That's pretty deep. I guess I think that they will work hard for more and thus expect economic growth. Especially with decreasing energy costs. If you want to bet that people will mostly choose to immiserate themselves, go ahead.
There's still ~billions of people that would like to increase their consumption a fair bit.
And then most people reading this will probably be dead when the population actually starts shrinking.
This project is scanning those maps and adding the information that modern mapping software needs to show them alongside other geographic information. Where the old paper maps overlap, they work to cleanly stitch them together rather than showing the edges of the paper.
Later: The project is sort of for people looking for the old maps, so I can see why the introduction doesn't spend a life of time explaining them.
You'd probably also get things like TVs with very basic software at import, with much better software available for people willing to obtain it outside the EU.
Like whatever arbitrary thing they decide it should look like that day.
Thermal efficiency is in the 30s, so roughly 2x the electrical output as waste heat. Looks like waste heat from nuclear is still quite a bit more than from data centers.
Data centers are growing quickly and that's not including the waste heat from generating the energy the consume, just taking a quick look at the relative direct emission.
But anyway, a large debt holder can bind up the borrower by announcing they think the debt they hold is worthless. The impact would depend on how much debt it was, with a large amount being dumped almost certainly increasing the cost of borrowing.
Of course you can just say they didn't investigate it enough or whatever, you aren't trying to make a reasoned argument and thus don't need to exercise reason.
The article also mentions that symptoms sometimes persist after treatment with antibiotics.
The practical limit for bipeds is probably ability to survive a fall to the ground. It's not super common, but enough people die simply from falling from standing.
When corn starch is processed, the produced syrup is nearly 100% glucose. Because fructose tastes sweeter, lots of corn syrup is further processed, converting much of the glucose into fructose, hence the name high fructose corn syrup.
So one administration, but not necessarily one shot.
(an import is when there isn't complete review...)
My battery mower is quiet enough that I don't feel terribly rude mowing at twilight.
