Carbon capture, utilization and storage technologies are expected to play a role in cutting CO2 emissions and limiting global warming, but some critics say they are costly and divert attention from more effective strategies.

I completely agree. No carbon capture until we have enough renewables built to cover everything. If there are any emissions that are too hard to replace with electricity or biofuels, then capture could be considered.

It is far cheaper to prevent emissions than to remove emissions.

Expected by whom? I haven't heard anybody who wasn't trying to burn coal or gas say that.

Multiple former chief justices have come out against Prop 137, the ballot measure that would end judicial elections in the state.

Per exemple, la llei ni tan sols esmenta les armes letals autònomes… Estic segur que és degut a que els lobbies i els estats que negocien amb el mercat de les armes estan totalment en contra que es prohibeixin i, per a mi, això desprestigia molt aquesta llei. Un exemple: el sistema Lavender, que decideix quins objectius ha d’atacar l’exèrcit d’Israel. Els mateixos que van desenvolupar aquest software admeten que fa un 10% d’errors, de falsos positius; és a dir, que detecta com a possible objectiu algú que no ho és en absolut; creu que una persona pertany a Hamás quan no hi té res a veure. El 10% de 37.000 (3.700 persones), que es la quantitat d’objectius que el sistema va determinar que tenien una alta probabilitat de ser membres de Hamás, van ser atacats essent completament innocents.
