Advocating that society should be engineered towards resilience is not a new thing, it's what keeps us safe from earthquakes, for example.
You have no guarantee that we can stop global warming. I happen to think we will not. Too many politics, laziness and complacency.
It is not an unreasonable demand, what we try to build better insulated houses, further away from the sea. Just in case.
People go see the Red Square on purpose. It's called tourism.
We should spend more time getting ready for the fact that, even though we created global warming, Earth has warmed and cooled of its own volition in the past and is not contractually obliged to hold a comfortable temperature range or a certain sea level. Species adapt or die. Stop building in floodplains maybe?
Now that we know the ice caps can melt and raise sea levels to a certain height, maybe we should go live in a high place.
What are you going to do if the sun suddenly warms up in an unexpected way, are you going to try cooling down the sun?
Shouldn't we at least have a plan B in case we can't immediately fix this?
Pardon my French.
What unit are you using? 1.6 grams per kilo for a largish 100 kg man is 160 grams which is less than a steak. Slightly over 1/3 lb for you americans.
In my country court proceedings are secret, as their disclosure can harm ongoing investigations, or simply violate someone's constitutional right to privacy.
Accusations are not convictions. And even if you were convicted of something that's no one else's business. You pay your debt to society, you have the right to a clean slate. Never hear of the Right to be Forgotten laws?
If the US does not protect its I'm sure that one day it will get finally get rid of the media circus bullshit and let people have their dignity.
You're the record holders for bible-thumping, how about "Judge not lest ye be judged" etc.
What happened? Necromancy? I haven't heard of it in like 20 years.
They're throwing shit at us because they're bored and their AI is so inbred after several generations of consuming its ancestors' slop that it hallucinates frequently and so the asteroids miss Earth.
I think you just described humans. WE are the danger to this world, and provide no value to it
No one eats viruses but quite a lot of species depend on mosquitoes to survive, or eat the mosquito-eaters to survive.
You don't have to kill any mosquitoes, just replace them with a genetically modified version that is resistant to parasites?
Quite a lot of animals feed on insects, and then some carnivores might feed on them.
If you overfish sardines, anything bigger than a sardine may also suffer a population decline, as it is a staple food for lots of yummy fish and also marine mammals..
I keep hearing about miracle breakthroughs whenever researchers need money but they never go into production.
Nobody knows what Napster is, try buying Crunchyroll and turn it into a 3D experience.
Why would I need a cryptographic ledger thingamabob, whatever the hell that is, in order to buy and own an image? It's as if people didn't buy and sell images all the time, for instance in stock photos websites. Not that I am terribly fussed over a wallpaper image being used by someone else, legally or otherwise.
When will reality catch up with the cryptobros?
