This seems solvable. There are differences in pitch between a nearby whisper and a distant shout.

Neat theory, but I dont think I buy in. When we have tools and packs to keep us safe from predators, and any old human can run down a gazelle by just jogging after them for an hour til they collapse from heat exhaustion, where is the evolutionary pressure to be a super-sprinter?

It is the industry standard in NZ. Often times the price isn't high enough to justify transport costs and they are simply shot instead.

I think your "veal weight" is off by an order of magnitude. At four days old, when they are sent to the slaughterhouse, they weigh less than 40kg each, which equates to a ballpark of 10kg "veal" per calf.

I personally think that it is incredibly irresponsible to give musk any control over the deployment of critical infrastructure after his stunts in Ukraine. What guarantees do we have that he is not backdooring these satellites while they are in his posession so that he can shutdown Galileo on a whim in the same way he did with starlink?

It feels like we should have solved this issue a decade ago with bittorrent.

A website is just a frontend for a fileserver, so why are we not distributing these files across the globe, where we all volunteer a bit of storage and bandwidth to services we want to use.

Websites really need be nothing more than indexes and trackers which serve up a list of peers who are hosting the files we want.
