The roles of client and server being force-swapped is another perhaps unfortunate development.

Green storage at scale does not exist yet because the equipment to do it has not been built yet. The equipment has not been built yet because the factories to build it are still under construction, and because money is still overwhelmingly

Your worry appears to be that the trillions of tons of fossil fuels still being mined under continued massive government subsidy will prove insufficient to fuel construction of the renewable-energy generation equipment we need. Nobody else

Monetary cost, as already noted, reveals an exact upper bound on the amount of energy needed to build and deliver the goods: people doing those get no discount on their power bill. The price also includes labor, administrative and marketing

People were sailing out of sight of land at least 40,000 years ago around southeast Asia, and possibly even up along the Aleutians and down the West coast of the Americas. What we are certain about is that they reached Australia. There wa

Someone should be very embarrassed about how they have handled this whole process. Surely code to operate condition variables correctly is in the public domain, that does not involve mitigations or stolen signals.

That would be plausible except I miss much of the dialog in theaters, too. I am not a 20-something, but I always turn on subtitles. I never could make out most of song lyrics, either, with some exceptions. Most usually, only the chorus.

Panels are so cheap now that they pay even if you waste most of what they could have produced. A smallish battery that captures only some of the excess, and delivers it when you need it, suffices. Battery cost is still falling fast as new c

It is not a crime if it is not against the law. In India, grossly exploiting lower-caste people used to be explicitly required by law, and today is often condoned, and rarely forbidden. What is not in violation of law can be much worse than

The Sicilian mafia have traditionally claimed descent from local nobility displaced by invaders. That does not change the story much, because "nobility" is another word for those self-same stationary bandits. Invading bandits may

Obviously it has all melted off before. Many, many times. That does not mean anything is wrong with the current ice cores. It only means they go back only as far as they go, and there may be gaps where partial melting happened before accu

Factories to make storage media are under construction today, as we speak. Do you imagine they will not be operated? Or, that what they build has not already been shown to work before they got investment to build? We don't have much st

Please do not post shallow, dismissive, uninformed remarks. When you have nothing to offer, as here, you need not post at all.

It is hearsay. The IPCC reports predicted a range of possible outcomes, depending on what we did. We did the things that implied the results they predicted and we got.

Maybe read more carefully. When renewable energy is abundant, we will find it cheaper to synthesize the hydrocarbons we need than to pump them out of the ground, transport, refine, and transport them again. In the meantime, the overwhelming

Building fission instead of spending those dollars building solar and wind brings climate catastrophe nearer.

You contradict yourself. The high prices are temporary because there is still demand. As demand falls off, price falls, and wells too expensive to operate are abandoned. The remaining wells will produce enough. CA is not banning sale of I

You very, very evidently did not read what you replied to. That appears to be a pattern. You could learn just by paying attention to what people took time out to explain to you. Go ahead, I can wait.

Those people didn't have to be doctors, or nurses or med techs. They all need to make a living, but not necessarily by probing you . A good many of them entered medicine because it seemed like something they could do to help people. E

At Chernobyl, the reactor staff's badges registered everyone receiving the same dose of 100 rems. (Made-up number.) The maximum possible reading of the badges was 100 rems. What are the odds that they actually got only 100 rems? Zero
