Your paraphrasing of the source you reference is slightly incomplete/misleading, as the claim pertains to non-biodegradeable bioplastics only. Keep in mind that still significant portions of (fossil based) plastic waste are incinerat

Wow, excellent execution. I listen to a lot of acid and am amazed how good this sounds. Great way to discover interesting patterns for further music making as well I can imagine; how would that work with copyright though?

Thanks for sharing your perspective. As somebody living in the west, I wholeheartedly agree. We've known since the 80s our fossil economy is slow-cooking the planet, yet we protest when other countries try to climb out of poverty using

No need for another solvent; simply making a tea with hot water does the trick. Not boiling hot though, as it'll degrade the active components to some extent. Aim for 70 degrC before adding the ground material.

Creative ideas and all, but we're already struggling to build, transport and store enough solar energy down here on earth. I'm guessing that in the timeframe this needs to deliver the cc mitigating benefits, this might be less fea

Keep in mind that hydropower is extremely disruptive to the water ecosystem up and downstream of the facility, destroying habitats and biodiversity. Definitely not the type of side effects you'd consider OK if it's your mission to

The difference between Photoshop and generative models is not in what it can technically achieve, but the cost of achieving the desired result. Fake news photo or text generation is possible by humans, but scales poorly compared (more human

I did the same. Mixed reactions, some shocked, some shrug and move on. And my friends are academically educated and relatively conscious of this issue I believe. Probably not the most representative sample...

It's difficult to gauge whether or not there's a sarcastic undertone in your reply. Regardless of that being there, I'd say your active and quite intense engagement on this (arguably very predictable) matter isn't very f

Well, when it comes to studying breathing techniques and their effect over time you can quite easily do a large scale randomized controlled trial and survey participants on perceived increase in well-being, right?

In last few months I've travelled to the US a few times. In all 3 hotels I've stayed in, I've had to switch rooms (in one hotel even 3 times in the course of a week) due to low frequency noise of ACs of neighbouring rooms and

From now on you'll have to pay 10eur a month to access a small selection of old papers (i.e. not today's) and some magazines. Too much for too little, I feel.

Although Sowell writes very convincingly and brings logical arguments at first sight, most of his statements on the free market are based on intuition rather than data. He consistently uses a handful of examples (minimum wage, housing marke
