Does this imply that the people behind the website specifically saved "juicy" user-uploaded images?

Snowbanks are set to get whiter – offsetting climate change's effects 3 years ago

Snow in the Northern Hemisphere is likely to be cleaner by the end of this century — an effect that will partially offset the effects of global warming1.

Global warming has reduced snowfall and accelerated snowmelt in mountainous regions, threatening the supply of fresh water for two billion people worldwide. Snow melts even faster if it is covered with sooty particles of black carbon, which are produced by the burning of wood and fossil fuels.

Dalei Hao at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory in Richland, Washington, and his colleagues used simulations to assess how much soot will land on snow in the next several decades. They project a reduction in black-carbon pollution in snow-covered regions across the Northern Hemisphere between 2015 and the end of the twenty-first century.

Even if global carbon emissions continue to rise for the next half-century, the amount of solar radiation the snow absorbs because of soot and dust pollution will be 62.3% less by 2100 than when the snow was dirtier. The whitening of the snowpack is expected to slow its loss and increase the availability of fresh water, the scientists say.

Commenting on Hacker News 4 years ago

Any slightly political thread on hackernews is a cesspool on reddit or twitter level. Topics about january 6, the abortion ban, anything adjacent to the "cultur war"...

I suspect the only difference is that technical topics like shiny-rust-program or webframework3000 are less controversial

The fall of Reddit: Why it’s quickly declining into chaos 4 years ago

Funny that you say that.

I found the comments on that hacker news thread predictably awful, like all even slightly political discussion on hnews.

People trying to one up each other with edgy comments on why the ruling is actually a good thing and how smart they are.

A display of privilege and of a real lack of empathy

Modern Alternatives to PGP 7 years ago

He describes the movie as an overly dramatic dark fairy tale and says he doesn't recognize himself in the main character. As far as specific criticism goes, he says the way the main character has to write in secrecy and is suppressed by the Stasi is inaccurate. He says his room was bugged in the 60s but the 80s in the DDR were supposedly much more liberal than what the film shows.
