We've been conducting a geo-engineering experiment by increasing the CO2 content of the atmosphere and, so far, it isn't going well.

You're right. As an experiment to show CO2 causes warming it totally has sucked, because it shows in fact the opposite - over a decade without warming even as CO2 emissions continue to increase.

It's quite obvious at this point temperature changes have very little correlation to CO2 added to the atmosphere. Which was only logical one you realized what a tiny part of the atmosphere CO2 really is... so our percentage increases of it add little in terms of absolute amounts.

You are assuming that a warming climate is more helpful, but you could have a warm dry desert

Wrong. A warmer climate releases more moisture into the atmosphere from the oceans, which winds up on land. You always have a net positive effect on moisture...

This has also been noted in explanations of why snowfall amounts are up in some areas.

Deserts are the result of specific weather patterns not allowing moisture to flow to a region, but it always goes somewhere...

We also have proof of this simple fact, the medieval warm period was a fair amount warmer than we are now, and it was in fact a great time for agriculture.

Lastly, you are again ignoring jungles which are as hot as deserts... you seem to think that a great amount of heat automatically means desert which is very far from the truth.

But the most rise we are predicted to see anyway is about 2-3C.

If the climate were generally cooling, I'd agree with the thought we need to figure out how to stop or slow it.

But a warming climate? That has far more helpful benefits than downsides for life in general and biodiversity across the planet. You have only to look at the jungle compared to that arctic to realize that...

So please do NOT screw up whatever warming process is underway and move us to a cooling phase.

It's only "warming" in the sense of a global average

Which also has not been warming either for the past decade or so. :-)

For which, there are a lot of excuses but not much warming... all that time CO2 has continue to increase so obviously what temperature changes there are, is disconnected from CO2.

They were taking OTA signals and retransmitting them across the internet for profit without paying the broadcaster a dime.

I could do that myself legally (I do so all the time, recording over the air signals and replaying them later on other devices), so why couldn't I pay someone to put an antenna somewhere for me?

The key was they really did have one antenna per customer, so it was exactly that - an antenna rental.

So why do YOU see anything wrong with that?

they were trying to make money off someone else's product without paying for it.

Actually, they were paying the same price for it that all of their customers combined would have paid for it. But the networks wanted more.

Just FYI, the "tab paradigm" for browsers was largely invented by Opera (as an extension of their historical strong support for MDI) - and guess where they had put the tab bar relative to the address?..

Tabs above page-related UI (address bar, reload button etc) makes perfect sense, because those controls pertain only to the current selected page.

Regardless of how rare they are, the book title makes it clear that it's supposed to be about them.

There are definitely people who self-identify as "social justice activists", and SJW is really just a pejorative version of that.

It also has no-license-required open carry, which is actually better than a bunch of southern states. Oh, and concealed carry license doesn't cost $200.

Probably not. But they only publish aggregate stats, meaning that warehouse workers and software engineers are lumped together. The best guess so far is that the former category has significantly more women in it than the latter, which largely accounts for the disproportion in the average wage across the company.

The answer to all your questions is "it is there". For any future questions of the same kind, go to http://www.freshports.org/ and search for the package that you want.

He says he's a Gentoo user. He doesn't need "FreeBSD with some packages preinstalled", he just needs to know that they're there.
