> Ironic OECD countries actually REDUCED their emissions based on a peak in 2007 and continue to do so

Any idea what percentage of this reduction is due to offshoring manufacturing?

Interesting that he basically called for a more idealistic version of the Green New Deal back then.

To add to this: I bought a Steermouse license well over a decade ago. I paid once. I’ve been using it ever since and it’s maintained and updated. No subscription. Isn’t charging for updates. This is what software should be.

Telegram bots API works well for this FYI, unless there’s a reason you need it in Messages.app

I'd love to use this but is there any risk that this will get Google to flag me as a bot/malicious? I wanna make sure I can still pass captchas and don't screw anything up for testing on my dev machine.

> I also don't understand the take that altruism/philanthropy has to be zero sum

https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/altruism

By the first definition it requires “unselfish regard”. If MrBeast is pulling 54 million a year (along with lots of fame and clout) he’s not exactly qualifying for the first definition.

Definition 2 is the one I’m most familiar with from the animal kingdom, and it actually requires that the giver either gain nothing or lose something. So that may be where people are coming from who take exception to his behavior being described as “altruistic”. By definition, it is not.
