😂Weather alert: extreme temperatures and hate speech
📊Hot and cold weather impacts on the use of hate speeches on social networks, according to research published by the Lancet Health.
▪️Scientists used a supervised machine-learning approach to identify hate messages in a dataset containing around four billion geolocated tweets from 773 cities across the US.
▪️Then, they statistically evaluated the changes in daily hate tweets against local temperatures, isolating the temperature influence from confounding factors using binned panel regression models.
▪️The prevalence of hate tweets was lowest at moderate temperatures (12 to 21°C), while marked increases in the number of hate tweets were observed at hotter and colder temperatures, reaching up to 12.5% for cold temperature extremes (–6 to –3°C) and up to 22% for hot temperature extremes (42 to 45°C).

🚇 Advocates make push for Montreal-to-Boston passenger rail
Rail advocates are dusting off a proposal for passenger train service between Montreal and Boston, riding a renewed interest in train travel to bolster a concept that has been around for more than a decade.
A market study suggests about 4,000 people travel daily between Montreal and Boston, and about 1,000 of them would opt for rail service if it’s available. The service would be profitable with only 200 riders.
The proposal comes against a backdrop of a rail revival, and more than $100 billion in railway infrastructure funding approved by Congress. The most optimistic view is that the project would need at least two years to become a reality
