It has never happened, so the best we can do is speculate with what we know. The US and Russia did conduct some atmospheric nuclear detonations that unintentionally created EMP's. And determined yes it would be a bad day. From https:&

tbh I am more worried of an EMP nuke detonated high in the atmosphere than localized nuclear explosions. An EMP would lead to famines and total chaos.

Ideally they would pull the plug on Nord Stream, but people would freeze. That's a hard ask. They're going as far as they can without hurting themselves too much. Cutting Russian banks off from SWIFT was a tough call.

This isn't about censorship. It's about an economic embargo.

Ever heard the phrase "don't try to catch a falling knife"? We don't know how far this crisis will go. And we've only just started on the path of serious sanctions.

No. You are both right. That's the joke ...

Maybe so. But imo we should have built a strong nuclear industry including refining, power generation and waste disposal. Instead of digging rocks out of the ground and selling them abroad. We should refine them in Australia, lease the uran

Absolutely but every little bit helps. A thicker atmosphere also means less radiation, thus less radiation shielding required. I don't have numbers on hand but from what recall it is a significant enough of a difference to worthy consi

It is very exciting in the equatorial regions as it was typically assumed that because of the high summer temperatures (~70°F), any ice would melt and the water would evaporate. Valles Marineris would be an excellent location for a human se

Yeah I don't see why we can't use nukes. We just need bigger nukes and more of them. How about we drill the largest borehole we can, then drop a chain of nukes down it. ie detonate a nuke every 100m. First few can be Tsar Bomba&#x

I really like the Bollinger. For the same reasons as you. I'd buy it instead of the Cybertruck if it was price competitive. But I'm not going to pay $50k more just to avoid the smarts of a Cybertruck.

Bad idea to tax unrealized capital gains. Proposal; How about we gut our entire tax code and replace it with a single tax that taxes when money moves from one entity to another. Let's call it a Transaction Tax. It would replace Sales T

Fair enough. Though I think these cloud products need to be viewed in the context of their other services. The value you from of using these cloud products isn't necessarily their direct feature set. It is that the network activity sta

I feel your view of CF is about 4 years old. Combine CF's Cloud strategy with their IT/Security offerings (eg Cloudflare One), they are effectively building a new layer on the internet. Very sticky and hard to replicate unless you

Good. But it's not hard to spot people who deliberately apply these techniques and it always makes me suspicious. Or maybe the ones I spot are just bad at their craft.

Tesla is focused on making more affordable cars. But they need to get to a level of scale which will enable cheaper cars. There are basic economics related to battery production which prevent a really affordable car atm. This the problem th

I hope they are close to deciding where the next few factories will go. They probably need to start building those as soon as Texas and Berlin begin production.

If we have the ability, IMO we should bring back any species that humanity has made extinct in recent times, say 150 years without any hesitation (assuming we can do it safely). And I think it is our moral obligation to do so. We have been

"around the corner" is the problem. That isn't now. Li-ion is good enough and the tipping point has been reached where we can now have mass adoption of EV's with Li-ion. IMO it's more important to grow the EV market

I get why you want this. But please do not take advantage of a company & or the manager who hired you. If you're hired in a full time capacity, you should try to deliver on expectations. Maybe seek part-time or contract instead?
