Un biais cognitif, c’est comme un piège dans notre tête. C’est quand notre cerveau fait une erreur sans qu’on s’en rende compte. Il croit qu’il pense bien, mais en fait, il se trompe un peu. C’est comme porter des lunettes qui changent un peu la réalité : on voit les choses d’une façon spéciale, mais pas toujours juste
🧃 1. Biais de confirmation
C’est quand tu penses qu’une chose est vraie, et tu cherches seulement ce qui te donne raison. 📌 Exemple : Tu dis : “Le jus de pomme, c’est le meilleur !” Alors tu écoutes seulement les copains qui disent “Oui, moi aussi j’adore !” Mais tu ignores ceux qui préfèrent le jus d’orange.
⸻
🧒 2. Effet de groupe (ou biais de conformité)
C’est quand tu fais comme tout le monde, même si ce n’est pas ce que tu veux vraiment. 📌 Exemple : Tu veux dessiner un chien, mais tous les autres dessinent des chats. Alors tu dessines un chat aussi, juste pour être comme eux.
⸻
🍭 3. Biais d’ancrage
C’est quand la première chose qu’on te dit influence ce que tu crois, même si ce n’est pas logique. 📌 Exemple : On te dit : “Ce bonbon coûte 10 dinars !” Puis on te dit : “Mais je te le fais à 5 dinars, c’est une super affaire !” Tu crois que c’est pas cher… alors qu’un bonbon de 5 dinars, c’est déjà beaucoup !

On July 3, 1863, the Battle of Gettysburg reached its climax, with 140,000 troops facing each other on the battlefield. From Culp’s Hill to the fields south of town, Day 3’s battles—culminating in Pickett’s Charge—produced over 15,000 casualties, deciding the battle’s outcome. Lee’s Confederates staked everything on breaking Meade’s Union line, while the Army of the Potomac fought to hold the high ground.
At dawn on July 3rd, Meade’s 85,000 Union troops fortified their fishhook line along Cemetery Hill, Culp’s Hill, and Cemetery Ridge, bolstered by II, III, and XII Corps. Meade anticipated a Confederate attack, focusing on defense. Lee, with 65,000 men, held Seminary Ridge and Gettysburg, his army battered but resolute.
Frustrated by Day 2’s failures, Lee planned a massive assault on the Union center, led by Longstreet, with Pickett’s fresh division, while Ewell renewed attacks on Culp’s Hill and Stuart’s cavalry probed the Union lines to the rear. Both commanders braced for a decisive confrontation under the sweltering July heat.
At 4:00 AM, Union XII Corps, under Brig. Gen. George S. Greene, launched a counterattack to reclaim Culp’s Hill trenches lost to Johnson’s Confederates on July 2nd.
Over 10,000 Union troops, backed by artillery, blasted Ewell’s brigades—Steuart’s and Daniel’s—in a seven-hour slugfest. By 11:00 AM, relentless Union assaults, led by regiments like the 137th New York, drove the Confederates off the hill, securing the Union right. The fighting, marked by heavy musketry and cannon fire, cost over 2,000 casualties, ending Lee’s hopes of turning Meade’s flank and shifting his focus to the Union center.
Around noon, Confederate cavalry under Maj. Gen. J.E.B. Stuart, 6,000 strong, clashed with Union cavalry under Brig. Gen. David M. Gregg east of Gettysburg at Rummel’s Farm. Lee aimed to disrupt Union lines, but Gregg’s 5,000 troopers, including Custer’s brigade, stood firm. Custer rallied the 1st Michigan, shouting, “Come on, you Wolverines!”
After hours of mounted and dismounted fighting, and about 500 casualties, Stuart’s advance was halted. Securing Meade’s rear and foiling the Confederate flanking maneuver.
Late on July 3, Union cavalry under Brig. Gen. Elon Farnsworth, part of Kilpatrick’s division, launched a doomed charge against Longstreet’s right flank south of Big Round Top. Ordered to disrupt Confederate lines, Farnsworth’s 300 troopers faced Law’s infantry and artillery across rocky terrain.
Around 5:00 PM, the 1st Vermont and others charged, only to be cut down by rifle volleys and canister fire. Farnsworth fell, and his brigade lost over 100 men in minutes. The futile attack, criticized as reckless, had little impact but highlighted the day’s relentless violence.
