I wonder if they might actually allow immigrants, while the birth rate other places is still higher. They have less of a reputation for xenophobia than, say, Japan.

IIRC the people at the UN said something similar. They gave a few projections, and commented that the low ones seem most likely and might still be too liberal.
Brave New World baby factories when?
Man, I've got to watch that sometime. It's been famously underrated for so long it almost counts as hype.
That's double-digit. How many would qualify as a lot?
The lights turn on, and the cockroaches scatter. Look at that.
I actually respect people who are racists and open about it, in a way. They're very wrong, and obviously resistant to education on why, but at least they're being true to what they think is right. A lot of these people have to know they're rotten on some level.
Interesting. I wonder why they didn't just move it to somewhere with less radiation? And clearly, they have another more trustworthy machine doing the checking somehow. A self-correcting OS would have to parity check it's parity checks somehow, which I'm sure is possible, but would be kind of novel.
In a really ugly environment, you might have to abandon semiconductors entirely, and go back to vacuum as the magical medium, since it's radiation proof (false vacuum apocalypse aside). You could make a nuvistor integrated "chip" which could do the same stuff; the biggest challenge would be maintaining enough emissions from the tiny and quickly-cooling cathodes.
That's what I would have thought. What exactly is a typical alternative approach, commercially? Open source projects might maintain a wiki or traditional website, and documentation files within the source itself.
Also in professional env if a company cares about it’s trade secrets it will not rely on 3rd party solutions for all of it’s communications.
This one is big, and shouldn't just be professional environments. People rely on open spy devices in both environments because they're dumb.
Element would be a great alternative. Signal would also be decent.
I wonder if there's an available OS that parity checks every operation, analogous to what's planned for Quantum computers.
Crops in western America might fail, but the whole world isn't America. Yields move, and 2023-2024 was a record harvest globally.
Don't take my word for it, there's an actual scientist elsewhere in the thread.
Humans are fucking stupid.
Well, we can agree on that. The human reaction to "the world is ending" is usually giving up. Which is why we shouldn't say that unless the science supports that, which it doesn't quite.
Exactly. Those are puppets. Nobody's expecting the puppeteer to fight the puppets.
Ah, what glamour! /s
