While not giving up entirely, I feel like many people, if presented with facts, would be willing to greatly reduce their consumption.

The thing is, when switching from an omnivore diet to a plant-based diet, meat is not replaced by tomatoes and broccolis (or vegetables in general), it is replaced by tofu, beans, lentils, rice, nuts, etc. which are all at the bottom of the

Taking a critical look at one's own meat consumption can be enlightening, because it is something that we often take for granted. Do I eat meat because it is necessary for my health? If not, what are the reasons? How is the meat that I

For sure, but I feel like he still has enough share of the company ("only" 1.3%, but that's a lot of money) that what they are doing is relevant to the discussion.

A bit of a nitpick maybe, but it's been Fortran and not FORTRAN for quite a while (since Fortran 90 in the 90's).

I really enjoy the fact that the seemingly simple equation 2^n = 3^p has so much implication for how me make music.

Clickbait title. The article is about alternative protein sources such as crickets or seaweed. The conclusion is a fairer description of the content: "So whether it comes from a cricket or a lab or off the coast of Indonesia, tomorrow&

Fair enough. I was thinking of operations like getting row i from a n*m matrix, which would be A(i,:) in 1-based compared to A(i-1,:) in 0-based (or A(i,:) with a 0..n-1 index).

It seems only logical that (a) growing plants to eat them is more efficient than (b) bringing an animal into existence, feeding the animal with said plants and then eating the animal. So (b) is more polluting and more cruel than (a). It mig

Sure, if you try with non conformable arrays, gfortran for example would tell you something like this: Different shape for array assignment at (1) on dimension 1 Note that a scalar is conformable to any array, so that A = 2 for examp

I honestly am not too sure why there is so much derision regarding Fortran (ageism?). A lot of people don't seem to realize the importance this language still has in scientific computing.

I think the answer is closer to 10 years, as ln( 3500 / 48 ) / ln( 48 / 31 ) = 9.8 In 4.72 years, they would be at 48 * ( 48 / 31 )^4.72 = 378 millions / day.
