The TLDR; answer to all your problems is: "Just use a freaking USB cable". I rent tons of cars and my experience with the wired AndroidAuto is: 1. Plug it in. 2. That's it. It just works. No ToS or any other crap. 3. The same

This is just a dirty fix. It adds weird restrictions and masks issues. Refactoring external invocations to use safe argument handling is a better way to fix it. Along with tests that exercise weird names.

Yeah, you are correct. The mirrors are not affected by the wavelength, though they are affected by the non-zero angular size of the Sun. There are some non-linear effects that _are_ dependent on the wavelength, but not important to matter h

Solid-state batteries are facing production hell now, with lots of issues cropping up when tested at large-scale in real devices. So they are not expected in meaningful quantities until the early 2030-s. And the LFP chemistry has now advanc

Sure. Pedestrian deaths are above the 2015 levels in all the large West Coast cities that went full-on with the Zero Vision project. Numbers are for 2015 and 2025. Seattle: 7/18 Portland: 11/20 LA: 130/150 SF is unchanged at

Yeah, that kinda reinforces it. He knew about the acute effects, but not about cumulative damage. I don't think that cumulative toxicity started entering the public mindset until well into the middle of the century.

I don't think he really appreciated the danger of lead. Its acute toxicity was well-known, but not its chronic toxicity. And plenty of stuff is toxic in large quantities but harmless (or even vital!) in small quantities.

You can't focus sunlight at the satellite distances. And this is a fundamental problem, the focal distance varies for each wavelength so your focus point will be smeared. You need monochromatic light for that (a laser). Edit: and also
