The West is following suit.
We'll likely see a global population decline.
Warming is one aspect of climate change, but we'll likely see cascading effects in the system.

For example, as global temperatures rise we are seeing that AMOC (Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation), and as a result the Gulf Stream, are "slowing down". [1]
This could result in EU cooling down.
The clathrate gun hypothesis suggests that large releases of methane could cause abrupt climate shifts due to methane’s strong greenhouse effect. [2]

Its likely developing nations and their citizens will increase CO2 usage as they move towards a more western lifestyle.
That means there will be an increasing amount of energy production and usage.
Ideally we generate more with solar and nuclear.
Decreasing energy production and consumption is not a real solution.

Developing nations will continue to increase individual CO2 usage as their economies improve.
People want to live a modern western lifestyle, and that requires more energy.
Realistically the world is going to generate far more energy, not reduce energy usage/production.
Moving to solar and nuclear is the only likely solution that will result in reduced CO2 volume.
Encouraging a small minority of HN users to not have an additional child won't move the needle.
It'll likely just remove a person capable of some level of critical thinking from the population pool.
You can suffix: "site:reddit.com" and get results for that particular site only.
Its a constant arms race, at least until the AC devs bow out.
There is no 100% perfect solution. There are tons of ways to circumvent anti-cheats using a second computer as well.
I'm guessing retiring just means working on your own things with enough runway til you drop dead.
Kind of bleak when it comes to romantic relationships
Inference is on Apples own silicon though.
In general I don't think this would eat too many resources, just throw it on a VPS using systemd.
Using meta queries to fill my system prompt with the entire schema of the db in a condensed format.
It was working quite well!
Would love to hear about your approach.
Svelte is by far my favorite framework of the lot. It’s also the most productive for me.
