I think that might be an over simplification of the impact of a weakened magnetosphere. The magnetosphere protects the lower levels of the atmosphere from charged particles from the sun and further sources. This isn't just solar flare

I think we fundamentally disagree here. There might be some 20:20 hindsight way to completely avoid the opioid crisis (especially with the behavior of Purdue Pharma), but from my perspective if Fentanyl (or other potent synthetic opioid) r

What is this guild license, and how does it differ from the current system of having private companies own software licenses, tech patents, and trade secrets? It sounds to me like you're just describing a tech company.

I think this highlights the importance of addressing the _why_ even more. Most people are terrified of accidental fentanyl exposure. Some people seek it out. Why is that?

$64million new investments in EVs were announced on Friday along with the V8 investment. This is in line with GM's stated goal of being all electric by 2035, and their lineup of EVs planned to be sold in 2023 is actually fantastic. Th

This is the right move for GM. * These 'generations' last about 10 years. The are sold in a wide variety of products: Chevy, GMC, Cadillac, sports cars, trucks, and SUVs. * Full transition to electric is at least 10 years away.

As a living organism I am most interested in increasing the resources and habitat size for my species and decedents. The amount of resources on Earth (or that we could bring to Earth) is a tiny fraction compared to what's available.
