The last point is all that counts. Nobody cares about Corona infections if they don’t fill up hospitals or cause Long COVID.

The next generation of bullshit military spending? A trillion for Afghanistan and F-35 each . Jeez, what could we have built with $2 trillion in investments? What cool companies, technologies or infrastructure could have sprung from this?

Prime example of why military spending needs to be cut in half at least to focus on what's important. Not to weaken the military but to stop bullshit like this in its track.

If it's any consolation, I did the same. Skipped on the academic career partly because I hate the pretentiousness of academia with a passion (while loving science), partly for a desire to get hands-on with industry and "the real w

Of course. Science is just a chase for grant money. Lots of entertainment money to be earned and documentaries can be made about "dark energy". Knowledge discovery is secondary or tertiary to modern science. The field is full of g

That’s not a bid for privacy, it’s a bid for spite. Picking a Chinese phone based on financial circumstances, however, is understandable IMO.

The important thing is that we learn all that we possibly can from the ancient structures. Then, I would agree with restoring and maximally using these structures for modern purposes. If ancient Egypt persisted, the pyramids would have chan

Nuclear should have been built and improved 30 years ago. By the time new nuclear plants bring about their benefits, we have passed the 2,5 degrees celsius warming limit.

Nuclear fission is not the optimal solution to the energy Problem anymore. 30-40 years ago, it would have been. Time of construction and cost of these plants far outweigh its benefits when compared to easier and cheaper alternatives in the

Yep, I see Belugas flying over Hamburg nearly every week, as they deliver or take away parts from the assembly in Finkenwerder. It's great to see those planes gliding across the Elbe river, always looks amazing.

Yes, Sweden deserves quite some credit. It doesn't have a clear track record on human rights though, as it is trying to suggest on the geopolitical platform. The conflict is imo not over, it is still going on. If it wasn't then Sw

That tells you a lot about what can happen with slow adaptation / getting used to it as opposed to catastrophic fast change of the environment. It's kinda true for climate change as well - just over much longer stretches of time.
