How is this not 'good'? This is exactly what nature/life has been doing, adapting and responding to changing conditions. Life as we understand it does not evolved to maintain a static equilibrium of any given region but a glo

With all due respect to the author of this, this is not particularly strong reasoning for or against UBI. It is very myopic, shallow point of view a single implementation issue, without even discussing others. However, it turns out that the

Unfortunately this is 2021 article. That was a year with virtually the lowest lithium prices, which right now are 5 fold higher putting unspeakable pressures on the entire industry. The rest of the materials are in even worst shape, just to

I see where you coming from (I can concur a kind of similar trend in space research academia in the leading EU countries as far as I can tell and hear from colleagues). Although, I do not think this is a 'directed' by someone or s

Neither of those statements make any sense no matter which direction one tries to go with it (they are just blank statements of no significance, no validity and neither is rooted in reality -- just spending one day at wikipedia may help to

Who writes this stuff? These people openly demonstrate no concept of scales, or they choose to ignore it because it would annihilate any perceived validity/value of their string of statements they put together. I am at loss to understa

I am personally not a fan of this style of rebuttal on the climate-state-sponsored-religion. While I have plenty of reservations against the current state, institutional vested interests and science itself on this topic (conceptual and&#x2F

The role of propaganda and psy-ops on the populations is well known to be the playing field of modern states*. This study offers clues and methods of operations of Russia. Nothing would be more interesting in today's global situation o

Thanks for the PDF. It is a question to the scientists why the Northern reef which has seen the most extensive bleaching is now recovering the fastest. Also, the report indicates that 2/3 of the B.R. is showing unprecedented growth. I

I am sceptical of the entire premise, but even more so of the details. The summary is not informative enough to judge what was actually done, and the devil is, as usual in the details. What Im getting is that both, "doze-rate" an

It would be cliche to say that this is one of the lowest quality and the least inconsequential verbiage of words put together. Just read the abstract and the conclusion to see that there is nothing but bla-bla catch all phrases with no actu

A reaction to some of your paragraphs from my neck of the woods: 1) See John Mersheimer writing and/or youtube vids on that (Turkey nuke and Cuba crisis) (On Lying by states video -- sober and pragmatic analysis. Internal vs External

That is a good question, and the answer is not simple. A necessary conditions for water vapour in a given air-parcel to condense out is that relative humidity should be 100%, or the less known concept of a dew-point temperature is the same

This was way too long and shallow to be read 2x. There is literally nothing new under the sun there: even in the Akkadian stone (2500 BCE) writings one can read: We have fallen upon evil times and the world has waxed very old and wicked. Po

I cannot judge if xi is looking for fight. China, as any other nation, is facing real challenges and problems (including those you mention). However, I do not see a strong evidence that China has from now on only the loosing 'hand&#x27

TL/DR; How can current ML predict anything outside its learning domain? Am I misunderstanding the fundamentals? In which case, I do not see this headline as ground breaking (apart from real benefits of speed, exploration possibilities,

Why so many promises of our future space-faring capabilities failed (as argued in this short piece)? I would extend the list of related questions... Why optimism associated with real-world problem solvers is replaced with empty-talk activis

Certainly there is a cost in transmitting information, especially in short kind of paragraphs which involve abstracting away the working model of reality. I cannot turn this into unsolicited lecture on the 'iron triangle', activis

Of cause such articles are first, advocating for something, therefore per-definition, skewed and non-objective by very design. By that I mean that 1) it focuses on a goal rather than actual process, 2) there is no trade-off analysis. Withou

This is interesting academic paper, which does not have current let alone foreseeable future overlap with reality of our space capabilities as well as economic ones. As much as all of us space-nerds want to see our childhood visions of huma

A nice piece to discuss this old topic. It appears that there was a better understanding of it then than today by general public. Mainly the fact that the discussion is more important than the result of it. Today, when majority of populace
