It's just a dream, so I don't know ^^
But 6 and 9 can be confused when you don't know the orientation to read them in
The funny thing, is that it actually never makes sense to "predict humanities demise", as noone will be able to witness your prediction coming true. You won't be able to reap any benefits of your true prediction, so you might as well bet on survival
For the first and second point however, I’ve learned that whatever the others don’t know today, that’ll be my state of lack of knowledge in a few months or years. Anything that isn’t a one off script I generally document/comment because I’ve had some projects when I was young, and couldn’t work in them after a few months of break because I didn’t understand anything.
That’s when I understood, that “others” is just me in a few months.
This is some high quality stuff here - being able to recognise many of them

Oh, I have two good ones:
Nuclear power causes less deaths (per energy unit produced) than wind (source)
You get less radiation when living near a nuclear power plant, than if that nuclear plant hadn’t been there.
To explain the second: A major misconception is, that nuclear power plants are dangerous due to their radiation. No they aren’t. The effect of radiation from the rocks in the ground and the surroundings is on average 50x more than what you get from the nuclear power plant and it’s fuel cells. (source). Our body is very well capable of dealing with the constant background radiation all the time (e.g. DNA repairs). Near a power plant, the massive amounts of isolation and concrete will inhibit any background radiation coming from rocks from that direction to you. This means, that you’ll actually get slightly less radiation, because the nuclear plant is there.
Regarding the dangers of nuclear disasters. To this day, it’s been very hard to find out, if at all any people have even died to Fukushima radiation (ans not other sources such as tsunami/earthquake/etc.) Nuclear radiation causes much more problems by being an emotionally triggering viral meme spreading between people and hindering it’s productive use and by distracting from the ironic fact, that the coal burned in coal power plants spew much more radiation into the atmosphere than nuclear power plants themselves.

Well, it's not any official statement by the Linux Devs as a collective.
It's simply the personal opinion of Linus - who also happens to be the person who created Linux and still manages it.
Exactly!
Not to mention, that this new oxygen was also poisonous to these bacteria themselves as well!
