Nope, the warming from the last ice age peaked about 8000 years ago, and turned into (very slow) cooling, until last century when global warming accelerated.
It's just a sign. It's not a safety critical piece of equipment, and very little is lost when it is down for a bit. In fact, the free publicity may be a net positive.
A more effective solution might be to have moveable radiation shielding, have the crew move to a shielded section and fry the other sections enough to kill the microbes, then repeat for the section they were holed up in.
That sounds like an excellent way to deteriorate all the materials inside the ISS.
Once someone has a 3D model of your finger, I wouldn't count on oxygen saturation or impedance to save your ass. I'm sure that clever hackers can figure out a way to fool those too.
When I'm someday a reclusive billionaire, someone will do this by extracting my fingerprints from doorknobs with tape
Or they will find a way to steal fingerprint info from a database. With more applications using fingerprints, it is unavoidable that your fingerprint info will be stored in multiple locations, and it is a single breach away from ending up in the wild. For eternity.
Even if you think about the problem, there's no other answer. You cannot hire a bunch of people and give them a decent salary if your competitor makes the same widgets with fewer people, and offers them for a lower price.
Worst still they decided to use FAT as the filesystem, probably because that's what they had. FAT lacks journaling so a surprise disconnect can corrupt it easily.
Even with journalling, you can easily corrupt flash media, due to internal operations of the flash media firmware (wear levelling). Also, USB sticks are optimized for the particular preformatted FAT system. It's best not to change it.
cutting the usual 10 percent to 20 percent loss to disease of a traditionally farmed cannabis crop to disease to less than 5 percent, they rapidly become economical.
I'm pretty sure that the cost for adding 10% more plants is less than one of those robot systems.
Have you run the numbers comparing the efficiency of each or are you just guessing?
Let's say that one case worker spends an hour per mounth on each welfare beneficiary. That means a small overhead of 0.6%. An hour per month is very generous.
UBI is just another welfare program, but on a bigger scale, and less efficient because the amounts are all the same, rather than optimized for each particular circumstance.
Right. But then again, nobody has stats to show that this will work, and we cannot do a full scale experiment. So, all that's left is to engage our brains and think logically.

without realizing these sorts of things could happen
People are covered in all kinds of micro-organisms, so it makes total sense that they would spread inside people's living and working spaces.

You can create a secure Password, you cant create a (more) secure fingerprint.
Also, if your password is compromised, you can pick a new one.
And, most critically, you can pick a different password for each application.
Except for realizing that the proletariat is just as greedy and lazy as the bourgeoisie, but just less successful.
Not as long as they are part of a market where they "have to" make more profit.
But that's never going to change. People are greedy and those that make more profit can afford more nice things.

it's a treasure trove for any Company who partakes in the " Big Data " business model of knowing anything and everything about everyone.
Don't know about US, but EU regulations are not going to allow 3rd party data snooping.
Consumers will soon need to decide exactly how much faith they want to place in these companies to build out the internet of tomorrow.
What if a consumer doesn't have faith ? What options are there to stop this ?

The three things you mention, we've been doing less in the recent past, compared to "many thousands of years". Doesn't seem to be helping.
So how is holism going to save us ?
they actually sent me a FREE pair of physical socks!
They gave you clothing. You are now a free elf.
Have you run the numbers comparing the efficiency of each or are you just guessing?

Did you run your numbers ?
The problem is that any job under the UBI scheme would be heavily taxed, because that's where the UBI money is coming from.
UBI is just another welfare program, but on a bigger scale, and less efficient because the amounts are all the same, rather than optimized for each particular circumstance.
Right. But then again, nobody has stats to show that this will work, and we cannot do a full scale experiment. So, all that's left is to engage our brains and think logically.
Do you have any stats to back up this assertion?
You don't need stats. People are lazy and greedy, because that's how evolution works.
How would you construct the study?
Ask the participants to give each other a paycheck.
No, pretty sure that they don't disagree. They haven't even read the study.
I mean, both sides are equally valuable.
Agreed. The Lancet study is crap.
But at least red meat is declared completely safe, so there's that.
