@_warrenhogan Can confirm. I had one of my hardest working colleagues quit in 23 for a cruisey NDIS job. He was even boastful about it.
Gov needs to push down status of NDIS cruisers like when RBA stokes fear with a 50 basis point move.
Big moves matter. Crack the whip with rate of change.
@chamath You'd be paying 100x more installation cost than just installing a giant solar farm. You're also capturing more energy in a purpose built facility than on rooftops (location, orientation, shadows etc)
@csentropy Equilibrium naturally emerges from competition of the marketplace. Not a law inasmuch as a symptom of evolved landscapes.
The landscape generally thrives on cooperation and mutual interdependence, thus consolidating those traits.
I'm sure there are many exceptions.
@JoelMCurzon That's just how power works. IMO, it's actually preferred to have the ruler require the help of mutually beneficial relationships (corrected for alignment, which is the real question I would imagine).
Without those, we have unmitigated tyrants.

@misha_saul This is the logical extension of a country that spends it's few hours of leisure time soaking up the wisdom of The Block.
Renovating our way to riches.
My hope is the vibe shift finally catches up with us.
My hope, is that it soon becomes _time to build_
@gnievchenko Oh and to your second point. Agreed, hence the move to solar et al.
You do realise there's a finite amount of worthwhile fossil fuels in the ground right?
We need those fossil fuels for more things than energy. So a reduction in energy producing fossil fuels seems reasonable.
@gnievchenko I agree, lock humanity out of certain areas so they will rewild.
It would absolutely happen if we let it. The point is that we get in the way.
I'm definitely not against carbon sequestration (although I think nitrogen cycling and the global genome are important as well)
@gnievchenko I'm happy to agree that it's the easy, dimwitted take on things. But true to the dimwit meme, I think it's the take that proper investigation leads to.
Sure we could genetically engineer carbon sequestration agents. But for the moment, evolution has already done that for us.
