Aging is the breakdown of your biological functions. We can measure it therefore we can fix it. Be it with genetic engineering or with a external treatment.

They profited offshoring now they will charge you to bring it back so they can profit some more. The wheel will continue to spin and nothing will come from it. Just enjoy the ride.

According to this, breakeven can already be achieved. Rather funny how this is a highly advanced research topic and a mistake like that could take place (if real). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muon-catalyzed_fusion#Alt

I think a preventable one. Consider the Air France 447 accident. It came to be due to various conditions. But I remember a lot of headlines about "if only the pilots had not done anything, the plane would have cleared the weather and k

Ceramic permanent magnets generators are used in windmills. The comparison you made with ceramic blocks for internal combustion engines is nonsense and honestly it appears you brought it up solely to reinforce some bias of yours. If you hav

Your "modern" cars have cooling loops for their battery, therefore cyclic thermal fatigue.

There are problems that are game stoppers and there are problems that are unavoidable. Cars work. Yes, if you drive 1 million miles you will have cracks in the engine due to thermal expansion, but who cares? Make a new engine and get over i

Consider the following. There is a computer controlled machine gun aiming at you. Somehow it knows that it should not aim at any distractions you try to create. I would call it somewhat intelligent. Of course, I am more intelligent. Using a

Earth heats up. Water evaporates. Clouds reflect sunlight. Earth cools down. Oceans absorb more CO2. Mother nature saves us. Or does it?

Search for OTEC (Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion). Not necessary to build wall, just a big enough pipe to collect cold water from the depth. Then a special contraption will yield pure water from evaporation. Can be done virtually everywhere
