Not to mention, who is in control of making the tests? Mental health/aptitude tests have had a history of being at least a little bit racist, kinda like the old ‘intelligence’ tests that were designed to prevent black people from voting.

The image sensor is square… it should just shoot 1:1 scale and let you crop it to an orientation later
Hard rationing of greenhouse gas emissions
You’re more or less describing cap-and-trade, where corporations have a limit of carbon emissions as ‘credits’ which can be traded on a market. So a company that doesn’t produce as much emissions can sell their surplus credits to another company, so the market as a whole doesn’t exceed a set amount of CO2 emissions. As it stands, in this or other carbon tax based systems, people pay for emissions in the form of sales tax on CO2 producing products.

I’d imagine they’d just leave again eventually. If suburbia was an advantageous place for them, they’d already be there.
Nuclear power plants within or adjacent to urban centers, especially in colder climate regions.
Nuclear plants are somewhat geographically restricted to needing to be close to a suitable water source, there’s plenty that are next to or inside metropolitan areas. That being said, high voltage transmission means that a plant can still be a few tens of kms outside of a city before transmission losses start to add up. Also, small-scare reactors have been under development for use in remote communities.
Gray water recovery built into homes and municipal water systems.
Any sort of dirty water recovery is more efficient at the municipal scale, and plenty of towns are already doing that.
Urine collection programs for phosphate recovery.
Seems that’s not a super easy thing to do (read expensive), but there’s research being done… also apparently, a good portion of it in wastewater is from laundry soap… but as in the above, more efficient to just collect all wastewater and process it on a large scale.
Are you slow? nobody is arguing that you can hot swap a GPU. That’s not what people are correcting you on.
YOU claimed that PCIE is not PLUG AND PLAY
NO. PCIE is not plug and play.
That was your comment. It was wrong. You were wrong.
Dude… you’re the one that said PCIE isn’t plug and play, which is incorrect. Plug and play simply means not having to manually assign IRQ/DMA/etc before using the peripheral, instead being handled automatically by the system/OS, as well as having peripherals identify themselves allowing the OS to automatically assign drivers. PCIE is fully plug-and-play compatible via ACPI, and hot swapping is supported by the protocol, if the peripheral also supports it.
Don’t forget the taxes that pay for said roads
Same in Ontario. I’ll get a paper copy if I ask for one, but otherwise new scripts are faxes direct to the pharmacy. Even paper copies are a printout though. I haven’t gotten a handwritten prescription in well over a decade now
The truly infuriating part is there’s likely lots of people out there that got them on the first try or by accident
It’s PR bullshit to give an excuse for backtracking basically
You’re a bundle of neurons piloting a skeleton inside a wetsuit
With the current theory of how the moon was formed, it was in fact close enough to be touching the earth at one point… technically
For as long as Google is part of FAANG, they will have a nearly unlimited supply of fresh grads to burn through, and fresh grads still line up to work there to get that name on their CV.
I don’t think it’s a manufacturing thing, people sometimes use cast iron pans to melt lead for casting
These are less for your education as it is for management/HR to absolve responsibility: “We trained them to not do <xyz>, it’s not our fault they did it”
Landlords run at market rate and that keeps a lot of people out, so for them that’s no housing.
That’s the worse than nothing option, because it also invites gentrification to the area, which drives up prices of everything else nearby. So now not only can people not afford a place to live, they also can’t even afford some food to eat, and are forced to migrate somewhere else. This is how you end up with homeless encampments.
The best alternative to a flawed government program is nothing, it can get far worse than that
Not to mention skin is chock full of oils
Possibly something to consider as well is that a) under virtually no circumstance would these people ever have to face trial, because rocket scientists are a valuable commodity, and b) the US/USSR were already nudging themselves into the Cold War before the Germans surrendered. If the USA didn’t nab these scientists, the USSR certainly would have. I see it was mentioned in the reddit post you linked as well. Another thing to consider, is it would be much easier for the US to keep tabs on these people if they were brought to the US and employed in government jobs than if they went to the USSR, or Argentina like many other Nazi officials.
It’s literally impossible to stop people from having alcohol.
Yes, your total energy consumption drops, but your electricity consumption rises as a result. Electrification of stuff that relied on burning fossil fuels means that electricity consumption goes up even while total energy consumption stays the same or drops. I’m not necessarily saying that nuclear is the solution, but it’s a solution that can at least buy us a few decades for renewables and energy storage to catch up to demand.
