Interestingly, pyrolizing biomass produces energy and solid carbon that can be sequestered. So while it produces less energy than burning biomass, it's energy positive and carbon negative if you bury the carbon output.…
It's still a bug. You have to ask "why" more. Why did the system allow bullies to be leaders? What should be done to prevent that?

Other comments are calling for name and shame, or saying that groups cannot make decisions and there should be one authority. So, while others may have thought the same as me, I am not reading a lot of comments that are…
I've been in game dev for decades, and I've never understood the desire for lua. That's not totally true, it's easy to integrate and fast. But the language semantics and tooling leave a lot to be desired. I'm hopeful we…
> Do you think proportional representation should be forced? What gives you the impression I would want that? I said, quite clearly, that deviations from the norm are worth asking questions about, but those deviations…
100%. That's why I ducked out of the boy scouts, why I ducked out of Amazon, why I ducked out of my abusive family. Some things you do have to step away from.
Exactly what it says on the tin. Where do rustconf/rust lang leadership diverge from rust users. If 40% of rust devs are women, but only 10% of leadership is women, they are an under represented group in leadership.…
It's a bug. Bugs happen. Systems are still systems whether they deal with people or code. When big bugs happen, we evaluate why, and improve the system so it performs better next time. We don't blame people, we focus on…
If someone is in the minority, it's totally reasonable to ask, "could their minority status be a factor in their disenfranchisement?" Then you look at the data, and in this case come to the conclusion, "no, it was not a…
I think it's absolutely reasonable to blame England for famines in Ireland and India, as well as blame Soviet style communism for famines in Ukraine and China. I'm a (non Soviet style) communist, and it's frustrating to…
Why were they hoarding grain?
I'm a communist, and holy shit have both communist regimes and capitalist regimes killed millions upon millions in preventable causes. People here generally jump on communists pretty assertively, but I think it's…
Stealing food from a nation, resulting in millions of deaths, is a pretty clear "bad guy" move. There are plenty of clear cut bad guy moments in history, falsely equivocating and saying "it's complicated" is a way to…
I don't read this as particularly deceptive, or suggesting that there were no prior famines. That said, seeing rate of famines increase as technology for food production improved is a pretty glaring. Churchill (and…
