No bones about it, this is a good meme.

I hadn’t heard of a few of these and they sound really enjoyable. Thanks for sharing!

Density reduces emissions

I reply to your infographic with a scientific paper that shows higher densities lead to higher CO2 emissions: https://www.mdpi.com/2073-4433/12/9/1193#:~:text=Regarding CO2 emissions%2C the,density%2C the higher the emissions.

This study was done in Spain.

Another study, in Nature, also shows that lower density is better for reducing carbon emissions and climate change. https://www.nature.com/articles/s42949-021-00034-w

Sorry, but you and your infographic/sources are not supported by science.

Yes, let’s pack people in a dense area where diseases and tempers can and will run rampant because THAT has never happened before.

Sorry, I refuse to live on top of other people. Housing is not the enemy of nature - housing that is not in tune with nature is. It is completely possible to build homes that blend in with nature without having to resort to ultra-dense, 5-story brick behemoths filled with people who loathe one another.

I see what you are trying to convey, and I agree with you to an extent, but density is not the answer to sustainable housing.

This is great advice, and to the OP, don’t feel bad. You’re really not an IT person of any caliber until you have experienced when I like to call the “Production Incident Experience”, or PIE. IT work is a job with unforseen consequences and hurdles, and we’ve all run into them at one point or another.

This being a learning experience, do what we’ve all done and learn from it. Now you can set up logging, whatif, sandbox instance, whatever you have to do.

You’re on the road to becoming a good programmer - just learn from your mistakes, do your research on best practices, ask intelligent questions, and in no time at all you’ll be writing one of these posts yourself.

I got lemmy.fan just a few months ago. I wanted a short, memorable TLD that stood out a little.

Random Acts of Senseless Violence was a good read.

Blinking 12:00 intensifies

This girl I knew had a fake seizure in front of me at a public museum. She had a crush on me, which I already was aware of, but I liked her as a friend. Even so, the flag was pretty red on that friendship.
