Honestly the shortening buried the fact that it's a cargo flight and made it more shocking/clickbaity - I heard about a plane crashing in Lithuania before I saw your headline so I was aware which crash was being referred to.

Adding " (DHL cargo) " before "crashes" would've fit the title limitations...
I understand where you're coming from but because of Covid and those years, using the shield of 'science' to disallow criticism is a little underhanded. Covid/Vaccines/Lockdowns are on the table of politics for the foreseeable future.

The vaccines worked and saved a lot of lives. There were very rare side effects, and once those were recognized they were addressed in various ways, e.g. by changing the groups that should receive the vaccines.

The part about abortions sounds like a blatant conspiracy theory.

There are some indications that the rules around gain of function research were not followed in some cases. I certainly think that merits investigating and I'm partial towards prohibiting most gain of function research. Doesn't mean publicly attacking Fauci is any reasonable way of doing this.
Not sure why you say 'more accurate'. What you state is what I implied. I hope this was clear.

What removing subsidies do is unleash the potential. Lots of farming communities that live with subsidies are convinced that removing them is a dooms day scenario.

However evidence often doesn't support this. Japan used to protect its market for beef. Then this was forced to be opened by the US. Japan farmer then realized that their specialization was high quality beef. And now Japan is globally famous and exports lots of high quality beef.

Removing subsidies can lead to structural changes and consolidation, but it can also have lots of positive effects.

I highly recommend reading contemporary reporting on what are considered wildly successful aircraft (like the teen series F-14/15/16).

Hint: Just change one number and they're indistinguishable from reporting on the F-35.
The thing is neither climate change nor vaccines are political opinions or views. They are hard scientific facts and you are absolute moron if you try to twist them into political views.

BYD make busses. They have something like a 20% market share in the EU and the number of EV busses in China is mind boggling and was an early sign that China was going to win the EV market:

"After an in-depth review, we’ve identified a number of open issues that have become outdated over time—some for several years."

Everyone adapts to the single most expensive uneven form of local pricing: property prices.

I think there's a very strong case to link grid and generation capacity improvements to local pricing in the effective area, even if it doesn't end up being through the market. Make the link explicit: "if this pylon project is built, we will give everyone in the receiving county 1p/unit off their bill for five years."

It's the most modern jet that can be acquired. The Gripen, Rafale, Typhoon are all very good jets, but they're around half a generation behind; they're still popular and acquired by various countries because they better fit their requirements (or because the US doesn't want to sell them F-35).

The Big 4 are indeed the same everywhere. I'd say most people who are near the treadmill would consider Big4 as prestigious, sure.

But there are multiple levels of prestige in consulting. The mentioned firms, and then McKinsey/Bain/Boston, which are above that level in the hierarchy.
There's little more you can do to validate a name internationally than to provide one textbox and check if it's a valid encoding of Unicode. Maybe you can exclude some control and graphical ranges at best.

Of course there are valid concerns that international names should pass through e.g. local postal services, which would require at least some kind of Latinized representation of name and address. I suppose the Latin alphabet is the most convenient minimal common denominator across writing systems, even though I admit being Euro-centric.
"Leave them until they're outdated" isn't a valid way to deal with issues in my book.
Yes, the mistake was inviting him to be a fellow in the first place. Now he's in, the Society must follow its rules and precedents. At the very least, it shouldn't be seen to expel someone for political opinions or heterodox views on science. Some the of Royal Society's most notable members have had lunatic fringe ideas and they weren't thrown out.
Don't underestimate Bezos's ability to spend money. New Glenn's development has been extremely slow and dull, Blue Origin has never put anything into orbit after nearly 25 years, but despite this they've managed to produce engines that work (evidenced by a single Vulcan launch) and New Glenn may actually fly soon, in the next year or two maybe.

If New Glenn works, with first stage reusability, then Blue Origin could be a few years behind in launching Kuiper as a Starlink competitor. Outside of what's going on in China, Blue Origin is probably the most likely to succeed in competing with SpaceX.

