Much nicer than the current approach of throwing you in the deep end and expecting you to already know everything the author does.

Considering how passionate the author is about BSD, I wouldn't hold my breath.

I am pretty sure he's been working on this book since before LLMs were a thing. He's also not the kind of person who'd just delegate his passion to a machine.

If we could remove everything that's not CO2 (all the extra stuff that comes with diesel oil) the CO2 could be piped to large plastic greenhouses the same kind used in Northern Europe for all-year-round crops. And, if we can't clean the output well enough to grow food, at the bare minimum we can grow stuff for the cellulose for building materials.
