Degrowthers have a third argument that is a bit stronger than the two Noah debunks:

The charts showing that the US is consuming less resources as time goes on suggests the US is not growing. The financial shenanigans have decoupled the official statistics from reality.

There is a reason everyone is getting all stressed and politics are getting tenser - once growth stops, politics becomes about how to divide up a fixed pie.
HISTORY is humans and groups pulling the strings. I've certainly had the impression that there are humans/groups pulling the strings to try and derail the US pandemic response into useless and/or actively damaging directions, from hydroxychloroquine to bleach. Horse paste is particularly well chosen here as it can be procured in farm-animal dosages, allowing for panicked people to poison themselves on a grand scale. And since it's a veterinary medicine, it's less likely to have people bounce off the suggestion than say, bleach.

This does imply that (a) an outside influence is involved, such as for instance the idea that Russia manipulated the election for the benefit of Donald Trump against other perhaps more capable Democrats and Republicans, and (b) that in so doing, Russia did not REALLY want to make a US political faction powerful and healthy, and encouraging bizarre and ineffective 'takes' on pandemic response is in line with what Russia really wants through use of their social media manipulation techniques, which are pretty well documented at this stage and depend on cooperation from US tech giants such as Facebook, sometimes through intermediaries, sometimes not even.

If this seems contentious, I'm interested in which clause is the issue: I've seen a lot of self-interested denial in the very concept of Russia paying Facebook etc. through Cambridge Analytica and so on, to run marketing campaigns with very detailed feedback on effectiveness (this is a social media innovation on par with the invention of radio: the value of microtargeting demographics CANNOT be underestimated). Denying clause A is common, though it seems insane.

What would be more interesting is acknowledging A but denying B: in other words, the position that yes, there are massive covert PR campaigns going on to push these things, to your 'Maga cultists' and anyone else who will listen (there are a LOT of weird left-wingers who eat this stuff right up, just as susceptible to the paranoid tropes), but instead of being suspicious, the reaction is to automatically trust the mysterious sources all the more, because strange people want you to eat veterinary medicine for your own good, protection, and eventual great power…
From TFA: " For example, China now produces more CO2 emissions than the U.S., the EU, and Japan combined... (And no, this is not because of outsourcing, as you can see by looking at the trade-adjusted emissions numbers.)" Link to: https://ourworldindata.org/consumption-based-co2

In particular, from that page, consumption-based CO2 emissions of the US have gone down since 2007.
The trick is just what you see in the article: focus on country-level data where direct consumption of certain resources are going down while GDP goes up, and claim without evidence that this is possible for all countries.
> This can be applied to any industry, so exponential growth is indeed possible.

Such growth is anything but exponential. In fact, it's logarithmic.
Credit Repair
I tried getting my credit fixed working with different Credit repair specialists but None of them seemed to work out perfectly like they said to me , I was down and kept it to myelf ,one of my closest friend noticed that i had something bothering me all this while so she asked me what was wrong , at first i wanted to keep it all to myself fbut at that point It was too much on me so i had to open up to her and it turned out that she had the solution because she has been through the same thing , she introduced me to thiis credit repair company that helped her get rid of the negatives she had on her credit and i didn't hesitate to contact them and they took down all negatives on my credit and revived my credit back .. at that point I was very excited and the best part is that It's permanent , It's been over a year now and nothing has changed ...

Ask HN: What small tools/utils I can build with Haskell?
I am new to FP and learning Haskell via "Programming in Haskell". I've reached the half way mark in the book and been doing all the exercises religiously. However, at this point I find myself loosing interest and think it would be better if I build some interesting[small] project where I can apply the concepts I've learned.
I'd like to point out this is not about increased range, for example, if the ECU already works at 95% efficiency, that's not a very high number for brushless ECU, just for example, so 5% of energy is wasted, if we can reduce that in half, the efficiency will only increase to 97.5%, that's a very small improvement on range. BUT, now the ECU only needs to dissipate half wasted heat, this could be a big net win.

A more close to everyday life example would be chargers for notebooks, we now have smaller chargers thanks to GaN FETs, SiC is like GaN.
It's a bit the same here - the kobo is still a normal functioning Kobo. Only the kernel has to change to allow USB OTG mode, and you can switch between custom and stock one. By the way, the libs I used here works on remarkable too, so it's just a matter of compiling the software and finding a matching kernel.
There are a lot of factors we do not know here: I was an investor in a small restaurant as I wanted to keep it open after the owners quit. Upping anything on the menu $1 would've killed the business dead because all surrounding restaurants where already cheaper, but we had better cooks, however people are frugal or poor or both and they were not that much better to make the difference that much bigger. We still ran at incredibly thin margins: amounts that seems weird to me as an IT guy. It depends: depending on your location (both country and inside that country) it can very well be that you cannot up your prices even a cent or people won't come back. We had that with beer: our neighbour's restaurant upped the price of a bottle of beer with 10cts and suddenly all the regulars came to drink at ours and eat at theirs (cheaper).

