I don't think this will result in a good effect.

The people who are conscientious will not have kids, while the others will have kids. As a result the next generation will be more likely to be less conscientious due to nature, and nurture.

I think the solution is education, and specifically, education about ethics and conservation. If we make the next generation feel obligated to be stewards of the earth, and smart enough to act on that obligation, then the human race has a chance. But it has to happen with this generation being born now, or we won't have the time to save Earth without leaving it first - one way or another.

The Zoom security team has a lot to answer for on this one. They subverted built in security to only then fall victim to the very thing that would have been stopped by what they subverted.

Good on Zoom to do a rapid course reversal here although naturally trust is now damaged given they only came to their senses under strong public pressure. Also a good case study of how putting “user experience” over security can come back to burn you.

It's never been that way in the US. Sale of any cryptocurrency for any other or any asset or even a cup of coffee has been a taxable event since the beginning.

You realize a profit or loss every time you transact, and that's a taxable event. It's not tied to whether or not the transaction is into or out of fiat currency.
"Here are why"? That doesn't appear in the article at all, let alone in its title.
The Dutch are my "thermometer" for oceans rising, when they start buying real estate in Switzerland, then I'll worry.

As for now, there's no evidence whatsoever of oceans rising or any change that could in any way be deemed as out of natural variations. Besides, if (and that's a really big if) oceans eventually start to rise, we'll be already facing problems way worse. People would already have been displaced by other reasons, so that's actually not very high on the worry list.

It is worth to remind some climate hysterics that costal cities would have to eventually change anyway, erosion is constant, even earthquakes or the more slower tectonic movement would eventually alter coastlines and continents.

Honestly, alien invasion comes way higher on my list than oceans rising…
Got a Tesla? Elon Musk hints it could soon drive itself
That's the fundamental idea behind a black hole. The concept of escape velocity is based on the curvature of spacetime and is represented by √2GM/R where M is mass and R is radius. Light travels along the curvature of spacetime. At the event horizon of a black hole, escape velocity equals c, so from that point down to the singularity, spacetime is curved so much that light simply isn't traveling fast enough to escape.
These are reasonable points, although my intuition is that your guess about the total damages is low.
I think we're saying the same thing? We're not going to be able to switch everyone to plant-based food without years of planning of changing, so there's no need to worry about that happening - and it's potentially distracting from the thing we hopefully can manage, i.e. instilling in younger generations to eat less meat.
You'd think that then you look at the way older people as a bloc vote in ways that shaft their offspring.

I have wondered if panspermia could have occurred in the Sun's birth cluster. This cluster would have had a very high density of stars, with gas around them to slow and capture material ejected from their neighbor systems. And the asteroids in orbit around these stars would have still be warm enough to have liquid water in them, so life could potentially have been seeded in a wide variety of environments.

This possibility, if true, means SETI might be worthwhile even if the actual origin of life is astronomically rare, much less than once per observable volume of the universe. SETI would look at the other stars that were in that cluster. Even if the rest of the universe were devoid of life, they (like the continents of Earth, or planets in our solar system) could share the same origin event.

This scenario might also explain why life apparently originated so early in the history of our solar system: this sort of natal panspermia would statistically amplify origin-of-life events that happened early on, by multiplying the number of systems they'd affect. This amplification would occur even if OoL was extremely rare.
Not OP, but to be honest, I think they just used too heavy of a word.

I’m using this technique too, especially on freelancing sites.

I’ll say something like:

Make sure to include the word “horse” in your application.

This isn’t a trick question.

But the main reason I do this is to avoid bots and bot-like behaviour. Where applicants just copy paste the same mumbo-jumbo into every project, regardless of a fit.

This happens with job applications a lot too. I’d estimate that about 80% of resumes received feel like spam. They are so unqualified it just makes no sense to apply.

E.g. an ad for a NodeJs dev with web experience receives a resume with 10 years of C experience in embedded systems. Also no mention of wanting to change industry or anything like that. Just a resume without prelude.

The second, minor, reason I do this is I check for attention to detail and ability to follow instructions.
Also it's not "very difficult", it's nearly (if not exactly) impossible.
Disagree vociferously.

