I really wish people would stop thinking that there's this one thing that will fix climate. There isn't. It'll take lots of things. Carbon pricing is a good one if done right, but it's not a silver bullet. There are no

"We're not in principle against stopping climate change, we're just against every specific measure proposed to counter climate change." Sorry, I'm really tired of hearing these arguments.

Ultimately what this shows is that two factor authentication with either TOTP (aka Google Authenticator) or SMS is not ideal. It makes phishing harder for the attacker, but it does not prevent it. Unfortunately he fails to mention that ther

I feel they have a big confounder in their study that I wonder may spoil their results. They only used two examples of scientific stories, and one of them is an issue around the health effects of GMOs. Here's the thing: I think you

This is an important point. Not for the "we'll build a gas station on mars"-scenario, but for the "we'll propose this as a climate solution". Every way of replacing natural gas with some other source of methane

We'd probably have to define what "not receive subsidies" means. I'm pretty sure they don't pay for the damages caused by the methane and N2O emissions caused by the meat production. "We don't have to care

Isn't it just very different from SSLLabs? Like SSLLabs is testing for TLS configuration and vulnerabilities, this is testing for HTTP security headers. There's some overlap (HSTS), but for the most part these are just two differe

The hydrogen strategy says very little about cars. The main focus is industry. I think it doesn't outright exclude hydrogen cars (i.e. you could probably still build an electrolyseur with subsidies by the gov and ship the H2 to cars),
