Have you looked at stackpath?

Yes, that's one of the possibilities here. However the point of the comment and what the article illustrates in my view, is that these grand projects can turnout to be horribly misguided in retrospect. And you may say to that, "bu

The question frames a false alternative in 'rigid dogma'. In a generous interpretation, I'd say that this line of reasoning quickly devolves into a chicken and egg scenario. 1) I changed my mind about the facts. 2) I declare

I'd describe a consensus as a political event, not a scientific one.

Fact check sites like the one you listed will increase their stature when they acknowledge that science is not a process of consensus. I look forward to reading a "fact check" site which "debunks" this ridiculous turn of

Is there any irony in observing the fickle preferences of man in regards to geoengineering? Perhaps our understanding is more limited than some are willing to admit. 63 years ago, there was a push to warm the arctic. In 1978, doomsayers pre

There's plenty of rationalization for noise pollution on this thread. In my view you're closer to the mark. Drivers honk at red lights, which is completely irrational. "Honk more, wait more - Mumbai" https://w

Try doing something physically exhausting. Otherwise, if you're just hacking in the lab, you're going to be up all night. I think this is normal and inevitable. Even the fictional Dr. Frankenstein had similar habits. My strategy h

I don't find it complicated to use. Like any other stove top item, you can't leave it on to burn. I can see how this might be difficult for some in a morning rush. When I need a break from the computer, I find the ritual relaxing.

Agreed. Less is more. Tools should do one thing and do it well. I don't want to install a huge package and dependencies just to get one feature. Generally feel pessimistic about the "future" of IDEs. The phrase brings bloat t

They recently bought Uniregistry and transferred all of the customer domains. If you had a Uniregistry account, you can't transfer away from GoDaddy for 3 months from the date, coming up in a few weeks. As much as I am looking forward

Perhaps it would be possible to use liquid carbon dioxide. The change from liquid to gas inside the vacuum chamber might help disperse the energy.

This is all besides the point, as I mentioned above. The narrative promoted by YT and the MSM isn't accepted by around 50% of the US. Pick any contentious issue you feel is settled and take an honest look at the dissenting views. Consi

This is more about the deranged author and their perception of economics as a zero-sum game, than a satirical social commentary. Perhaps I misread the piece. Maybe they were satirizing the out of touch socialist's perspective?
