Germany is much cloudier than California and it is also at a significantly higher latitude, where the solar insolation is a lot smaller. Solar panels above about 50°N almost never break even from a carbon budget POV over the lifetime of the

That's a naïve view of intelligence, uninformed by the academic consensuses in philosophy, economics, biology, psychology etc. Additional intelligence, for any agent, is simply additional ability to reason about the world in relation t

We should be thankful that Betteridge's law of headlines applies here because Germans have a historical trend of coming up with internationally unpopular policies when they feel like they're in an economic downturn.

I don't think there's enough data to argue that prosperous societies are the end state of capitalism because we still don't know if most economies can survive the demographic transition that industrialization produces. Maybe

Most discussions of economic limits in the future don't account for thermodynamics or the planetary energy budget and this article is more of the same. On the sociology side, this article doesn't even question the assumption of &q
