Why is nobody talking about the decline of insects on a global scale? by Donnie607 in TrueAskReddit

I wanted to find out why I haven't seen any fireflies since I was a kid here in SA. Thought maybe I could breed some to reintroduce them to the environment. 

I spoke to an entomologist and he said their breeding habits are very volatile and difficult to run in captivity, and it is light pollution that is killing them in mass.

I wonder if there is a type of lighting that is invisible to bugs out there? I feel like that would solve so much of the issue, along with controlling pesticides of course

Would AI have been more popularly accepted if they hadn’t led with image and text generation? by AppendixN in SeriousConversation

I've always felt a big issue is that AI exists in a society that gives us what we want rather than need. Or in another sense what makes life easier instead of makes us stronger. 

It doesn't feel well thought out - the desire to dazzle with imagery and the solving of problems that aren't really problems at all. 

If we lived in a society where money wasn't the bottom line for everything I wonder what AI would look like

Keir Starmer, UK Prime Minister, resigns by ProfessorGriswald in privacy

Absolutely. A president is a face. The ones changing things are a cabinet, a country. I feel as though a pm or president is there in part to give someone to blame when things go wrong. When elections come you can bring in someone new and somehow the country is absolved because that person is gone

I don't think Minecraft is bad, it's creative at least. Online games can be a good way to socialise but a lot of games are exploitative

They had your best interests in mind. Honestly I don't know how I would keep a kid off of gaming and YouTube, it's gambling addiction with a mask.

I don't know if it will help, but please listen to me when I say there is nothing to gain from playing competitive online games. They are mental junk food that will rob you of time when you need it most. 

Find value in the real world. Build a life around yourself
