Yeah I'm not a fan of the law either. Google's response was also irritating: plastering ads for their video (against the new law) on every search made from Australia.

40 pages! That's intriguingly long. There's also a nice audio version.

It's really good for heating/cooling buildings. Outside of that it's less clear. It's still extremely underused for heating/cooling. I think there isn't much incentive for people to incorporate it at the moment

That's cool, but nothing can "eat" CO2. Eating implies a gain of energy, but converting CO2 to whatever is going to be a loss of energy. Plants use CO2 to get carbon and store energy, but converting that CO2 still costs energ

Exactly what I thought. I don't really care that digital ocean had "good intentions". The scheme is obviously abuseable and seems to have indeed wasted the time of a number of actual developers.

This is certainly my view as a physicist, although I'm not the greatest physicist by any measure. QM can give us a perfectly clear picture of "collapse", although it's not a trivial matter and it's hard to explain t

It looks cool and makes me feel like a hacker. I mean, just look at it. It looks fucking cool. You can't deny it.

Not true at all. There are issues with making vaccines for some viruses that are well-understood and seemingly quite intractable. And what about HIV? We've spent far more resources trying to find a cure for that, and although some good

That's all well and good, but you can't realistically expect a vaccine to be created. It MIGHT be created, or it might not. There are many viruses for which we've tried and failed to produce effective vaccines.

Guns aren't "killing for self defense". They're killing machines which lie around for a long time, and may have many effects one of which is self defense.

I think git is pretty good. However there are a lot of random/bad blog posts giving supposedly expert advice about how to use it.

Control of games, especially keyboard control, has long been an interest of mine... Many games go to great length to help the player control the game properly/optimally, yet many games fall short and can be improved by simple AutoHotke

I used to do more internal monologuing. But if you sit quietly and observe your thoughts, you may notice that whenever you "speak" a thought to yourself, that thought was already in your mind beforehand. The speaking adds nothing

Neat site, but it would be good to have some information on who created it, who did this research, and who (if anyone) funded it.

Yeah, git with binary files is not fun. Have you tried git annex?

Who can provide holistic advice then? Maybe a management consultant, or a frequent reddit user? Plenty of scientists know about things outside their laser-narrow domain.

We know exactly how to fix it: stop destroying their habitats and messing with the climate. Any other "fix" is going to be feelgood techno-fetishism.

Sounds interesting. I also have some minor but unsettling symptoms which I think could be related to such things. Would you mind sharing what kind of symptoms you experience?

Trees aren't bad, but they're a solution like how a bandage is a solution to a systematic bacterial infection...
