Comment Re:"Harmful" response? (Score 1) 76

You missed the rest of my sentence where I said ChatGPT was used as a tool. I'll admit that AI could be a catalyst in speeding up suicide - to the point where if it hadn't been there the persons mind MIGHT have changed before they figured out how to suicide - but it's pretty retarded to think it's a cause of suicide.

Your crime against semantics has been noted. OP didn't nitpick vocabulary at all. I think the real harm is that we've been taught that it's OK to be offended by words. Also, no one is committing suicide because of ChatGPT - he used that as a tool. If it wasn't there he would have found a way regardless.

Comment Re:Not fit to be called a scientist. (Score 1) 62

Whether or not something is bad for the environment has nothing to do with whether or not it is science. Also, the environment/climate will do just fine with heaps of CO2 and rising sea levels. Whether particular species (such has humans) do okay, is a different story. CO2 does not cause climate 'breakdown', it encourages climate change. I'm not sure what it would mean for the climate to 'break down'.

The question that matters here is what is worse for the environment (in terms of human-preferred environment) between the polystyrene and the (likely tiny amounts) of CO2? Turning something bad into something less bad is still a win.

I mostly agree with what you said, but

Little nitpick - houses are held together with nails because they are good enough and are cheaper than screws (slightly in manufacturing costs, and hugely in time spent during construction). Screws would be a lot better, and also make dismantling sections a bit easier.

What about the people who look like they are from China, can speak one or more Chinese languages, but were born in the USA/Australia etc. and call themselves Chinese? What about the people who've been living in Malaysia for five or more generations, and also speak and call themselves Chinese? They don't have Chinese nationality for sure. So what do you call that? I would certainly call it race or ethnicity.