Don't get me wrong, I like RocketLab. But going against SpaceX will be a long race requiring deep pockets that can fund years of unprofitable development.

It's not about that Musk disagrees with her political views, it's that he is being anti-scientific, pushing wrong scientific facts and so on to further his personal agenda, which happens to involve a lot of politics.
To quote him "Whereas previously he seemed to agree with mainstream scientific opinion"
Can someone please explain to me how we managed to get a whole generation of the western scientific thinkers who think the scientific method is consensus of scientific opinion? The author lists Isaac Newton, Hooke, Boyle . All of these prominent minds made scientific breakthroughs that didn't stick to the consensus views of the time.

People interested should look at The Structure of Scientific Revolutions by Kuhn.

To quote from Wikipedia:
Its publication was a landmark event in the history, philosophy, and sociology of science. Kuhn challenged the then prevailing view of progress in science in which scientific progress was viewed as "development-by-accumulation" of accepted facts and theories. Kuhn argued for an episodic model in which periods of conceptual continuity and cumulative progress, referred to as periods of "normal science", were interrupted by periods of revolutionary science.

The only one that directly annoys me is not being able to have threaded comments at the PR level. https://github.com/github/roadmap/issues/552 You can do it with "quoting", which is fine if there are two of you but turns into a mess if there's more than that.

They've said that they're watching the discussions for feedback, so I hope they listen and implement that one.

Happy that they are being transparent (rather than letting the issues rot), annoyed that they appear to be prioritising marginally useful AI stuff for basic UX.

Are they? They are objecting Musk posting provably wrong statements on social media, arguing that as a fellow of the RS he shouldn't do that - the statements are on a variety of topics, not just Fauci.
Yes. I built a tool for that a few months ago: https://github.com/simonw/fetch-github-issues

I have it running in one of my repos using a GitHub Action that's triggered when an issue is created or updated - it commits a JSON export of that issue back to the repo.

Then I can git clone the repo and get all of the issues data.
You seem to have a lot of creativity in your judgements as none of this follows from his comment.
The full quote:

> Although most Fellows are elected on the basis of their scientific contributions, others are nominated on the basis of "wider contributions to science, engineering or medicine through leadership, organisation, scholarship or communication". [Italics in original.]

But yes, you hit the nail on the head about Musk being within their supposed scope, but a disastrously bad fit for their org. Making him a Fellow (back in 2018) was a self-serving idiot move by the Society. And now the Wages of Dim are adding up.
>There was no coup d'état.

Yes, there was.
If so, why would one automatically assume Musk has the bad advice and the rest of them have good advice? It's awfully ironic as science is literally the process of demonstrating the widely-accepted wisdom (preeminent theory) wrong.

Do you want to take a risk of going down the history as the society who estranged Galileo? Even the haters secretly know that the likelihood of Musk being remembered in history books is higher than a random FRS. In fact, that's likely why they are jealous and eager to write such letters.
How is criticizing a particular politician [1] "antivaxx"? This intentional conflation of scientific "truth" [2] with the particular policies that a democratic government decides to implement was one of the most blatantly bad faith phenomena of the pandemic. Even if we had an oracle that could have given us perfect future predictions, it would still not be able to answer the ethical questions of which path to choose. That's for the people to decide

And punishing people for disputing the current "truth", and criticizing sacred cows, would go directly against the RS's principles. "Nullius in verba"

[1] Yes, he is one

[2] A notion which itself goes against the principles of scientific inquiry

What _is_ a fraction to you? How do you visualize it? I didn't calculate to decimal to compare the size of those fractions (I couldn't tell you intuitively if 5/7 is more than 9/13, I would have to convert the denominator or calculate the decimal).

For me, a progress bar or a pizza is the default. And because I cook rice daily and we were talking volume, my "progress bar" was like a measuring cup. Mentally, I can stand two measuring cups next one another, and filling one of two parts is less than filling two of three parts.

