I don't think P(doom) is the thing to worry about. I'm more worried about P(awakening). That is roughly: "What if the cosmos is way weirder than we could have known and machines find out?" I don't think anyone can assign a zero probability to that. Unknown unknowns loom large. If this […]

Scientists detect a sharp acceleration in global warming
Global warming appears to have shifted into a faster gear. After removing the effects of El Niño, volcanic eruptions, and solar cycles, researchers found that the planet has warmed at roughly 0.35°C per decade over the past ten years, compared with just under 0.2°C per decade from 1970 to 2015. The acceleration, which becomes visible around 2013 to 2015, appeared across five major global temperature datasets with more than 98% statistical certainty.
