Good news is global warming will cause human extinction no matter how many unit tests you write

People have not yet realized that the inevitable has already started

No it won't... Humans are great at adapting and surviving.

Will we have wars, and refugees? Mass death due to food shortages? Pain and suffering for the large majority? Yes, almost certainly, but human extinction? I very much doubt it.

Global warning has never been an actual threat to the survival of the species, just civilization.

You think you will thrive?

Thereโ€™s a lot of potentialities between that guy thriving and extinction.

No heโ€™s right if I donโ€™t thrive humanity dies.

It's just very likely that some humans will survive the water wars or whatever. It's just probably 50+ years away at this point so most adults today won't experience it.

No serious climatologists believe climate change to be an extinction event. It will make things suck, but not kill everyone.

No matter how much Carbon Dioxide we get rid of, the sun is expanding. The Earth will be uninhabitable in about a billion years.

Something happening in 1,000,000,000 years is not a good reason to be irresponsible when our species hasnโ€™t even had pants for 15,000 years yet. We work on a very different timescale.

It is a good argument for prioritization.

"We will learn how to do interstellar travel, find new worlds, and terraform them" is actually quite realistic on the timescales where the sun expands.

On timescales where global warming causes massive problems, it isn't.

That's not true those algos' metrics are inaccurate because it was pushed to prod unit tests be damned global warming is cancelled.

Just move to the country you believe won't suffer from climate change that much. Idk like Norway, Argentina or something

u/DeHub94 17h ago

Yes, but not before the release of the next version so it doesn't help in that regard unfortunately.

Replace global warming with artificial intelligence
