Arguments that meat take an excessive amount of resources are disingenuous because those resources cannot simply be translated to other uses, examples being that the water use example many tout uses rainwater would fall anyways, that livestock will eventually urinate meaning it isn't actually lost, and land used for livestock is mostly non arable land and therefore cant be used for producing crops anyways. Also there is a relationship between livestock, agriculture and human society where they all are able to use resources that each other cant, or provide benefit to each other. For example a huge amount of agriculture fertilizer comes from manure, and a huge amount of livestock feed comes from agricultural waste. Without livestock we now have to get fertilizer elsewhere, and all the byproducts that would become animal feed becomes waste.

In the grand scheme of things livestock produce an insignificant amount of ghg and that if all Americans stopped consuming beef, it would reduce the nations ghg emissions by ~2.5%, whereas transportation, power generation and construction contribute to the overwhelming amount of emissions (~80%).

If you want to look at reducing emissions from food, it is much easier to look at food waste, where ~40% of food in the US is wasted, and of that roughly 80% is produce like fruits, vegetables, tubers etc, meaning that even if there was a transformation to a purely vegan population, food waste would probably increase.

>" UNITED NATIONS (AP) _ A senior U.N. environmental official says entire nations could be wiped off the face of the Earth by rising sea levels if the global warming trend is not reversed by the year 2000. Coastal flooding and crop failures would create an exodus of ″eco- refugees,′ ′ threatening political chaos, said Noel Brown, director of the New York office of the U.N. Environment Program, or UNEP. He said governments have a 10-year window of opportunity to solve the greenhouse effect before it goes beyond human control...Coastal regions will be inundated; one-sixth of Bangladesh could be flooded, displacing a fourth of its 90 million people. A fifth of Egypt’s arable land in the Nile Delta would be flooded...UNEP is working toward forming a scientific plan of action by the end of 1990, and the adoption of a global climate treaty by 1992...

> The simplest way to cut beef output is for people to eat other animals instead, or become vegetarians.

That’s like, in 1900, saying “the simplest way to prevent road deaths is for everyone to drive slower.” That’s not simple at all - that’s an intractable group behavior problem. What you really need is for the government to come along and put up speed limits. Most people will push those rules, a few will flout them, but things will be better.

So let’s have a carbon tax that includes all sources of greenhouse gas, including domesticated animals, and stop passing moral judgement on people who are stressed enough as it is figuring out how to navigate our challenging world.
We have to simultaneously lower emissions in all sectors if we want to prevent catastrophic warming. 10% is massive.
Transportation and cooling of meat in particular is nothing compared to the land area of North America and South America combined that we devote to growing crops to feed livestock.

Sometimes those historically best practices become outdated but clung onto as doctrine by programmers who let experience get in the way of evolution.

What may have been true 10 years ago may no longer be accurate or important but is still held up as a best practice today.

If allowed to evolve then we are all good but finding the correct speed of evolution (and helping everyone evolve at a similar speed) is harder than ideal. Flip-side of that is the organization or programmer that blindly chases the new.

I grew up on a 10 acre block in the country, most of which we rented to a local farmer who put cattle on it, and it was great. It's interesting to compare and contrast with cottagecore, which emphasises cosiness, because the thing I liked most was having space.

Want to make a desk? All it takes is asking your dad if you can tidy up the garage a bit and finding some cheap wood. Want to plant some apricots? There's space out back near the veggie garden. Want to learn to drive? You've got a big paddock and the farmer you rent it to doesn't mind as long as you take care near his cattle. Want to build a hut and take photos for a school project? Sure, go down to the windbreak and look for sticks, just take a snakebite bandage with you.

The labour involved in keeping a modern rural property going isn't impossible to sustain, and there are a lot of tangible benefits, particularly if you've got kids. You can even pick a few old-timey hobbies like spinning or making jam if you want. You don't have to go all-in on living at an 1800s technology level.

As someone who was early in both crypto and NFTs, I really don't get the hate from the crypto community especially. They are a powerful tool for artists and creators to manage their works, especially digital artists who could never control their art before. They can and do manage commercial and IP rights, artist royalties, help self-organize DAOs and other efforts, and assure the authenticity and provenance with a categorical shift in confidence which could never be done before. They will and are changing and improving our digital world such that it will never be the same, just as crypto has.

