I love to piss them off by telling them the only way for god to objectively exist as an all omnipotent being is for the simulated universe theory to be true.

The USA can take this large losses, they have relative few hives and can easily import bees if needed.

IIRC there are 2 million hives in the USA with 100 Million managed hives world wide. A lot of the 2 million hives in the USA are managed by big commercial beekeepers (1000+ hives) and I doubt a lot of them take the survey. While I've heard about higher winter losses from commercial beekeepers I doubt they are this high.

I work with/for a european commercial beekeeper and we had low winter losses ~3%. While the hobby beekepers had a record high loss according to the national survey ~30%.

Bees

I grew up with and into the internet, most things came naturally and where not that mind blowing. I've been looking forward to ML/AI and its currently blowing my mind that it actually works so well as a programming "assist".

A lot of users are willing to pay for an ad free personalized experience, but this seems not to be enough for reddit.

A fediverse "Reddit" will not spontaneously exist overnight but will be the best long term solution, I'm not sure the current implementations are Product Market Fit enough.
