What you really need is a designator in the user interface that lets you know whether a wall clock time is pre- or post-changing of the clock, and then also train people in the use of it.
I don't really want food to have a longer shelf life. I want fresh food
Most fruit has a limited harvest season, and plenty of fruit needs to be transported long distances and cannot be picked fresh. If you insist on truly fresh food, your choice will be very limited.
Translation from one human language to another is a different problem than understanding the semantics of natural language.
I would agree for a crude translation. However, as you want to approach 100% accuracy in translation, understanding of language becomes essential. Look at how Google translates jokes or song lyrics.
It's good that we understand how humans acquire natural language well enough that 'just make the computer do it that way' is a plan.
We don't understand how humans acquire knowledge of Go, yet people made a computer that started from nothing and learned it simply by playing itself and discovering all the knowledge.
The same method has been used in many different machine learning applications, and it seems to work pretty well, regularly scoring much better results than a human.
But the reality is inside 10-15 years Musk will be making round trips to Mars and back.
A more reastic schedule is that in 10-15 years time, the BFR will finally be operational and could fly towards Mars. He doesn't even have the plans for the rest.
all models now being wrong in terms of some excess heat taken up by the oceans.
The models all had quite wide error bars. Increased understanding of ocean heat transfer will make the error bars slightly smaller, but most likely still contained within the old ones.
There are model calculations for that. Go look them up if you're interested. Of course, it's not a very plausible scenario, so I can imagine that there's only limited interest in exploring it.
it is accepted that it is occurring and that we MUST do something about it.
Really ? According to this recent interview, Trump doesn't think it's urgent at all. He wants to wait until it swings back again. In that case, we don't need nukes.
President Donald Trump is backing off his claim that climate change is a hoax but says he doesn’t know if it’s manmade and suggests that the climate will “change back again.”
In an interview with CBS’ “60 Minutes” that aired Sunday night, Trump said he doesn’t want to put the U.S. at a disadvantage in responding to climate change.
“I think something’s happening. Something’s changing and it’ll change back again,” he said. “I don’t think it’s a hoax. I think there’s probably a difference. But I don’t know that it’s manmade. I will say this: I don’t want to give trillions and trillions of dollars. I don’t want to lose millions and millions of jobs.”

We do "not" in scare Scare quotes, and claiming what "we do not". Who is he to tell this person what "we do" or we do not do.
They aren't quotes, they are asterisks. They are just there for emphasis.

That's caused by sloppy programming.

No, he knows what he's talking about. How can you doubt a guy called 'Kneebone' ?
Population growth is flattening.
At best, that's only a temporary phenomenon. You cannot stop evolution.

When Catholics tell you that they're feeding you flesh of Christ and letting you drink blood of Christ at mass, do you take them literally also?
Catholics really do believe it's literally the flesh and blood of Christ:

The real number is actually 1 out of 3, but they massaged the numbers a bit.

Computers are good at games with strict rules. We all know that.
The rules don't describe what a winning Go position looks like. And yet, that's what they learn to figure out, even better than humans.

Either the oceans don't affect the climate change all that much and the panic is unwarranted
Right. Increased ocean heat will only add a little bit to future surface warming.
I do, but plenty of people are still denying it.
Before we can even bring nuclear to the table as a potential solution, we must first agree there's a problem.
More likely is that the (deep) ocean heat does not really affect the surface temperature all that much.
