From the interview: "For a patch to get accepted, it needs to be maintainable as well as useful [...] Which means that we put a lot of emphasis on quality. So, with any code we get sent, we need to make sure that we can still maintain

So, basically you replace your phone every two years. That's the rhythm that Apple and cell providers generally aim for (time for new housing design and length of contract). What other expensive item are you replacing as frequently?

Because we need to be carbon neutral soon and so far we have no solution, even theoretical, apart from synthetic fuels. So, we better start ASAP to find a solution. The focus you are suggesting is in play, afaik.

Neither, will you need to rent an expensive gaming rig by the hour, though.

Supply and demand. People want to work on games so they put up with it. You can see the same effect in the sports equipment industry, aerospace, health care and academia to just name a few. In contrast tobacco, arms or insurances pay and tr

Interesting. Are these complete proteins? As in, do they contain all essential and non-essential amino acids?

Most of the EU budget is subsidies. A substantial amount goes to new EU members.

To add to this, when too much energy is fed into the grid, the net frequency increases slightly. Thus, the control variable is net frequency. There is lots of research on this problem. When the net frequency increases so does the rotating s

What about scouting? You could have a rule, that you are informed about the pieces in the vicinity. Perhaps even have different view distance for different pieces. Or only reveal the existence but not the type of a piece for longer distance

You don’t have to believe in conspiracies. It‘s likely just lobbying and corruption.

The energy required to extract the oil from the ground (especially in case of fracking and oil sands) and the refining into gasoline is much larger than what is needed for transporting the gasoline to the pump.

Its an interesting point that might be relevant for heavy BEV likes semi trucks, busses etc., not for personal cars though.

It took me a while to get, that Goodenough is the name of the inventor (John Goodenough) and not a tacky brand name.

I assume this is the CO2 content of one gallon but not the CO2 footprint of producing the fuel and getting it into the tank.

What would these companies invest into if Tesla hadn’t proven long range BEVs to be viable? What could the public and policy makers point to when the old car companies keep stating that there are no current alternatives, that we have to wai

by FrojoS 7y ago
Tesla has advanced the advent of BEV by something like 10y. There are multiple statements by old car CEOs who admit that Tesla forced their hand to finally take electric cars seriously. So no, Tesla is not unimportant. At all.
