The real trick of the "With enough eyes all bugs are shallow" is that the function for "enough eyes" is exponential with respect to lines of code, and open source projects don't actually hit it.
Your point could have been made without the racist implicit assumption that "evil chinese" are trying to poison westerners. They just have lax environmental standards, and the people of China are starting to take notice of how badly it hurts their lives, and the government there is begining to cave, just like the early days before the EPA in the USA.
The rise of the East is good for the world, the more places that have an educated middle class, the less room there is for exploitation. It just happens in a way where exploitation goes way up before it goes down.
Ugh, yeah, I bought a "top 25 science fiction stories of [some recent year]" book, and one author had a world where that was a thing, and all the characters(in a poor eastern European city) referred to it as such.
It was so off putting, I almost didn't read the rest of the stories.
It's pretty much the only undeniably bad thing Obama has a personal responsibility for, so anyone with a political axe to grind has to bring it up. And it's not like my thinking Obama was better than any other viable choice makes the NSA thing defensible in any way, shape, or form.
But yeah, someone managed to drag the NSA into a super-volcano discussion the other day, so, please, stick to security, us politics, and similar subjects for tired old discussions, please. There's plenty. We haven't forgotten that it's shitty.
Yeah, that's just because you don't know how little of your productivity you're seeing in wages. If you did, the paltry percentages taken by the government to pay for things you actually use wouldn't seem like a big deal.
You know, except the near religious devotion they get from one political party and the free pass they get from the other major one. You know, ignoring anyone with power to stop them, they only have their sycophants, their financial empires, and other even more corrupt governments to protect them.
Well, sure, except the US has a proven history of spending money on unnecessary military and intelligence budgets when extraordinary domestic issues call.
Right, and it's a demonstration of how poisonous innovative culture in the US is. Everything is about being noticed and spectacle, not about useful ideas, even when targeting so-called experts. Marketing permeates American culture and destroys everyone that doesn't buy into the catastrophic tragedy of the commons it creates.
Airflow has little to do with it. That part is what gets leveled by a shockwave. Multidigit gigatons equivalent. The dust layer chokes out most of the worlds' plants for decades, but not all of them. Humanity is adaptable enough to survive as a species even at current tech levels.
... You know that removing particulate matter requirements from pollution laws has long been circulated as a possible solution to global warming, by way of lowering planetary albedo, right? Humans can trivially reverse the temperature changes if we're willing to suck up some really nasty air.

Think about the people you know who can't read in the car. Reading in the car doesn't make them handle it better next time, they just vomit twice.
We don't need to, we know what the early 1900s cities in the US were like. It was really awful, and people died of lung disease all the time.

Because marketers know how to lie to their bosses.
That was bad, but, come on, it was newly released software. Have you never been spared using a v0.X of anything?

Right. Because the lower class isn't giving their money to the upper class without any regard to their own future, right?
Systemic reduction in wages, and an environment that fosters a lack of competition for workers isn't the fault of workers.
Yeah, that's just because you don't know how little of your productivity you're seeing in wages. If you did, the paltry percentages taken by the government to pay for things you actually use wouldn't seem like a big deal.

You have unimaginably gigantic explosions and these scientists just say "Boy we really need to dust now."
Because "divert blame from the upper class" has become a lucrative job with lots of cash coming in.
Well, sure, except the US has a proven history of spending money on unnecessary military and intelligence budgets when extraordinary domestic issues call.
The article opens with a line explaining why we should ignore whatever this guy says in the video, as he has no useful experience.
Long cancer isn't nearly the problem lung disease is when your particulate matter is high.
I never claimed it would be.

I say we nuke it! Show that volcano some mutually assured destruction. That will bring it in line.
Your failure to predict it will still get you arrested in Italy.
NSA is on the east coast, Yellowbone will just kill the west coast, and starve the rest of the world a little.
I'm sorry, but to count as "new" you have to have something besides replacing the keyword "for" with "analsex" in ansi C.
After reading those two brief wikipedia articles, I now feel confident in my ability to relate these two phenomena to climate change. Thanks!
