There's no need to talk about assumptions. The WHO suppressed evidence of the disease at the behest of PRC. The WHO fortunately finds itself in the convenient position where "Trump's wrong" makes a right. But an impartia

Can't speak to that particular environment, but the explosion of lyme disease in Northeastern US over the past few decades or so. Lyme disease is passed by deer ticks which largely live off of mice, which have had decades of under-pred

Pair (2) with a lack of immigration, which is what bails out the US from this problem (though it wouldn't be as extreme in any case). Wikipedia says China let in 1800 people in to US' 1.2 million in 2016. This lack of immigration

Spain is well lined up on the 0 meridian, but is on continental time. It should surprise no one that odd times result. China is on a single time zone, IIRC. Imagine if SF shifted clocks forward 3 hours just because that's what Washingt

Mostly corrosion. The half lives involved, combined with the great expense of safely adjusting these things after they're put to rest, means that you would really like something really dry and remote. Fear of contaminating ground water

Worth mentioning that Chernobyl is included in this data. If someone has a worse long-tail risk in mind, it would be interesting to hear. The risk from contamination is certainly below coal, which generates far greater quantities of RAM, wi

Maybe I've misunderstood the issue, but I thought the new pipelines were for expanding capacity and service areas. It's also possible I wasn't very clear. When I rail against the new, it's not against replacement (e.g. c

The maddening thing about these pipelines is that fixed infrastructure should have such high payoff for moving petroleum compared to roads or, when possible, trains. As long as politicians show such an unwavering commitment to neglecting ol

For you to insist this is fearmongering is disingenuous and you should feel ashamed. When disagreeing, please reply to the argument instead of calling names. "That is idiotic; 1 + 1 is 2, not 3" can be shortened to "1 + 1 i

The instinct to arrest political enemies is one of the really bad telltales of authoritarianism, so people generally steer well clear. Unless you think that an example needs to be set so Biden and future presidents know not to act similarly

AMD is in Surface laptop 3, and in Thinkpad T14 (supposedly, though the ship times are reputedly several months.) The T14 is premium in a certain class (high value placed on swapping parts.) I suspect there are a few more.
