We are where we are because of all the people who are shown the graph, immediately work out the solution, realize it will diminish their status as a side effect, and mobilize as a class to shut down any conceivable action.

What does apparent size have to do with real outcomes? Are Greenlanders and Russians reaping some great reward?

Learn about the necessity of going to certain places through the process of going to arbitrary places I don’t believe “I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow “ is followed by hurrying off to some cathedral of learning - and if it were, why wouldn’t “learn” have an object?

Thought of this while visiting the uss intrepid museum in NYC. They have an actual ball turret on display. You can look at it and imagine a guy squished in there next to the big machine gun.

Then we’re on the hook for the nationalized company’s cash flow as well as the cost to buy it from shareholders. My plan: let everyone buy a cheap BYD, let the whole auto industry die, spin up a public corporation that buys the industrial assets cheap and hires the workers to build something else

AIDS had a technical solution , ozone had a political solution with a little technical help, climate goals are ahead of IPCC estimates thanks to many factors but especially Chinese solar PV. The world needs helping hands and lots of them. People should not feel obligated to loathe themselves.

The original IMF paper investigates the utility of the subsidies in pretty good detail. The authors conclude that there is a lot of room to reduce the global subsidy without net harm to human welfare. Many countries are doing well with smaller subsidies that others.

Is it everyone crowding onto the last patch of temperate ground or two groups with different concerns moving in opposite directions, even into the homes vacated by their counterparts? I’d be more worried if they were all going to Michigan and Illinois but that doesn’t seem to be the pattern.

Yeah this does seem to offer a competing outlet for some of the energy of the conspiratorial right. Fair to call it trek-pilled? I wonder what resource this project needs that environmental politics withholds?

Well, yeah, being seen as a good person means responding to social incentives. Our communities decide what those are. Holding to an idea of objective good beyond what the community expects is actually more individualistic.

Yeah a lot of DE’s quality is keeping these sort of questions open. You could put together a case that the revolution was going somewhere good, though I think that would be a minority perspective in Martinaise, even excluding the royalists and fascists

IIRC the moralintern is like the UN but a military superpower. Other nations behave like grown-ups and participate in it. Revachol is a basket case that failed to free itself from 19th century ideas and is basically under supervision

If the can fits comfortably in one hand then it’s bottled water with edgy marketing. If they’re larger then with our last strength stack them in the shape of a rocket, ignite the base from a distance, lay down on the ground with mouths open, and wait for the cloud seeding effect to bring rain

Yes, that was the 20th c Cold War thinking. Inflicting widespread disability was seen as more devastating than immediate lethality. Think about this too much and novel chronic diseases start to seem pretty freaky.