Spreading disinformation can be done without any ill intent. The source is trying to willfully manipulate people, but the person who spreads it is just a forwarding agent.
I like to think about NFT as an easy method of buying art from artists. There are many platforms for this with classical purchase mechanics, but as an artist myself, I love the idea of an auction-based platform for this era of digital art.

Right now, there are no mechanism for extraordinary digital artists to make their art expensive like IRL art. The best thing is you can do commissions for people, but it's hard for them to maintain their rights (both for artist and customer).

Maybe NFT will be more prominent with some "data registry" between platforms to make it global to check your rights on items, and great artists can sell their art for a more reasonable price.
For now, IRL art is like a "club for friends," and digital artists are not taken as seriously as they, even when digital one draw some almost masterpieces and spent 3-6 months on every item.

If it indirectly triggers nuclear war, it's plausible. Even just India vs Pakistan will lead to about a billion starvation deaths due to crop failures around the world as an externality. We were close to nuclear war in the 20th century despite no exogenous disturbances. What do you think will happen when there's mass migration and other stresses on the global order?
While I can appreciate that, let me rephrase my post:

There's a way of asking a question without being a total dick, and then there's your way.

Being direct doesn't mean being an asshat. I have plenty of experience of doing it the wrong way, and yes, I'm suggesting yours is not the right way.

Edit: "I'm sure it's in the budget."

Actually, I'm guessing this would be covered in the liability insurance. So it's probably a much smaller line item in the budget than you are so dramatically inferring it to be.
Ideally it would be an accurate reflection of all externalities in the final price, but how about we do not try to prevent tackling one of the externalities with whataboutism on other externalities.

The point of Signal is supposed to be that to the best of our knowledge, even if all its packets are run through FSB and NSA, and even if they captured all Signal employees at once and somehow forced them all to cooperate, your messages should still be safe until they manage to push an app update that compromises the app.

Of course this only helps as long as your device isn't backdoored but that is true for any app.

If the carbon is much higher today, then could the conclusion be that they are not the factor, or that they are beneficial? Heres some stats, many factors make up the efficiency, but as plants are carbon sinks, it would be a bold claim to make that it has not helped crop yields. https://www.farmprogress.com/equipment/eight-major-factors-h...

Localized effects are easier to calculate, but there are many factor. For example soybeans grow better under less sunlight, so the effect of a darker sky is higher yields. You are correct that is isn't a single effect its very dynamic and has many effects.

1. https://www.epsilontheory.com/gell-mann-amnesia/

“Briefly stated, the Gell-Mann Amnesia effect is as follows. You open the newspaper to an article on some subject you know well. In Murray’s case, physics. In mine, show business. You read the article and see the journalist has absolutely no understanding of either the facts or the issues. Often, the article is so wrong it actually presents the story backward—reversing cause and effect. I call these the “wet streets cause rain” stories. Paper’s full of them.

In any case, you read with exasperation or amusement the multiple errors in a story, and then turn the page to national or international affairs, and read as if the rest of the newspaper was somehow more accurate about Palestine than the baloney you just read. You turn the page, and forget what you know.”

You misread the article. Climate change will cause those problems, but not by the year 2000. Carbon emissions have very long term effects that are hard to reverse. Twenty years ago we had already emitted enough CO2 to cause dramatic changes over the next couple of generations. That's why all IPCC scenarios with tolerable warming nowadays include magical atmospheric carbon scrubbing technology.

"There are an infinite number of potential NFTs. "

There are an infinite number of made up currencies as well.

Because neither of them function as a currency then they are the same thing, the difference being, with NFT's you own some 'art' or something like that, with Crypto you own a 'number'.

The 'potential usefulness' of Crypto makes it feel like it has more material merit, but in practice, they're not useful (not yet), so they might as well be NFTs.

There are no Crypto models today that make sense in any real systematic way, other than some governments reasonable attempts to be more digital, which comes wit a bunch of scary caveats as well.

