I have no clue what will happen in the next 10 years.

Hydrogen Fuel Cells seem like a marginal solution - it can make sense in some situations. For example the military loves it because they can make electricity without the noise of a generator.

Fuel Cells could make sense for some transportation problems, but they never will for other problems.

H2 gas will always have problems with pressure, containment, embrittlement, and conversion/production costs.

However, be on the lookout for other storage mediums, some of which are mentioned by other comments - Aluminum Hydride (Alane), Methane, Ammonia.

In fact, look out for anything that can take excess electricity from renewables and store it. Aluminum Air batteries for instance.

It lasts for days in the lower troposphere but years in the stratosphere. And kg for kg, H2O is a much stronger Greenhouse gas than CO2, so the long-term averaged effect is on the same order as CO2 (maybe higher, depending on conditions).

And sure, I guess you could argue lithium-air is a type of fuel cell (or that hydrogen fuel cells are a kind of inefficient battery), however lithium-air is much more energy dense (volumetrically) than hydrogen-air and both the "fuel" and the "exhaust" are solid and stay in the battery, which has operational advantages. (Although to be completely fair, hydrogen fuel cells are high TRL whereas lithium-air is still lab scale at best.)
Also very good points.

I'll admit I'm not up to speed with a lot of CSS, myself. I'll definitely be looking into how to better use columns.

While I think frameworks can be helpful to keeping a standard look and feel to the web, I would definitely agree that they're often used as a crutch.

What? That's the exact opposite effect that happens with wide columns. With a wide column, your eyes have to scan all the way left to right. With a narrow column, you don't have to scan as much.

Also the largest "adult" books (non-textbooks) that I have take up about 1/5 of my 43" 4k monitors screen. If you aren't adding a healthy text margin, my eyes have to scan left to right twice as much as with a book. If you want to talk about novels - my screen is 8 times as wide as them, so they are naturally using much narrower columns than most websites.
I don’t think so, because section 230 can be genuinely used for pretty nasty stuff (eg forums for targeted harassment where moderators and management do not participate but do moderate).
I'm not sure if it's a legal requirement, but YouTube has the rule that once a channel gets 3 DMCA takedowns (without counter notification) within 90 days, it will suspend the channel. Such a warning is usually referred to as a copyright strike (not to be confused with a copyright claim or a community guidelines strike).

One difference between the Google index and YouTube is that links in the Google index can be service providers like YouTube, while the owner of a YouTube channel is always the one responsible for the content.

Something notable that happened here is that instead of bundling the 5 videos in 1 DMCA takedown resulting in 1 strike, the party sent 5 separate DMCA takedowns causing 5 strikes.

Is it really worth cluttering the reading space when you can reach search in your browser's bar or just pressing the home button to scroll up instead?

Generally pop-ups are bad design for power users. If there's free space why not have it expanded? Instead add distraction-free-mode when clicking certain keyboard button or shortcut the article is expanded and all of the clutter hidden.

My general wikipedia workflows heavily rely on search, with proposed pop-up redesigns for languages and ToC now I have to do numerous clicks rather than just searching for "Français" and clicking enter if I want the french article.

Finally the article mentioned that there should be width limit and it was always sore thumb of mine - how can something that has 200 characters per line be read efficiently? There should be configurable limit with a more sane default.

Let's be much, much more specific about the counter-point to your counter-point. We have concrete, hard evidence they aren't doing enough to protect their users: they're massively, enormously profitable.

If they were struggling to stay afloat under the weight of that metric crapton of abuse, then maybe I would take that excuse seriously. But they aren't. Every dollar they line their pockets with while allowing their users to be abused is a dollar exploited.
> Strangely enough, not enjoying a daily premium latte might be less frugal in the long run. You'd have to consider the utility of pleasure experienced over the years versus a few extra grand for your coffin.