A pizza place in the center of a popular city with high ratings probably can up the prices.

I forgot the space shuttle was also dubbed a flying/gliding brick
I really enjoy reading this type of article because it automatically assumes that we are facing a choice of action. As if nature is going to just politely sit around and wait for us to discuss and plan optimised futures which are politically acceptable. Unfortunately, judging by the current massive ramp up in catastrophic climate impacts, this is unlikely to be an option. Instead it looks as though we'll be spending a considerable amount of time fire-fighting (pun intended) with increasingly desperate intensity until the whole stack of cards collapses on itself. Such a shame that we let things get to this state.

Ask HN: How do you fill copies of the same PDF with Excel data?
The charging port placement is cited as the dumbest decision made in the Apple mouse's design, but I don't think it is that bad. The battery life is measured in months. The charging time from 0 to 100 is about an hour. It's simply not an issue. When my laptop warns me that only 10% is left, I can comfortably go another week before it shuts off.

The main issue with the mouse is everything else. It is uncomfortable to hold, painful to move around, awkward to click and do the gestures. The sensor is worse than a generic $10 mouse you can get off Amazon. It misses the first couple of clicks every morning.

Horrible, horrible mouse. But not because of the charging port, that's ok.
I'll give you one example which I find pretty convincing:

Take aviation. You can make aviation green by using hydrogen (on medium distances), batteries (on short distances) or efuels (everywhere, it's basically kerosene, but made with renewable electricity). Ok, great.

Now there's an EU research project that has run some numbers. Note that this project happened in collaboration with aviation companies, it's unlikely to paint a particularly pessimistic picture. Page 44 here:
https://www.cleansky.eu/sites/default/files/inline-files/202...

Their calculation is that you need between 21 and 32 Petawatthours per year to green aviation (depending on how optimistic you are about hydrogen-based aviation). That is around the same as the total amount of electricity the world uses today (all electricity, not just green electricity).

They assume a 4 percent growth rate for aviation, which is in line with what aviation organizations expect.

I have trouble imagining that this is realistic. Like: I'm pretty optimistic about renewable energy. But I just don't think it's very plausible to say: "We'll make all our electricity green, and then we'll add the same amount in green electricity just for aviation, and oh, we'll probably do the same for a bunch of other industry sectors that will need similar amounts" (there are studies with similar numbers e.g. for the chemical industry). Like I just don't think it's plausible to green all electricity and then grow the electricity sector by something like 500% in a short amount of time.

And when you come to the conclusion that this is not realistic you should start to wonder if you should really assume that aviation will just continue to grow and grow. (And the same is pretty much true for a lot of sectors where greening is not impossible, but challenging.)
Not entirely true.

It really doesn’t matter if whatever is created is better or just more of the same.

New things will require more things.

I highly recommend reading Rich Gold’s excellent book The Plenitude:

https://mitpress.mit.edu/books/plenitude
I had a 10-years old Philips shaver that did exactly this. My new Braun one instead works while charging, but it's probably not advertised as waterproof (even if it's mostly waterproof, or at least I've been lucky so far).
> if the entire site was nuked tomorrow humanity would have lost absolutely nothing of value

We would probably gain some value.
Mousii
Ah yeah. I've bought some random aluminium BT mouse, it the charge port is on the front therefore the mouse can be used while charging as a USB mouse without any problem.

I also have an old Philips electric shaver. When the battery dies in the middle of a shave (obviously that's always while in use that the battery dies, unless you shave only twice a year), I can plug it in and use it while plugged no problem.

So I have a simple solution for OP: choose different brands.
Problem is that it's almost impossible to buy a (non-waterproof) rechargeable shaver that also works when plugged. In my typical usage case, shaving less than once per month, I have to wait a few hours every single time I want to use it!
Maybe, I have a degree in economics, but I’m a software developer and not an economist. I’d say that if innovations are built on top of other innovations and if we get occasional breakthroughs, the process may be approximated with an exponential. Otherwise, even logarithmic growth tends to infinity, not to de-growth.

> The charging time from 0 to 100 is about an hour. It's simply not an issue. When my laptop warns me that only 10% is left, I can comfortably go another week before it shuts off.

But then you might have something urgent to do and cannot stop using the mouse. Then...you forget about recharging. Rinse and repeat, until you get at 0%. I know it's not a big deal but it would not have been a big deal either allowing the mouse to work and recharge via USB at the same time by not putting the port beneath it.
You're correct that SiC is for medium to high voltage. But there's also GaN, which is for low to medium voltage, and already works in the millivolt range. Both GaN and SiC will have wider ranges in the future as the technology continues to improve.
Interesting. That's 0.20$/W on launch costs, what is actually not a showstopper.

I still doubt it will happen any time soon, because by the time we have enough launch capacity to use on things like this, the 0.2$/W will be a sizeable fraction of the costs of solar on the ground. The advantage is that you don't need batteries, but like photovoltaics, the floor on the costs of batteries is very low.

