Gold is not great for bulk traces, it has worse conductivity (thermal and electric) than copper. It's used for coatings because of its corrosion resistance and its incredible ductility. Silver would be better than copper, but the diffe

Well, good luck to you! Catalyst engineering for methane/syngas is extremely tricky and getting it working reliably is always a challenge. Hope you succeed.

A technology that would reduce the amount of uselessly flared natural gas is going to help in itself. It's not a question of abandoning principles, but starting from something that is easier to do and reducing the risk of not getting _

I think the first priority for you should be getting _something_ built and proving your core technology. But you are making it harder for yourself by adding more variables. Natural gas is abundant in some areas and is wasted. If you can pro

Why biogas specifically? This should work fine with regular fossil methane, and it will de-risk your deployments. There are plenty of places in Texas that uselessly flare the natural gas instead of doing anything with it.

Crytobros gave us ransomware, industrialized pig butchering scams, billion-dollar heists, and arguably the second Trump presidency. I'd say it's pretty impactful.

I suspect some shenanigans from investors. The bankruptcy also was handled in an unusual manner, not through a regular liquidation.

Na-Ion batteries are not practical for home storage right now. They have a much higher voltage range compared to LFP batteries, so regular inverters and chargers will not work reliably. Nothing insurmountable, but the supply chain is just n

Keep in mind, we could have had local Na-Ion battery production in the US. The company producing them needed about $5m of bridge loans, with products already sitting in warehouses awaiting the UL certification. This company got sold for scr

Ammonia production is more-or-less a synonym for "hydrogen production" chemically. The NH3 formation happens at a high temperature and pressure, but it doesn't use a lot of energy. Technically, it's even energetically fa

No. It'll stay in essentially the same orbit. During collision, some of the energy will be lost, so the fragments will necessarily have a lower orbit. The only thing that can accelerate fragments into a substantially higher orbit is th

The problem with that analogy is that compiling Postgres takes a few minutes. Training a model takes hundreds of thousands of dollars (at least) and specialized hardware. Having a standardized training set is valuable, though.

So on one hand you have massive pig butchering operations that use slave labor trafficked across multiple countries to scam people and ruin thousands of lives. And on the other hand you have donations to Graphene that can be done just fine

The problem is that the screen surface and the pen are fairly far apart, so the stroke appears "floating". This makes it harder to do fine drawing. Try to "dot i-s" in a long word and see for yourself. It's just awk

iPad is terrible for hand-writing. It's (relatively) heavy, so you can't hold it and write on it. It's slippery, and the friction between the pen and stylus is bad. The pen itself also produces gigantic strokes.

The percentage of classical fiat used for crime is negligible, when compared with the percentage of blockhain fiat used for crimes. Moreover, classical fiat makes steps to make crime like ransomware or kidnapping impractical. While crypto f

No. The process was handled as usual: a proposal was made, and people voted. Overwhelmingly to ban crypto.

Exactly my point.

What "process"? It's a simple rule: "no cryptocurrency projects".

Just provide a downloadable version. Your server side should be just a glorified templating engine and a DB from consumers' point of view. Charge for the local version, of course.

I was interested for a few seconds, until I saw that it's a SaaS. Sorry, but that's a no-go at this point.
