Do the size of the system need to be that much larger for 95C compare to 100C ? In my understanding the post talk about methods that do not involve pressure. On top of that if you want more heat you m…

By reducing the workload, eg. using lower resolution video

This method has the drawback to loose energy (with heat!) to convert motion (windmill) to electricity, and then electricity back to motion (heat pump stator). This post talks about the idea of mechan…

> Combine a solar panel or a wind turbine with a heat pump Two studies did that and mechanical heat pumps win. Here’s the links from the blog post: https://elib.dlr.de/103317/1…

> seals Are they also required bellow boiling temp ? You probably don’t need much more than 55C at home. Increase the temp to store more energy and use a thermal expending socket to stop heat prod…

Have you considered “git gui” or “git branch -a” ?

The link is still there but is black so you can’t see it. Do you have in mind changing this link color ? Then you may add a css stylesheet to HN, depending on your browser there’s extensions to do tha…

I didn’t understand English at real speed either during my first years of learning. There’s a moment you easily understand all words in a conversation but it still require a bit subconscious effort so…

It already knows ;)

From NG for kids: > Forests contain much of the world’s terrestrial biodiversity, including insects, birds, and mammals https://education.nationalgeographic.org/resource/five-m…

Terrifying, didn’t know there’s a second patch on the south. The census map in my parent post show this area populated by “predators” but not much zooplankton, so not sure what lives there. There’s al…

Well, first result on my search engine links to an UN specialized agency (FAO) document. > Forests perform important buffering functions, such as cooling effects, the interception of precipitation,…

Any evidence/reference to back this up? Oceans are the cradle of life and are still populated by fishes, mammals, zoo and phytoplancton even away from coastlines. http://comlmaps.org&#…

That’s fine because bisons aren’t considered good pollinators. Forests canopy is a very, very living biome for pollinators however. You’ll find birds, insects (and small mammals) in droves over the ca…

Oceans, marine fauna and marine flora are part of the biosphere.

There’s also wild flowers that grow in forest. Bluebells in Belgium are spectaculars https://www.lonelyplanet.com/news/hallerbos-forest-belgium-b... …

It already happened with Kosmos 954 and will probably happen again soon: ~20 other satellites had been sent in space with the same tech. Kosmos crashed away from (human) life centers but that was a hu…

> a certain assumption of the population pyramid What is this assumption? The pyramid should look like… a pyramid? Don’t you see the elephant in the room: the population can’t infinitely grow on …

This comparaison is very strange: less population means less consumption, which is highly correlated with GHG emissions. A drastic reduction could cause serious short term issues for humanity (not for…

Serious question: is it really a crime to throw water on somebody in the US?

Let's build it on the crest of a lunar crater. Wafers on the shade side and solar panels on the sunny one. “Just” add some $Bs to send the stuff up in the space.

What alternatives do you use?

I agree we shouldn’t count on our liberal democraties to handle that. Individuals will do the job and the majority is coming, just wait for the boomers to evade in their fantastic plastic graves.

> geoengineering is something we can't avoid With all its inherent uncertainties geoengineering has many chances to make living conditions even worse. It appears that the best think we can do …

In that vision we never can’t do anything because leaders needs to be leaded by others. People do change their habits, donate, volunteer, make concessions and work hard for the good of society in it…

Why being an absolutist? We don’t need to convince every country. Just the top ones that drive the most consumption/pollution.

We’re actually curating it to get closer to the situation. Or are you seeing humanity as a kind of god that can play with earth without impacting it existence on it ?
