I hereby coin the term "pseudo déjà vu" – when something feels like a déjà vu but its actually for real.
What if the generated art was more something like this?

What I meant was that some of the worlds most popular sites employ "infinite" scrolling, and it kind of makes sense on those sites.
If they have a great user experience? That's highly subjective. I guess they had a lot better user experience than their failed competitors.
I agree with the problem of finding something again in a long, cryptically ordered list of several hundreds or thousands of items. Not sure a paginated facebook feed would solve that issue though
For the sake of argument, there are several very successful websites that use infinite scrolling in one way or another. Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Reddit just to name a few. Is infinite scrolling on these sites disorienting the user? hard to navigate? rendering a "terrible user experience"? One could certainly argue that the data says otherwise.
The article doesn't even suggest that there might be situations where infinite scrolling might befit the site. I'm not a big fan of infinite scroll but black-and-white rants like this often leave out the vital context and nuances in the topic they aim to analyze.
2024100 MW (2018) of coal power would translate to roughly 1,76 Gt of CO2 emissions (ballparking an average of 870g CO2 / kW produced). That's 1,76 billion tonnes of CO2 - a hefty environmental price for electricity.
If the same power was produced in nuclear power plants that figure would be something like 0,02 Gt of CO2 (calculating at 0,012 kg CO2/kW) a 98.6% reduction of emissions.
Sure nuclear is more expensive, but what is a global ecosystem worth?
Food for thought.
