It was an American named Eunice Foote that detailed the mechanics of the greenhouse effect, but, give or take, it was also around the same time that many scientists came to the same or similar conclusions about this subject. So yes, we've been warned for over 200 years and have done exactly nothing to solve the problem. Why? $.

More like over 200 years ago. There was a french female scientist that discovered the greenhouse effect before John Tyndall but I forgot her name and I'm at work rn, can't search for it.

This is the most interesting thing I've ever read! It almost confirms that life spontaneously arises from self replicating RNA molecules and coevolves with parasites to create more complex interactions and more complex mutations. Their next step is for the molecules to evolve a metabolic function, which is life. Incredible read!

In this context, it is. Reddit isn't even a tangible product, barely 18 years old. The 3rd party apps made reddit a little valuable, I'll admit, but still there is nothing on reddit that is unavailable elsewhere.

Of course these are just my opinions I never said I was speaking for everyone, that's the point of conversing.

When I think of value, it's something that is needed. If reddit disappeared right now, nothing would change. Everyone's lives would continue on as normal, and what information that is on reddit can be found elsewhere. It's entertaining, yes, but not valuable.

A lot of them are appointed former execs of the corporations they're supposed to regulate, and in America corporations are people so they can donate to PAC's and whatnot all in the light of day to influence policy making. There's no telling what happens when the lights are off. Thus, they are employed by these corporations gracious donations while at the same time placed in a position to make policy in government. Tail meet dog.

You think they're campaigning off of grandma's $5 donation?

You mean logarithmic? It wouldn't look as good at first but maybe over time the line will become at least linear, hopefully.
