You mean the Trump who wants to make a Space Force to proactively protect the Earth from asteroids - vs the green party who want to halt all progress and the left in general who want to defend the "rights" of native Hawaiians who don't even live/work anywhere near the peak of this volcano while telling the rest of the world "doesn't matter if it's the best place in literally the whole planet to build a telescope, because some politically correct garbage."
What benefits will they gain from a big telescope being nearby?
It's basically the best location on Earth for a ground-based telescope due to local climate and air conditions.
Also.... it's literally just named Thirty Meter Telescope?
It was named by scientists, be glad it wasn't some absurd string of latin words translating roughly to "the glowy ring things from sonic the hedgehog."
You've clearly never visited Hawaii OR obtained even a cursory understanding of the issue here. The anti-science ones in this issue are the green party and native Hawaiians.
Quantum computers are also a thing and will obsolete bitcoin by 2023-2025. There is no secure post-quantum algorithm which is under 31kb/signature. There is no way to condense individual transaction akin to the lightning network while dropping the initiator's signature altogether without making it inherently centralized. At that point you might as well forgo the petabytes of data storage and analysis to verify each transaction and just leave it in bank databases - no additional security or decentralization either way. (To say nothing of the fact it will take several years to make the transition to post-quantum algorithms as it has to be initiated by each wallet-holder individually, so we're basically at the point right now where everyone has to start converting to post-quantum algorithms or it dies off entirely.) Every cryptographic professional knows this limitation, meaning everyone pushing Bitcoin is either ignorant or knowingly misleading people.
The solar wind is going to prefer the side it hits, even the best insulators have leakage. That's going to be a very directional thrust, a full cycle of which is one day, but we don't plan around space elevators being up for a day or week or month, but for decades or more. That is an absolutely ridiculous amount of constant thrust. Rockets are better because they only actually move the Earth equal to the mass and speed of the rocket, they aren't like some always-on jet stream you can jump inside of 0.0000001% of the time to get to orbit while applying similar thrust the rest of the time to the whole Earth as a space elevator would be.
You don't get to pick and choose beforehand - that's called premeditated murder. Leave the decision to the driver in-the-moment and ban self-driving cars outright.
I love how you link an article on space tethers without any negative mentions in it, then appended "lol change is bad".
What is your reasons for hating this?
I linked an article on electrodynamic tethers because the rationale seemed obvious, but since it's apparently not:
1) electrodynamic tethers function by using a charged cable to exploit electrodynamic effects of larger magnetic bodies to cause movement.
2) a space elevator is a giant fucking cable, a conductive one will develop a relative charge naturally, an insulating one will maintain a constant charge thanks to the solar wind keeping the far end heavily charged.
3) the sun has a magnetic field just like the Earth or anything else someone might use an electrodynamic tether attached to a spacecraft to cause a propulsive effect.
4) a space elevator would inadvertently exploit this effect to fling the Earth toward or away from the sun, more or less at random.
5) it will literally kill us all if we deploy one (either by freezing or burning, depending which way we get flung, or both if it only puts us into a highly elliptical orbit before we cut it loose.)
TL;DR: space elevators are bad.
Code.org was from the start a scam to saturate the CS labor pool to attain cheaper talent. The issue with the whole idea is that there's only so many people capable of actually thinking on the level required to take up transcribing their thoughts and making machines obey them, let alone transcribing the thoughts of other people to make the machines obey those. So basically a bunch of corrupt businessmen and market makers decided "labor is too expensive, we need a scam to make it cheaper" and ended up blowing a shitload of money to learn the hard way that "wow, you really can't teach the retarded masses." Whether they will internalize that to the level required to understand "the programmers are actually smarter than us" is another matter, chances are their egos will prevent that.
BPA we pretty much know how to deal with. Dont store the cans in hot places like a closed car, and dont cook your food in the can.
So what you're saying is it's a preemptive attack to ensure that when they start the zombie apocalypse all the plebs inadvertently turn themselves into effeminate numales by scavenging canned foods and are easily overtaken by the more masculine zombie hordes?
That is the true story of Bill Gates, not all this love-fest BS now that Allen is gone.
Also, Allen was a really shitty person: single handedly responsible for the destruction of ~80% of the world's corals reefs by parking his various yachts over them and letting the anchors drift around for months on end, then blamed global warming (and got some people to believe him.)
Common misconception. You are confused about the fact that all theories are falsifiable but that's NOT the same thing as saying that they cannot be correct
I'm not confused, I'm a scientist. I'm also not some pop-sci hack who believes in absolute truth irregardless to the measurement context.
Entropy is an idea which correlates with experiments, so is relativity, quantum mechanics, etc. No experiment has been done which rules out time travel (or reversing entropy for that matter,) we can only even rule anything out within extremely precise contexts, outside those contexts there are no known rules. Moreover, relativity clearly predicts the ability to time travel (in fact, we know how to do all the calculations for it from ergospheres around rotating black holes right now - the only real question for engineering that is making such a thing traversible without killing the traveller.)

What's the mass of the electrodynamic tether compared to that of the Earth?
Small constant thrust adds up fast.

Sadly, this is not even a joke. A space elevator will do more damage to the Earth than all previous events in the history of the planet combined.

The packages weren't postmarked when they were photographed on camera and released in news stories: they never went through the postal service.
Since when are short sellers people?

Hell, Obama flew over personally to threaten Britain into voting remain and no one raised a shitfit about America "influencing" a British election.
To be fair, that's because Britain's our bitch.
They most certainly can be proven correct and are routinely.
No theory has ever been proven correct, and they cannot be by definition. They can only be invalidated or not-yet-invalidated-in-known-contexts.
First, even if QCs ever work for reasonably sized problems, it will take a long, long time for them to get there.
TIL 5 years is a long time.
Hooktube is a backup.

They just want the censorship features to use them in voter manipulation.
