calcium in the atmosphere is plausibly fundable by a single billionaire.
My mnemonic is that watering, growing, pruning, and arranging are all separate skills and are harmed by mixing.
I didn’t know that was a feature
I don’t think you understand the objection that I and I assume many others have had to him. His objections are very non-random/motivated and this only becomes apparent after repeated interactions with him. I like having scrupulous friends, and even more I like having scrupulous friends who aren’t too burned out from addressing non central objections to actually discuss the ideas that they want to discuss. Scrupulous people are nerd snipeable. So I clear the area of snipers when I can.

Bury my french fry press next to me.
substantially more difficult and possible to injure yourself relative to cap lifter IME.
I’ve found that one time costs have huge returns due to biases against them. Personally and interpersonally.
You can release the vacuum on metal lids with a cap lifter
I think the easiest way to engage with the circularity problem is to regard computation and expected value of computation estimates as occurring on the same level of abstraction as everything else, including the expected losses from unknowns/uncertainty.
Did they? Death rate of even ww2 vs death rate of agrarian societies?
you may appreciate Descartes trying to record his thoughts on similar https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Rules_for_the_Direction_of_the_Mind
Prioritization and ambiguity avoidance seem to me to be interacting with the increasing competition for attention/dopamine-batna environment.
