Lets wait until they actually have devices and OEMs lined up, which may very well be never. I can't imagine e.g. Samsung being very excited about buying into this new Google walled garden. And this our way or the highway type policy is not going to help. So, that means they are either looking at long term maintaining both Fuchsia and Android, or a hard fork of the Android ecosystem by one of several third parties. And I doubt Google is going to walk away from huge chunks of mobile device market share any time soon.

In any case, Kotlin is the obviously superior language compared to Dart that they already have a lively developer ecosystem for. And it has a native compiler that the before mentioned ecosystem already uses to not be stuck using Dart when writing IOS and Android libraries that can be used from a flutter UI.

I don't see any major technical hurdles for also having bindings for Go, Rust, Swift, or other languages in the llvm ecosystem. Obviously the whole thing has native bindings (flutter basically transpiles to C++). Swift support would be a major enabler for bringing in IOS developers. Come to think about it, WASM and flutter could be a nice marriage as well. And yes, I've heard the arguments why all this is not possible on multiple occasions from flutter fan boys. IMHO that's a problem that needs fixing and not an inherent design limitation. It's a prioritization problem. It boils down to Google being stubborn and arrogant. It boils down to not invented here syndrome.

-140C only works for CO2-rich streams (> 10%). As the partial pressure of CO2 decreases, you'll need to get asymptotically closer to the melting point of oxygen/nitrogen. You'll also need to increase the pressure, but again that only gets you reasonable temperature gains if the partial pressure of CO2 is >>0mmHg. Currently it is 0.3mmHg @ 400ppm. In short, this is not a viable method for removing CO2 from the atmosphere.

I made some slightly more detailed posts elsewhere but this article addresses your point directly. Essentially, this is not a viable method for removing CO2 from the sky, because there's so little CO2 in the sky that it changes all the basic physics assumptions.

This is actually relatively basic undergraduate level napkin math from a chemical engineering perspective, but outside of that discipline most people understandably don't have experience with estimating physical states of mixed gases.

Completely speculating here but this specific case sounds like a bad luck situation in which the family in question had an extreme genetic susceptibility to suffering the virus at its worst. As other comments have pointed out (and the data so far seems to back) the vast majority 81%+ of cases are fairly mild or even asymptomatic and the elderly are those who suffer the higher 2%+ mortality rates (based on what I've read, the mortality rate adjusted for younger age groups is roughly 0.2% or less.)

Most of the bug tracking thread was just about whether `somedictsubclass() | somedictsubclass()` should be `dict()` or `somedictsubclass()`

The latter (returns `somedictsubclass`) would cause the `|` operator to rely on the `copy()` method from `dict` which would be the only case where an operator relies on a non-double-underscores method. Based on that, two core devs were against it. The core devs prevailed, and the behaviour will be the former (returns `dict`).

You just said "If the landlords can pass on 100% of the property tax, then the supply is way out of sync with the demand". For growing areas, why would any investor develop any land to increase housing supply to rent out if the property tax alone would cause them to lose money based on the money they could make renting out places?

How do you know that it's just fatalities in old and sick? If that's the case, I don't understand why many younger people in Wuhan are dying including the whistle blower doctor who was only 33 years old. We don't even know what the disease will do in terms of long term damage to survivors or the possibility of poor immunity and reinfection. I haven't seen any good statistics on the fatality rate vs age.
I'm rather surprised to see this statement: "...our planet has operated on a 24-hour clock for the entire span of evolutionary time".

My understanding is that during the Cambrian, the day was less than 23 hours long. At the emergence of the first eukaryotes it was 21 hours. Much shorter still when life first appeared.

Cypress is pretty good for this. Every command is queued up and sort of deferred. You write tests in a synchronous manner and it has retrryability built in so it will wait for an assertion to be truth before continuing (with a max timeout ofc).

Wait, what? Open source cellular modules? Can you point me to something? All I could find in the linked repo was some helper utility to address a couple of modules.
> a magnitude more deadly

Probably not. Case fatality rates don't accurately show the "deadliness" since many people have likely been infected but been asymptomatic or had mild illness that didn't cause them to seek medical advice.

> significant long term health consequences for many who survive

There is no evidence for that, and it doesn't make sense given the available data. Some number of people have long-term health consequences, and if you only compare that number to the number of people who went to hospital with serious illness, you might see a high percentage, but that's a huge distortion of reality.

Superbugs in US hospitals escaping due to increased CoronaVirus patients...
I’m in Tokyo and having a very different experience than you, nearly everyone on the trains are wearing masks and all customer facing staff I see now. Someone hit the emergency button on the train a few days ago because someone was coughing without one (there was a PSA asking people not to do that).

It’s mostly foreigners I see walking around without masks now, but I agree it’s still ramping up. I honestly don’t see the US getting close to this level of prevention, so if it fails here it’s going to be devastating there.
This is not an event for petty emotions. Also in high likelihood those who are there on behalf of the CDC are keeping quiet in order not to be kicked out. But you bet there's espionage going on. The Chinese government doesn't mess around.

And in this case it'd be justified. You're talking about the rest of the world at stake. This is no place for cover-ups and minimization. Transparency is critical.
People are eventually going to realize that the economic costs of this reaction far exceeds the cost of letting it spread, and things will slowly return to normal.

The only real uncertainty at this point is if the HN/reddit fever-dream scenario of overwhelmed hospitals plays out, outside of Wuhan.

So far, it has not.

The mechanisms for us (people everywhere) to begin paying for it is crucial, as there are a number of technologies on the cusp of being useful for tackling this problem, however they are not cheap. Cheap solutions to CO2 are rare and tend to only apply to point sources at best.

Large scale solutions that help mitigate the existing CO2 are going to require some significant capital and operational expenditure.

The cheapest large scale solution actually requires less money, and more legal / willpower. But I’d argue it’s also harder to measure concrete impact and “monetise” oceanic surface iron enrichment. It’s harder to convince people to pay for estimated results even ones based on measurement and science, than results containing physical outputs, like actual solid/liquid/gaseous CO2.
Forgot it was them who did it, thanks for reminding me.
I might be a minority, but I always considered plot of original Star Wars extremely underwhelming and the only interesting parts of all movies when I was a kid were space flight/another planets and sci-fi action scenes like X-wing vs Tie fighter battles, speeder bike chase, taking down star destroyer, the destruction of a planet by Death Star and lightsaber fights. The rest was just a boring filler. I frankly see no point in Star Wars these days as computer games are way more elaborate (e.g. Mass Effect, Elite, Prey, Borderlands Pre-sequel etc.), both in story and technical arrangement.

I also remember some original Star Wars actors despised the movies, doing them only for money, and then were surprised by the popularity and disgusted by the fact those movies represented their "life's work" they were best known for.
One of the problems I see with CO2 sequestration is that it will be a nice way for companies to suck at the teat of taxpayers the world over.

I'm sure Halliburton-like companies have a 3 step plan to be right at the front of the money firehose when governments are forced to reduce CO2 or face even bigger costs (both financially and politically) in the coming decades.
