I wonder what spacex will be worth when launching satellites is impossible for a couple hundred years.

Just don’t fill it up and you’ll be fine. If you want to be clever write the max lba to the drive at 80% of capacity and you will never experience a single instance of drive wear out in your lifetime.

Your survey design could use some work.

There are hundreds of native bees. It’s the European honey bee that is not native. The native bees tend to be solitary or non honey producing small colony bees that hibernate instead of stocking honey for the winter. We tend to only care about honey producing bees for obvious reasons.

Humanity will be dead within a hundred years. Every tool we make we turn into a weapon and put it in our own mouths.

Bombing them won’t open the strait of Hormuz which is what trump needs. It’s a classic asymmetrical warfare situation. It takes minimal command infrastructure to keep it closed. (Iran has already been decapitated) He very much wants to open it and they can demand anything they want.

Is there a therefore? If we know it’s locked in we can start discussing the knock on effects that we know will happen as a consequence. It’s quite rare that climate science gets opportunities for solid predictions. I would guess that England and Northern Europe are in for colder winters starting in a decade but I’m not up to date on the predicted effects of collapse of the Atlantic currents.

There’s a spectrum of understanding.

Humans are notoriously bad at assessing their own understanding. There’s even a fancy name for it “the illusion of explanatory depth” is a mental failure humans experience where they think they understand something till they try to explain it, then they’re confused when confronted by the fact that their explanation makes no sense. The example often given is of a toilet.

I submitted code yesterday that I could explain but not replicate.

I could easily submit code I could replicate but not debug. (Frankly history shows that debugging code is often harder than writing it)

I could write tests for code I could neither replicate nor debug. I would argue that the testing part is of higher value than understanding, replicating or debugging. Because in a sense you’re proving that it does all the things the tests say it does.

I would argue that “Understand” is a word so broad as to be useless in this context. Perhaps you should not submit code (or in fact any work product) that has not been verified.

Just yesterday China announced it will stop providing their most powerful models. They have reached performance and cost parity. Now they proceed to phase 2. One thing about the Chinese, they play economic game theory like clockwork.

This hypothesis should be very easy to test. Tire pollution exposure will drop off following a predictable function of proximity.
