Granting that the two effects counteract each other, it is surprising that the crossover point would happen within the range of variation of actual clouds on Earth. My uninformed guess would have been that nearly all clouds' effects ar

It's the beginning of wisdom when you do it on your own, in your own time, and at whatever length it asks of you. But another aspect of wisdom is to think intelligently about the problem at hand by choice . To refuse to do so, or not

Mmm, it's a dead-end without a philosophical framework powerful enough to contain it. It's like trying to decide how to build a system/business while also trying to work out what to build/what problem you're solving

I don't think it's so unpopular to be suspicious of a blanket law against child labor, but the point about compulsion is critical. Our progressive laws are a compromise that is massively good in the net-that's the nature of t