Maybe there are ways to be more aware of or insert ways to force the use of fractions in physical space. More cooking, more building, etc. The more comfortable you get the more intuition you should build

Because you don't want to ever store bad data. There's not point to that, it will just create annoying situations and potential security risks. And the best place to catch bad data is when the user is still present so they can be made aware of the issue (in case they care and are able to solve it). Once they're gone, it becomes nearly impossible and/or very expensive to check what they meant.

My laser projector is crystal clear, colorful, bright and the fan never kicks on. It can do 4K/60Hz or 1080p/240Hz. Highly recommend. I have a 120" gray screen a couple meters away and I code on it all the time.

Nowadays it's even easier with the wealth of ultra short throw projectors on the market, if you have the budget. Personally I got an open-box long-throw projector for half-off at $1500, plus a $500 mid-budget screen. Definitely worth the investment.
Key to note that the cookie banner fiasco wasn't GDPR, it was a separate policy that should be changed.
Any educational “system” strongly selects for conformity. A student can’t question the system or they’ll be sidelined early on and failed for giving the “wrong” answer. Geniuses are almost by definition weirdos who question the status quo. Yet most would get eliminated by the current educational system and it’s by-product of elites. That’s why true geniuses like Elon Musk somewhat ironically choose to rally the uneducated, not because he is intellectually aligned with them, but only because they allow much greater freedom to not conform. The truly intelligent shun intelligentsia.

The data you present again doesn't take the lifecycle into account. Also worth pointing out that protein bioavailability and amino acid profiles are ignored.

Unrelated but since you brought the topic up, it would of course make sense that releasing vast amounts of CO2 into the atmosphere that took millions of years to bind into the earth in mere decades might be a bad idea. Then again, we're only guessing there as well. We have no clue if the world will be better or worse for us to live in 50 years, and how much of it will be attributable to CO2.

But I digress -- this comment thread was about cow farts and the utter silliness of grasping at such straws when speaking about an otherwise serious subject like the futures of our children.
Nah, companies don't want to implement it as it's bad for their business model so they feign ignorance.

I still remember being at an all hands at a former employer where the team presenting the revised cookie banners promoted as a benefit that it had opt in rates that would make an authoritarian dictator embarrassed to claim as uninfluenced

The thing is, the last part does not just explain the joke, it is a very angry rant, and it ruins it for me because of the change of tone.

Imagine in real life, someone starts making a joke, and then suddenly starts cursing and yelling. I wouldn't be comfortable with what feels like a lack of self-control and I will try to move away before things get violent.

Either do the "joke" style or the "angry rant" style, not both. The joke can be explained calmly if there is a need to.

look at the trend lines of co2 emissions per capita for countries. You might find it interesting.

heck, even just look at co2 emissions per capita NOW. we arent talking about a high and mighty high emissions population dictating down to countries with low emissions that they should reduce. We're talking about china with more emissions PER CAPITA than europe, and every individual country in europe. Many developing countries are worse than pretty much every european country. Libya, iran, malaysia, all worse than every country in europe.

Europes emissions are going down over time. Chinas are going up - in an exponential curve.

this is the point where people deflect and claim "oh, but those countries manufacture stuff the west uses, it's their fault"

It's really not. A big part of the reason they manufacture those things and the west doesnt is because the west actually bothers to hold up any kind of environmental laws at all, driving companies away

It's what happens when someone realizes some useful construct could be treated as first-class citizen[0] in the financial sense.

Much like in modern programming languages[1], you can "hold a function in your hands" - pass it as value and return it and assign to variables, in finance someone notices, "hey, this thing can be packaged up like an asset and sold/leased/leveraged". Here, someone figures a business model - "I have a patent, patent trolls make money threatening people with patents -- hey, let me lend them my patent and ask for a cut!".

For some reason, in programming this leads to good thing; in the economy, it leads to bad things.

Just wait for when someone figures out how to make securities out of loaned patents and then package them up into bulk-tradeable assets.
