And, will he change his politics towards more climate protection now? Of course not

But even then, there are other options to consider first before killing, even more deciding it on your own

Sure, your young dog, who is still being trained, does something bad because of whatever reason, and instead of trying to find out why that happened and what could be done to prevent it in the future, the first solution you come up with is to kill the dog?? That’s not being able to act on tough decisions, that’s poor judgement, lack of empathy, signs of psychopathy and just being a bad person

Yes but this ain’t happening, so we’re fucked

I feel with this guy. Dude has been trying to tell everyone about climate change for decades and people still don’t really do much to fight it. They deny, delay, argue instead of taking action even though they know exactly what to do

Yea the article does seem to make it a bigger thing than it actually is. But, the fact that the management or at least the CEO (that also has a major saying in everyday business and is highly respected/feared) openly shows a disrespect for safety measures and laughs them off as annoying, definitely paints a picture. Sure, accidents happen and maybe the numbers aren’t excessively high, but if management doesn’t take them seriously and learn from them and take measures to reduce the risk, then this becomes really concerning

This shows that he not only is willing to risk his employees safety for the sake of a “greater good” or at least a profitable business. But the fact that he not only ignores safety practices but actively removes those that are already in place just because they don’t please him aesthetically and he doesn’t want to see them is a whole other level of egoism and carelessness. He really doesn’t give a damn about other people

Why is it even so damn important for him to get rid of bots that he has to take these extreme measures and make the X experience for everyone so bad? Or maybe it’s just always the same excuse to justify his stupid decisions

Correct. Convection would just annihilate your insulating effect

The water creates a better way to transfer heat from the container to the freezer because it has direct contact with the container and replaces the air around it. Yes the water needs to be cooled too, but still the process is way faster because air really is a good insulator for heat. This is why insulating materials for houses e.g. always try to maximize air content (foam, glass wool, styrofoam)

Well, at the currents associated with a lightning strike, those thin chains would probably explode instantly and spray molten metal around. And the conducting path from the top would probably make a lightning strike more likely than without

Well the headline is kind of dumb, but the story is still quite interesting. How could a high state official of environmental affairs not have heard of the IPCC before? Apparently, they handled this case quite naively and seemed to think that this would be easy to win. Well, I guess not. Climate activists are getting more and more support from the courts as the evidence of endangering future generations by not acting is now practically impossible to deny

Very nice, let’s try to keep this place as clean as possible

That’s a basic rule that can be applied to lots of things: If a company offers a lot of different products or one product that can do everything, usually none of those are really good. Typical example would be a restaurant that serves everything from pizza/pasta, asian cuisine/sushi to steak, burgers and so on