At 1:00 PM, 150 Confederate cannons, stretching along Seminary Ridge, unleashed a thunderous two-hour bombardment on the Union center at Cemetery Ridge. The barrage, meant to soften Meade’s line, sent shells screaming into II Corps’ positions under Maj. Gen. Winfield S. Hancock. Eighty Union guns, led by Col. Freeman McGilvery, replied, cloaking the field in smoke. Despite the deafening roar, Union troops, sheltered behind stone walls and earthworks, suffered minimal losses.
The artillery duel, one of the war’s largest, set the stage for Lee’s climactic assault, as both sides braced for the decisive moment, Pickett’s Charge.
At 3:00 PM, 12,500 Confederates—Pickett’s, Pettigrew’s, and Trimble’s divisions—emerged from Seminary Ridge for Pickett’s Charge. Advancing a mile across open fields, they faced a storm of Union artillery from Cemetery Ridge, led by Lt. Alonzo Cushing’s battery.
Hancock’s II Corps, including the 69th Pennsylvania and 1st Minnesota, unleashed devastating rifle volleys. Pickett’s Virginians, with Armistead’s brigade, breached the Angle’s stone wall, but Union counterattacks, led by Col. George Stannard’s Vermonters, crushed the assault. Over 6,000 Confederates fell, including Armistead, in a catastrophic defeat.
Day 3’s battles cemented Union victory. Culp’s Hill’s recapture secured the right, while cavalry fights east and south, led by Custer and Gregg, blocked the Confederate threats. Pickett’s Charge, a disastrous failure, cost Lee 6,000 men, with total Day 3 casualties nearing 15,000—8,000 Confederate, 7,000 Union. Meade’s line held firm. Lee’s dream of victory collapsed, forcing a retreat. The Union, bloodied but triumphant, claimed the field, setting the stage for the war’s turning point.
Lee’s army, with 28,000 losses, would retreat the next day, July 4th. Meade, with 23,000 casualties, did not pursue, sparking debate. Critics, including Lincoln, argued he missed a chance to crush Lee. Defenders cite Meade’s exhausted troops, low supplies, and Lee’s still-formidable army, arguing caution preserved the victory.
Gettysburg shifted the war’s tide, but Meade’s restraint, praised by some and scorned by others, left the Confederacy’s in tact dragging the war on for two more years.

You can't get any more "impartial" than the forensic methodology of this documentary, but we've gotten to the point where any objectivity when it comes to Israel is considered "partiality" against them.
At least Channel 4 is airing the documentary, Gaza: Doctors Under Attack, if my time zone calculations are correct, in about half an hour from now?
The documentary, being broadcast on Wednesday night, came close to not being seen at all on British TV after months of delayed dates, acrimonious negotiations and concerns over partiality, writes Rachel Clun
'More than a hundred BBC employees have written a letter to the director general, Tim Davie, complaining that the Corporation has become a mouthpiece for Israel.
It was also signed by 300 other journalists and media professionals: one of them was yours truly. The BBC employees, as you would expect, are all anonymous, because otherwise they would face grave consequences to their careers.
The letter says:
We’re writing to express our concerns over opaque editorial decisions and censorship at the BBC on the reporting of Israel/Palestine. We believe the refusal to broadcast the documentary ‘Gaza: Medics Under Fire’ is just one in a long line of agenda driven decisions. It demonstrates, once again, that the BBC is not reporting “without fear or favour” when it comes to Israel.
It goes on to note that the decision not to broadcast the investigation was taken by BBC management despite the content being signed off in accordance with BBC guidelines and editorial policy, which it says “Appears to be a political decision”, adding that the BBC response shows the organisation “is crippled by the fear of being perceived as critical of the Israeli government.”'

An Open Letter to BBC Management, Written by BBC Journalists and Signed by Media Industry Professionals
A message to the BBC Director General, the Board of Governors and our BBC Colleagues.
We’re writing to express our concerns over opaque editorial decisions and censorship at the BBC on the reporting of Israel/Palestine. We believe the refusal to broadcast the documentary ‘Gaza: Medics Under Fire’ is just one in a long line of agenda driven decisions. It demonstrates, once again, that the BBC is not reporting “without fear or favour” when it comes to Israel.
