It matters because if specific hard-to-predict one-off events hadn’t happened (e.g the Brexit vote), the optimists might have come out looking much better.

This looks really cool, but they should make it clearer that you only get one submission per day, and they're not going to check that your answer is valid before submitting. I submitted this (wrong) answer 1. e3 Na6 2. Bxa6 Nf6 3. Bf1

The climate crisis has proven pretty thoroughly that companies will choose short term profit over humanity’s long term success every time. Public companies are literally forced to do so.

At some number of 0s, white collar crimes are more damaging to society than violent ones. $10 billion definitely meets that threshold, there has to be a deterrent.

Do you think pretty much the entire web looks awful then? Because HTML rendering collapses whitespace by default. Your comment renders with only a single space after the period, despite the fact that you typed 2.

Asking someone to maintain an untyped codebase is like asking them to play a game without telling them any of the rules.

I’ve always thought terraform was kind of a perfect name, making large-scale changes to thousands of resources with a single command really does feel like terraforming.

That would encourage a much more boring style of gameplay. If you can’t launch a surprise attack because the audience will give it away, the best strategy would be to slowly and incrementally build up a gold and experience advantage.

FWIW you can look at the network traffic in your browser devtools and verify that only the public key is being sent to them. You can even hit their API endpoint with the public key you want to add manually, I just tried it and it worked. Ei

You can do that in Google Meet. I just checked in an incognito window, the only thing I needed to enter to join a meeting was a name. I never really understood why people like Zoom's UX, I find it unintuitive and awkward.
