Ran by this dude "Russ George", they dumped 120 tons of iron dust off the coast of Canada into the Pacific, created a massive algal bloom, and subsequently had the 2nd biggest salmon harvest on record (219M): https://www.adfg.alaska.gov/index.cfm?adfg=pressreleases.pr1... despite a forecast of 54M https://www.adfg.alaska.gov/static/fishing/PDFs/commercial/s....

He got fired. More here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russ_George

Thank you for the feedback, I'll take it into account. Much appreciated!

Pretty certain from this that it's a US asset: https://www.wpafb.af.mil/News/Article-Display/Article/111460...

Thanks for your link! The text seems to indicate the equipment is Qatar-owned: “The foreign military sale agreement, signed Dec. 7, 2016, requested AFLCMC provide the radar itself and associated mission support facilities at a remote location in Qatar.”

For context, in the case of foreign military sales, the US government usually buys the equipment from its suppliers, then resells it to the foreign government.

Mine seems to be a bit more focused and comprehensive on the financial expenditures by the US government, and open source. Also iran-cost-ticker.com seems to be "on hold" when i visit it.

That is certainly a difference between the two sites. :) (In my defense, I hadn't visited since yesterday.)

I made a site a couple of days ago to track the cost of the iran war. It's open source, feel free to submit a PR or open an issue: https://github.com/koverda/iranwarcost.com

neat! I made (vibecoded) and deployed something very similar yesterday https://iranwarcost.com

spam?

what do you mean?

Heat pumps can provide an “efficiency” of some 300-400%+. The “trick” is that they use electricity to move heat instead of creating heat, which is why heat pumps stop working well under a certain temperature.

They kinda work like a reverse refrigerator. A fridge takes heat out from the inside and moves it to the outside. A heat pump does the opposite.

You’ve completely failed to answer their actual question, it was the claim of less than 100% efficient heating they were asking about…

No. He was replying to this post:

> Actual heating systems can be better than 100% efficient, while crypto mining or cinebench or whatever is <100%.

The intricacies of why a crypto minor is less than 100% efficient when working as a heater are easily deduced, unless you’re precisely the sort of midwit that likes to leave replies such as the one you left.

Heat pumps which use energy to move heat around are more efficient than using energy to generate heat directly.

cart rescue campaigns technically qualify as "transactional" campaigns, rather than promotional campaigns. that's why that happens

there's also no mention of this at all on reddit.
