I agree with the sentiment but its a bit misplaced here. The energy industry in the UK is still heavily regulated and the government do intervene a lot. The main thrust of this has been to push renewables and nuclear to combat climate chan

Ancient woodland has a soil ecosystem that is impossible to replicate. So even if native trees are planted it is not the same.

Perhaps you could use fusion of cheaper sensors to provide good enough location information. What is lacking though is the software and regulatory framework to do that. It requires a change in philosophy. In the past you had an ensemble o

These sections would be sequential making the search space very small.

I wish we could just return to the basics for knowledge management. Have bibliographic databases and enforce proper referencing. Have a numbering system to locate things and a standardised classification system. And employ actual people

It is not just about your ISP though. Your IP is getting sent to whatever website you are connecting to. People won't always trust that website.

When you are a child your concept of adultness is heavily based on dignity. Grownup have dignity and kids do not (to varying degree). As people grow up they try and maximise personal dignity. The irony is that letting go of dignity is ne

I remember using it on the first Javascript I ever used around 20 years ago. I naively assumed that the DOM was like state in a more procedural language and this variable trick played into that.

I guess that death along the way is a very strong influence on their evolution. The ones that reproduce are the ones that did make the journey and have adapted to it.

Not sure about migratory birds in particular. But being able to survive without food for long periods is clearly a good trait. It has evolved across plants and animals to a lesser or greater degree. That trait can team up with another.

I think that some traits have an unreasonably large effect on the species. And we attach greater significance to them after the fact which makes it seem like a big jump. For example some fish evolved to have stubby lobed fins. That gave

My guess is that they will want to exploit their archive to train their own commercial model. And to integrate AI into their existing product to modify their images.

But people don't make these decisions about what to eat on the basis of bizzare thought experiments.

It could be memory bound. In which case CPU number could be drivn by something else like redundancy or memory limits. Given the traffic the number of CPUs seems tiny regardless.

Exactly. They want to be the Microsoft teams of media. The individual apps are less important than the ecosystem and network effects.

People consume art for different reasons. It can be like a spiritual experience, or an investment, or something to brighten up your life. It can have a story attached to it or be inspirational. My guess is that different people will have

Agree it's awesome. Although the cruising speed is around 300 knots where a small bizjet would be over 400. That is more comparable to a fast propeller plane.

The Dawn Wall. It is about a climber (Tommey Caldwell) making attempts on a new route up El Capitan. The climbing scenes are spectacular and gruelling. Along with the climbing it mixes in the poignant and inspirational life story of Tomm

Historically there was a risk of pretenders trying to seize the thrown. And it was important to have clear continuity to avoid this. So much of what you see is about securing the new king and the queen is coincidental. Just look at the an

Activisim is a more masculine way of thinking. Stoicism more feminine. As society changes these different modes of thinking get more and more mixed up and seperated from preassigned roles. That could be quite a positive thing. I think w

I think part of the problem is driven by the desire to create a slick UI and wizards. These systems then underperform. I wonder if you could instead expose more of the underlying computer science stuff to the user. Give them an interface

I agree that it will be a trying few weeks. Although I think these kind of situation can give voice to existing pain in peoples lives. And the losses of covid may be expressed as grief for the Queen. It is easier for some people to feel

The kind of investment you see in those areas is not because the technology is amazing value for money (although it is), but because of the extrinsic value to a user. An iPhone or a Tesla is a very different value proposition than a landli

None of those technologies has ever been cheap exactly. It always costs someone a lot of money. But because it is desirable it can be justified. Nuclear power is identical to any other source of power as far as the consumer is concerned

The CfD strike prices actually bring us closer to that. After the "stupid market mechanism" runs its course the operator is left with a fairly predictable budget. Which is exactly what you would want in a state run monopoly. By

Or they are like an insurance provider that doesn't consider the risk of a particular client. That is good for growth but not ideal in the long term.

Hydrogen fits into several different markets really well. And those opportunities taken together may well outweigh the limitations. Being able to exchange one form of energy for another is useful. Having lots of potential customers is be

I work in an infrastructure field with lots of engineering disciplines doing separate design. Designs are typically exchanged in AutoCAD even when a 3d tool are used to make them. Or AutoCAD is used to do design work in 3D. BIM exists but

It could be cheap underground drilling. That gives you affordable ground source heat pumps. It makes it cheaper to run underground cables to renewable energy. It makes it easier to build on piled foundations. And could even be a source
