Talking heads giving lectures on current state of climate in universities , taking really critical look at it. Maybe not the most optimistic crowd, though :) > We could put the earth into an ice age for under 1% of global GDP. Discussin

Well, maybe your intuition is right and you are indeed running out of time. According to Oxfams reports, beginning of 2016 62 people owned as much as the bottom 50%, and beginning of 2017 it was only 8 people owning the same. So if you extr

well :) The sun and moon appear the same size in Earth's sky because the sun's diameter is about 400 times greater – but the sun is also about 400 times farther away. So what are the chances of having a satellite that is 400 times

Ok , you read this theories about how moon was initially formed and you think sounds plausible . But then if you think about the math behind full solar eclipse you have to question yourself what are the chances of having it .

And having nested structures achieves the same.

by zaro 10y ago
Maybe it's just me but I find the part about structures a bit silly. So let's get rid of the big fat structs, and replace them with tuples. Nested tuples. How is that any different than a struct, apart from immutability? And it is

I find it odd, that you don't care what happens to the Earth as a whole, given that is the only place you can live as a human :) And the thing is that the prosperity of the human species in the last century has been made largely at the

Well, it is not so much about the forks I think. A lot of the software now days is just a building brick you use to build something bigger. And the problem with the GPL licensed bricks is that you can use them only with GPL bricks. And I a

It is much more profitable to treat cancer than to cure it. So I don't really believe it's about science. And because I can already see the down votes, let me ask you down-voters a question. With what thoughts do you imagine a CE

What people demanding innovation from Apple don't get is that as a corporation Apple cares only about profit. If the profit happens to require innovation then there will be innovation , but besides this it's pointless thing. Usual

To me, after all the Snowden leaks , the story about two Russian spies sounds kind of ridiculous because of the level of hypocrisy :)

Well changing the main focus of human existence from making profit and consumption to something else will help a lot :)
