But since any activity changes the environment for the worse, by that logic everything is subsidised. We can't use language that way - words become meaningless. Logically it goes straight to a silly place where everyone is getting 'welfare' because the government isn't taxing them for breathing out CO2.

A subsidy is the government forcing more resources to be allocated to something than people with money think is good. An externality is when we believe that outcomes are affecting people who weren't the buyer/seller.

The environmental lobby wants to claim that fossil fuels are subsidised therefore we must stamp them out because it is Free Market. Charitably speaking, that really just shows the environmentalists are making an effort to use other people's language but don't understand the free market philosophy at a fundamental level. If the use of something has to stop for environmental reasons then it is taxed. Claiming that it is really reversing a subsidy comes out more as trying to shout the opposition down by changing what words mean on them. It is bad form.
Still prefer how Pixel 3 photos look like on the phone that was released a year ago [1]. Interestingly I recall my first Android to be Samsung i977 some 9 years ago and photos were more vivid than iPhone X.

However Pixel comes with unlimited (!!) photo and 4k video storage [2]. Apple cannot beat that.

I suggest you pick up an LG G3 and test it's capabilities out. It's not like HDR is some new invention that just came about in the smart phone space. It's been around forever. Yes, some of the algorithms have gotten better, and the HDR tonemapping has been improved, but I've taken thousands of HDR images with my G3 many years ago that looked great.

Well, you're certainly very defensive for no apparent reason. All I stated was that it would suffer for prints, which is factual and nothing you stated really adds value to that. I didn't say that it was no good because of that...
When there are 20 qualified applicants per job you can apply to dozens or hundreds of jobs and beat or negate the unfavorable numbers. When there are hundreds or thousands of applicants for jobs, you can't apply for tens of thousands of jobs. The listings just don't exist. Your only real chance is to find an inside connection and skip the anonymous application portal.
Carbon tax + per head tax credit. Big consumers (the rich) end up paying, small consumers (the poor) end up with cash in their pocket, the government has no extra revenue that could lead to perverse incentives.

Worth noting that the proportion of the Atlanta metro area that is actually within the city proper Atlanta is MUCH lower than the other locations on this list. Atlanta is about 9%. London is about 60%. I'm guessing the cameras per person in Atlanta drops if you measure across the most densely populated 60% of the metro area.

Bart: No.

Tony: Well, suppose you got a large starving family. Is it wrong to steal a truckload of bread to feed them?

Bart: Uh uh.

Tony: And, what if your family don't like bread? They like... cigarettes?

Bart: I guess that's okay.

Tony: Now, what if instead of giving them away, you sold them at a price that was practically giving them away. Would that be a crime, Bart?

Bart: Hell, no!

2 wrongs don't make a right. And again, there was a non-hypothetical, objective argument that could have been made to defend Minsky. RMS did not make that argument, instead he went off on some hypothetical that may or may not have happened, but there is at least one eyewitness testimony that says it didn't.

And this wasn't RMS's first time wading into bad positions on topics that honestly aren't up for debate.

I don't think the deformation of that crash is what was relevant; rather, it appears that autopilot failed to act correctly in that situation.

"How will it detect unwanted (spying) traffic from legitimate operations (software update...)?"

That would be harder, especially true in case of encrypted traffic.

"Moreover it is a moving target, as the firmware can, at some point in time, use another endpoint (especially after an update)."

This one might be easier to fight than the former. Upgradabe black lists might be a solution, not unlike some antispam software work: the firewall software downloads weekly/daily from a central server (1) a list of all legit/evil addresses and checks where the TV attempts to connect against that list, then filters traffic as required.

(1) I would assume we would trust a centralized server for this purpose as much as we would trust a server holding spam and malware sites.

Lots of vehicles have less crush strength than the Model 3, and most of them don't have glass roofs. If you recall... the NTHSA testing of the Model S literally broke their machine. The NTHSA said the Model S had the best rollover test (top impact from their machine trying to crush it) of anything they've ever tested.

https://www.roadandtrack.com/new-cars/videos/a5238/watch-the...

To really answer your question, I've arbitrarily picked a few common vehicles with metal roofs.

The IIHS says the Civic roof withstands 13,195lbs of force: https://www.iihs.org/ratings/vehicle/honda/civic-2-door-coup...

A Subaru Outback: 18,533lbs of roof strength: https://www.iihs.org/ratings/vehicle/subaru/outback-4-door-w...

A BMW 3 series has roughly the same roof strength as a Model 3: https://www.iihs.org/ratings/vehicle/bmw/3-series-4-door-sed...

An Audi A5 is only 16,327lbs of roof strength: https://www.iihs.org/ratings/vehicle/audi/a5-coupe-2-door-co...

The Pirate Bay is still up, even if they do have to keep changing URLs; one can Google on "pirate bay proxy" to get a list of whatever the latest hostnames are, then go to those sites.

This is a slight hassle, and the time it takes is not really significant compared to watching a 2-hour movie. I suspect it is less hassle than trying to buy a DRM-crippled movie and playing it on my Linux box.
This is problematic, it means I can't just send this to a pro-fossil guy I know. He would rightly dismiss it on those grounds (he is on "CO2 is not a pollutant, it is plant food" level at the moment) and will be even more convinced by his side.
Makes sense, the language in that quote sounds much more like a company press release. I would have been surprised if the IIHS actually said things like "the exceptional strength". On the contrary, IIHS didn't even find this fact important enough to mention in their press release at all.
Most of the costs of bringing a new drug to market are in the human trials. Sure pre-clinical is expensive, but it's still super cheap compared to clinical development.

