  • You may be able to get away with stacking the cut trees in deserts, where the dryness may prevent bacterial action

    Edit: I watched the Cody's lab video. I'm now on team asteroid 2024 yr4. If it isn't going to hit we ought to try to get it to hit the Southern Ocean, and if it will hit we should aim it

  • You would presumably capture the carbon using excess solar and wind power, which is also the cheapest power there is, sometimes going negative

    Is your capture number including the cost of liquifying the CO2 for storage?

  • We have such technology already, it's just too expensive

  • Until the tree dies and rots or burns

    Specifically replanting all the forests we cut down during the age of sail is just capturing the carbon that was released when those sailing ships rotted

    If we wanted to keep the carbon captured which we captured with plants, we would have to store those plants where they are safe from rot or burn them in a (not yet invented) carbon capturing furnace

  • Specifically it's not trying to be an over unity machine. Energy is spent pushing air through the filter medium; energy is spent moving the filter to the CO2 extractor; energy is spent heating the filter (or whatever the extraction system is); energy is spent compressing or freezing CO2 for storage

  • dangerous

    It killed that guy with the home built rocket

    It's in the top category on that site, which is also all antisemitic — I haven't noticed a religious side to flat earth believers (aside from their belief in their idea of the shape of the planet)

  • Isn't it a payments database? One client could have multiple payments. You wouldn't expect client IDs to be unique

  • It's going to be so expensive to fix all the damage this government is doing when America next has sensible government

    So many skills lost, so many systems broken

  • Take that point and explain humans living to about 100 after breeding from 20 to 40, and kids taking ~15 years to become good enough

    Human tribes doing well is good for making children successful, old women have much better skills in finding whatever plant matter they're gathering, old men are better at tracking and stalking prey. The old people teach the young.

    We evolved towards longer lifespans because groups that live longer survive and continue better

  • They expect the pulverised rock to be spread by the blast and distributed on ocean currents, the CO2 is throughout the water column, it moves over concentration gradients, if one volume of water has 1g/L and another has 3g/L then CO2 will move from the 3g/L bit into 1g/L bit until they are in balance

    I think they hope the pulverised rock will be spread so it works quicker, not having to wait for CO2 to balance

  • Government is fine. Remember money is just IOUs from the government, if billionaires assets were sold and the money went to government it would be deflationary, all money in circulation would become more valuable

  • Counter examples only refute when they are publicised. When they are ignored because the status quo is preferred they achieve little

    See for example low carb nutrition

  • CO binds to haemoglobin (the oxygen carriers in your blood) just like O^2, but a little stronger. Effectively each molecule of CO puts one haemoglobin out of action, making you less able to transport oxygen out of your lungs

  • It's avoiding bad outcomes. Babies from closely related people often have problems. Practically every culture has a method of avoiding close relatives breeding

    Eugenics is about breeding for desirable qualities, a eugenicist's ideal person still couldn't make good kids with a close relative

  • There's not many* types of mosquito that are a problem for humans. If we wiped out the dangerous ones, there would still be plenty of mozzy to go around

    *I feel like it's either 1 or 3

  • The difference between your scenario and the glitch is that in the glitch you are in fact not actually falling

  • That's not eugenics.

  • They added a "plus" in the middle of the word "human"