It adds up faster than you would think: ditching your daily $3 latte saves $91.25 dollars a month. Investing that into a S&P index fund that traditionally has an average 7% annual return and 1.12% variance for over 50 years compounds into... $446,368.
The average age of a vehicle in California is ~12.5 years. So if they stopped selling ICE cars, within 5 years there would be 25% fewer cars on the road...

At that point, the profitability of owning a gas station would go way down and people would start finding better uses for the land. Within 10 years, gas stations would be driven out of bigger cities.

Now people get "range anxiety" thinking about buying EVs, but people can charge an EV cars at home. When gas stations get harder to find, the biggest advantage of owning an ICE car vanishes.

If (and it's a big if), you can't sell new ICE cars, they will be uncommon 10 years later. After 25 years (your 2060 number) it will be difficult to do a road trip without careful planning around for gas stops.
In some ways, direct CO2 capture combined with carbon monoxide fuel (if burned super cleanly) might actually be better than either kerosene or hydrogen for super high altitude flight. The years-long lifetime of air in the stratosphere is small compared to the normal lifetime of CO2 in the atmosphere, so on net would be much better than hydrogen fuel.
Alright, I concede.

I was looking at the English wiktionnary but in the French section of the word which mentions /ka.ʃɛ/. The English section indeed uses /ˈkæʃ.eɪ/.

Sorry to say I can’t recall enough details to find a source, but I read an article once about a man who had been blind since birth, but as an adult was able to have his vision restored surgically.

It was a catastrophe. His brain was like an untrained neural net - the input was there, but he couldn’t make sense of it. He described it as seeing an undifferentiated field of color, where he couldn’t distinguish objects. Blind, he was able to confidently live his life and get around his city (I believe NY but no promises). Sighted, he was terrified to cross the street.

On the other hand, I figure that if there’s a concern that laymen immediately raise, medical researchers are well aware of it as well. If they’re going forward, there’s a reason.

There are cheaper EVs on the market than Teslas.

Nissan Leafs and Toyota Priuses are closer to $30k flat, and the Honda Fit is $16k new.
> $25K gas vehicles or $27K Hybrids represent Toyota, not "vehicles without safety features."

I agree, but I think their point was something along the lines of: gas cars are cheaper, and there are ways to make cars even cheaper than those cars (ex. removing many safety features), so where do you draw the line for how cheap cars should be vs the minimum level of responsibility they should comply with -- safety, environmental, morality, etc.

I'm sure before the government regulated a lot of safety features, had they asked the public if they would want those responsible features forced on them if it was going to drive the base price of cars way up, they too would have said no. But today, it seems absurd in hindsight not to have seat belts, the same way it will probably seem absurd in 35 years that we have minimal environmental regulations in place right now.

That doesn't make it right, but it's an interesting dynamic to think that we've exhausted the low hanging personal safety fruit and now we need to address more environmental safety features.
It requires (although implicitly) that everybody in your family also sign up. And it certainly doesn't sound like a place in which visitors are welcome.

Good luck checking in code that will increase the human burden and reduce automation. Imagine how many TPS reports you would have to fill out to get permission to make a system page a human more often at “Google scale”.

We'd need to seriously advance battery technology to make it better than nuclear in the terms we're talking about here. Batteries require minerals from mining, including strip mining, and that's going to fail the environmental test. Mining involves slave labor, and that's going to fail the humanitarian test. They also have a short lifespan and tend to explode.

Maybe if sodium proves out then batteries will be acceptable. Right now, though, we don't have a viable technology that serves the purpose.

Creepiest thing I've read for a while. Is Alex Danco really condoning founder dishonesty?

If dishonesty is the gateway to Bay Area wealth, forget it. That's selling your soul for money and that's never a good bargain.

> This year problems also was not caused by Climate Change

The abnormally hot and dry summer was absolutely a root cause of the fires.

