This technique is explicitly frowned upon in a number of licensing tests. Hand is required to be completely on throttle, or all four fingers completely on brake. So I'm not sure "completely irresponsible" is the right term, a

What you are suggesting is basically unenforceable. How would you know what’s in a cameras frame? What do the police do with that register? That sounds like it’s just helpful for them. If it’s only a registration and not an approval process

As others have pointed out, you are essentially advocating for non-enforcement of speed limits. Which feels an arbitrary line to draw. What about other road rules? Driving on the right side? Using unregistered vehicles? Countries like India

What is a licensed security camera? By this logic, are you saying cameras on private property, that happen to capture public space in their frame are also illegal?

Sorry, I should have clarified my question further. They already broke their promises on Hong Kong. So I was asking what the other promises people think they won’t break? Like are we talking Taiwan? Or something in mainland China? Hence: wh

Isn’t this why solar is good. We already have the heat sink (earth) we just aren’t using the energy.

I missed the citation on his education point. Has someone proved that “teaching to the test” leads to lower educational outcomes than not having tests?

Two distinct expressions that happen to share words. Is how I thought of it. Certainly in the context of the OP it seems he is not presenting an either or but a change course.

Sometimes a metaphor doesn’t make sense so you might abandon it for another rather than trying to stretch it. Sometimes when fishing you catch something your rod or skill level is not capable of reeling in. So you are better to cut the line

Perhaps micro wallets should be a thing where your wealth is distributed across many keys mitigating some loss.

No it isn’t. No more than a wallet key. If I lose $1 note. It’s gone. If I recover it, then it’s no longer lost.

Because we have power lines and batteries now, so solar can be where the sun is, and consumption can be where it isn't. I guess I'm envisioning a future where there is a lot more solar panels than there is consumption, meaning we

But choosing nuclear power doesn't remove our need for semiconductors, so it's a bit weird to attribute that to solar. The fabrication of of panels is more analogous to fission material mining. As in you are procuring the material

Right so pick a metric that highly favours nuclear because its been around longer. And ignore common sense that leaving inert rocks in the sun is fundamentally less dangerous than super heating water with highly toxic and unstable materials

Is it? That's the thing we literally mass produce in factories. I think it's the machinery to do voltage conversions and transmission that is the critical cost factor.

But there was only evidence of a reduction in temperature in your link. Which would actually increase the effectiveness of Solar. The idea of a global darkness for a significant period of time, would be extinction level.

Radiation destroys DNA and directly causes cancer. That's the super obvious link. Your deliberate avoidance doesn't change that fact. Because of this are a bunch of safety protocols in the extraction, transportation, storage and u

I think any project is going to need some form of capacitor as a grid would just become unstable if you dump a huge amount of peak solar onto it without the consumption. So either way you need batteries, and all the problems they bring. Jus

It's not fair to point out very real impacts of Nuclear failures. But it's fair to compare to hypothetical-yet-to-occur "Mass Solar failures". Solar relies on Light, just like life does. So you are kind of referring to m

There are batteries included as part of this project. So I don't think time really matters.
