I don't have a car so tend to take public transport or walk. But that aside, I recall reading that heavy industry releases a great deal more CO2 than all cars on the roads and that cars are a bit of a red-herring. No source though so I could be wrong.

Shipping, yes. That is a great polluter - good shout - though it primarily applies to food right? It's tricky to buy everything locally-produced e.g the mac I'm typing on. Shipping exists in part because raw materials are spread throughout the globe.

SEO-based "reputation" is just a misnomer; asking for actual people being rated opens the door to easy silencing of critics.

The problem is not the media, but our consumer attitude to news: Only a few track down the source of a news and read the actual ticker message or scientific paper. Even fewer understand the background of a media outlet, its tone/agenda and business relations.

In your Utopos the "truths and facts" would not be your own, it would be those of whoever controls the reputation database. You can watch a system like this unfold in China[1] - and because it is China, we all agree without a second thought that this is a tool for oppression...

Recently tried a HoloLens, after reading some articles and seen the marketing videos I thought it was going to be as immersive as Vive or Rift.

But that tiny window ruined it completely for me. It just isn't immersive at all. Sure it is functional and cool, but I don't honestly think that it's going to be all that useful until the field of view is much larger. Another thing that annoyed me was that I couldn't get close to the holograms. You had to stand at least 1-2 meters away. Maybe it was incorrect settings or something, but kind of disappointing when MS had led me to believe it would be as immersive as VR.
Despite what a developer is mostly valued for (delivery), his professionalist on picking the best tools for the job (obviously to his knowledge) should also be expected, so that his client has the best outcome from his work: Deliverable suitable for the use case, performant, scalable if required, maintainable, etc

All great suggestions. Something that seems like it could be a side project would be to "Make it easier to find locations for wind mills." I suspect at present the primary limiting factors are locating areas of land that are

(1) windy
(2) accessible
(3) cheap to develop?

What has this to do with security through obscurity??

WP security is like Whac-A-Mole, you patch one serious issue and two more pop up. It has been like this for years which shows that the developers don't have the correct mindset to write internet facing code.

Right now you're spoiled with cheap and fast, which will change eventually; I'd recommend planning for this.

Do you really? Clearly not to the tune of an additional $250 for daily private car service or additional commute time on the buses.
Na, all those abstract jit libraries suck. They are too abstract and thereby failed to support the needed architectures.

Practically usable are only LLVM and dynasm.

Now the orm guys did something special I appreciate a lot. Basically they re-invented parrot, with a proper, fast object system with compile-time class extensions in C++, plus still supporting run-time inheritance via vtables.
And on top of their existing stable jit engine for java, they started targeting ruby and python (unofficially).

Much better than parrot (which I'm maintaining on life-support), and probably also better than rpython. We will see how this will turn out, as they already have truffle, which don't like that much. orm looks much better to me.

Passengers in a pool ride all pay rate x.

It's not a great system, tipping the way it's done in cabs, restaurants, and "door-opening" (I only see those guys when I'm in America, no idea what to call them).

But people have come to rely on it, and there'd be fewer people working those types of jobs if there wasn't some extra money from the customers.

If there was a collective way to tell the tipping industry to change, I think a lot of people would be for it. But for now it feels like you're taking away something they reasonably expect if you don't tip.
Even so, even more sparsely population areas in Europe have better public transport than many US cities.

When I started in uni in Sweden, before I found a local apartment I had to commute from my parent's place. The commute basically crossed a county with a population density of 120 ppl/km2. They lived in a village of 4000 ppl, and I commuted through farmlands, connecting in a city of 100,000 ppl to the student town of 90,000 ppl. It was about 70 km (43 mi) and 50 minutes each way (1 regional bus, 1 train, 1 city bus). Despite this, there were interlocking combinations of these trains+buses about every 20 minutes.
GitHub pages, Google Cloud Platform free tier, Firebase Hosting - all those are targeted at hosting sites or binaries, and thus are likely to be a more stable and longterm alternative to Dropbox.

In Japan they have a really logic system where each bike just has a registration number. When you buy a bike they can easily change the owner through some paperwork (there's a lot of paperwork in general in Japan but it's also really efficient). It's really just the same as a motorbike or car, just it's not for ID from far away so they are small stickers instead.
You really don't understand this? You don't realize what a big city SF is, or how organized these groups can be, or how hard it is to track down bike serial numbers, or how that task is impossible after the bikes are "chopped"? Or how you'd get totally wrecked if you tried to show up and exert your dire consequences on an organized group of bike thieves?

If you spent a few minutes thinking about these things, I think you'd have something valuable to add.
I can lose my train of thought between walking from one room to another. It's got nothing to do with the value of the thought itself - just that I'm easily distracted.

It's highly likely I can recapture the thought by stepping back into the environment in which it occurred (in this case skim re-reading the article I imagine), but honestly I don't tend to comment on ephemeral sites, rather post on communities about commenting. It seems more interesting/useful
One of the most popular apps in the US. Not the world.

Here in Australia everyone uses Uber and the experience has been excellent. Which means that it's going to be that much harder for Lyft to get any traction.
I see people mentioning things like "become a vegetarian" or "bike to work", but those are easy and neglible-impact things. Sure, they'd have a huge effect if half of the population suddenly adopted them, but that's not going to happen - so just going vegetarian yourself and calling it a day is not really helping anything.

What I'd love to see is a list of high-impact work one could use their skills to help with. Maybe some research groups would use a better software package? Maybe there's a process that could help and is not yet economically viable, but could be made such?

Let's try and list things like that.
Didn't know that I was already warned about political comments. But why on earth is political comments not allowed, when political submissions (Such as OP) clearly are?

4. and 5. are cheaper than OPs gold bar example

2. likely was never regularly sold online, and if it were newer it would be similar to 3.