Very cool, but a pretty worrying acceleration of fuel consumption for transit by the world’s rich. A Falcon 9 uses ~75,000 (depending on payload) gallons of RP-1, which is a type of kerosine. Meanwhile a LA to NYC flight takes roughly 5,000 gallons of kerosene (depending on direction). There’s obviously a sizable difference between the number of people in a typical cross country flight and in a Dragon crewed vehicle.

Our usage of fuel for regular jet travel is already becoming A Problem. Making it easier to burn more fuel for fewer people to travel faster is emphatically not what we need right now.

I have heard back from our privacy team and I’d love to share their responce to your query:

Thanks for reaching out to us about the recent bill in Australia. We love that our customers care about their digital rights and want to find out more about how companies are looking after their information.

Your data is held in datacentres in the US, but we require all requests for access to customer content to be served through Australia where our company is headquartered.

The police can't intercept, access or modify your messages without us receiving a warrant, and we take our duty of care seriously. Fastmail responds to well formed warrants only and challenges requests for access that are inappropriate, either in scope (not adequately targeted), or depth (asking for information that seems out of proportion to what's being investigated). We will continue to do so, for any legislation that applies to us both now and in the future.

The new bill still doesn't allow 'trawling' for suspicious data: they can't request access to a wide variety of accounts hoping they'll come across something of interest. They need to have a particular account under suspicion and something that gives them grounds for that suspicion, and the offence in question needs to be suitably severe to be worth the intrusion.

Where we are permitted under a warrant, we will notify the accountholder of the access request, and due to our existing measures to help customers stay aware of any hackers compromising their account, police can't also enter your account without leaving evidence you can see.

What this means for you: Fastmail remains a privacy-first provider. We will comply with our legislated duties, while taking care to ensure that we do not act unless compelled by law and that all legislated preconditions have been properly satisfied. Your data remains under your control and you can rest comfortably knowing that your account won't get caught up in a surveillance net.

Please let me know if you have any other questions.
Sincerely,

```

Fundamentally there isn't any exponential growth and has never been any. And it would violate the laws of thermodynamics.

We have S curves. Lots of them. We're seeing the slowdown of the semiconductor industry S curve now. But we get new S curves in the beginning phases all the time. That's why we keep having so great growth.

But de-growth is just a weird concept. Why would we need it? What does it even mean? Would we burn all the books so we become ignorant about technology? I hope not!

For us specifically they blocked the server from downloading more assumedly dangerous tools. Blocked more privilege escalation and blocked crypto mining software from running.

Our teams were also able to do a “network isolation” and essentially bring the server offline quickly, without touching more pieces and possibly exposing our credentials or tokens.

We also had the paid Overwatch protection which is Crowdstrikes 24/7 security monitoring solution which resulted in an actual person emailing half our team at 1am letting us know this was happening and their recommended remediation steps.
Some (a lot?) of economic activity seems to be self-serving, not making our lives better (and sometimes making them worse). The lockdowns demonstrated that very well. For example: social media (doesn't add anything beneficial, makes us less social); 'influencers'; a good chunk of the hospitality industry; anything to do with crypto.

Very often, free alternatives / those not involving 3rd parties, simpler living, are better for us overall. But if more expensive options are available, we are pressured to take them so that we are not left behind / feel like we fit in / have a social life.

Also, at some point certain things are just 'good enough', and marginal improvements require a ton of effort but don't make life better. For example, mobile phones - an 8 year old phone would work just fine, if not for forced obsoletion. Yet tons of effort go into very marginal improvements, because if you don't do it, your competitors will.
Are you yet another GTP-3 bot? Because that's incoherent, irrelevant, uninteresting, and totally misses the point.

I have so many inventions that I don’t have enough time to tell you about them all.

I’ll just mention a few of them.

I built a ten-million-mile-long Interdimensional Space Engine, powered by a Zipper Motor, which could travel at the speed of light, but I accidentally left it in reverse, and it has been going backward ever since, heading toward the Big Bang.

I invented the Infinitly-Tunable Infrasonic-To-Ultrasonic Reverberation Transmogrification Oscillation Oscillator, but I couldn’t get it to work properly.

I made the Jell-O-Matic Snackinator, but I couldn’t get it to work.

I invented the Roto-Rooter-Hog-Trough-Ammo-Dispenser, but it went bankrupt.

I invented the Poopy-Pam-Powder-Packet Pest Powder, but it didn’t work.

In a simulated test of the robot-run brothel, the robot-prostitutes had to satisfy the robot-customers without the help of the robot-pimps. It worked fantastically, and the results were published in the Journal of Robot Whores.

I built an Interplanetary Ice-Cream Maker that was so powerful it froze the sun, and the sun emitted an ice-cream cone that promptly landed in my mouth.

I constructed a city so large that it broke the Minsky Barrier, and had to be abandoned for the sake of the universe.

I had to be the one to create the SimCity religion, and the Sims still think of me as their god even though I do not control them.
