They spend a lot to decommission the ships and make them safe. It’s just cheaper to buy an old ship and clean it up than to buy a similar amount of other artificial reef materials.
Also, being ships in shallow water, it drives scuba diving tourists as well as creating new locations for recreational fishing.
They’re pretty big boons for the local towns.
They’re usually sank in areas that are otherwise uninhabited by corals due to the depth of the water. The wrecks provide surfaces in the light zone which allows corals to grow.
It’s entirely new habitat and it provides more breeding sites in the area. Even if it takes wildlife from other areas, the decrease in population in those results in higher breeding rates in those locations due to decreased competition for food and breeding sites. More breeding sites = more breeding and a higher overall population of wildlife over time.
Ecology aside, these sites draw a lot of tourism. They’re “shipwrecks” that are in shallow water, often shallow enough that you can experience them while scuba diving, without needing decompression stops. This means that scuba divers can experience wreck diving without the extra complexity of decompression.
There are many of these artificial reefs around Florida and they’re very popular dive sites in areas that otherwise would have no similar attractions.

New people don’t realize that Linux is really a soap opera with a small software project attached.
Let’s say such a change happens and at that time there’s a bit of time pressure and the capacity on the rust maintainers is thing for whatever reasons. Will they still happily swallow that change or will they start to discuss if it’s really necessary to do that change? And suddenly, the C-maintainer has a political discussion on top of the technical issue they wanted to solve.
This situation could occur even if the code using the API was written in C.
If an API change breaks other downstream kernel code, and that code can’t be fixed in time then they have a conversation about pushing the changes to the next build.
In the end, Linus has already chosen to accept the extra development overhead in using Rust. I think this situation was more about a maintainer, who happens to disagree with the Rust inclusion, using their position to create unnecessary friction for other maintainers.
Where’s the pre-order link?
No, you can’t find any copyrighted text inside the model’s weights.
By allowing our politicians a seat at the table you’re opening yourself up to more harm.
Isolate us, make the voting public feel the consequences of their actions. Respond to tariffs with tariffs on red states. Sanction administration official of the inevitable human rights abuses that are coming. Call out the lies of our Government openly and with evidence.
This isn’t going to change if there are never any consequences for the people who’re doing this as well as their supporters. Revoke the visas of our oligarchs, limit their travel, stop doing business with their companies. Create incentives for educated Americans to immigrate to healthier democracies and ban our social media companies before they finish poisoning your country as well.
There’s an equally rabid and irrational type of person who identifies as being left of center and they, like their mirror image, would rather burn the whole world down than to compromise.
We have to learn to recognize these toxic people for what they are, an impediment. Just because they’re using left-wing memes instead of right-wing memes doesn’t mean that they’re our ally.
Populist movements require everyone, this necessarily means that we have to reach the people who’re not the swastika flying white supremacists and the first step is to recognize that most voters are not the extremists and labeling everyone that voted for Trump as a ‘Nazi’ is helping drive division and plays into the hands of the elites that seek to divide us.

Russia should use its special services within the borders of the United States and Canada to fuel instability and separatism against neoliberal globalist Western hegemony, such as, for instance, provoke “Afro-American racists” to create severe backlash against the rotten political state of affairs in the current present-day system of the United States and Canada. Russia should “introduce geopolitical disorder into internal American activity, encouraging all kinds of separatism and ethnic, social, and racial conflicts, actively supporting all dissident movements – extremist, racist, and sectarian groups, thus destabilizing internal political processes in the U.S. It would also make sense simultaneously to support isolationist tendencies in American politics”.

There’s been essentially no reporting on him, so where are you getting this “fascist” accusation from?
“Fortunately, the charging one has been solved now that we’ve all standardized on mini-USB. Or is it micro-USB? Shit.”
The walls get hot, you absorb the heat from the walls with a fluid. You use the fluid to heat water, you use the steam to drive a turbine, you use the turbine to turn a permanent magnet inside of a coil of wire. In addition, you can capture neutrons using a liquid metal (lithium) which heats the lithium, which heats the walls, which heats the water, which makes steam, which drives a turbine, which generates electricity.
If you poured water onto them they wouldn’t explode. 100 million degrees Celsius doesn’t mean much when the mass is so low compared to the mass of the water.
They just drinking some of the residual koolaid that team Trump was pouring into social media to convince left leaning voters, who were never going to vote for him, to throw their votes away.
It’s the same tactic they used in 2016 to target black people. They simply put out a lot of fake posts from fake “black people” creating the illusion of a movement of people who refused to vote for Hillary.
The Great Hack is a documentary that covers the Cambridge Analytica scandal and shows them talking about using this exact same tactic in other elections. The former employee said it was like injecting poison into the veins of social media.
The person you’re responding to probably doesn’t even realize that they’re still regurgitating the same nonsense because they think they’re living in a world full of other people who agree with them. But that world is artificial and was created to manipulate them.
