"Combining isotopic evidence from ground surface measurements with the newly calculated fire emissions, the team showed that about 17 teragrams per year of the increase is due to fossil fuels, another 12 is from wetlands or rice farming, while fires are decreasing by about 4 teragrams per year. The three numbers combine to 25 teragrams a year -- the same as the observed increase"[1]

Personally, I just avoid shopping in the city center unless I have a particularly good reason to. But the parent said they couldn’t understand why anybody would want to drive into the city. The answer is perfectly obvious. Convenience, even though it comes at the expense of taking more time. Everybody could do things the way you suggest too, but it would still be less convenient, so not everybody will do that every time. I’m sure many of those same people also buy things online, in circumstance where that’s the more convenient option.

In a nutshell though: JSON (for example) doesn't mean anything. It has no semantics - it's just syntax. I wanted something that had a semantics. Plus, proper support for binary, records, and sets, and keys in dictionaries that didn't have to be strings.

I assume that those areas would not be sufficient to cover current meat and dairy demands. If they were there wouldn't be any deforestation or soy fields for animal feed. And non-grazed grasslands is still going to release less methane than grazed lands.

Unfortunately very little chance of that, long sold
For this reason, furniture shop, hardware shop, or any shop that tend to sell bulky things is usually not in the city center in a place more accessible by car and with a parking. At least, that's what happening in my city.

For other shopping, you can usually park in a relay parking (a parking close to public transportation) and you will be 5 to 15 minutes from the shops. And unless you brought a real shitons of things (which already means that going shop to shop is going to be annoying anyway) it's not going to be an issue.

Almost all conventional/industrial agriculture (plant or animal based) is unsustainable due to the external inputs required (70% from fossil fuels for growing corn! [1]), soil depletion incurred [2], and just plain shipping things around. [3]

The alternative is local regenerative agriculture [4], which the Rodale Institute [5] and a recent Quantis (non-peer reviewed) studies [6] point to being potentially carbon net negative due to carbon soil sequestration via regenerative grazing. It also appears to be more economically sustainable [7][8] and can provide competitive yields [8].

Possibly regarding the stress tolerance, the fondness (or lack thereof) of Berlin's specific culture likely plays a role as well.

And I'm not saying that the car is superior for any and all connections, but that it's superior for many that aren't easy to do by PT. It's similar with trains: Berlin to Hamburg is easy by train, but if your destination requires a switch or two, the car is often the quicker option on medium distances.

It looks like you DID update it: https://gist.github.com/grugq/353b6fc9b094d5700c70

And from that gist:

> Use an iPod or an iPad without a SIM card

> Use an iPhone

How can you then says:

> A hardened Android device (disclaimer, I’m making one for retail sale) is safer than a stock iOS.

?

Is Android (and in general any open source system) safer than a iOS (a closed and highly customized system) ?

The idea I heard over and over is that a open source system is more secure because the code is scrutinized by anyone that wants to.

But with a monthly security update and how quickly a vulnerability can be exploited, it does not seems to be the case anymore.

The main reason is the time between a vulnerability is patched in the source code and the patch is deployed. When a commit that fixes a vulnerability is committed on the Android codebase, anybody that knows what is looking at would be able to notice it, and likely build/distribute an exploit before the patch is actually pushed to all users. On a closed source system, an exploiter can still reverse engineer the changes in an update but less people have the skills to do it and it is not straight forward to understand which changes in the code are a security patches.

Considering the timing and what I see on the Android security bulletin almost every month there are EoP and even RCE vulnerabilities being patched. A Google Phone, on average, will go 2 weeks every month vulnerable to a "known" vulnerability.

For all the others the situation is dramatically worse. Samsung is at best a month behind the security update schedule. A Samsung's user will have a phone that is always behind the last vulnerabilities patched and visible in the Android code base.

Some of these vulnerabilities can be quickly distributed since everybody has an LTE internet connection, read new on a browser.
For sure it's a tradeoff - more space + privacy/isolation vs. less space + more people and things to do outside your home. Houses in America are way bigger than the rest of the world because everything is so spread out.