We understand that a decision not to broadcast the investigation has been taken by senior BBC management despite the film’s content being signed off in accordance with BBC guidelines and editorial policy. This appears to be a political decision and is not reflective of the journalism in the film. A recent statement from the BBC said broadcasting the film “risked creating the perception of partiality".This illustrates precisely what many of us have experienced first hand: an organisation that is crippled by the fear of being perceived as critical of the Israeli government.
We are not asking the BBC to take a side. We are asking to be allowed to do our jobs in delivering facts transparently and with due context. For many of us, our efforts have been frustrated by opaque decisions made at senior levels of the BBC without discussion or explanation. Our failures impact audiences. As an organisation we have not offered any significant analysis of the UK government's involvement in the war on Palestinians. We have failed to report on weapons sales or their legal implications. These stories have instead been broken by the BBC’s competitors.
This hasn’t happened by accident, rather by design. Much of the BBC’s coverage in this area is defined by anti-Palestinian racism. The inconsistent manner in which guidance is applied draws into focus the role of Sir Robbie Gibb, on the BBC Board and BBC’s Editorial Standards Committee. We are concerned that an individual with close ties to the Jewish Chronicle, an outlet that has repeatedly published anti-Palestinian and often racist content, has a say in the BBC's editorial decisions in any capacity, including the decision not to broadcast ‘Gaza: Medics Under Fire’.
This conflict of interest highlights a double standard for BBC content makers who have themselves experienced censorship in the name of ‘impartiality’. In some instances staff have been accused of having an agenda because they have posted news articles critical of the Israeli government on their social media. By comparison, Gibb remains in an influential post with little transparency regarding his decisions despite his ideological leanings being well known. We can no longer ask license fee payers to overlook Gibbs’ ideological allegiances.
Since October 2023 it has become increasingly clear to our audiences that the BBC’s reporting on Israel / Palestine falls short of our own editorial standards. There is a gulf between the BBC’s coverage of what is happening in Gaza and the West Bank and what our audiences can see is happening via multiple credible sources including human rights organisations, staff at the UN and journalists on the ground. Whilst there has been some exceptional content from some areas of the BBC (within documentary and from some individual correspondents for example), news in particular has failed to report the reality and the context of the war on Palestinians. All too often it has felt that the BBC has been performing PR for the Israeli government and military. This should be a cause of great shame and concern for everyone at the BBC.
Despite these failings, there has been a major shift within public discourse in recent months. Increasingly the scale of Israel's crimes against the Palestinians are being understood by the public as well as many of our parliamentarians. The BBC’s editorial decisions seem increasingly out of step with reality. We have been forced to conclude that decisions are made to fit a political agenda rather than serve the needs of audiences. As industry insiders and as BBC staff, we have experienced this first hand. The issue has become even more urgent with recent escalations in the region. Again, BBC coverage has appeared to downplay Israel's role, reinforcing an ‘Israel first’ framing that compromises our credibility.
We, the undersigned BBC staff, freelancers and industry figures are extremely concerned that the BBC’s reporting on Israel and Palestine continues to fall short of the standards our audiences expect. We believe the role of Robbie Gibb, both on the Board, and as part of the Editorial Standards Committee, is untenable. We call on the BBC to do better for our audiences and recommit to our values of impartiality, honesty and reporting without fear or favour.
Governments should NOT be allowed to appoint the directors of out our publicly funded state media service. This is the UK, not fucking Russia or North Korea.

« Pour aller plus loin, je me demande aussi : quelle est la meilleure des choses qui puisse t’arriver ? J’élabore alors des scénarios positifs, qui rechargent ma motivation. »
In a world flooded with bad news—conflict, crisis, scandal—something as simple as a good story can feel like a breath of fresh air. But good news isn’t just a mood booster. It’s a powerful force. Spreading positive stories doesn’t just lift spirits—it builds trust, strengthens communities, and drives real business value.
Good News Cuts Through the Noise
Negativity may dominate headlines, but research consistently shows that people want uplifting stories. When someone shares a story about a local business doing something generous, a small act of kindness, or a breakthrough solution to a common problem, it resonates. It sticks. In fact, positive stories often get shared more widely than doom-and-gloom pieces, especially on social media.
