Global Warming Vs Clojure!
Best in Class
EXCERPT: Preface As a Danish Citizen I feel its mandatory to engage in this debate. Denmark recently hosted a major conference to facilitate solutions to the climate threats of this the 21.th century. The result as you all probably know what unfortunately a huge failure, so tons of CO2 was needlessly emitted by flying in all the foreign officials, security motorcades etc etc. I plan on getting a better result. I’ve learned that the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) have published about 3 Gigabytes of tarballed weather data, going back as far as 1929. My mission is now to organize and parse that data, to see exactly what the effect of our recent boom in CO2 emission is doing to the environment. From the total effect I’ll be able to approximate Clojures contribution to the Global Warming. LINK ======================================================= It seems that maybe there was no warming at all? It is our attitude toward free thought and free expression that will determine our fate. There must be no limit on the range of temperate discussion, no limits on thought. No subject must be taboo. No censor must preside at our assemblies. –William O. Douglas, U.S. Supreme Court Justice, 1952 |

RE: Global Warming Vs Clojure!
From 1929/33 to 2010:
Quote:I’ve worked the official numbers from NOAA and now you’re all able to re-run the computations at home. Its clear from the official data that the globe isn’t wildly heating up, in fact in some places it is now cooling down. I know you think you understand what you thought I said, but I'm not sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant! |

RE: Global Warming Vs Clojure!
It is an interesting statistical approach,but I do not know how good the analysis really is.
But I do know that the planet is not heating up rapidly and that there are regions of cooling going on. But he seems to imply that there is very little warming at all since 1929. It is our attitude toward free thought and free expression that will determine our fate. There must be no limit on the range of temperate discussion, no limits on thought. No subject must be taboo. No censor must preside at our assemblies. –William O. Douglas, U.S. Supreme Court Justice, 1952 |

RE: Global Warming Vs Clojure!
I would like to see the first day of spring for the 1930s,
as compared to the first day of spring at present. "They" keep on trying to imply it is now 11 days earlier than the late 1980s / early 1990s. I wonder why "they" do not compare to the 1930s.... The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary. H. L. Mencken. The hobgoblins have to be imaginary so that "they" can offer their solutions, not THE solutions. |
