They're wild viruses, but we've given them the perfect environment to mutate: massive populations of animals packed as closely together as possible. It's no coincidence this is happening now. We've tripled poultry produ

This wasn't the first virus spawned by animal agriculture, and it won't be the last. I'm sure that people are genuinely concerned, but their concern rarely leads them to question their participation in the systems that cause

Ah, I think I understand now. It's not the amount of data (rows), it's how that data is structured (columns). I thought you were saying that number of columns was more important than number of rows, which clashed with my naive int

That really depends on your definition of comfortable living. Hedonic adaptation is like a self-powered treadmill.

Sounds like another argument in favor of a land value tax: it can't be avoided by hiding one's wealth overseas.
