My level of authority: I watch multiple youtubes on Ukraine every night. So.... not an idiot but there are smarter people. But anyway: I have noticed a fundamental shift since the $90 billion was approved by Europe, and while Iran may have

I can tell you live in a city. I live in the boonies and routinely do multiple hundred mile trips, in bad winter weather. Also, the hybrid shown, Toyota's Sienna, maddeningly doesn't come with a plugin. WHY.

Although I hate Tesla, think the greater issue is that since we're probably going to have to move a lot of material sourcing and industrial plant capacity back to the United States in the coming decades... The US is probably going to n

Rooftop solar should be more heavily incentivized. From a disaster situation/civil defense perspective, it provides offgrid durability to communities, and it could be life or death in cold waves or heat waves. For all the utility compa

"What is a better solution" I can think of dozens. But this is the solution that allows the state to close the noose on freedom and democracy, and that's the one that you are defending with false choice argumentation.

I wish there was a law that all hardware vendors had to dump a sufficient amount of documentation if they discontinue a platform such that it can be emulated. The litmus test can be done by AI code generation in a sandbox during the period

Do not believe any stated policies on privacy and data retention. Corporations disregard them at their convenience.

See? It's ALL about convenience. Corporate america has shown it treats customer information with the highest regard for security and privacy.

You're talking to a molten salt reactor nut so I have some enthusiasm in the nuclear market. The problem with nuclear is that all the fancy designs aren't ready to go, all of them have 10 to 20 year permitting and construction cyc

I think if Bush had not won the 2000 election, we would be in a fundamentally different electrification of transportation situation. Of course that's speculation, and crying overspilled milk

Do I see every single building covered in residential solar? Can I install grid independent solar in a typical house for under $5,000 or maybe $2,000? Because I think that's what's on the horizon still. Solar has yet to incorporat

Treating alternative energy and PHEVs/EVs as a core national security concern should have started in the early 2000s. Yes, the PV revolution hadn't happened yet, but the hybrid auto was released in 1998 or so, and a PHEV is a natu

Governments should have been full bore pushing subsidies and cost breaks for phevs, home solar, evs,and hear pumps for the last decade. Covid was the wakeup call that globalization was dying a slow death, and the first trump that world cop

I have a dream that electric motors + battery get so compact that you can make kits that fit engine blocks and large numbers of cars can be custom swapped relatively cheaply.

How's that different than a battery swap that every other person suggests but doesn't seem to really mechanically make sense.

I think we should do is have a second trailer that basically functions as the primary battery pack. The tractor's pack is back up or range extension So when a semi pulls into a truck stop, you swap that caboose cab with a fully charged
