This is actually a good point. I think I agree with the author that synthetic meat production as a 1:1 replacement for current meat consumption is not feasible, but that only leads me to question whether we should be eating all that meat in

About investment: It wasn't just that it would take investment, it was that the investment option for making difference in emissions were not feasible. From the article: > a facility that would use huge bioreactors to produce 10,000

Oh yeah, I'm not defending the journalism on that piece, just pointing out where he probably got confused. I think I only read it correctly because of all the context in this thread.

So the best thing to do is pre-emptively delete the recovery number from the account (providing you have alternative recovery options set up)?

I would agree, but it's observably not true since their brand going to shit has had no effect. If it had, they wouldn't continue being as terrible as they are.

If your goal is to help the environment, then stop this. You're accomplishing the opposite by pushing people like this away from your cause. Before you say "I don't need people like him on my side"; think about whether t

Isn't that much like how reporting of Microsoft during the 90s wasn't "sceptical", but just calling the pot black? At a certain point — i.e. given enough history — it's a given that a company acts against your best

Who to my dismay (though not surprise) have now also gone SaaS :( EDIT: I think I've misunderstood the V2 Universal License. Looks like it means I get access to all version 2 apps from Affinity.

If the MVP stays in production without further investment, then it's the product, there's nothing minimal about it. That's a decision. If a prototype or PoC is in production though, something's gone wrong. I build my pro

Unpopular take, but; good. If you're going to go vegan/vegetarian, just _go_ for it. Stop pining for things you can't have. No, nothing that is not steak will taste like steak — and there's nothing wrong with that! A veg
