Comment Re:Unintended consequences... (Score 2) 96

In USA, Aedes Aegypti is invasive and new, and it won't be missed. In most places in America, it's been here less than 30 years. Less than 5 years, where I live. I am confident that the ecology of 2026 is plenty compatible with the ecology of 2021.

If some obscure bird species that just moved in 5 years ago can't settle for eating the slower, bigger, less stealthy classical mosquito strains we'll have left, then it can fly back down to Central America where it recently came from.

Comment States should use settlements to teach ad-blocking (Score 1) 71

Each state that gets money in a judgement or settlement, should use that money to make sure their public education system teaches kids how to block ads.

By 2030, I don't think anyone should be able to graduate high school in America, unless they've learned how to be ad-free (on screens under their control; obviously they won't gain superpowers to blank out billboards or the sides of buses).

Dude, the more I see what you write, the more I see that you are a know-nothing know-it-all. Ukrainian grain is generally exported to the middle east and Africa. Europe harvests more than enough grain. France alone can easily fulfill all European needs in this regard and France is nowhere near the sole cereal crop producer in Europe. For example, the EU supplies 25% of the world wheat exports - and that is excluding the domestic market. There are far more important reasons for Ukraine staying independent than this.

That was equally true for previous generations, and all those generations had exceptions -- kids that were excited about it, despite the other kids not being interested. (I figure the majority of Slashdot may have been such exceptions.)

Do we have reason to suspect the current generation is a unique special case, the one generation where somehow all of them make an effort to never learn about computers?

I bet some of them are like some of us, a 2026 minority that we would have recognized 40 years ago.
