The mask mandates didn’t age so well. It’s one thing to implore others based on the best understanding at the time. It’s another to use authority to force then and be dead wrong about it. I’m glad the mandates are retreating.

We’ve been vilifying oil companies with the moral high ground for 50 years. Rather than calling them evil, it’s time to recognize how important and valuable fossil fuels are, and promote good stewardship (including promoting alternatives an

If Russia’s relationship with the free market world tanks they’re probably just going to nationalize the important companies. Also if Russia fails as a state, what would happen to the outer provinces?

I’d take an alternate approach and suggest that tech’s cult of transferring tons of user data and draining battery life/bandwidth in the process should taper off. Lower energy consumption would be better for battery capacity requiremen

Did you know that there’s over $8 billion of funding for building out regional clean hydrogen hubs? Also, the vast majority of hydrogen will likely come from fossil fuel production. It looks like the reason this is being done is to locali

Gender role != gender Author explicitly states ‘third’, suggesting there’s male, female, and wakashu, which is not the case. It’s male and female, with wakashu as a subset of male. I’m convinced the author is just trying to get attention an

I found this read pretty disappointing, mainly because the author fails to define hedonism. Instead, he uses it as a crutch and catch all for pleasure and calls it bad. A fair assumption is that he defines hedonism as heavy indulgence in s

Thank you! So a bar/bat mitzvah is a title or a state of being, and not a party/ritual?

That’s not really a gender role being defined in the paper, it’s a role within the male gender. I’d call it a phase, which was formally denoted in society. I would liken the title to males before their bar mitzvah being considered a third

I talked to the guys at GHGSat and led an investment effort into them. The sources of methane release are pretty varied, for example damming rivers can be a line source, as it increases the water level upstream from the dam, submerging tree

I wonder what portion of the reading population recognizes that all roads for ‘clean firm’ power lead to nuclear. Hydrogen production is largely a hydrocarbon byproduct (made from gas or biomass, which is burning organic matter). Geothermal

It’d take a ton of energy but I suppose it’s theoretically possible. The article basically says that moon rock/dust are oxides which have oxygen to extract—we can easily figure out the Gibbs free energy required to break apart silicate

Interestingly enough, Zhang was a close follower of the previous CCP leader. CCP leaders usually switch every 8 years between north and south, but the last time it was supposed to switch, it didn’t. I don’t know why.

Unfortunately it’s a politically sensitive topic, people will call it fat shaming, even though it’s really just good health and quality of life practice. Funnily enough, I got an ad for Grubhub while browsing the site.