> if you do not change the forest management you will still have massive fires, and if you do not improve infrastructure maintenance you are still going to have brown outs and black outs in summer

"Forest Management", the classic euphemism for "Aggressive Logging" is at least partially responsible for the explosive spread of the Holiday Farm Fire and many of the fires which have been part of this year's disastrous wild-fires in Oregon. In the Holiday Farm Fire, 76% of the lands burned were previously clear cut, most of it was private forest and heavily logged BLM land. The national forests adjacent which have a far lighter "management" burden, less logging and much more healthy 1st and 2nd growth trees didn't burn near as much. The difference is so stark, the fire line almost ends at the boundary between heavily managed land and the National Forest.
Yeah. If the channel owner has spent so much effort it would be fair to expect actual human to spend literally a minute to verify it is legit removal case.
Maybe having sight in one eye means your brain already "knows" how to process it, and just needs to learn to redirect the input from the other eye to the visual processing center somehow?

this is patently false, frcc assistance is race blind and you only have to be covered by the ballot initiative to qualify. i would be very interested to learn where you have (falsely) heard there is some race based test for assistance that has led you to repeat this (false) claim.

i would add the ballot initiative did not require fines and fees to be paid and this was tacked on by the legislature for the express purpose of continuing to prevent as many of these people as possible from voting.

>He doesn't know what he did wrong

I think it is obvious, he was playing a copyrighted song, as he does in nearly all of his videos.
The way people get around this apparent "shadowban" behavior is by creating a separate legal entity of some form to be the publisher of each app or extension or channel or whatever. It seems that once you are shadowbanned, you are shadowbanned forever. This of course increases the cost of publishing your project, but this is a monopoly we're dealing with and so we have no recourse.
Youtube runs the way it runs because they don't care if a bunch of creators get hosed. All they care about is keeping the copyright wolves at bay.
My point is that DBNull is only an edge case with DB queries. You can avoid ever dealing with it as I've shown or use an ORM like Dapper or Entity Framework that also handle it for you.

Which is why a dentist in Germany can give you only a local anesthesia (i.e. you loose feeling in your mouth area but nothing more).

If you need a full anesthesia you need to go to a dentist clinic which has a anesthesiologist.

I do not. I made it up since I think it could work. Most studies assume the switchgrass will be burned in place of coal (which still helps).

Fermentation might not be a problem, I'm hoping the switchgrass would be harvested when very dry, to cut down on that. Grass for silage, (which ferments) is cut when green, but hay is dry and does not ferment.

Transportation and resources would be something, yes, but if you take a look at what we've built to make use of hydrocarbons, I think we could manage.

The biggest feature I miss from Inbox is the integration of TODOs and emails: you could create editable TODOs in your inbox as easily as composing a new email, and when viewing am email thread, you could create a TODO attached to an email thread (e.g. “review the attached document and reply with my feedback”).

Swing state and flipping is (or can be thought of as) different things. The democrats can possibly win Texas this year, and Beto was fairly close. But if Biden wins Texas the election is already long over, he will have won more than 270 delegates for sure. If you look at the snake chart here: https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/2020-election-forecast/ you can see Texas if 6/7 states away from being the swing state for this election. Currently if Texas goes democratic there is realistically no path for republicans to win a presidential election.

To say it a different way, at some point if the democrats gets popular enough they win every state. That doesn't mean that every state is a swing state, just that people are fed up with that party.

Long term the demographics are not looking good for Texas GOP, based on current voting trends. Most likely the party will adept and come up with new policies to attract different voters. Or you know suppress the vote and rig the elections.

Would methane be an easier fuel to work with than hydrogen? Which is cheaper to produce from electricity? The wikipedia article[1] says methane could be produced from Hydrogen, but I believe there is a process to produce methane from water and CO2 directly.

Hydrogen is a feed stock for green steel production, which isn't commercially developed yet.

There is literally nothing we can do to stop what's going to happen over the next hundred years. Elimination of emissions and massive investment in CO2 capture over the next hundred years might make the next hundred less terrible?

So my philosophy is to try and enjoy what we have as much as I possibly can and vote and support what little change I can.

Sadly, as climate declines, I suspect there will be a negative feedback loop. Economies will decline and the capability & willpower to invest in the future will decline along with the funds needed to improve the world.
