Yes, it's not an either/or. You have to live in the society you live in, but you don't have to emit carbon on luxury. Policy will always have more effect, but it doesn't make sense to me to wait for a policy to force you to change your habits. That's just an excuse. You can just change them today.

Too many people have been eating up Musk's nonsense for too long, but I get the feeling that's not the case anymore. When Musk says stuff like this today, is anyone taking it seriously at all? Some media outlets will print it because they need content and clicks, but does anyone anywhere believe it?

Also, how gullible do you have to be to think these people actually care about kitchen table issues? Once it power, RE would do a 180 and go "actually, first we have to do all these Republican-light, corporate friendly things"

Ved å bruke ordet «forfordele» kan man altså velge mellom å bli misforstått av de fleste og føle seg overlegen fordi man bruker ordet liksom-riktig, eller gi etter for presset og bruke den nye betydningen og bli sett ned på av de som vet den «egentlige» betydningen av ordet. Hm!

Samme med ordet «forfordele,» som opprinnelig betydde å gi relativt mindre, men brukes nå ofte i betydningen å gi relativt mer (denne betydningen har fått innpass i ordboken, så ikke teknisk sett feil).

The cynics think today's attack on Venezuela is staged and transactional. Maduro is allied with Putin, but in 2019 Putin offered Trump a swap: Russia cedes Venezuela and gets Ukraine. (See Fiona Hill's testimony in Trump's first impeachment trial, h/t @davetroy.com). Even Maduro may be in on it. 2/

We are delusional if we think that our wealth, which is integrally tied to the world economy and legal systems, will survive intact in a world war or a massive climate catastrophe.
We refuse to invest in the world order we need to survive.

On racks like these, is the entire weight of each installed unit supported only by the screws in front? There doesn't seem to be any support structure further back. </clueless>

Forstår ikke motivasjonen med å lage slike grafer som gjør dataene vanskeligere å forstå. Antar at det ikke er onde hensikter. Er det bare dumskap?

Her må man bort til y-aksen for å lese av verdiene for å forstå dataene riktig, men da kan man heller skrive tallene i en tabell.

Poenget med grafer er å gjøre dataene enklere å forstå. Med slike grafer som vist her, ville det vært *mer* forståelig å bare skrive tallene i en tabell.

Forslag: Hvis mobilen er død, blir du tilgitt og refundert gebyret hvis du i ettertid kan dokumentere eget kjøp av billett, men du blir ikke tilgitt hvis alt du kan dokumentere er at noen andre kjøpte billett (som du påstår var til deg.) Dette vil jo løse det fleste sånne saker på en grei måte.

Even before the impressive conversational performance of the chat bots of the last few years, the Turing Test never seemed very useful to me. I wouldn't be surprised if Alan Turing never intended for it to be such a big deal.
