It reminds of how, back in the day when Murray Gell-Mann described his particle classification scheme as "the eightfold way" as a joke, people took it seriously and wrote books like "The Dancing Wu-Li Masters" and "The Tao of Physics" claiming to see links...
Well, you've certainly lost me with this neo-pythagorean stuff about the number 3. It seems eccentric to count an orbital as an object on a par with an electron and a proton when it just describes a possible bound state of an electron in terms of its ...
Bohm was an interesting case. I don't recall his book on QM being the standard text - people were more likely to recommend Schiff or Messiah - and I only bought a copy because I liked his later "Causality and Chance in Modern Physics", which was a kind of ...
Outstanding rant. No apologies needed.
...As you have just provided. Floods will always happen. Invest in adaption.
We had a storm - with slash. We will have more, with or without carbon.
"There is no adaptation to catastrophic climate change that comes with 3C global warming. " How do you know?
We don't really need citations in this, so much as physics lessons. I am not going to write a lengthy article, or dig up ancient academic material. People are invited to search if there is any truth in my assertions - or just automatically disagree because...
My link showed how we can reduce CO2 in totally logical ways. I can provide constructive ideas and understanding. If you really do believe in warmageddon, then my link is the last thing you should have deleted.
If it's about mitigation, then here are my ideas to achieve that end. Also, build on slightly higher ground and adaption becomes extremely easy too. We can in fact develop very cheaply. [deleted]
It's cheap...when you do it where it makes sense. Remember also, you've got 50 or 100 years to just rebuild on higher land.
Far exceed it? You have no perspective on the adaption costs, and the hard fact is warming, if it does occur, is 99.9% out of New Zealand's control. So cry in your coffee or adapt? Building for storm tolerance is easy and relatively cheap. Higher CO2 ...
Fine moderate me then. If you want to pretend that repugnance at this kind of propaganda bs is a ‘personal attack’ then that’s on you. I just think it’s sad you seem so unaware of the sources he’s dressing up as reasonable opinion. It’s not hard to find ...
Anyone reading this should be aware of who Max Blumenthal is. He’s literally been paid by both Putin and Assad and is one of the people behind the White Helmet ‘false flag’ conspiracy theory. He has no credibility except amongst utter cranks. It’s nothing ...
Meh, what’s the worst that happens? I get banned from a blog site that lets shit like this be punished. I do find it interesting that this branch of the left just refuse to die. The weirdest this is that the decades that these types shilled for the Soviet ...
It’s takes like yours that are making actual Eastern Europeans so frustrated. I’m sure they’ll thank you for suggesting they’re ignoring their own history. https://newrepublic.com/article/165603/carlson-russia-ukraine-imperialism-nato Also, anyone who ...
Wow! The Standard are printing pro Putin propaganda that may as well be written in the Kremlin, whilst Russian military are committing crimes against humanity. But then you can just play the meeeja card and equally embarrassing moral equivalence card. It’s...
And if the ‘threat and grievance’ is a smoke screen for simply wanting these nations under Russia’s thumb? There’s every reason to believe Putin fears these countries being open and democratic far more than he ‘fears’ NATO. What actual threat does NATO ...
A bit of reading for all the Putin apologists and so called ‘Realists’. Trigger Warning: Contains views of actual Eastern Europeans. ‘Westsplaining’ is a great term for the likes of Mearshiemer, Chomsky er al. https://newrepublic.com/article/165603/carlson...
“So Ukrainian self determination should take a back seat to Russia's imperialist ideology” Yes, but it’s “legitimate strategic interests”.
You suggest that people turn off the MSM and listen Mearshiemer. For starters the idea that the solution to a single view you disagree with is a different single view but just one you do agree with is hardly a serious proposition. I’d also be curious as to...
The bloke talking about the ‘Rothschilds’ isn’t imo, nor are the execution threats, not was the spitting at bus drivers, or the harassment of school kids, or NW workers or the Uni students or the journalists or the fires, or the paving stones, or the shit ...
And your handwringing and treating grown adults as children devoid of agency perpetual victims of ‘society’ helps? It’s patently obvious that a large number of the people involved aren’t vulnerable, they’ve actively chosen to embrace appalling views. They ...
This again… Given all evidence to the contrary, we’re supposed to just accept a sanitised view of what they were protesting. What were the people talking about ‘Rothschilds’ protesting, or those with execution lists? I’ve seen protestors spreading bizarre ...
Surely that works both ways? The mob have made it pretty clear they’re not interested in communication, understanding and acceptance, they simply demand it of the rest of us. As for forgiveness, what are we to make of that as a claim from people who have ...
Ah yes, I remember thinking when marching through London with the Syrian community on an Amnesty organised March in response to Assad’s thugs beating peaceful protestors prior to a single shot being fired in the war “Feels good to be a stooge of American ...
Given Russia and China have a veto, I’m genuinely curious as to what you think the UN can do?
Yes, but it’s not only the alt right, it’s also true of the left as well.
Monbiot on a phenomenon that has direct relevance to some of the Putin apologist bs posted here. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2022/mar/02/russian-propaganda-anti-imperialist-left-vladimir-putin?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other
I think he means all of the doctors and ICU nurses who were at the protest. I mean, you can see that the protest was just full of them.
The police seem to be giving the impression it’s no longer a ‘large number’. Obviously even a small number can make an area unsafe, but hopefully they’ll be able to finish things off quite quickly.
