I guess if you feel like you're not wasting enough money on roads this would certainly be a way to waste a lot more.

Sure they can. They just have to do it in a way that doesn't create a disadvantage for other advertising providers. Google isn't allowed to stop others tracking you without also removing their own ability to track you…

The trade off has changed over time as memory access has become a bigger and bigger bottleneck. But caring about this is still "premature optimisation". The claim of 20x program performance difference is overblown.…
Contractor is the wrong metaphor. They're building a house based on a plan already designed by an architect. Software isn't the making of a thing, it's the designing of a thing. Ask an architect how long it will take…
The numbers from the article are: * $300 million for equivalent solar * $200-400 million for equivalent onshore wind (they don't mention offshore wind which is more cost effective over it's lifetime) * $1.5 billion for…
So it's estimated to cost 4x the cost of wind or solar today and it's not being deployed for at least 10yrs. Sounds like a bargain.

Amber Electric in Australia has this same model of passing the wholesale prices on to customers. But they have a cap. "We pass through the 30 minute wholesale prices directly, and this is typically significantly cheaper…

"consumerist capitalism is an environmental disaster" isn't a hard argument to make and people eventually realize most environmentalism is just stacking the deck chairs on the titanic.
This seems completely ridiculous. If it was profitable to do then companies would be doing it directly at the source of emissions more much efficiently.
This is what we do in Australia. Government supported places in courses have a price cap, loans are CPI indexed and paying back the loan is scaled to your pre-tax income. If you earn more then you're required to pay…

Proxying increases the cost and effort of tracking. It's more involved than simply adding a bit of JS to a page. Things like the Facebook 'like' button is a tracker that people adding it to their page won't even realise…
I expect that tracking will just move to being proxied server side. It will be more annoying for the people setting it up but services will spring up to help. Little will change in the advertising and tracking space.
human powered transport like walking or cycling works great in dense cities, it's more space efficient so it scales better too.
