- jonbarker 9y agoInteresting, is there a link to this?

- jhalstead 9y ago10x more efficient and this version ran on a single machine, per the press conference.
- WilliamDhalgren 9y agobut humans obtain their watts very very inefficiently, so there's prob at least an order of magnitude to give for the same kind of system-level efficiency. Consider a field to feed a human vs a PV installation of the same physical size. And ofc there's all the other ways to obtain electricity...