Currency is a form of social credit that is fundamentally tied to the economy in which it is used as a means of transaction, there is no escaping that reality. We can't just magically make up some thing that is independent of that underlying reality.

If we could merely overcome the kludigness of banks, and the transnational cost of VISA - and make something a little more easily internationalized ... those things would help, but those probably are going to have to be a function of 'good governance'. Maybe the experiments in New Zealand and Sweden etc. will pay off if they can find something that works, that can be expanded upon.

Global cooling was never a majority opinion among climate scientists. It existed almost exclusively in popsci magazines.
A different and perhaps clearer way of putting what you're both getting at is flavor is not fungible. But more importantly when we're talking about changes in food production is sustenance is fungible. (This of course ignores a whole bunch of nuance such as flavor not encompassing the experience of eating and mere sustenance not including important nutritional discussion on diet)

It's important to determine which of those two things you're discussing and trying to maintain parity with in attempts to improve on the infrastructure we have built, both have very different and unique problems.
A friends company that was able to buy two /24s under $2K each and get them pretty quick.

When I signed up for a new data center internet connection, both my ISPs charged me something like $25/month for a /24.

IPv4 addresses are still relatively cheap to get.
Is it negligible that transportation of fresh meat, its cooling or freezing are not at all factors in carbon production? I would like to see how its calculated.
Except that they don't, and still rely on experts to give any kind of authenticity. NFTs are like the serial numbers on dollar bills - if the dollar is genuine, then that serial number is unique, but the serial number itself doesn't prove that the dollar is genuine.

I've lived in cities all my life and had pretty similar experiences to be honest. I thought it was from opting to live in older buildings with 'character,' so one lease i went with the isocube and that was hell. My one neighbor played drum and bass music all day and it went right through the walls like paper. The other neighbor would sit there for hours every day on the balcony calling everyone they know and airing out the latest drama of the day on speakerphone. You could hear everything from the hall right through the front door, every door slam, every step, every dog bark, every time the elevator went ding. I even tried sealing the doorjam at one point with new weather strip when I was particularly desperate but it was no use. I thought maybe this was a lemon apartment so I asked all my friends in similar new construction looking places, and it was the same story with the thin walls and doors and borderline evil property management companies. Ended up lucking out with a new place where I don't have anyone above me, no shared heavily trafficked hallway outside my door, and the neighbors are churchmice. Don't think I'm gonna be stepping back into the unknown for a while.

How? Your Twitter profile picture is an image. What stops me from saving your profile and setting mine to the same thing?

Are you suggesting Twitter validates that a Twitter account owns an NFT and shows a check/badge/whatever? I also don't think that works. Whatever rare NFT you have I can go make a visually identical NFT for <minimum cost of an NFT> and confirm that I own that NFT.

I often think that I must be missing something about NFTs because they seem breathtakingly stupid. But, I've yet to find out what I don't understand about them.
The opposite is also true... the "worst practices" or "never do this" are often the best-fit solution.
Great story; I don't buy it. I haven't purchased a commercial-grade router (for values of more than just 'Cisco' or 'Juniper') that couldn't support IPv6 (admittedly for better and worse levels of 'support') since the early 2000s. If Amazon wanted them, they would have been supplied. Maybe it's "no one can supply routers with the IPv6 support we want (snowflake emoji)" or "we can't deploy the routers fast enough operationally". But not enough v6 capable routers is a stretch.

And even so...this anecdote is/was 'many years after the fact', so what's the issue now? Easy: they don't need it enough to spend the money to operationalize it.
10% is a smaller part of total emissions than transportation or electricity generation, but it's still pretty significant chunk. If we can reduce emissions related to beef somehow that would be a step forward.

I'm skeptical of that Dearman engine article. It doesn't really explain where the energy comes from. We already know how to do carbon neutral energy and transportation: use solar/wind/hydroelectric/nuclear and battery-electric vehicles. It's just that the infrastructure is expensive and takes time to build. It's also not treated as an urgent priority in many countries. Some because they can't afford it, and some (i.e. the United States) our political system makes it very easy for a minority to block things.
