But lower speeds do make crashes a lot less deadly. Probably also less probable, as people have more time to react

Yet they have also gotten involved in a very destructive war that destroyed their fossil fuel markets, made them a pariah and wasted their Soviet heritage military arsenal. Would not count it as development.

Nope, Nokia was killed via suicide-by-microsoft-exec. They took in a MS aligned CEO and promptly proceeded to destroy their own chance of competing (using Maemo/meego or android for their phones) by using MS operating system. I guess o

To me this brings to mind Eliezer's Inadequate Equilibria( https://intelligence.org/equilibriabook/ ), which goes on explaining how these non-optimal, but stable situations arise all around us in societies. Especia

It is still true, most common refrigerants still have quite high GWP [1]. Not as bad as in the 70's, but the transition to neutral gasses is not ready yet. And then there is also all the old installed systems still running. 1. https:&

But unit size does have other considerations outside the project size. For example provisioning capacity for maintenance downtime. Too big units make it quite hard to get enough capacity for the grid to stay up while maintaining hard. For e

Sadly there seems to be reserves[1] for quite a long time. The real question is how much of the reserves are profitable to exploit. 1. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_natural_g...

It decarbonized its electricity production by building a lot of nuclear (eg. left fossil fuels in the dust). Of course only partly, as the nuclear fleet still depends on fossil fuels, but still a great achievement.

Also, not enough standardization of measurements to make interchangeability to work. And another point is that shipping used to be too costly over anything but water --> whole production chain had to be quite localized.

Because we don't count the energy taken to produce the things for these developed nations in other "less developed" countries.

But they are not going to be impacted less if they burn less (on the margin). Most of the impact is already locked in in short term.

You can radiate it away, but it would be really hard compared to just dumping it to atmosphere / water bodies. Especially as computers need quite low temperatures. Here is some more analysis on the problem of radiating heat away in spa

I agree, these predictions are usually just statistical inferences without any believable model. Models expect everything continuing like it is and not having any discontinuities. I personally predict that we will fuck things up and end up

I think we do have the capability if wanted, it just does not make economical sense. Basically we'd need to filter the gases injected to the process to guard against contaminants, which would cost a lot. So it's just cheaper to re

That is a good question! Training datasets should be pretty trivial for this, all open source software that is buildable on the internet could provide training sets (source code & compiled code). But I guess it would have to be trained
