To be fair, the one raising this point, Wyden, is a Democrat.

Trump's secrets are already out there, and his supporters really don't care. They never will at this point. He's not vulnerable to blackmail.

They should mention thermal expansion, which is also a major driver of sea-level rise.

We're all of us speeding towards a cliff that ends in environmental disaster.

And if you point that out, you get downvoted to invisibility on Hacker News and elsewhere.

Randy Meisner was not trying "to" love again. Usage settled.

Bill Atkinson and Andy Hertzfeld were my childhood heroes through their work. Inside Macintosh was a series that enlightened my teen years. Thanks, Bill.

Please don't spike this as political. If U.S. democracy breaks down, as this event portends, it will absolutely have an effect on startups.

Isn't that in fact true? Emotional or not.

Asserting that there is strong evidence against a claim is not "debunking" a claim.

Agreed. The best part is that you don't need to second-guess decisions wondering whether or not the course of action is better financially for the decision-maker.

They cheated on the ethics exam, THEN they lied about their cheating.

People who went to Harvard always manage to slyly communicate they went to Harvard. Including the author of this article. Good for you, dear!

This is true. If you are from a bad class background, as a Maoist would put it, you are at a significant disadvantage when applying to the UC system.

Namecheap is good. I've been using them for many years, no complaints.

There are many more record highs recorded since the 1980's than record lows. That's climate change.

Promise me, Geoff.

Lobbyists are not trying to bring expert information to elected officials. They are trying to influence public policy to the benefit of the people or organizations paying them.

It's a few pages before it becomes California-specific.

I don't know about sea level rise prediction accuracy, but temperature "hindcasts" hold up pretty well:

Here the Woods Hole oceanographers talk about it without the couch analogy:

Unfortunately no, not here. The metaphor I've heard is continent as couch cushion: the glacier was "sitting" on the upper part of North America, pushing up the edges. Now that weight is gone, the coasts are dropping slightly.

The $78 million is for ten miles of the 457-mile corridor for the sea-level rise estimated for 2050. And the rise will only accelerate after 2050.

But yes, that does seem like a low figure.

The US east coast has post-glacial rebound and Atlantic meridional overturning circulation slowdown to compound their sea-level problems. But most the rise is nothing special compared the rest of the world, which is the worst part of this.

Coordinated, inauthentic behavior?

"...a simple majority in the case of purely internal affairs, but a two-thirds majority in case of more major..."

Sure, companies have to adapt to markets. But inserting code like this, buggy or not, is a cowardly act by Apple. They should be ashamed, and apologize.

This case is important because many elite American colleges have quietly copied Harvard's 15% cap on Asian students.

Is "doing business" in California really defined as living in California? What's your source for that?

Fewer.
