yes, absolutely. like, there have been letters posted from other bloodthirsty realist hawks writing in the 90s saying pretty much the same thing Mearsheimer is saying: Russia construes eastward expansion of NATO as aggressive, so maybe let's not do it, since it's strategically unnecessary.

now all these leftists are lining up to defend kissinger bros. it's great.

defending? what are you talking about? its evidence from an adverse party and it's being treated as such.

there are a couple owners (Lakers, Bengals, maybe one or two more) whose teams are their only source of income because they’re dynastic family businesses from back when an ex coach could afford to start and own a franchise, and as their only or primary source of income their penny pinching makes a slight amount of sense, but if you’ve acquired a team since 1980 there’s no excuse. also the Busses have never even really been “cheap”

yeah you can easily live off a sports team and still spend for good rosters, but you get people like Tillman fertitta who uses his sports team money to shore up his failing businesses, and will do horrible trades to make sure he never has to pay the luxury tax

I just thought it odd to start with trees instead of some other colonizing plants.

Obligatory not an expert but am at least a biologist.

It's not really trees themselves that are an issue but the policies behind most major tree planting projects.

For some ecosystems having native trees promotes better growth of smaller plants by reducing soil temp, wind speed, increasing humidity in the canopy, being nitrogen fixers, or even just dropping fruit. Plus trees don't compete as much with cultivated crops compared to shrubs, allowing productive agricultural use at the same time.

Lotta tree planting projects focus on big numbers of trees planted without much thought put into the logistics of caring for the trees, the typical fatality rate of these projects is around 80%. There's been a growing trend called "natural regeneration" that doesn't focus on planting new trees but letting already existing seeds germinate and sprout.

This is a good article to read on the topic, mostly where I was pulling info from anyway: https://www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.2000425117

a grid of solar cells makes up a Photo-Voltaic (PV) panel

it's like the difference between a pane of glass, versus the entire window that the panes are set into

A panel is an assembled ready to use collection of cells and supporting equipment. Cells produce voltage, but a varying amount based on sunlight and in the form of 2 dimensional sheets.

Both attributes require some further assembly (capacitors, control circuits, plain old arrangement and wiring) to be useful. Some panels have extra features like facing the sun.
