    The relative number here might be more useful as long as it’s understood that Google already has significant emissions. It’s also sufficient to convey that they’re headed in the wrong direction relative to their goal of net zero. A number like 14.3 million tCO₂e isn’t as clear IMO.











  • As others have mentioned, a trusted 3rd party signs the correct key so your browser can check the key itself.

    However, it should also be noted that your browser must have a list of trusted 3rd parties and their certificates used for signing in order to perform this check. It’s entirely possible to modify this list yourself. Some examples include:

    • executing your own MITM style “*attack” in order to intercept and analyze local https traffic
    • corporate network inspection and monitoring, where a gateway does the above for all devices on the network which have a CA cert pre-installed through some policy

    So while it’s possible for trusted 3rd parties to issue valid certificates to bad actors, it’s also possible to add anyone (you, your employer, or some bad actors) to the trusted parties list.



  • Step 2 has never been very clear to me and this diagram doesn’t seem to explain it either.

    • Do you touch the tip of the solder to the iron, the pin, or the pad?

    • Do you push the tip of the solder down into the pad, draw it up along the pin, or pull it away as it melts?

    • Why does the solder sometimes flow onto the iron instead of staying on the pad?



  • That may be, but I’m not sure that’s a problem for a communication platform. I remember one time when they moved the share screen button around and some less tech savvy users thought the feature was removed!

    Teams has something like chat threads too. E.g. you can reply to a message in a channel and it groups all replies, and you can also focus that thread if you want. But I agree it isn’t hidden “off the main topic” quite like slack threads.
