The exercise took some doing. His $2,500 PC (not an Apple) possessed a 40-megabyte hard drive, the computing equivalent of amnesia. And he needed to program the machine with MS-DOS to make it run WordPerfect. (For younger readers, WordPerfect was the writing technology that replaced cave painting with aurochs blood.)

That's right, The Albany Project 2.0 is coming and this time we're bringing a whole new bag of tricks to the fight. We're coming back smarter and meaner and we're not going to leave any tools in the box this time around. And we're not just re-launching a "blog." We're going to do some serious organizing this time around and we're working to put some seriously cutting edge tools in the hands of activists from Watertown to Montauk.

They looked at conflicts between individuals—“domestic violence, road rage, assault, murder, and rape”—as well as conflicts between larger human groups—“riots, ethnic violence, land invasions, gang violence, civil war and other forms of political instability, such as coups.” The end result? The researchers determined that changes in drought and rainfall patterns, but especially increases in temperature, all have a meaningful link to increases in both forms of violence. “We find that deviations from moderate temperatures and precipitation patterns systematically increase the risk of conflict, often substantially, with average effects that are highly statistically significant,” the researchers wrote.
