@vinayak_iyer_ Naah, I guess they stopped their free tier after they were acquired by Salesforce. They literally deleted all my repos and account. Which is exactly why GenZ insurance Websites aren’t live anymore😭

The fact that all the secure encryption algorithms are considered secure just because no one has broken them “yet” makes me sick.

If I had a dollar for every time someone criticizes The Ocean Cleanup with the phrase “if your bathtub is overflowing, you wouldn’t get a mop, but you would first turn off the tap”, we wouldn’t have to accept donations anymore.

It is not only a cliché, but it’s also just plain wrong, for a few reasons:

1. Humanity can do more than one thing at the same time. Why not do both? Get a friend to start mopping while you work on closing the tap! One does not compete with the other; the cost of cleaning up the legacy pollution is negligible compared to what we spend on dealing with the waste on land.

2. The analogy can be used to criticize the *timing* of cleanup, but instead it’s being used to criticize spending *any* effort on anything cleanup-related. When your bathtub is overflowing, surely you’re happy there were people who developed the mop? Presumably you still have a mop at home?

3. The longer the water is on your nice wooden floor, the more damage it does, so you’d still want to mop up the water rather quickly. Similarly, the longer the accumulated plastic remains in the ocean, the more harm it causes.

4. We don’t disagree that stopping the inflow should have highest priority. Yet, due to the persistency of the plastic, that’s not the only thing we should do if we want to return to clean oceans.

5. The Ocean Cleanup works on closing the tap, too! The closest analogy to the faucet are rivers and that’s exactly where are are intercepting it to prevent it from flowing into the ocean. Instead, these activists often put river interception under the header of ‘cleanup’ too.

6. Many of those that use the bathtub analogy argue we should stop producing plastic. If we take the analogy seriously, that’s not ‘closing the tap’ but closing down the complete water supply.

7. The analogy suggests that you’d have to clean up as fast as it is flowing in to have any effect, but that’s not how the plastic problem works. Almost all the plastic that flows into the ocean washes up back onto land within a few months of being emitted, essentially removing itself. Only a tiny fraction persists. This means that just a single full scale ocean cleanup system in the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, which specifically addresses that persistent fraction, will, in fact, be capable of removing persistent plastic faster than it is flowing in.

Let’s retire this dreaded analogy.

@AdvanceDexter @anyrium Not sure how true is it but as per the original tweet author, the restaurant says it is a non-veg item and zomato also lists it as a non-veg item which is why she is holding Swiggy responsible for the mixup.