1) A carbon tax is perhaps the most common proposed solution to the climate change problem. It would increase quality of life, not reduce choice nor induce rationing. Currently, burning carbon imposes externalities that are not paid by the emitter. This means that some of the carbon emitted is emitted even though it provides more costs than benefits. A carbon tax and dividend INCREASES economic efficiency by ensuring that CO2 is generated only when benefits exceed costs.

2) oil & gas are extremely useful for a lot of different things, and there's still a lot of it left in the ground. Technology improvements will only shift usage; it will still be used for something. Only a "stick" such as a carbon tax can ensure that such usage is efficient.

From what I understand all the valuable parts are removed beforehand. Just a hunk of steel remains to scrap - (scrapping would have waited for a WWII scrap drive)
There would be cost to ordinary people in developed countries as well. The rapid change needed will probably reduce living standards for a generation with several percentages.

Overall there may be net positive effects for all generations, never in the history of the humanity have masses sacrificed for the whole of the humanity.
You could just use an USB device for higher throughput. The Sandisk Extreme Go, for example, is basically a small SSD in a USB drive form-factor.
This does not back up your claim. Much of it is about lack of evidence on which to draw conclusions. That's clear enough just in the abstract. I'll quote from the abstract. Selectively due to length, but I'll try to be fair:

"The three mechanisms considered are as follows 1: direct infection with resistant bacteria from an animal source, 2: breaches in the species barrier followed by sustained transmission in humans of resistant strains arising in livestock, and 3: transfer of resistance genes from agriculture into human pathogens. Of these, mechanism 1 is the most readily estimated, while significant is small in comparison with the overall burden of resistant disease. Several cases of mechanism 2 are known [so it's been demonstrated to happen], and we discuss the likely livestock origins of [some bacteria] it is hard to assess in robust fashion. More difficult yet to study is the contribution of mechanism 3, which may be the most important of all."

To summarise, a little, some known, and we don't know.

From the summary, and again I'm quoting selectively so be warned:

"The limited data available make it hard to quantify the relationship between antibiotic use in animals and the occurrence of clinical resistance. As we have shown, while there is considerable evidence associating antimicrobial use in agriculture with resistant pathogens in livestock and in the food supply, the evidence for human health risks directly attributable to agricultural antibiotics runs the gamut from speculative to scant"

Summary: possible real threat, too little data to evaluate.

Further, again from the conclusion:

"Once these [antibiotic-resistant] strains have emerged, it might be only a matter of time before they cross the species barrier and adapt to living in humans, at which time there is very little regulation of agriculture can do to prevent their persistence in the clinical setting. The greatest value of reducing agricultural antibiotic use now may be in maintaining a status quo that, while far from ideal, is greatly preferable to the alternative."

Summary: we scientists don't know but we have reason to be very concerned.

These are my selective quotes and my interpretations, but I personally don't see that they support your position.

One of my favorite CloudFlare products is Argo.

I recently shipped a RaspberryPi-controlled device to a client. Its API needed to be exposed to the internet securely and with little hassle. Doing this with Argo was super simple: Install the daemon and configure it to expose the internal web server port on some subdomain. When the device arrived in the client's hand, they only had to power it on.

This is similar to ngrok, etc, but more production focused and gives you all features of CloudFlare out of the box.

Sometimes you need both, especially in countries where there's no environmentalist culture and people have too much troubles in day-to-day survival to really have time and incentive to care about global and longterm issues like ecology or climate changes. In my own experience of growing in one such environment, if you give them just carrots, they'll work really hard to come up with a way to trick the system and grab the incentives while changing nothing. For any change to happen the government just has to push by force for certain baseline rules to be imposed on everyone, and then after some time peoples' mindsets adapt to this new set of rules and they start to play along.

The solution is to replace their car with a vehicle that's less dangerous for others like an electrically assisted tricycle. That can serve their local transportation needs and won't cause nearly as much damage if they hit someone or something.

For clarity, there is a significant warm up time for the DB to load your data when you cold-start, so this is sadly not suitable for use with serverless lambda functions in a web request cycle.

A good use case for this would be batch processing on demand e.g. a background job that's infrequently run when records are uploaded somehow. You save the cost of keeping a big DB running in between jobs and the start up time doesn't matter.
