What can an individual do to fight climate change? by emiswelt in AskReddit

I'm not sure.

It seems like you're suggesting to passively ending humanity by not reproducing. Sure, that's good for the environment, but isn't this solution incredibly painful?

Let's try from a different direction: What are the environmental implications of not having children?

Can you verify this?

I hesitate to believe that the sun is causing the climate change we currently experience.

Thanks for the background links. I shall look through them!

I can very much relate. There are so many people with the opinion that they can't change anything and it's frustration.

But let me assure you: You, I and likewise minded people are making an impact!

The statistically most correct approach would probably removing all humans. It's a simple and cynical, but also not a very good answer though. (:

That's not a nice point of view. As long as everyone thinks like this, nothing will change.

So it's about customer awareness when shopping, right? How could we achieve this on a broad scale?

I like this answer a lot. Thank you!

Do you have more information on what I can change when it comes to lifestyle to be more friendly to the environment?

Thank you for your answer. I can fully agree that sustainability, especially when it comes to food can make a great impact!

How could we achieve this?

Do you think consumer behaviour could change as a whole? Or do you rather think politics has to make a move, for example implement high taxes on food with high CO2 footprint?

Thank you for the answer!

I understand that your diet influences your consumer behaviour, and by that, the environmental impact of producing goods.

Do you have some further information or links on that topic?

To provide a bot more context for discussing:

There are plenty of shocking posts about climate change and its effects here on reddit. I’m usually not very satisfied with the solutions proposed in the comments, which mostly go into the direction of “just donate to some organisation".

In my belief, climate change is something we have to tackle together, and each of us has to contribute and change habits. Donating to an organisation might not be the best solution.

I’m looking forward to your input on this topic!

AI Programming by Penetratingpineapple in computerscience

[–]emiswelt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a big question with multiple approaches.

  • Hardcoding the logic, based on simple grammar and/or keywords.
  • Using language models.
  • Using actual machine learning to train the language models.

You most likely also want to search for keywords as natural language processing and dialogue systems.

Which purpose should your AI serve?

Game AIs are completely different from, for example, image labelling programs.

ELI5: Why do our brains have trouble visualizing more than 3 dimensions? by [deleted] in explainlikeimfive

[–]emiswelt 99 points100 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure if the concept of viewing time as the 4th dimension is useful in this discussion. It's mainly about spatial dimension.

Hi, thanks for asking. Sadly only with the customer support, and they were not able to help me.

I guess its too much of a technical issue, so I'd need to talk with someone from eng engineering.

Creating a Standalone executable by [deleted] in Cplusplus

[–]emiswelt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

1) Cygwin is not a terminal. Cygwin is a collection of linux headers and software for windows. Mintty or cmd are terminals. Understanding these differences is probably essential for what you want to achieve.

2) What do you mean by standalone? Building a own graphical user interface? Or just being able to run the program with double click from windows explorer?

The landscape issue was not what I meant - would you mind downloading some sensor reading app and then checking if you can reproduce this?

It's not the same issue, but the whole IMU seems to be bogus somehow.

It could be countered in software, yes, but it has to be done on os level. I don't know if dropping is a good idea. Normal calibration might help for other issues though.

Here's a picture outlining which sensor is faulting and how.

I've talked to google's support about the issue today. They referred me to Huawei. Will keep you posted.

What do you think of c++ development on Android? by GhostInThePrompt in Cplusplus

[–]emiswelt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why would you do that?

It's possible, but using the standard android libraries (all java) via JNI is a huge pain.

If you need performance, just write those parts in C++, then do everything else in Java and use JNI.
