A relatively steady 2-3mm or less per year (in most parts of the world) would be max 180mm, or 18cm over 60 years.
Most people, at most beaches, would not even notice this difference over that great a time period. In fact it is indistinguishable in comparison photographs even on certain Florida beaches which are well-known to be subsiding in addition to any ocean rise.
Just FYI, I have noticed over a period of years that this "Angel" person has often been an opinionated, agressive, and mean-spirited arguer. My best suggestion is that he/she is probably not worth your time.
Sea level rise has NOT accelerated, and the report that found oceans were absorbing more heat than previously thought was found to have fundamental -- it is not unfair to say fatal -- mathematical flaws.
The truth is that the data does not support that conclusion. At all.
And while fresh water on many smaller islands has always been an issue, it is not one that can be attributed to AGW-caused "climate change".
And its name is a misnomer, since anything that works over RF can be accessed at an arbitrary distance, given a large enough antenna and the proper electronics.
NFC was cracked by Christopher Siobhan, with equipment that could read NFC information at a distance from cards equipped with the technology, with $200 worth of hardware.
BEFORE it was ever widely adopted or included in smartphones. Only 1 or maybe 2 phone models advertised it as a feature at the time. And it wasn't yet a common feature of debit or credit cards.
This could change radically if companies that are in information-oriented jobs, such as design, graphic arts, and programming, would get off their butts and gear up for remote work, which is quite possible and even saves a lot of money (not to mention transportation, lost time, and pollution).
I've worked that way for 10 years. Unfortunately, too many companies still want to waste time having people relocate to a suburb, miles away from work, and commute each way. An hour each way = 10 hour days instead of 8, or 12 hour days rather than 10.
By the way: even though the Paris accord was never ratified by the Senate (so we were never officially part of it anyway), the U.S. is still the only major country that has actually been reducing emissions.

Why is anyone surprised by any of this?
This NCA was created by the Obama administration, not Trump, and the report was drafted before Trump was even elected.
Get a clue, people.

Here are two revealing reports about the "ocean heat" paper.
Author Resplandy has responded and thanked Mr Lewis for catching the mistakes.
A Major Problem With The Resplandy Paper

Bullshit.
I'd rather live on welfare than let a company chip me.
That's something you do to pets, not people.
And it's not even secure.
It's Near Field Communication, not "coupling".

Not automatically. That would depend on the terms of the contest.
Although, TBH, I have a hard time imagining they did not include "actually visit the site" as one of their terms.
But you never know until you read them.
People on Slashdot still use Facebook?
I thought this was a higher-IQ demographic. I may need to rethink.
And it still doesn't amount to either empirical data or actual "evidence".
Model all you like. Have great fun. It still isn't evidence.
Because of their TOS.
Read it.
And not in a good way.
Agree. The number should be a lot closer to zero.

The "what, exactly?" is wealth redistribution.
The alarmists don't want to allow "third world" countries to develop their own energy systems, fossil-fuel or not.
Instead they want to take from the rich and give to the poor, Robinhood style.
But that doesn't solve anything. In the long run it just makes everyone poorer.
Editing errors. Still, the links work and are genuine.
Conveniently, IPCC doesn't mention that the Antarctic ozone hole in 2015, just 3 years ago, was very close to as large as it's ever been. (Largest was in 2017.)

In fact, the data shown in the graph I linked to shows no apparent trend at all.
Just more propaganda BS.
Further, unlike you, I don't go around accusing people of being things they're not, or doing things they don't, while hiding behind Anonymous Coward.
You're the one who is clueless.
I've had this account for many years. I don't make any bones about the fact that it's a pseudonym. Most people who know me know who I actually am.
And a pseudonym is far different from an Anonymous Coward. Slashdot's own moderators use pseudonyms, dumbass.
"Common sense" says nothing of the sort.
However, I do recall, now that I have been reminded, that the study I referred to may have made some unwarranted assumptions.
On the other hand, apparently so does the report you linked to. Which does not appear to be a peer-reviewed paper.
Not enough courage to post your actual name?
That's interesting.
George W Bush is, and has always been, a closet Progressive.
He's no right-winger.
Read his father's book about globalism and New World Order.
By the way: it turns out the same guy left even MORE messages of the same sort on Twitter.
So how is this Gab's fault?
They really are all part of the same thing.
But this "splitting" it up into different fields is an attempt by some people to over-specialize.
Over-specialization, in turn, is an attempt to get paid more for doing less.
Actually, it has been proposed to make Daylight Savings Time the standard time everywhere, all year.
The reason is that even in winter, it gives people more waking daylight hours than Standard Time does.
