PALEONTOLOG: pánové, tohle je auditko o klimatický změně, ne o technikáliích těžby kryptoměn. Díky

PETER_PAN: Jen pro neznale. TSMC je "ta" firma diky ktere mame fyzicky pocitac na stole nebo v ruce. Ma pres 50k zamestnancu a vyrabi chipy pro AMD, Apple, Qualcomm, NVIDIA a mraky dalsich.

Ale reseni je samozrejmne nasnade. Tchaj-wan postavi par odsolovacek na vychodnim brehu (aby vmichaval solanku do lokality kde si ji vezme severni rovnikovy proud).

aspon nekde ma priroda trochu klidu :)

The Untold Story Of Grasses | William Bond
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GAoVZoZpqro


The story of the underdogs that took out their forest adversaries with powerful allies – fire and the great herds. Grasses created an open sunlit world, rich in plants and animals, including those that nurture and feed us and sustain our cities. Now all are threatened by a trillion trees.

Most people don’t think about grass and dismiss ancient grasslands as mere empty space or degraded forests. The open sunlit habitats of half the world have been further neglected in the current tide of media promoting forests and tree planting as a quick fix for climate change.

But grassy biomes have been carving a space in forests for millions of years. They created an alternative sunlit world, the inverse of forests – fire-loving and friendly to herds of herbivores. Ancient old-growth grasslands still exist today. Many are extraordinarily rich in plants and animals, which are restricted to their open, sunlit, grassy habitat. Grasslands have provided the world’s major seed crops, staple food for billions of people. Grassland animals were key to the development of our civilizations, providing transport, food and fiber.

Global plans to plant billions of trees in vast areas could see the collapse of grasslands in the next decade. Our story was motivated by our concern for this impending disaster. This video gives voice to the sunlit, grassy world, calling for wisdom and understanding rather than policies driven by panic and ignorance.

profit z byznysu zalozenem na konzumu a distribuci zbytecnosti bude zachranovat planetu? co kdyby ji svou cinnosti jen nedevastoval? elektricka auta zachrani klima? ona existuje ekologicka individualni automobilova doprava? je to populismus, naivita nebo nepochopeni problemu? je to jen dalsi byznys?
jen dalsi prymulada, vysmech?
nebo je toto efektivni altruismus a inspirace ostatnim?

Ancient relic points to a turning point in Earth's history 42,000 years ago
https://phys.org/news/2021-02-ancient-relic-earth-history-years.html
"Earth's magnetic field dropped to only 0-6 percent strength during the Adams Event," says Prof. Turney.
"We essentially had no magnetic field at all—our cosmic radiation shield was totally gone."



While the magnetic poles often wander, some scientists are concerned about the current rapid movement of the north magnetic pole across the Northern Hemisphere.

"This speed—alongside the weakening of Earth's magnetic field by around nine percent in the past 170 years—could indicate an upcoming reversal," says Prof. Cooper.

"If a similar event happened today, the consequences would be huge for modern society. Incoming cosmic radiation would destroy our electric power grids and satellite networks."

Prof. Turney says the human-induced climate crisis is catastrophic enough without throwing major solar changes or a pole reversal in the mix.

"Our atmosphere is already filled with carbon at levels never seen by humanity before," he says. "A magnetic pole reversal or extreme change in Sun activity would be unprecedented climate change accelerants.

"We urgently need to get carbon emissions down before such a random event happens again."

PALEONTOLOG: ano, ty spekulativní dotace i ze strany minerů jsou problém. když zaplatíš za transakci v BTC dolar, tak to rozhodně neznamená, že těžaři spálili elektřiny za dolar - ve skutečnosti to zainvestovali a bylo jí násobně tolik.

ale v jistém smyslu tohle platí i pro prosté vyledávání u Googlu.. to, že je pro koncového uživatele "zadarmo" neznamená, že nemá enviromentální stopu...

YMLADRIS: nikdy jsem nerekl, ze decentralizovana mena nema zadnej prinos. zpochybnuju jen konkretni design bitcoinu a rikam, ze existuji mechanismy, jak dosahnout toho sameho s mensi energii. treba u jinych krypto.

zaroven rikam, ze v takove chvili, ve ktere se nachazime, je na miste ty neuzitecne, "plytvajici" consumery vypnout. asi nejlepsi prirovnani je zakaz napousteni vlastnich bazenu v dobe sucha.

prekvapuje me, ze zrovna ty obhajujes energetickou spotrebu krypta, kdyz tu dva+ roky mluvis o tom, ze se lidstvo blizi do katastrofy a melo by se uskromnit. ani ja jsem tu nikdy netvrdil, ze "do nothing" scenar je ten nejlepsi mozny a nakonec me tu spousta lidi v zachrane klimatu presvedcuji, ze konzumace elektriny velikosti argentiny je zadouci a v budoucnosti to jiste ocenime :)

..asi konec tohohle tematu, musel jsem jeste reagovat na nepochopeni

SHEFIK: myslim, ze v tomto je to jadro. ty v decentralizovane mene nevidis zadnej prinos.

jakou vymyslet analogii. kolik treba demokraticke staty stoji provoz jejich decentralizovanych instituci, kdyz veci je prece mnohem jednodussi naridit shora/centralne. nevim jestli uz nekdo niz psal o failed states kde uz dnes jsou stastni ze krypto existuje. mozna to souvisi s tvoji optimistickou predstavou o budoucnosti

PALEONTOLOG: druha nejbohatsi entita bude clovek co tezil btc na grafarne od roku 2010 a zapomnel na to a prvni nejbohatsi spojene elektricke zavody, kterym dluzi za elektrinu (red dwarf :D )

SHEFIK: lepší, nebo spíš hodnotnější trustless koncept zatím není. ale řeší se projekty na bázi PoS, mají svá úskalí a byť v kapitalizaci nesahají btc po kotníky, tak jsou technicky mnohem dál. ukáže čas, on i ten bitcoin třeba za chvíli vyčpí a po posledním půlení, pak už budou těžaří dostávat za odměnu jen poplatky z transakcí co vytěží, buď vyroste cena btc extrémně vysoko, nebo se prostě jen se upraví hashrate tak, aby to dávalo smysl počítat. on jako někdo to bude nejspíš chtít těžit vždycky, otázka je kolik těch za tu cenu bude. někteří to klidně budou i dotovat.
