Should we take action to try and prevent climate change, /sci/?

I would say the US, Latin America, Africa, most of Asia, and Australia all have an incentive to change (pic related).

But Canada, Russia, and northern Europe don't.

He's not wrong. The bits of our environment that we need, like some trees, then yeah sure, let's keep those around.

But something like the dodo, we do just fine without it.

I don't trust that people actually are generally capable of making those distinctions. While certainly there could be in some abstract sense extraneous elements in an ecological system, pretty much every time we attempt to artificially intervene in ecological systems to either extract unnecessary influences or protect what we consider vital, it generally results in ecological system collapse. Our methods of modeling ecological systems are not capable of creating long term stability.
We need significantly more than just some abstract notion of "trees" and attempting to engineer complex systems which we don't understand will undoubtedly result in disaster.

Gee I wonder who to believe, what a tough decision.

>>11339392
All I am saying is that the environment is only useful if it's useful to us.

And this is how the majority of people think too, which is why lots of people don't care about climate change, because they don't see any tangible difference it will make to THEM. If they did see what those changes are going to be, then they'd obviously have an incentive to take action, if they thought the consequences were bad for them.

I'm not saying we should or shouldn't take action on climate change; I'm just saying in the abstract that something is only worth caring about if it is useful to humans, basically.

>>11339420
Temperature in itself is not the only effect of climate change you fucking moron.

Maybe I could have worded it better but you know what I mean you fucking idiot.

so what's your point?

anyhow the true history of it, if you did your reading, is that Pauli was reluctant to publish his neutrino theory, and actually Fermi was the one to put forth the theory nearly a decade later. in that case, Pauli was doing his best to avoid making speculative assertions. so i think your point is basically doubly wrong

State health department isn't releasing any info on PUI's in my state, or are bobbing and weaving the topic to keep thing under control, I want of trying to do some expedient open source intel research to find out how many potentially infected people are coofing up my state. What's the best way to do this? I was thinking about trying to see what the local hospitals are doing, EG: buying disproportionate amounts of influenza supplies despite "everything being fine".

those ratios are for births and does not take into account that the values heavily adjust themselves due to higher child mortality
this is one of the most autistic "I am so smart" posts in this thread
to only go on to be completely wrong on every account (even the actual answer).

Yeah that's fair enough.

The rest of your post is ad hominem garbage though, indicating that you're a moron (that's not ad hominem, that's an insult, which you deserve for being a fucking moron).

The introduction of elder/younger has nothing to do with it. The fact that the two children are distinguishable is what causes FM and MF to be different. The fact that you knew ahead of time that one was a girl the second time is what causes the answer to the second to be different. In the first we distinguish the children by "opened the door" and "did not", while in the second we have information on "eldest" and "youngest" but the results come from "opened the door" and "did not" just as in the first. Because "eldest"-"youngest" and "opened door"-"did not" are completely independent the statistical properties change.

Go on, try tossing a labelled pair of coins several times. For the first part, choose any distinguishing property that is independent of the labelling (this could be "landed first" "landed more on the left", etc), and partition your sample space that way. Then partition your sample space based on the labelling. you will get different statistical distributions.

First question is simple. You have 4 possibilities:

1 G at the door, G elsewhere
2 G at the door, B elsewhere
3 B at the door, G elsewhere
4 B at the door, B elsewhere

If G opens a door, only 1 and 2 are possible and are equally likely, hence 1/2

Depends. Programming is the basic shit but you could also do finance or other quant disciplines which are more about thinking and writing dirty scripts to perform automation than it is about programming per se. Real machine learning engineering is in that regime too but requires a master's degree because employers are retarded.
You could also go into optimization and related discipline (decision science, planning, econometrics).
Additionally, you can go tcs or qcs which are really just math and programming is just a tool. That requires going into academia though.
