There can be glacier collapses in the Antarctic and each one could raise sea level significantly, and we don't know how long those take. West Antarctica for example would be 3 meters alone.
Someone should provide some summaries, as this is an important subject, I feel the communication is buried in a lot of technicalities.
"Simulator"? Given the ungodly CPU usage this needs, I'd say it's directly responsible for the sea rise.

ah yes, the classical "the CPU usage the higher the sea level" saying...
That’s legitimately funny, but it’s kinda expected for that robust of a sim in browser.
The best simulator, showing it to you for real. What more do you want?

Seems like we flooded the server.
Hacker News never fails to rise to the occasion
Which will get even harder as the Pacific grows.
This project does have the developers (nagix) API key in the code but you could clone it yourself:

Hug of death... was there something interesting to see there? 2023 - are the estimates hopelessly out of date (and not in the direction we'd want)?
It's fun watching the render fidelity go up
For reference: Worst case estimates for 74 years from now (2100) is about 6 feet of rise for the US.
Average case is like 3 feet of rise.

Average might not be a good metric for these.

So 1 to 1.5m
Gives an error toast: "The daily access limit has been reached. Please try again after midnight Pacific Time (PT) tomorrow."
