#Clima: “A UE ateou o fogo e não pode esperar que outros países sejam os bombeiros”

(WWF quer mais da UE)

Excertos:

"As falhas que a UE tem vindo a cometer, alegam os autores do relatório, prejudicam os esforços de descarbonização e, denunciam ainda, incluem “subsídios aos combustíveis fósseis, licenças gratuitas para poluir para a indústria pesada ao abrigo do regime comunitário de comércio de licenças de emissão, a isenção de impostos para a aviação comercial[...]”."

“O aquecimento a curto prazo (anual) não equivale a uma violação permanente do objectivo do Acordo de Paris de 1,5 graus Celsius, mas esta violação a longo prazo pode ocorrer em breve: segundo o Copérnico [programa europeu de monitorização do clima e atmosfera], se a tendência de aquecimento de 30 anos até Dezembro de 2020 se mantivesse, o aquecimento global atingiria uma média a longo prazo de 1,5 graus Celsius em Janeiro de 2034”, destaca o relatório do WWF. E isso trará consequências dramáticas impossíveis de ignorar."

"Entretanto, na segunda-feira, terminou o prazo oficial para os países entregarem às Nações Unidas os seus planos de redução de emissões de gases com efeito de estufa até 2035. Cerca de 95% dos países não cumpriram a sua obrigação — entre os quais a União Europeia (Portugal incluído, claro)."

1st thought... Run!

Well, I've heard you have plenty of experience with Unit Testing and TDD. Perhaps designing a few tests before refactoring?

I've heard of Snapshot testing, but have never tried it: https://github.com/spatie/phpunit-snapshot-assertions

Also, what kind of refactor are you trying to do?

@andros I suggest to not touch it and work on a different project instead. :-D

No, in all seriousness, that's a tough one. Try to figure out the requirements and write tests to cover them. In my experience, if there is no good documention, tests might also be lacking. It goes without saying that you have to understand the code segments first before you can begin to refactor them. Commit even earlier and more often than usual, this will help you bisecting potentially introduced bugs later on. Basically baby steps.

But it also depends on the amount of refactoring required. Maybe just scrap it entirely and start from scratch. This might not be feasible due to e.g. the overall project size, though.

@andros I'm all for elegant solutions. I prefer when the computer helps me to really achieve my goal and solve it completely, not where I still have to manually filter a list by hand. Anyway. :-)

@eapl.me Yeah, you need some kind of storage for that. But chances are that there's already a cache in place. Ideally, the client remembers etags or last modified timestamps in order to reduce unnecessary network traffic when fetching feeds over HTTP(S).

A newsreader without read flags would be totally useless to me. But I also do not subscribe to fire hose feeds, so maybe that's a different story with these. I don't know.

To me, filtering read messages out and only showing new messages is the obvious solution. No need for notifications in my opinion.

There are different approaches with read flags. Personally, I like to explicitly mark messages read or unread. This way, I can think about something and easily come back later to reply. Of course, marking messages read could also happen automatically. All decent mail clients I've used in my life offered even more advanced features, like delayed automatic marking.

All I can say is that I'm super happy with that for years. It works absolutely great for me. The only downside is that I see heaps of new, despite years old messages when a bug causes a feed to be incorrectly updated (https://twtxt.net/twt/tnsuifa). ;-)

that's a fair point.

Perhaps, since Twitter in 2006 never implemented read flags, every derivative microblogging system never saw that as an expected feature. This is curious because Twitter started with SMS, where on our phones we can mark messages as read or unread.
I think it all comes from the difference between reading an email (directed to you) vs. reading public posts (like a blog or a 'wall,' where you don't mark posts as read). It's not necessary to mark it as 'read', you just jump over it.

Reading microblogging posts in an email program is not common, I think, and I haven't really used it, so I cannot say how it works, and whether it would be better for me or not.
However, I've used Thunderbird as a feed reader, and I understand the advantages when reading blog posts.

About read flags being simple, well... we just had a discussion this morning about how tracking read messages would require a lot of rethinking for clients such as timeline where no state is stored. Even considering some kind of 'notification of unread messages or mentions' is not expected for those minimalist client, so it's an interesting compromise to think about.
