hannoMy promised background on Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS). This is often a very controversial topic, and I believe we should have more informed debates about it. Primarily one should understand that not all CCS projects are the same, and that the way CCS was done in the past is really incompatible with a climate-neutral future. https://industrydecarbonization.com/news/can-ccs-escape-from-its-fossil-fuel-industry-roots.html

Twitter is such a time waste...
So I thought I'd come here to waste even more time
stfgreat quote from Landaus #web #crypto post:
> web-based “#E2E” applications claim to secure against malice on the part of the server operator using encryption implemented in client-side #JavaScript, but this is obviously not true, since if the server operator was malicious, they could just push different client-side JavaScript. (Conversely, entities other than the server operator are secured against via use of TLS, so there is no additional benefit to “E2E” if you trust the server operator.)
new law, hugo landaus law:
A cryptosystem is incoherent if its implementation is distributed by the same entity which it purports to secure against.

Still my favorite segment about why it's a bad idea to participate in bad-faith "debates" about science. They only result in further amplifying disinformation.
"People still think this issue is open to debate, because on TV it is. It's always one person for one person against. When you look at the screen, it's 50/50, which is inherently misleading."

A giant cloud of phosgene, dioxins, and hydrochloric acid was unleashed over the US and basically nobody is talking about it because hey look, balloons!
Just getting out ahead of this one: Bird flu is definitely airborne (except if it's in penguins)

The balloon was at 18,000m. The temperature at that altitude is -55°C. If that balloon had people on it they were already dead.

“I generally find it a bit disconcerting that a lot of reactions from leftists were to simply scoff at the incident. What if it had been manned and Biden had been pressured to shoot it down by hawkish Republicans? How much more would that have contributed to ramping up tensions?”
