When speaking about global energy mixes, or even nationwide energy mixes, regulations are just remixing the cost into separate buckets. Subsidizing oil for your citizens costs your country. Trump did manage to make it more expensive for mos

The most popular cultivars are from China, but there are also native American butterfly bush (Buddleja). I've heard the native ones support monarch's throughout their lives, but now I'm seeing that's not so - which would

Storage facilities allow for market supply control. And while it's true many member exceed targets, it's like speeding on US highways: everyone does it, but anyone driving 20 mph faster than the pack is nobody's friend. Karma

Oh, AMSL was designing components of the EUV system by 2005. So, more likely 25 years!

"and vacuum systems" is the key here. The refrigeration is a well-solved issue. There's impeller-type vacuum engines, which is what most people think about. Then there's multiple-stage fans, where the purpose is to overc

(The video describes the actual lithographic laser.) And it's a source of serious hazardous waste products. It's a tin-ion laser, operating in an ultra-pure vacuum, on an unbelievably high-energy band (even laser "lines"

Computer was a human job. They did arithmetic, or less frequently, higher-order computations. Basically, human-powered accounting. As a teen I did some accounting for my family on an electro-magnetic adding machine. A big boon over hand add

I worked on part of it in 2006-8. I noticed that our office waste wasn't being shredded, and asked my boss why not... "With all the problems we have getting this to work? We ought to ship our drawings to our competitors to slow th

Big gambles have big risks. It's the gambler's folly, after a big win (ASML's EUV) to say, gee, we should have bought more lottery tickets! Next time, it all goes on red! What is no longer mentioned is that ASML made another

I find con men are the first to protest their innocence, and even suggest well-curated "proofs" of the same. It's not evidence either way, in the arms-race of high-tech doping.

Horses don't eat during races (and aren't evolutionarily disposed to marathons, anyway). No edge there; it takes quite a while for their symbiotic gut flora to downconvert fodder to glucose.

It's actually a modern innovation, AFAIK. Common people were stripped and wrapped in linens (or equivalent). Obviously, mummy wrapping would be the extreme example of it, but wills often designated who would inherit "my best tunic

The religiously faithful would disagree somewhat, but not I. I wonder, however, why such Christians (for example) think a prayer for the soul of the deceased would alter God's plan in any way. "Gee," he says to Michael, who h

I'm pretty sure I'm allergic to methylene-decaffeinated coffee. I discovered in the early 1990s that I'd get sneezy almost every time I drink decaf office coffee, but my home decaf didn't do that to me. Hasn't happe

As an aside, there's a Facebook group for Patrick O'Brien fans. Content consists mostly of questions about tiny details in one book, which are rather nicely examined in a cooperative, investigative spirit by other fans. It's

Not so strange. I bought a puppet animal that seemed generic enough - the only animal type available at the magic store, and my girlfriend's boys declared "It's a coati!" She thought that they must have seen a fake anima