Why? Because people crave hope. They want something to believe in. That makes good news not just nice to have—it makes it a smart communication strategy.
Positivity Builds Brand Loyalty
For businesses, positive press can do what expensive ads never could: build credibility and connection. People don’t remember banner ads—they remember stories. A company that launches a community initiative, supports a cause, or innovates to solve a problem isn’t just another seller in the market. It becomes a brand people want to root for.
And here's where most businesses miss the mark. They wait for the media to find their story instead of telling it themselves.
Own the Narrative—Don’t Wait for the Spotlight
One of the smartest moves a brand can make is to control its own narrative. Waiting for a journalist to call rarely works, and hiring a traditional PR firm can run thousands of dollars per month—out of reach for small businesses, startups, nonprofits, or solo entrepreneurs.
That’s where online press release distribution platforms come in. They empower anyone—from small business owners to local community leaders—to share their good news with the world.
A Cost-Effective PR Solution That Works
For those looking for an affordable and effective way to spread good news, PR News Releaser stands out. It’s a streamlined, easy-to-use platform designed to help people and businesses get their news in front of a wider audience—without the bloated costs or gatekeeping of traditional PR.
Whether you’re launching a new product, announcing a charitable partnership, or celebrating a milestone, PR News Releaser offers press release distribution services that get your message published across a network of relevant sites and indexed by search engines like Google and Bing.
This isn’t just about press—it’s about visibility. A well-written release on the right platform can boost SEO, increase traffic, and build momentum for whatever you’re working on. And unlike expensive PR agencies, this service is built to be accessible—even for small budgets.
Real Stories, Real Impact
Consider the ripple effect of one good story. A local bakery starts giving away free loaves of bread to low-income families and shares that initiative through a press release. That story gets picked up by local blogs, then shared on social media, and soon, customers are lining up to support the bakery—not just because the bread is good, but because they believe in the people behind it.
This isn’t a fluke. It’s a formula: good action, well told, broadly shared. And PR News Releaser helps make that happen by putting the tools of publicity into the hands of everyday people—not just marketing departments with massive budgets.
The Psychology of Positivity
Good news has another overlooked power: it makes people feel connected. In an era of division, fear, and isolation, positive stories can unite us. A press release highlighting a collaboration between two local businesses, for example, isn’t just a promotional tool. It’s a message: we’re stronger together.
Businesses and individuals that share positive news don’t just win attention—they win trust. And trust is the currency of long-term success.
Don’t Just Wait for the World to Notice—Speak Up
You don’t have to be a celebrity, influencer, or Fortune 500 company to tell your story. If you’ve done something worth sharing—if you’ve helped someone, made something better, or even just taken a small step in the right direction—share it. Shine a light on it.
Positive news matters. It shapes perception. It influences behavior. It creates opportunity. And in a world that’s often too loud with bad news, one good story can go a long way.
So, the next time something good happens in your business, your nonprofit, your neighborhood—don’t keep it to yourself. Publish it. Promote it. Let it spread.
Platforms like PR News Releaser make that easier and more affordable than ever. Because good news deserves to be heard—and now, it finally can be.
« Contrairement à l’anxiété, le stress a un objet : quelque chose, ou quelqu’un, nous stresse. On distingue plusieurs sources de stress :
l’environnement : le bruit, la foule, un lieu de vie oppressant ;l ’univers professionnel : au travail, ou durant nos études, nous pouvons ressentir de la pression à accomplir une mission ou décrocher un diplôme ; les relations : certaines de nos fréquentations sont stressantes. Ami négatif, proche toxique ; les difficultés : la vie peut nous apporter son lot de mauvaises surprises (accident, maladie, catastrophe naturelle…) ou rompre notre équilibre (divorce, problèmes financiers…). »
« Le stress est une réaction naturelle du corps et de l’esprit face à une situation perçue comme difficile ou menaçante. En réponse, notre organisme sécrète du cortisol, l’hormone du stress, afin que nous nous mobilisions et sauvions notre peau. La fréquence cardiaque, la pression artérielle et le rythme de respiration augmentent : nous sommes en alerte, aptes à réagir ! Défini ainsi, le stress est positif. Malheureusement, quand il est trop important, il entraîne de l’hypervigilance ou de l’agitation. Le corps et l’esprit s’emballent. Dans d’autres cas, il peut paralyser : nous ne savons plus comment agir. »

C'est l'article économique le plus ahurissant que vous lirez cette année. Il revient sur les soixante dix auditions menées par le sénateur communiste Fabien Gay et son collègue LR Olivier Rietmann avec des grands patrons pour comprendre l'utilité des dizaines de milliards versés chaque année aux grandes entreprises. Réponse après tant de temps ? On en sait rien, on ne sait pas combien, on ne sait pas à quoi ça sert.
