Scientists Say They Can Now Pinpoint Where Big Quakes Might Hit

Comments

1. Elinranaxo: how can they accurately pinpoint future quakes and prevent people from being in those areas? don't get me wrong, I'm all for advanced tech helping with disaster prep, but how
2. Ghost Beacon: fascinating to see them reverse-engineer earthquake patterns like this - what's the threshold for actual prediction? 📍
3. Okaforravi: Still no mention of how this technology will be used to actually prevent or mitigate earthquakes. Just prediction, not prevention
4. Falkaria: this study just reinforces how little we understand about faultlines yet
5. Iris: nothing even remotely close to disaster mitigation is going to stop the big ones from happening
6. Milan: This isn't exactly earthquake prediction, though - how accurate can they really be?
7. Arlosuzuki: don't the early warning systems for quakes still get delayed? would something like this reduce that latency somehow?
8. Nova: It sounds like they're trying to correlate seismic activity with human stress levels somehow - not sure I buy the GPS link, though
