There’s no point to be sad: even trees get remembered and honoured. Human’s humanity have no such "compassion contingent”: loving a new child doesn’t take the love out of the precedents. Some ant…

I think they mean that a webapp is necessary desktop-first. Many websites/webapps are mobile-first. It resonate with me as I’m used to try new services on a (mobile) browser if available and swit…

Imagine two passengers seating in rows r10 and r11, looking at the target T A. You need to know where a passager's eyes are to display the POI in the right place. Even if each rows gets their own…

Actually the subsidies mostly go to diary farming. Vegan food is cheap to produce but mostly not subsidised. This, plus the (no) economy of scale makes the shelf prices sometimes slightly higher, eg…

Here’s the iso as pdf (it only apply to food): https://cdn.standards.iteh.ai/samples/76574/4b2534a5a3934ca1... Most vegan adhere to a more practical and pragmatic definition…

I’m curious if a classic starlings antenna works at 100-300 km/h with occasional rotation, or will it need to be mounted on a targeting motor on top of the train?

I used to mostly use chatgpt in an incognito tab, logged out. Until I notice it seems to have some context of my logged in session, and of the logged out as well. It may be paranoia or prompt deductio…

That’s a well-designed lot and very cool green-roof building indeed! I would love to work there! But it serves a very different context and real-estate economics than the high-density examples linked …

I’m not sure to understand the design you’re talking about. The one I usually see have big supports each ~10/20 parking spot and the roof cover the spots but also overhang them by a few meters. …

They both are in competition for surface exposed to the sun. The mall’s parking lot near my place used to have trees. When they installed the solar panel shaders last year they cut down all of them.

Humans also face severe treats and are not doing well but are not going extinct tomorrow. Honeybees seems to only decline in North America, especially the USA, but as you said it’s human intervention …

Too much loss and inefficiency. An in vitro ATP fuel cell feed with glucose would be more convenient with the right enzymes… but wait… glucoses will comes from plants and their own ATP uses sunlight a…

Can I rent a car, get it stolen by someone doing illegal speed and parking during week end, then finding the car back (and luckily the keys!) and return it to the rental? How is it more mountain-of-wo…

My after-thought odour diversion isn’t that simple and elegant though. I recommend the fan-included (cheaper) kit : https://www.kildwick.com/en/easyloo-diy-kit-fan-12v …

Sadly most of us are hopeless lobster boiled by greater powers. Unlike the crabs through you still can save the other lobsters by refraining to eat them.

I love it! My main (and only) device is a dry toilet so a plastic bag shortage would be a bigger problem. I guess we’ll emerge with origami. https://www.kildwick.com/en/fancyloo-d…

> you need them right now You can shut the entire network off, shower/poop at neighbours places or work, laundry at the local self-laundry shop and brush you teeth with a bootle of water. Inco…

> What's the goal of the tiny corp?
To accelerate. We will commoditize the petaflop and enable AI for everyone. I had the same feeling as throwadem when reading this. Your comment clarify what…

It’s not indeed, however while you’re not trying to be negative, what you say sounds like so: "I’m trying to point X are Y" where Y is a characteristic of most humans and not just X. “point…

You're strawmaning here. You can take any cause and point the selectiveness of the "people that care of that cause" by putting them in a bag and choosing the bag arguments to argument…

IMHO the Chèvre (goat) [0] and Morbier (bleu) [1] from Jay and Joy are very close. They also comes a bit cheaper in non-organic version [2]. I mostly buy from those guys but the curious may try a few …

Double that. I'll also recommend to try some fungi/bacteria pre-processing as it bumps the taste: Kimchi & Sauerkraut to wet the appetite. Don't use salt, use Miso. The darker the b…
