Go to Google Scholar and type in the paper's title - often there will be a link to a publically available copy of the pdf, such as is the case for reference 1. And you sound like you made up your mind before even really…
Sorry haven't got much time at the moment, here's the paper that got me interested Anti-tumoral action of cannabinoids: Involvement of sustained ceramide accumulation and extracellular signal-regulated kinase activation…
I'm happy to hear uranium will last for a long time, gives us a good alternative if the sun ever stopped shining (e.g. massive volcano or asteroid). But it doesn't really change the economics. China's newly installed…
So may the best one of us win. My most profitable investments have been based on other people's myopia, and it is a far sweeter victory than scoring points in an online discussion forum.
Ok, let's find some common ground: we agree current nuclear reactors "could be a lot better". With very finite uranium, coal, and oil deposits on earth these forms of energy generation are only a short-term solution. As…
They will. I'm an investor, i like to make money, and i hate losing it. So i'm happy there's still someone else on the other side of the trade :-)
Solar, wind & batteries will power the future. It is a question of when not if. All others will fade into oblivion. So long, and thanks for all the Joules.
Recent large-scale research suggests dose-risk relationship holds at small doses for leukemia: http://www.nature.com/news/researchers-pin-down-risks-of-low...
Short advice: get a low-cost physically-replicating ETF covering a large part of the market (e.g. Vanguard) and dollar-cost average. This is the ultra-low-effort average returns approach. Stock picking advice and…
It would be great if externalities were insured by everybody, yes. But externalities are real, why would you ignore them "out of fairness"? The sane thing to do is to consider them for all kinds of power generation, and…

What exactly do you mean? It's too expensive? Legally impossible? No insurer would insure this? It's a thought experiment to show what replacing wishful thinking with a tiny amount of objectivity would look like. OP was…
It would be good if these risks were objectively valued, for example by insuring the plant against meltdown costs. Total economic loss estimates for the Fukushima meltdown are 250-500 bn USD[1]. And if the wind had been…
I would state it differently. Derivatives can be quite useful for the economy, because they allow people to offload risk, e.g. companies can hedge their commodity or exchange rate risks. They become a problem in banks…
You've hit the nail on the head, the derivatives they have on their books are massive compared to shareholder equity. "Counterparty risk" are the words nobody analysing bank's derivatives positions wants to hear. It's a…
A lot of these people got hooked on opiates through a prescription from their doctor. These doctors prescribing opiates before trying medical marijuana for pain management are endangering the wellbeing and lives of…
That's a lot of lives that medical marijuana might have saved.
Could nuclear advocates please include cost of insurance in their calculations? Because insurers seem to know a bit more about extreme value statistics and long-tail risk, unlike governments or nuclear power advocates.…
According to that paper (table 3), the UK is number one per capita, and Germany is rank 5.
Most new panels announced these days top 20% efficiency[1]. Output is guaranteed to 90% after 10 years, 80% after 20, real world often better[2]. [1] https://www.greentechmedia.com/articles/read/Is-SolarCitys-N... [2]…
That analysis uses solar panels with 10% efficiency in its calculations...
I agree 100%. I didn't mean to attack you personally, it's just very easy to become blind to things that don't affect you personally. The last paragraph of the blog post touches on this as well. I still think it would…
I am from Germany. Bavarian police is famous here. They do profiling based on your looks, it is called "Verdachtsunabhängige Personenkontrolle". I have heard plenty of complaints from people living in Bavaria, e.g.…
Perhaps you think that police are friendly and helpful because of your experiences. So here is a guess: you are white, you have a standard hairstyle, you wear standard clothes. Perhaps we could experimentally test your…
