Don't worry, your AR goggles will filter out whatever elements you don't like in a given scene. Personally I think it would probably look pretty cool so I'll leave them in.

They've always allowed controlled burns. I've personally seen them happen in California in regional parks. The problem seems to be that not many authorities want to do them because of liability concerns. In any case, I meant that

With garbage, the alternative is to haul it off to a dump. Fine. With a forest, what is the alternative? Are you going to call in landscapers to clear out a forest and set up a giant composting facility?

I definitely don't believe that climate change is the main reason for the proliferation of large fires over the past 5-6 years. I believe that California naturally has a lot of fires and humans have made it worse by putting out the sma

So this sets aside money to cover claims against controlled burns that ultimately cause unintended damages. Instead of $20M, the budget should be whatever the total damages were on average per year for the past ten years.

Saying that air pollution shouldn't be one of the deciding factors when considering whether to do a controlled burn is very different from saying it should be a free for all.

My own independent research suggests the true statistic is that 40% were drunk. Not high. I highly doubt many felons were high on mj, in a k hole, rolling, or tripping. Alcohol is way more conducive to violence. Some other substances like P

Setting aside that there are plenty of viable alternatives to building a city that requires cars, our cars also have plenty of room to get safer with no loss of utility. We really could get by with 95% fewer ginormous pickups, and cars don&

Saying cannabis is safer than caffeine simply reveals your personal biases. Cannabis is less harmful than alcohol but its users dramatically underplay its side effects. Caffeine is only bad for sleep, or in extreme doses.

Yeah, this was a very uninteresting article to me. The real challenge would have been to make the extension architecture not terrible. That would have also had the nice side effect of enabling other extensions to become more performant. Asi

I don't really know how to compare the prosperity of ancient Sumeria and Denmark, but ancient Rome did conquer ancient Egypt and the reverse never happened. The fact that the industrial revolution occurred far away from the equator sup

Actually the claim was that the global poor are close to the equator. Given how little motivation I have to even move when it's very hot, and how moving is required to generate wealth, and how recently A/C was invented, it's

Google doesn't sell your data. They use your data to sell ads. Big difference. Cambridge analytica was a Facebook scandal, not Google. And if you haven't noticed, literally every tech company (apple, Amazon, Ms, Netflix,...) is no

Google historically was pretty chillaxed and let managers set standards for their team. It sounds like now Google is going to be tracking attendance a bit more closely. I don't think Google would be doing this if it didn't have da
