    I am amused but not surprised that your reply is currently at 0, Troll. Also amused at how the Warmists think they don't have to provide extraordinary evidence for their extraordinary claims. There are too many people making too much money from the whole climate scam for it to go away quickly.

    Only the jobs that are high-paying / high status need to be "diversified". Everyone knows that!

    Thanks, I'll check that out. I was thinking along the lines of a site where you could have a live-updated split screen where the results of entered program text commands would be displayed graphically by highlighting both the CLI and the GUI. Say, for example, the Unix cat or cut commands - illustrating exactly what they do via live animation.

    Maybe such a thing already exists and I'm using the wrong keywords to find it and maybe I'm not explaining clearly what I mean (which could be ironic - trying to explain in text a system where graphics would be used to explain what entering text commands does).

    Or perhaps it would have to be just non-interactive animation based on common tasks.

    "global warming (is) real"

    For now it is, since the Earth is coming out of an ice age anyway. But the left's whole let's-reinvent-the-world-economy-to-fix-it nonsense has waaay too much Mott and Bailey manipulation going on for most of it to be anything more than a money and power grab. Sorry to question your belief system.

    Isn't it wonderful that the western countries (whose birthrates are actually declining) are taking these measures to save the planet while there are seemingly few concerns about population growth outside of the western countries?

    That climate change agenda sure is odd and I'm starting to suspect what it's really all about. Hmmm...

    Because politicians and government bureaucracies love it.

    Apparently everyone dislikes and distrusts politicians and government bureaucracies except on this single issue. On this single issue, politicians and government bureaucracies are correct and doing the right thing and everything will go swimmingly.
