I don't have an opinion on this, but how much of that is due to subsidies for the traditional energy industry? Make no mistake, electric vehicles get a lot of subsidies but I imagine governments around the world want energy independenc

It sounds very obvious, but there are some macroscopic medical phenomena that apply only to mice and small rodents. For example, I recently learnt that you can freeze hamsters and then "thaw" them in a microwave and they'll j

Isn't Bernoulli's principle only applicable when talking about the same flow? I've always found the "above path is longer than the lower path" explanation to be unintuitive because we're not talking about the s

I'm a part of the sane part of the world :) But it's more practical because if you know the Wh of a battery and you know the wattage of a power brick (simply V*I), you can quickly calculate the number of hours it will take to char

What did you mean? Because Proton is pretty much what this news is about so I'm a bit confused.

They need to rename peanut butter too, it's not actually butter :/

That argument makes no sense. If I said that the more unleaded petrol is available, the more likely it is to be adopted by average people, would it remind you of margarine too? Should we go back to leaded petrol? Or coca-cola with cocaine i
