The same people who had bad takes about Covid being benign and fake, about AGI risk, about Bitcoin, about how the invasion of Ukraine would be over in 3 days in a total Russian victory, are now telling you that Ukraine needs to cede its territory or else there will be nuclear war

Do you ever feel that some cities are just more alive than others? It's probably because they're "mixed-use". This is a simple idea, but it changes everything...

Why does increasing atmospheric CO₂ warm the planet? The greenhouse effect, duh. But do you know how that works? I can *almost* guarantee you that you don’t quite have the right picture in mind—in a way that actually matters. Interested? Here’s a new physics thread! 1/29