Les montants planchers de ces aides sont à 88 milliards (!!!) par an, mais certaines estimations vont au delà du double. Oui, oui, 200 milliards alloués chaque année aux grands groupes (+450 millions CA) et aucun d'entre eux n'a été foutu de dire à quoi cela sert à part la langue d'une pauvreté infinie de la start up nation en levée de fonds : "assurer la compétitivité", "financer l'excellence", "soutenir l'export" bla bla bla... Quand Fabien Gay montre à Alexandre Bompard les slides que ce dernier, chantre autoproclamée de la transparence, cachent au public, le patron tousse. On voit une corrélation entre le résultat net de la boîte, les dividendes versés aux actionnaires et les aides publiques allouées. "Est-ce que l'argent public a servi à rémunérer les actionnaires ?" une caravane d'anges passe....
Crédit impôt recherche bidon, financement des licenciements, du train de vie, financement des dividendes, ces 100 ou 200 milliards sont investis non pas en pure perte, mais très grandement quand même. Les lecteurices comme moi de l'économiste anne-laure Delatte le savait, mais là ce sont les chiffres de Bercy, rendus publics, pas contestés par les patrons (ils contestent l'utilité, pas les montants...). Et c'est aberrant.
Qui a déjà dirigé une association ou une structure publique sait qu'on doit rendre des comptes sur chaque ligne budgétaire, qu'on peut vous faire suer pendant des heures pour 10 000 euros avec le soupçon que vous vous soyez acheté un écran plat ou parti en voyage. Là, on les prend la main dans le pot de confiture avec deux fois le budget de l'éducation nationale (82 milliards....) utilisés principalement pour enrichir des rentiers oisifs qui investiront ce pognon dans des projets écocidaires ou en rachetant des immeubles pour aggraver la crise du logement. On a pris la Bastille pour moins que ça.
Au cours de six mois d’auditions, la commission d’enquête sénatoriale a cheminé dans les méandres des aides publiques, insistant sur le déni démocratique que pose l’absence de transparence et d’évaluation de ce qui constitue, aujourd’hui, le premier …
Ancient Egyptian society flourished for millennia, reaching its peak during the Dynastic Period (approximately 3150–30 bce). However, owing to poor DNA preservation, questions about regional interconnectivity over time have not been addressed because whole-genome sequencing has not yet been possible. Here we sequenced a 2× coverage whole genome from an adult male Egyptian excavated at Nuwayrat (Nuerat, نويرات). Radiocarbon dated to 2855–2570 cal. bce, he lived a few centuries after Egyptian unification, bridging the Early Dynastic and Old Kingdom periods. The body was interred in a ceramic pot within a rock-cut tomb1, potentially contributing to the DNA preservation. Most of his genome is best represented by North African Neolithic ancestry, among available sources at present. Yet approximately 20% of his genetic ancestry can be traced to genomes representing the eastern Fertile Crescent, including Mesopotamia and surrounding regions. This genetic affinity is similar to the ancestry appearing in Anatolia and the Levant during the Neolithic and Bronze Age2,3,4,5. Although more genomes are needed to fully understand the genomic diversity of early Egyptians, our results indicate that contacts between Egypt and the eastern Fertile Crescent were not limited to objects and imagery (such as domesticated animals and plants, as well as writing systems)6,7,8,9 but also encompassed human migration.
Whole-genome sequencing of an ancient male Egyptian revealed a mixture of North African Neolithic and eastern Fertile Crescent ancestry, suggesting human migration between Egypt and Mesopotamia by the Old Kingdom period.
