No libertarians believe that tort law protects people from negative externalities. Don't waste your energy going after weak arguments that your opponent isn't making.
While I was VP for Public Affairs at E'Prime Aerospace, we evaluated various sites for establishing a space port to launch our MX-derived rockets. It turned out that the presence of a military air strip at Ascension Island allowed a military jet transport large enough to deliver entire launch vehicles. Of course, the MX system was solid fueled so we didn't have to transport cryogenics long distances, but it would be feasible to set up a LOX facility on the island. There is a particular coastal cliff that is ideal for a launch pad.
A 15 year plan exists in rough outline. . Yes, it is extreme but then if the climate crisis worsens to the degree predicted by some, and action is delayed as it appears it will be, there will be very little time to geoengineer remediation.
Meh. Any "Nazi Nazi Nazi" troll that doesn't end with "Jews did 9/11. lol" doesn't even qualify for The Troll Special Olympics.
By investing Sun Corporation in making Java the standard programming language of computer science courses in India at the same time that the H-1b program expanded to take over the Fortune 500, Vinod Khosla managed to set the software industry back more than a decade.

Its self-indulgent to design an upward incompatible programming language (and, no, Perl 6 is hardly alone in this as others have pointed out about Python3, etc.) without looking for your keys some distance from the lamp post.
They don't say it has _all_ the properties of defect-free graphene -- so, what properties are mismatched? Just the important ones?
Look up Carbocrete's properties. While its true it does require some sand, in addition to the CaCO3 and carbon fiber, it requires much less sand than ordinary concrete and no rocks. Moreover, sand is ubiquitous on the ocean floor. A refinement of the calculation would substitute sand dredging for some of the CaCO3 energy use as well as including the energy for the carbon fiber.
The primary cost of building a tropical doldrum Atmospheric Vortex Engine is a huge hollow structure called the "arena" that contains the low pressure created by the vortex. The low pressure is relieved through compact, high speed turbines at the base of the arena. Since the turbines are compact they don't have to be costly and since they are high speed they don't have to be numerous.
What good is a tropical doldrum Atmospheric Vortex Engine?
It can generate its own building material from the ocean and atmosphere -- so if you can print them rapidly you can have rapid doubling time exponential growth in clean baseload electric production that within a decade dwarfs all energy use by civilization.
Oh, and it also provides tropical atoll seasteads sufficient to feed and house the total population of the world.
Speaking as a die-hard Perl programmer, isn't node.js the obvious answer for those who want "a web language"?
So, let me see if I have this right:
If you don't let more Hispanics in to vote, the Hispanics already here will vote against you.
Why, exactly, should the US increase the racist vote?