3. might qualify, depending on how the ordering process actually went -> back when it was available I've seen it in camera sellers catalogues, but it was made only when somebody ordered one, so it quite likely wasn't just shipped out without any extra process.

Not a myth: Kotlin is the better Java

Although Kotlin does have a lot of stuff that technically allows to write weird code, most of that (eg. extensions) is around for better interfacing with Java, and normally not used in pure K code.

Haven't read the article yet, but from skimming it it doesn't seem to mention The Internet Archive's work in preserving classic arcade, computer and console games (not sure if it was already underway in 2011):

Nice quote, thanks!

"In my Inaugural I laid down the simple proposition that nobody is going to starve in this country. It seems to me to be equally plain that no business which depends for existence on paying less than living wages to its workers has any right to continue in this country. By "business" I mean the whole of commerce as well as the whole of industry; by workers I mean all workers, the white collar class as well as the men in overalls; and by living wages I mean more than a bare subsistence level-I mean the wages of decent living."

An answer in two parts:

The software tools: For me, PyCharm and Jupyter for development, Dask for data preprocessing, Tensorflow, Theano, and various scipy libraries for ML, as well as helpers such as PyMC3 and Edward for probabilistic programming.

The important tool: a PhD in applied mathematics that taught me how to think originally and creatively about problems, to abstract and codify them with mathematics, and to approach them numerically and computationally.

I suspect that the answer you were looking for is the first set of tools. This set is extremely nice to have; the second set, at least for me, is essential.

Only stainless steel tools on stainless steel work pieces and vice versa. Don't mix stainless/non-stainless tools and non-stainless/stainless work pieces. Hence stuff like screw drivers will be needed in both variants.
How scientific cosmology puts a new twist on the problem of evil
This is equivalent to shipping bad application code that takes everything down. Except the config is only a handful of lines of code and will very likely never change again. Also, we don't blindly roll out changes cluster wide for things like this without testing explicitly on staging or test nodes.
Google is also a big part of the reason of the poor health of the web.
I've come to firmly reject this idea lately. I have been asking myself this question of the validity of climate change science. I came to this conclusion: all the policy in the world wouldn't matter unless one thing happened - find more cost effective energy alternatives. Period. End of story.

Now, whether you're a climate change denier or not, all this boils down to is, is it(energy source) cheaper? Not just cheaper in terms of a one to one comparison but also included is the cost of deployment. You've got to embrace a praxeological vantage point and ask, what will the majority of actors purposefully engage in in order to meet their energy demands? Will most humans choose clean energy because it is good for the environment even though it hurts them fiscally? The hurtful but pragmatic answer to this is a firm NO.

Think about how hard government policy has tried to deal with something that's already illegal - drugs - and yet it has failed spectacularly. Will these same government actors all of a sudden become competent enough to deal with big oil (whom I believe are just being pragmatic about meeting the world energy demands)?

Once you put it that way, it becomes very clear, policy is borderline nonsense and is just another excuse for government to infringe on private property rights.

So, the solution? Intense research in finding energy alternatives that are truly cheaper in terms of BOTH large scale deployment as well as one to one comparison. Right now I'm not convinced we have anything that fits the bill.

Your intuition is just right, the way theorists are adding the dark matter/dark energy factor just to make their models fit with observations is the equivalent of 19st century methodology leading to the consideration of space filled with ether.

So is speaking fluent English (even as a native speaker). The thing is that both are so common that they aren't really skills in the US market.

Knowing how to drive is nearly ubiquitous in the US in the 18+ year old population.

Your first paragraph could have been written by me so it was nice to discover I'm not alone. However, I find FaceTime audio calls to be of such higher quality than regular phone lines or most other VOIP services that it is my go-to for calls where I need to be able to concentrate. The only other service I've found to be comparable is Slack's calls.
"Throw an error" makes no sense at the hardware level. That's like saying a NIC should "throw an error" when it loses link. It's up to languages and libraries to turn signals/registers/flags into higher-level concepts like structured exceptions.
I think this will sort itself out in the near future if Google really wants to play in this area (who knows maybe this will be cancelled after a year it's Google after all). They have the machine learning power to negotiate deals with content creators that have some sort fo usage royalties. They basically get worldwide streaming rights in return for a reasonable payback that takes international viewers into account.
I think the more interesting play could be targeted add injection. Imagine this service for free but with targeted adds where TV commercials would run...I'm not sure online viewers are actually willing to watch adds for TV shows but free is also free so there's that. Or maybe a hybrid or maybe virtual product placement or some sort of add system I can't think of yet.

Add to that a theoretical possibility of automatic translation and possibly even modeling the Chinese voice of actor X to sound like the original from the original broadcast data which would cut out the dubbing costs and the worldwide streaming workflow could be optimized further.
You could put any longish number on it, then report that number to the police. Electric engraving tools aren't expensive, around $20.

Legislation could mandate a website that handed out numbers to people who registered and provided a way to report those numbers as stolen. Registrants could provide a pic of their bike with the numbers.

This won't eliminate the problem, but it will provide an easy and free method that people could identify their bikes, report them as stolen, and the police can identify which bikes are stolen and return them.

Nintendo Switch: The game modules taste horrible
Dito for me (although I personally take the climate influences more as a reason than the ethics). The interesting thing is that, if someone finds out by chance that I'm a vegetarian, they always ask me for the reason. At times I almost suspect they expect some moral lecture just to be able to oppose it.

Something in human nature just seems to force us to dig trenches that way.

Also, there are the moments when you as the vegetarian get lectured on how "it's natural" to eat meat when in my area, some 50-60 years ago, you would have been inredibly rich or lucky if you got one piece of meat each day. Go figure.
