  1. That's what they're betting on. It's why suppressing free public access to knowledge and education is part of the agenda.
  2. Yes. Quoting Projct 225:

    > Break Up NOAA ... NOAA consists of six main offices ... Together, these form a colossal operation that has become one of the main drivers of the climate change alarm industry and, as such, is harmful to future U.S. prosperity. This industry’s mission emphasis on prediction and management seems designed around the fatal conceit of planning for the unplannable. That is not to say NOAA is useless, but its current organization corrupts its useful functions. It should be broken up and downsized. NOAA today boasts that it is a provider of environmental information services, a provider of environmental stewardship services, and a leader in applied scientific research. Each of these functions could be provided commercially, likely at lower cost and higher quality.

    Tldr: shut down NOAA to suppress climate change evidence, research, and preparedness; outsource to private industry the remaining parts that are considered directly useful for commerce.

    Is it any wonder that the CEO of Accuweather Barry Myers was a Trump donor who became a NOAA head administrator appointee in Trump's first term? The appointment fortunately failed. Now they're trying again.

  4. Would you be able to go into more detail on this? An example maybe? It might be useful for someone like me who's "interested in Rust" but hasn't tried it (yet).
  5. Would this be possible with a patch-based version control system like Darcs or Pijul? Does patch-based version control have other analogous security risks, or is it "better" in this case?
  6. Articles like this always make me wonder about the effect of technology, particularly easy access to the Internet at all times, on my generation (born in the late 80s and early 90s).

    That discussion -- about attention spans, finding exactly what you're looking for versus having to interpret a static document, etc. -- has been had a million times on this site and elsewhere. But it struck me that he didn't ask for digests or something like that. For Napoleon, evidently there was more to these books than their information content alone.
