If it's running Linux and you can add HAproxy or Nginx directly to it you can sidestep that issue as well.

The idea isn't to use the Linux kernel at all for the applications data path. You can have a Linux distro start your application and then once it's running you don't necessarily need to make any syscalls at all. You can pass

That footage was not what was used by the computer to do any vision augmentation. It was solely a dash camera separate from the self driving system. Uber's sensor platform was more than adequate.

One thing to consider is that plenty of packaged foods seal their bags with pure nitrogen to keep the humidity under control and eliminate oxygen ageing the food in storage. It's the same reason why a bag of chips can have some quite l

No one is digging through trash looking for tiny batteries embedded in disposable electronics. The dump truck gets unloaded straight on top of a landfill and bulldozers spread it around in the majority of the US.

I think the suggestion was to fertilize the oceans with large quantities of iron to create massive microorganism blooms to sequester CO2, not to somehow "block the clathrate gun" as it were.

Not directly but the reason why you pay such a high water usage rate is because it's indirectly metering sewage usage. That's why you can arrange for bulk water delivery via fire hydrants for a cheaper usage rate for e.g. filling

Anyone know of a source of bulk (e.g. 20kg) uranium ore like United Nuclear used to sell? I always wanted to refine some when I was a teenager but by the time I actually had a way to spend money online they were sold out for good.

You'd need to enrich it or use a breeder reactor if you wanted to do that all on Mars. Nuclear is so energy dense you'd be better off just including shipments of reactor fuel every 780 days on regular resupply missions than trying

No he's right, Jet-A has plenty of energy but it's not very volatile so unless you've got a very large hot fire it will not sustain itself. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7nL10C7FSbE It takes a spray nozzle
