That's stupid. Whose private property will the air fall under if we abolish the government? OK, suppose it's yours. How are you even remotely capable of protecting your private property from exploitation by others without government regulation?
Private property exists because regulations exist to protect private property. Regulation creates things like mineral rights and spectrum rights and land deeds.
People keep talking about getting the "perfect" random number. Since when is the random number the weakest link in security? Just throw some mouse, keyboard, microphone input into your pseudorandom number generator, and it's impractical to break.
Frankly, it's usually the less mathematically astute individuals who are playing the lottery in the first place. I have nothing against people who play for fun, but if you are playing for a chance to get rich then you are mistaken.
I agree that we should reduce the work week. Hell, we should reduce it to a few hours a week. But this will be met with great resistance from the capitalists. It would significantly reduce the GDP. It costs more to train three people than one, and it takes more management and meetings to get everyone on the same page.
Flywheels are great for short term energy storage for balancing high transient power usages. Some energy is lost over time due to imperfect bearings, so if you wanna store long term, the train might be a better option. Even batteries lose energy, but this train could conceivably store energy for ages. The Alcator C-Mod power system uses a 120 ton alternator rotor which stores 500MJ at 1800RPM and an additional 75 ton flywheel which stores 1500MJ at 1800RPM. https://www-internal.psfc.mit....
Eventually we will get to the point where AI figures it all out, tries to dumb it down enough for us to understand, fails, gets frustrated, and gives up trying to explain it to puny humans.
Why is the law relevant here? Zuckerberg is defending the public opinion of Facebook. Zuckerberg is free to say whatever he wants, but the court of public opinion is a lot more fickle than the court of law, and has a lot more teeth when applied to a corporation (in contrast to a person).
Speaking Cantonese and speaking Mandarin are not mutually exclusive, you know. Mandarin is taught throughout China, so many people are (at least) bilingual.
As a cyclist, I find that the vast majority of choking pollution comes from a minority of vehicles: old beater trucks and cars, motorcycles, oversized pickup trucks, and industrial vehicles.
It's not just externalities that are a problem. Fossil fuels are finite, as well, so the current price greatly underestimates its future value. In theory, speculators and the futures market are supposed to correct this problem, but the market is distorted by the limited lifetime of speculators and financial systems. Speculators are looking to cash in some time in their lifetime, and before the government collapses, so they aren't interested in the far future value of petroleum, which is likely much, much higher than the cost of energy.

Yes, it would be a derivative work. It doesn't matter if you change the format.

Everywhere you look, you see tragedy of the commons. But the libertarians continue to blame regulation.
Tell me, every time you wait in line for TSA anal probing, don't you prefer speed over security?
It's more gradual. Robots replace some human jobs, but humans are still needed at various steps.

How much air do you think you can practically store?
You don't want rocket fuel in your car? You are missing out.
If it's found unconstitutional, then it's not law.
You should do something about it. Or continue to accept it without complaints.
Try trillions of cheap labor.
There aren't anywhere near a trillion people. Unless, you are part of the "every sperm is sacred" camp.

There aren't enough chairs being thrown these days.
Of course people are openly hostile against conservatives. That's because conservatives want to bring us back a century or two.

The Indian companies must get something out of it, otherwise they wouldn't do it.

That's better than recycling. Reduce > Reuse > Recycle.
