Cette vidéo est un véritable cauchemar éveillé pour l'écologiste décroissant. Un robot qui traque la nuit les pathogènes et les nuisibles à la lumière ultraviolette, sans un gramme de produit chimique, ce n'est pas un gadget... De quoi faire s'effondrer toute la théologie écologiste. Ici, c'est bien l'entrepreneur et le marché qui offrent une solution réellement efficace aux défis environnementaux. Pas de contrainte, pas de retour en arrière et pas de renoncement. L'entrepreneur résout le problème en créant de l'abondance là où l'on nous promettait la pénurie. Le rôle du progrès a toujours été celui-là : produire de l'abondance à partir de la rareté naturelle avec comme moyen ultime l'ingéniosité humaine. Reste alors une question : si la technologie résout réellement les problèmes que l'écologisme prétend combattre, pourquoi l'écologisme la déteste-t-il à ce point ? Tout simplement parce que ce qu'il veut, ce n'est pas une nature préservée, c'est une société administrée, dont il serait aux manettes. Comme toutes les autres idéologies constructivistes, socialistes et collectivistes, ce qui importe vraiment à l'écologiste ce n'est pas de résoudre les défis de son temps, c'est de régner sur les hommes de son temps. Le héros sera toujours l'entrepreneur, jamais celui qui le déteste.
autonomous robot driving through the field at night. no chemicals. no pesticides. just UV light killing pathogens and pests while everyone sleeps. this is @tricrobotics. this is what chemical-free pest control looks like at scale.

Prior art referenced in opposition to patent claims exist in open source form, creative commons form and public domain. Any open source project using and improving upon prior art is logically not infringing on patent.

Looking for ways to overcome procrastination? The best tip I’ve heard came from Ray Edwards. This might help you find the mental peace you’re looking for. The advice was this: ** Just do that big scary thing for 30 minutes today. ** Here is why this works: If you’re like most people, typically you have one or two projects you know you ought to be doing... But you’ve been putting them off for awhile. (This isn’t a guilt trip. It’s just the way a lot of us function.) The problem is: These items start crowding into your mental space. That deprives you of your peace. The solution is simple: Make the following commitment today: **I’m going to take 30 minutes and just get started on that project.** (You can either stop or continue after that.) Some projects sprawl out and take who-knows-how-long. The fear of the unknown takes up space in your mind. You can solve that: Just put 30 minutes into your project and see where that gets you. Then you will gain a sense of progress. And that will give you the extra mental space you’ve been looking for. After the 30 minutes, you might decide to keeping working. That’s up to you. Often, the hardest part of a task is “untying the canoe.” Do yourself a favor, and get that part done.

opensource progresses when people contribute their time/energy to improve it.

The EU is 6% of global emissions. Committing economic harakiri in response to climate concerns is pure vanity. Europe can't save the planet because the continent doesn't have any meaningful influence on the outcome.

Thinking about this again: It's nuts. I got editors to admit that it doesn't matter to them if a source is lying, so long as it's listed as "reliable" by the site. Why would anyone use Wikipedia with that standard of evidence? It is almost explicitly a tool to slander people!
I'm learning a lot from bickering with people on Wikipedia. For example, did you know fraudulent articles can be "reliable" and articles documenting said fraud can be "unreliable" for no other reason than 'some lifeless loser who edits Wikipedia 10 hours a day said so'? Wow!

Imagine admitting that. Not only admitting, but also defending the practice. And this is a "Professor at EPFL."
Replying to @eiszett
Have you read all the sources you ever cited? During my PhD we, along with dozens of other papers, cited a paper that I later found did not contain the result for which it was commonly cited. I should be banned I guess.

Nigdy nie jest tak dobrze jak mówi rząd ... ani tak źle jak mówi opozycja. Ot, wymyśliło mi się, chyba że ktoś już wcześniej to powiedział.

"our democracy" is commiespeak. Communists redefined "democracy" from rule by all the people through fair elections and rights into rule by the "true people"(the ideologically correct side) "Our" means their version. Opponents aren't legitimate voters, they're "threats to our democracy."

“Of all the tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under the omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber barons cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.” C.S. Lewis

A ten strike law preventing people from leaving prison after that many violent crime convictions would reduce period violent crime by 20% Five strikes would cut violent crime by 40% Three strikes would halve violent crime Two strikes would remove ~two-thirds of violent crime

VPN on kielletty seuraavissa maissa -Pohjois-Korea -Valkovenäjä -Irak -Turkmenistan Nyt EU haluaa liittyä tähän vapautta vaalivien kerhoon
Joko nyt hitaimmallekin alkaa valjeta, että EU ei ole mikään “demokratian linnake”, vaan totalitaristinen ylikansallinen peto, joka haluaa kontrolloida mitä saat ajatella ja sanoa? Digital Services Act -sensuuripaketti etenee täyttä vauhtia, ja Kokoomuksen oma eurovaikuttaja Henna Virkkunen on ollut innokkaasti viemässä sitä eteenpäin. Samat kokoomusglobalistit, jotka ovat jo vuosikausia Suomessa tukahduttaneet sekä sananvapautta että valinnanvapautta, jatkavat nyt Brysselissä samaa hommaa eurooppalaisella skaalalla. Nyt EU haluaa estää VPN:ien käytön. Miettikääpä sitä hetki. Venäjällä, siinä EU:n haukkumassa Putinin diktaattorivaltiossa, tavallinen pulliainen voi edelleen kiertää Kremlin sensuurin VPN:llä. Mutta EU:ssa, vapaan maailman lippulaivassa, se pitääkin kieltää. Kun EU-komissio huutaa X:ssä ”vapaa media” ja ”kerro totuus”, se on pelkkää Goebbels-tyylistä propagandaa. Juuri näin valheista tulee ”totuus” ihmisten mielissä. EU säätää lakia toisensa jälkeen sananvapauden tukahduttamiseksi samalla kun teeskentelee suojelevansa sitä. EU ei puolusta totuutta, vaan se haluaa hallita sitä. Kun EU:n eliitti joutuu käyttämään samoja työkaluja kuin Kiina ja Iran pitääkseen kansalaiset oikean tiedon ulkopuolella, niin ehkäpä se “eurooppalaiset arvot” -tarina on viimein tullut tiensä päähän. Tämä ei ole demokratiaa. Tämä on kansalaisten digitaalista valvontaa. Ja Kokoomus on siinä eturintamassa liputtamassa.

There's an old saying that nothing is more permanent than a temporary solution. So this 'temporary' income tax is doing great - it’s practically eternal now.
How's that 'temporary' income tax thing going?
