Interesting, I’ll look into this.

Europe is a lot warmer than it should be because of the gulf stream that brings warm water from the equator. If you look at the same latitute in north america/Asia the climate will be a lot cooler there.

South america on the other hand is cooler than it should be simply by latitude because of the humbold current and the Antarctic ocean.

So you are comparing the warmest point with the coldest one at the same latitude (mirrored on the southern hemisphere)

They fear the lag between when the emissions escape from power plant chimneys and when new trees are able to absorb carbon will create a “carbon debt” which could accelerate the climate crisis in the near term

Exactly. Planting trees is the only thing that is positive in this equation.

Burning wood = more CO2

Cuting down trees = less carbon capture = more CO2 in the future

The only reduction happens at the place trees are planted and if that is in another country then you are not reducing your country’s carbon footprint. And if the exporting country isnt planting trees than you might as well burn oil in regards to CO2 emissions.

I feel like inheritance is more something that keeps the rich rich and not something that makes the poor not poor. In a sense, other people inheriting things is (a part of) what keeps poor families poor.

Perfect, let’s also bind the certificate to a user session that is derived from a user fingerprint. That way the CA can track users across all sites

I assume they take digital maps when possible. Most countries will have digital maps of their territories, be it for military use or research or other. And many companies do to. Digital car navigation existed before google maps and logistics companies for sure had digital maps as well.

For some parts I am pretty sure they just scan paper maps and convert it by hand.

Of course all of that is some sort of “maping”. My previous comment was slightly clickbaity. But the process is still, Maps first, satellite later and not the other way round.

Google doesn’t map things. They take existing maps and then overlay the satellite images. Most likely Indonesia has more detailed Maos of the area than the Papuan side

That’s pretty hard to do. Just consider the executioners: everyone that wants that job is an asshole as they want to kill other people and would have to be killed themselves. And if you make somebody be the executioner that doesn’t want to do it (a not asshole), then the people forcing them to do it are assholes as they are forcing somebody to be an executioner against their will!

I dont give a shit about “perfect”. Just give me okay. Actually meat isnt perfect it is just one point in the huge realm of possible combinations of flavour, consistency juiciness, etc. But because its the thing we know, we designate it as the target, the “perfect” food that all meat replacements and artificial meat is measured against.

Just hash the binary and include it with the build. When somebody else compiles they can check the hash and just recompile until it is the same. Deterministic outcome in presumambly finite time. Untill the weights of the model change then all bets are off.

Ask yourself the question why people “become” tall, small, blonde, blue eyed, have a certain ethnicity, …

They dont become! They are! (I am mostly gonna use gay as an example but the same applies to all lgbtq+ people in the same way)

The reason it seems like people “become” gay is because sexuality is something that develops during puberty. The same way tall people don’t get born tall, but grow to be tall. However they never choose to or worked towards being tall.

If you ever heard something like “XYZ is turning the kids gay!”, its a lie. Differently to being tall, sexuality is something internal, something you feel. And many people are being told that what they feel is wrong. So they believe it is wrong and surpress what they feel. This leads to misserabke lives, depression and often violent/abusive relationships because they are internaky unhappy. If you tell them it is okay to feel what they feel, they are more likely to accept who they are.

So telling people that it is okay to be lgbtq+ leads to more people being openly lgbtq+. They always were. They didn’t “turn gay”. They just didn’t lie to themselves and surpress it.

Pretty chill and cool I imagine

So how do you use your phone? Every time you type something you use a keyboard app. It might just be the one that was shipped with android (Samsung keyboard, gboard, etc)

You might have federation issues (or blocked the right/wrong people/communities/instances).

There are loads of cats…

So do i. Russia escalated by invading. Russia escalated by killing civilians, targeting civilian infrastructure, kidnaping children, attacking nuclear power plants, attacking dams, attacking hospitals, (and many more times). And by using mines.

That doesn’t change the fact that an escalation of the weapons used by ukraine is an escalation. That’s what that word means! Russia escalated first, and many times after. They are the bad guys.

Ukraine using mines is an escalation. Arguing against that point simply means you refuse to understand the word “escalation”.

Yes.

“Both sides use warcrime weapons” is an escalation from “only one side uses warcrime weapons”.

Could also be a hyper-v layer around Windows “host”

An open pit at an elevation of 1.5km still means the bottom of the pit could be 1km higher than the place the ore is processed at

Depends on the scale of “going down”. Many mines are in the mountains and the material has to be brought down to lower elevations. The mine entry may be lower than the nearest pass but still a lot higher than the destination of the ore.

Yeah I was about to say. Aren’t children from families that suffered famines much more likely to have (and have children that have) digestive problems and food related deficensies?
