Is people's continued belief in dunning-kruger proof of dunning-kruger?

Water Footprint in Cotton 2020-2024: A Global Analysis - International Cotton Advisory Committee

Cotton production is often misrepresented, particularly regarding its water consumption, and is frequently labeled a "thirsty crop" based on calculations of water use efficiency-measured as the total water (rainfall plus irrigation) required to produce one kilogram of lint. This study revealed that the annual average water used to produce one kilogram of cotton lint was 8,927 litres, comprising 6,582 litres/kg lint from rainwater and 2,346 litres/kg lint from irrigation water.
Small antidote on a single farm in North Carolina. It seems we still grow cotton without irrigation at all in some places. This is probably really unusual and seems like the kind of thing you'd need to deliberately look for in a farm.
Since the Burlesons don’t irrigate, the wheat cover crop proves particularly beneficial for maintaining crop moisture in hot, dry years. But Andrew says the greatest benefit is that it returns organic matter to the soil.

This doesn't have exact numbers at all, but it's the gold standard peer reviewed* "hemp industry daily" so meh, I'd expect them to be promoting it if anything
“I’ve heard a lot of people promoting hemp as a low-water-use crop, and from what I’ve seen, it’s pretty high compared to other crops,”

Cotton as a textile also just isn't a 1:1 replacement for wool (re: the other thread), but I don't think any other plant textiles are either. A shame. But on water use, wool is so much worse than cotton. Probably literally anything from plant fibers is like an order of magnitude better than wool.

Spoilers for Gundam Witch From Mecury, but realisticly you likely already know if you've seen anything about it
@lethalbit
Also having yuri in it didn't hurt 
@lethalbit
It was my first gundam anime and I had fun overall watching it. There were parts I didn't love, mainly I am getting tired of every anime being in high school including now gundam, but it wasn't enough to "ruin" the show for me.

A couple mutuals boosted this and I looked at your profile; do you have a blog or git repo somewhere you talk about your database? I'm curious about that :3

@domo @mynameistillian
+1 to rainbow plant life ! Her recipes are so good.
I think one of the best home cooking techniques you can learn in general is being comfortable substituting things. I don't mean substituting vegan alternatives to meat, more like using whatever vegetables you have on hand instead of worrying about having everything perfect. Saves some money when you shop on what's in season or on sale. This comes with some experience and experimenting.

This is great. I disabled everything in settings but frequently use "private" windows that don't remember that