I prefer living in an apartment in a nice city vs. living in a big house in the suburbs. But it's totally fine to feel the opposite.

The problem is that in the U.S., the only real city of any scale that's truly carless that I've ever seen is NYC. It's fun for a year or two, but it's too "city" in all the negative ways and very expensive so not a place I'd want to live in long-term (unless I stumbled onto enough millions to buy a brownstown in Brooklyn Heights or something).
Not disagreeing, but calling out that if you get a significant lump sum you can easily set aside x% for taxes, but if you get the same amount of debt forgiven there's no pot to "set aside" from. You need to come up with that money now* from your existing money which can be challenging if the forgiven amount was significant.

* Granted, you can usually arrange to pay a large tax bill over time, but that is basically debt which you'll be annoyed/surprised to find yourself back in...

I don't know about Aussie but in the U.S. the only good cities for cabs were the very large and dense cities like NYC. Everywhere else cab services were awful. Cars were not clean, they often wouldn't take credit card, it would take 30 minutes or more to get picked up, it was just terrible service. I know Lyft only takes 20% of fare, so drivers get the bulk of fee and I pay $25 for a 15 minute ride to the airport and tip $5. I've heard drivers average between $18 and $25 an hour, so well above minimum wage.
We're creatures of habit. The pattern of breakfast, lunch and dinner means I'm usually "hungry" before breakfast, lunch and dinner.

I was feeling hungry about dinner time a while back, but I couldn't decide what to eat so I skipped. I woke the next morning and didn't feel hungry at all. That seemed odd to me. So I skipped breakfast and ate lunch only (same portion size as normal) and continued to do so for six weeks. I felt great. Workouts strong, focus and concentration improved. I saved a bunch of time and money.

After that did a 13 day fast (zero food). Day 3 sucked, but the 10 that followed where really eye opening in a wholly positive way. I do a lot of boxing, and I didn't stop during this fast. I thought it would suck but I had tons of energy and lots of speed. At the finishing lime, the first morsel of food (some roast pumpkin) was savored and tasted incredible. It gave me a new awareness and appreciation of what and how much food I need to maintain maximum performance.

I know i could eat a LOT less than I do in a year and be as or more healthy and contribute to a healthier environment. We just have to break the habit. That's really hard given the social culture of eating.

That's 4 hours by train or 6 hours by car. The train costs 160 Euros without any reductions. I wonder what you paid for the car rental and fuel costs etc. A random calculator I consulted estimated about 60 Euros for fuel alone.

Hello,
The post from 3 months ago was for the launch.
For months and months before the launch I was working hard on DarwinMail.

I received so so much helpful feedback and support on launch day... I was simply blown away.

Since the launch, I have been improving DarwinMail and implementing new features that have been requested.

Early morning, after hours, weekends and during dinner time is when I work on DarwinMail and I love doing so.
One of the main features requested since the launch was bundles and I only recently added that feature to DarwinMail.

Please, allow me to receive the same kind of valuable feedback I once received. It was wonderful to hear so many valuable thoughts and I would be over the moon if it happened again.

No one is taking your meat away. The most plausible implementation is to make meat slightly more expensive. People do respond to incentives. People with strong meat preference (like you seem to be) can continue to eat meat, but people with marginal meat preference will switch.

I completely agree, it i an enticing offer from Apple for the reason you lay out.

Not all brokers are alike though, exploit survival is a gamble, but sensible end-buyers usually don't want to burn the exploits either so will use them sensibly. There are some brokers that don't sell exclusively (despite their claims), they have a reputation for exploits getting burned early.

I have not been involved with any iOS exploits, not really my area of interest, but lets say I was. Would I consider selling it off to Apple, yeah, it would be something to consider. I'd consider the market rates too of course, 1MM vs 1.5MM, sure Apple is enticing, 1MM vs 2MM, maybe not. Not sure where I would actually draw a line, but you are right that Apple doesn't need to compete directly with the market rate, just close enough.

I'm sure there are those that would rather just go for the bigger profits regardless.
