Because it comes in at a different frequency versus when it goes out. Light, including UV and visible light, hits the ground, then the ground gets warm and radiates in the IR, which can be blocked by clouds.

They will pull over.

I think you make a good point, but there's a big difference between the amount of waste produced and the amount of waste that makes it into the natural environment, as opposed to a recycling center or dedicated landfill. Just because developed countries are producing more waste does not mean that they are contributing more waste to the bottom of the ocean. (I am not suggesting that we should not all aim to produce less waste and handle what waste we do produce better.)

If your flight time is half, you can run twice as many flights per day with the same plane, which halves your amortized capital cost per flight. That doesn't get you all the way there, but it's a significant cost reduction, which combined with others, could conceivably get you there.

Do we know yet if CloudFlare has similar rate limits?

SendGrid has a newsletter/marketing product called "Marketing Campaigns" that's worth a look, it satisfies those three requirements.

I'm talking about the raw reads, which is important if you want to try a different alignment or base-calling method. You can debate how important it is to be able to do that, but I'm not trying to argue that the data should be kept, I was just explaining why the total size of publicly available RNA-seq data (the sum total of which the parent is attempting to organize) runs in the petabytes.

It's not generally a significant effect, unsubscribe rates tend to be well under 1%. Most people just ignore emails they don't want.

An RNA sequencing run generates on the order of 10GB of data, a typical study requires many runs (treatments, controls, replication of results, etc), and posting the raw data is required by most biology journals. I'm not surprised that there is over 1PB of data available to curate.
