Actually you might wanna spend some time looking to this a little further it turns out these are not ordinary forests these are called boreal forests these sometimes take 100 years to recover in due to the short growing season and sometimes they don't actually recover.

And beyond that even when they do recover that's when they have good topsoil. In this situation Google removed the topsoil as well.

Speaking of the topsoil there's other add-on effects such as exposing methylmercury under the topsoil which gets washed away when it now rains. That mercury as well as other sediment makes its way into the water system and it actually clogs fish's gills and poisons the water system.

On top of that I discovered that it's actually 2 square miles not just one. But the fact that it's only a percent of a percent of Finland's total forest isn't really a useful comparison: Imagine if Google bulldozed 3,400 American homes without permission would we say oh there's still plenty of homes left?

Not sure if I should respond to the attitude or the facts here...

I'm guessing you're out of the blast radius so it's easy to form an image and shadow box against it...with the hope others will buy into the diversion...

Btw I'm not even against all data centers. I am for following the law.

Trees take a generation or two to regrow. They don't "grow like weeds." Someone has to plant and protect them while they grow. That's a lot of work.

In the meantime, there are displaced wolves roaming the neighborhoods.

Plus, these trees aren't going to be replanted like in your projection. They're getting replaced with steel, concrete, asphalt, and electronics. All of which supporting tech that consumes rather than generates resources.

And the trees are^Wwere part of a system. They kept muddy water from flowing into the other stream. This will have all kinds of "downstrean" (heh) effects.

Forests can be cleared like this, but it requires assessment, approval and preparation. This wrecklessness is the epitome of "move fast and break things," "ask forgiveness rather than permission," and the "never believe you're wrong" mindsets that have caused so much damage.

As if people didnt have enough reasons to mistrust the U.S.

I hope this disastwe hastens Europe toward de-googlification.

But if the 1000 are persuading others with meaningful benefits and gaon momentum it's a different story.

Yes you want a phone for SMS to log on to the web site. But I avoid banking apps on a phone. Dont need them.

For how long? I can envision a troop of vibecoders super-charging android accessibility.

I'm in a similar position the article was so well done I almost feel like I can actually Understand this concept and I think yeah having an LLM help me write some code for each little section with some example numbers would go really far like if I understand it right the key in the store could be almost anything like a word and a and a page and a line number and a book or even just like a movie and a bunch of pixels I mean not necessarily the most efficient way to store like typical media but just as like a learning experiment

Wait am I hallucinating? Doesn't WA refer to Washington? Only Alaska is "biggern" Texas....and it's ~3x so. ?!

It'a not abt whether it keeps running. It's whether its citizens are able to maintain their rights.

Same here wrt to Bose. I respect their tech and science but then they add a bogus aesthetic layer on top.

I think it is meant to make jazz sound good. The eq-d bass and attenuated mids make a standup bass more apparent and the piano and vocals more present.

But it made me start to wonder if I started hating my favorite band: I was packing up to move this weekend and stumbled on my CD collection. Many Stereolab CDs. I played them in my basic acoustic waveguide radio. A slick bookshelf I inherited and rarely use.

45 minutes later I was telling myself "god this music sucks...just agonizing repetition." Turns out yes the motorik bass is repetitive...but the other key point of the band is the gentle singing and intricate delicate synth and organ melodies...all foreclosed on by some evil twin combo of an audio eng and marketer overindexing in mid low bass.

Exactly. Call the residents to confirm. Drive to the location and look at the place first.

After circa the first 10 calls it should start to become apparent.

Imagine how many false swats it would take at the police chief's house before the policy got an update?

Yeah I could see this...folding claude code cli into the copilot-style experience could be good.
