I had the same question a few hours ago, but I found some science.
Tldr: 30% of energy use is in diesel, and about half of that is for tilling fields.
Rant:
Note that this is energy use, so only CO2 emissions are counted, while methan is ignored. If we stopped farming animals, the effective emissions of the sector would be cut in half. Even if we are unwilling to change out diet, maybe we should look at reducing the amount of fertilizer instead.
I can hike for 12h with a big backpack, but standing for 8h is horrible.
Yes, just look at that weird tear.
I suck at image manipulation, and even I would be able to align the hand and the fish somewhat.
The main problem is that, not ploughing increases the need for pesticides, currently around 8% of energy used and reduces yield. While not ploughing increasing requiring 3x the pesticides might not be the case, a 20% reduction in yield seems plausible.
The main energy consumption in farming is fertilizer at around 50%, but more importantly half the emissions are related to animal agriculture. Cutting back on that would actually make a difference.


Don’t trust us until you are here!
The government is defying the supreme court, by refusing to provide visas for people, that are thoroughly vetted and helped us against the taliban on the condition that they get visas.
The commenter must believe forks are magic.
and like half the [rust] devs left for Crab.
Crablang is a joke fork to make fun of a trademark screw up by the rust foundation.
Requiring consent of the donor (or their family) may seem silly, but removing that safeguard would inevitably lead to both abuse of the organ donation system,
I believe that the increase in legal and ethical supply would reduce the amount abuse.
and also a distrust of the system […]
That’s the real problem, but an opt out system would be a good compromise.
Philosophically, it’s also important to note that the organs aren’t actually harvested from corpses per se, but a heavily sedated person (who may or may not still be showing brain activity). They rule the death before they’ve harvested the organs, I think, but the person still being alive at the time of harvest is a big deal for organ viability. […]
The question is how you define personhood, but if you ask me, the body is alive, but the person is dead.
The point here is that it’s inherently an ethically dicey proposition, similar to how deciding to switch off someone’s life support of a non-donor can be a big decision for families and/or doctors.
No, in that case the person could be alive, maybe even conscious, but unable to interact with the world ever again.
In a way, the consent requirement can be seen as a way of sidestepping the messy philosophical questions like “what even counts as being alive”.
It doesn’t, because the consent is given when the person is still alive and only applies once they are considered dead.
Ethically, it’s by far the safest approach.
It doesn’t solve any of the questions around the definition of death, only concerns about the treatment of dead bodies. The same effect could be achieved with an opt out system, instead of the current opt in one.
Exactly, you never know when you want to change the base for printing out from under someone.
What unholy mix of languages is that?
It is dominated by a blend of javascript and python, but with notes of something exotic. Maybe algol? or vhdl?, there is to little to tell.
Impressive, someone write up a spec and publish it to the esolang wiki.
The code seems to be C-style language with curly braces and types in front for variable declarations, probably java. This means the variable must be declared of screen before the loop or it would not compile. It could have a previous value or be uninitialized, but that does not affect the end result.
Segmentation fault, you forgot to take the reference and derefenced a null pointer.
Because the only brainfuck instructions in your comment where a - which decrements and 20 +, each of which increments.
Mine echos the first two characters from stdin, because of the commas and dots.


Das ist den Bayern egal, die haben kein Meer.


It’s either printf and stack unwinding in assembly or something to test all possible execution path for very simple multi threaded programms.
If you prefer to use web technology, make a website, otherwise use a native gui library.
If your website needs to interact with the OS (for stuff like files) or you just want people to have it locally, don’t use electron, publish a small binary that hosts the website on localhost.
I know you can stand out creatively, so make the most of it.
Here in germany forks are feminine and spoons are masculine, goes to show you how made up supposedly innate gender roles are.