So if this drug you discovered does make it to market, the drug company itself is paying for the vast majority of the costs and all the risk that goes along with spending hundreds of millions and having nothing to show for it. In return, we dangle the carrot of profit in front of them.

You are correct that the public paid for that initial discovery, but the ownership is given to the lab that found it. The other alternative is for the gov't to keep ownership of the patent.
Because nuclear can't keep up on cost. Right now, new wind, PV solar, and gas all cost about half as much per kwh as nuclear. We actually have numerous nuclear plants being decommissioned early in the US, because they've lost industrial-scale customers to cheaper new sources, and since their operational cost doesn't reduce with output, it can cost more to keep the plant running than to just shut it down.

A lot of pro-nuclear activists respond with "Yeah, but" and bring up theoretical thorium designs and such that are not actually in production operation anywhere. But until they are in production, they are not actual competition for the gas/wind/solar systems that are commercially available, at scale, right now. But traditional light water reactors? They're a technological dead end. The cost doesn't work.
"No, it just expose the realities of that market, seasonal storage is not a solved problem."

Bank Reserves: What Are They and Why a Shortage Is Roiling a Key Interest Rate
I was on an even older prepaid T-Mobile plan, and they stopped allowing the purchase of "data passes" entirely. I was also seeing call reliability problems in urban Southern California.

If you have a spare phone, I highly recommend a Mint trial. There is a 7-day starter pack, which gives you two SIMs and lets you test briefly with a temporary number and then reactivate on the second SIM if you wish to port in your existing number. But, I thought the $45 pack was so cheap that I used it for a longer 3-month trial, after which I was happy to keep it alive as my new main service.

You also have to think about whether you care to keep your old grandfathered plan, i.e. on a backup phone. I kept mine because I can keep it alive for $5/year if not using minutes. But, I imagine I may drop it some day if it cannot be relied on to actually place an emergency call...

I might drink 8 pints in a night hanging out with friends, spread out over about 6 hours. The beers I drink in pubs cost on average 6 Euro. That works out as 8 euro/hour, which is about US$8.84 and is 1 and 1/3 pints an hour. If I drink one more, for an average of 1.5 an hour, then it works out as US$9.94, still under $10/hour on average spread over about 6 hours.
It's even pre-industrial age model. School and its strict class system originate from the church. And I totally agree it should be disrupted by a more scientific proven model so kids can actually start to enjoy learning.

That's all the downvotes ;)

Yeah, it also conflates private/publicly owned cameras. As someone who lives in London, I think we get unfairly portrayed as a surveillance state, because really the vast majority of cameras are inside shops and businesses, not on the street, and not connected to any central databank. I personally don't find cameras like these troubling. Once you get out of central London, most streets don't have cameras on them.

I’ve been doing professional photography for over a decade, having used a wide range of DSLR’s and mirrorless cameras.

I really enjoy using my iPhone for photography when not working. It removes the friction of taking photos. I don’t have to carry a large camera while traveling, don’t have to charge extra things, it’s just overall easier.
Whatever quality I’m losing is made up by simply capturing more moments than I otherwise would have if I was using my DSLR.
Wind and solar produced electricity. Electricity is a subset of energy (around 20% i think)

Last summer in Denmark was amazing. The best we have had in a long time, the result was that the wind didn't blow wich meant no energy.

So Denmark had to buy their energy from Germany, another country who is all in on trying to use alternatives.

Of course that couldnt' deliver and instead they got energy from coal.

There is so much misinformation going on when it comes to how wonderful solar and wind is.

The reality is that they are less than 1% of the worlds energy production and not projected to be more than around 30% in 2040.

In short. You are as wrong as you can be with regards to your believe in wind and solar.

Hydro is better but only works in some places.

Dumb example; I had been doing concurrent programming full-time for a few years with threads and whatnot, but mostly using abstractions in the language like STM and F#'s async monad and whatnot. Eventually someone used the term "mutex" and I didn't know what they meant...only to be embarrassed when they told me it's a lock, and I just didn't know the name of it. I felt like an idiot.

I know enough algorithm stuff to pass a lot of whiteboard interviews (and I certainly know a lot more now than I did during that anecdote), but I'm not sure I could write a min-heap or merge sort without looking a bunch of stuff up first. I don't think I'm stupid, it's just that I don't typically write explicit merge sorts or min-heaps in day-to-day code, and it hasn't been sexy enough for me to write my own, but I do think having an understanding of the mechanics is useful and important.
This is a big deal because it increases the critical mass towards electrification of transportation, even moreso than the carbon offset by the vans. Right now early adopters are okay with ChargePoint and tolerating some uncertainty with the next charge, but we need 1) more renewable grid input and 2) much more "refueling" infrastructure (public 40 and 80 amp charging).

How about the fact that we know that fossil fuels and nuclear (and hydro and geothermal if the geography allows it) can actually power a modern economy? Is there a comparable example you can point to where solar or wind successfully replaced traditional power generators?

You don't have to convince me fossil fuels are shitty and need to be replaced. I'm with you. Tell me how solar/wind replaces those.
I think the post you originally replied to was fully aware all the topics they mentioned were identity politics in the US. I understood their complaint as:

2) Issues that aren't inherently identity politics (e.g. environmentalism or healthcare) get re-cast as such.
