1 year agoIm not familiar with the lemmy source code but i would imagine it would batch fetch comments all at once with one api call (or maybe a few if the thread is big enough). Fewer api calls is less load on a lemmy server, less chance that any one of the calls them fails, etc. At least, if i wrote lemmy id i would do something like that.
There was a hank green video about this a year back. Video link here, the tldr was that container ships used to use a type of fuel that was both bad for the environment but also really good at cloud seeding. More clouds shielded the oceans surface from the sun, artificially reducing its temperature. But in 2020 regulations made container ships move to a fuel that didnt seed clouds as much, so fewer clouds, higher temperature.
So i guess one potential take away from that, if its right, is that the temperatures are not “suddenly” getting worse, but rather have been artificially depressed and we are only now going to what it should be.
