This was posted when it came out here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45802029. It generated a lot of comments -- more heat than light, possibly -- and I wonder if instead of just taking the title as a jumping-off point, folks could engage with the meat of the article itself.

(I wrote the article. I'm a longtime HN user. I find that threads here lately have gotten very jumpy-offy -- commenters use a specific article about e.g. icebergs melting to have a conversation about climate change and climate change denial, instead of to talk about the merits of the particular article -- and I was hoping to nudge folks to read the full piece, then comment on specific parts of it. I'm not sure that'll work but figured it's worth a try!)
