Right and presumably the guy who actually freed him, vs just talk, is going to be more likely to pardon him?

Trump had 4 years to free Assange but did nothing. He will say anything to get elected. It's surprising how people don't see it. In Texas we call that 'All hat, no cattle.'

Ground-based sensors historically undercount methane emissions in 3rd party trials. They have a limited FOV which makes it hard to accurately measure a plume of gas, particularly when the wind blows. I suppose you could create a Dyson sphere of fixed sensors around an O&G asset, but that quickly becomes more expensive than a space based sensor.

Because these leaks can occur spontaneously, you really want real-time, continuous monitoring of a wide area with high resolution. Aerial sensors are impractical for this purpose. Only a large constellation of satellites can offer this.

Little Star Pizza is one, if not the best, pie in the Bay Area. It's very well known and loved. It is surprising that customers wouldn't be willing to order delivery directly from the restaurant, especially if they could pass along some savings.

>a carbon tax high enough to make your flight cast 8% more, would totally destroy the fossil fuel industry, as everyone would suddenly have a financial incentive to burn less of it.

This is not necessarily true. Oil has a traditionally low elasticity of demand, meaning that demand for it does not change significantly even when its price changes. This is particularly true in the US, where there are few public transportation options in most cities.

>When you’re trying to make the argument that privacy is fundamentally important, you can strengthen your argument by respecting other people’s privacy.

Why is the converse not true as well? If one believes the constitution does not protect the right to individual privacy, then don't expect it.

>$13k-20k is the anticipated low range during the next 'slump' year

What is the basis for this assessment? At least with a stock you can point to the underlying performance of the company. What factors affect BTC price other than sentiment?

Just because you produce a crop doesn't mean it's economical to harvest it. Farmers must produce sufficient yield to cover the cost of harvesting (fuel, manpower, equipment cost, etc) or they will just leave the failed crop to decompose.

>Invalidating a box could result in up to a thousand votes being discarded indeed, which is quite small though for a national election.

I don't know what are the typical margins of victory for French Elections. In the 2000 US Presidential Election, George W. Bush won the Presidency by a margin of 537 votes in Florida. If the US had implemented French style balloting, a single attack of this kind in a heavily Republican district of Florida could have easily swayed the election to Gore.
