is based on a misleading press release from the University of Cambridge which you can find here.

    The story is based on a paper in the pay-to-publish Astrophysical Journal Letters with the title “New Constraints on DMS and DMDS in the Atmosphere of K2-18 b from JWST MIRI“. The DMS and DMDS in the title refer to Dimethyl Sulphide and Dimethyl Disulphide respectively. These are interpreted by the authors as biosignatures.

    There are two main problems with this claim. One is that DMS and DMDS are not necessarily biosignatures in the first place; see here for the reasons. The other is that there isn’t even any evidence for the detection of DMS or DMDS anyway. Here is the spectrum of which the lead author of the paper, Prof. Nikku Madhusudhan, has claimed “the signal came through loud and clear”.

    Yeah, right. In statistical terms this is a non-detection. The Bayes Factor used in the paper to quantify the evidence for a model with DMS and/or DMDS over one without is just 2.62. That’s not a detection by any stretch of the imagination; to be anywhere near convincing a Bayes Factor has to be at least 100. The subsequent cherry-picking of the data to improve the apparent probability of a detection is just statistical flummery.

    Notice that the use of the phrase “Constraints on” in the title of the paper does not indicate that the article presents evidence that a detection has been made. That the claim has somehow morphed into the “the strongest evidence for life beyond our solar system” is absurd. The most charitable thing I can say is that Prof. Madhusudhan must have been carried away by enthusiasm. This doesn’t reflect very well on Cambridge University either.

    This episode worries me greatly. This is a time of increasing hostility towards science and this sort of thing can only make matters worse. Scientists need to be much more careful in communicating the uncertainties in their results.
