Last time an Iranian female player competed she had to flee to the UK afterwards for not wearing a headscarf. Not a problem that male players have.

I suggest you take your own advice, as you demonstrate why reasoning based on false premises and partial knowledge leads to messy outcomes.

Yep. Even worse, replanted forests are usually cut down a few years later, before they become actual nature. So they have you pay for planting their lumber.

For the trip to the EU that's not true. She was on a youtuber sailing caramaran that was in the area and offered to take her and her dad to the EU. I used to follow that channel.

So unless you have info on other boat trips, I'm going to assume this is more Koch brothers propaganda.

The first signs all was not well with CO2 could be seen in the 80's. The increasing levels were a question on a math test I took in that period. It interested me so I started reading about it. In the 90's books were coming out about the issue, with solutions. Solutions that were not as expensive then, because it was 30 years earlier and there was more time to spread out investment, change infrastructure etc.

And ofcourse capitalism being what it is, nothing was done. Oh, sorry, the conservative government axed our fledgling wind turbine industry as requested by Shell. So they did something.

So yeah, it could have been much cheaper. But if nobody does something until its too late, shit gets expensive. A bit like the medical issues in the USA. Nobody pays for prevention, but if you are dying they will treat the shit out of you, at a cost that is 4-5 orders of magnitude higher.

Dude, Amsterdam just built an underground right through the historic center. So did London recently. Its not that hard.

One of the features of Stalinism was, notably, a lack of choice or any agency in determining one's own fate, on pain of death.

Do you have *any* clue about history?

Conspiracy theorists aren't known for their intellectual prowess, although they seem to think otherwise.

Try Trump :)

Actually, the left in Europe is opposed to the carbon tax because the working class will bear the brunt of it. But if its the only option besides dying, they'll try to mitigate the worst of it through trade union action.

Of course it does matter what the USA does. First, it is still the biggest polluter per capita on the planet. Second, if they have actual standards, those will be forced upon China and India as well, with the support of the EU, to keep a level playing field.
Third, have you actually looked at the absolutely massive investment in solar, wind and nuclear power in China?

Don't keep repeating the talking points of the Koch brothers, it looks silly.

Of course it's about money: it's been about the cost shoved off to future generations and other people. And now, that hidden cost is on the bill and its past due.

Remember when the US threatened a trade war with the EU over carbon tax on planes a decade ago? It would certainly have helped to reduce the bill.

But go ahead, keep repeating the talking points of the Koch brothers, ExxonMobil, and Shell. I'm sure with those altruistic people, it's not about the money.

I recently read an article about someone using Intuitionist mathematics (no real numbers) to prove that you cannot compute everything from a know starting position, hence time is irreversible.

Can't find the article right now but I think it has some bearing on your statement.

The python libraries used are very likely the specific physics libraries and floating point libraries, and they are mostly written in C and compiled to machine code. Good luck improving the runtime of that code in another language.

Agreed. They don't want a real solution, which would be to stop their engagement algorithms.
