@MaxCRoser The rise of new economies in africa & southeast asia. Prosperous and peaceful middle east. Emergence of new free city states around the world. Decentralization of old world. 10x return of natural wilderness.
Localism. All powered by renewables and decentralized economy (crypto).

In a world where offices are hard to lease, #TishmanSpeyer's #Spiral is now over 80% occupied. Those wraparound terraces making every1 gaga about the place. 'Employee engagement h/been off the charts'

@PaulSkallas but what we get are PMMA, PE, PP, PET, PVC, ABS and Aluminum

@PaulSkallas and also weak cutaway instead of straight/classic

@waitbutwhy …allthough mars is just 4.3 km (2.7 miles) when on the same side of the sun and thereby the shortest distance

[Andreas Klok @andreasklok]

@waitbutwhy If earth were a 1 m ball

Distance to Moon 30.16 m (99 feet)
Distance to Mars 26.7 km (16.6 miles)
Distance to sun 11.9 km (7.4 miles)
Distance to Jupiter 61.7 km (38.3 miles)
Distance to Pluto 392.4 km (243.8 miles)

(av. distances)

So the sun is closer to earth than mars??

@paulg Sometimes a new idea comes along, a mutation. A rejection of existing ideas, but the new idea still need to be proven to survive.

Alternative formulation would be:

“Teenagers rejecting their parents’ ideas perform the same function as genetic mutation in sexual reproduction

[Andreas Klok @andreasklok]

@PaulSkallas this is a good take

[Andreas Klok @andreasklok]

@PaulSkallas Yes. Cars have been around for thousands of years. Chariots, wagons, carriages, cars. Just different means of propulsion. Cars and walking are lindy

@paulg powering the grid with solar cells and batteries.

@nntaleb @DrCirillo might be wrong on the french kitchen. Beauty of the french kitchen is it sits between nordic dairy/ butter/ cheese kitchen, and southern wine/ olive oil/ vegetable kitchen. Simple but complex. Bourgogne and cheese. French fine dining is something else…a product of modernity

@TerraformIndies 1 Watt of solar makes about 1 Kwh per year in most locations. (best case in the desert is about 1.9 kwh, worse case in rainy Denmark is about 1 kwh)

So 1 MW will make you ~1-2 Million Kwh per year.

@jaffer_ali1 This post brought me down a rabit hole of why things like biological evolution (which is lowering of entropy and kind of goes against thermodynamic 2nd law) happens in a ~closed system like the solar system.

Evolution is an Out-of-equilibrium system.

@lassemandal @larstvede Værdierne er for en 20 års life cycle/ 200,000 km, og inkluderer charging losses og battery decay.

Embodied carbon (Mørleblå og grøn) for EV er en smule højere end ICE biler, men operation er langt lavere.

@alex_avoigt What about methane (LNG) derived from renewable hydrogen? LNG is a lot easier to handle than Hydrogen for ships/ long haul planes

@technosmith This is a mix of real video and unreal rendering. The sequence inside the alley is rendered. The street with the cars is video footage. (from the author’s comments on youtube)

@joe_shipman @waitbutwhy With the information given, and the language used, the answer is 1/3.

The 1000 families are in four equal parts:

Boy-Girl
Boy-Boy
Girl-Boy
Girl-Girl

We already know that Mr Smith doesnt have Girl-Girl. So he must be in the other group. Of this group only 1/3 has another boy
