Good for the fish but as winters get warmer these dams will be useful to store rain that doesn't stay put in the mountains as winter snow. This might mean more summer droughts. Also a nice clean source of power. I would rather see fish ladders.

I hear that a lot but not sure how it would work. What if two people are standing there? How do they know what price you saw when you go to pay?

I think it only makes sense for online shoppers (and there it does make sense)

Thanks for sharing this, it actually makes it easy. I somehow convinced myself it was a trick having to do with ages being rounded off to whole numbers, so delta-age can be off by one... anyway I want my day back.

Role Hemp! I miss those days.

now it says unstainable

Also true!

It might not incompetent to assume the audience is not very discerning

Well said. But 'fear of God' only works until religion itself is hijacked.

What a great read, it reminds me of "True Believer" by the great Eric Hoffer. "Stupid" as a word is a translation choice, it would be more effective if they had chosen a less derogatory term. 'True believer' would work better than 'stupid person'.

You can set the wind to 0 and the speed somehow stays at 35 knots, I don't know much about sailing but that can't be right

Some people like to show off their creativity by making tenuous claims that every single thing is racist

Great visualization but lost me at the end when it got a bit too preachy. Turning socioeconomic issues into race issues doesn't help anyone.

With most 2fa systems going through people's cell phones, this is scary.

Jeez, no floppy drive on this laptop? How did people install stuff back then? But thanks, this is inspirational :)

I love this. It's a book about craftsmanship and the philosophy of excellence and knife sharpening is almost incidental (it takes a while to find the part that actually says how to sharpen stuff).

This kind of trade craftsmanship is rare these days but the lessons apply to any kind of productive pursuit.
