If you somehow accumulate for re-processing solely this alloy, then sure. It's where it gets mixed up with other 'waste', that complicates things.

Sadly, I've informed my daughter that she can't have coke until she's 22 :) Also, I'm 'one of those' and avoid sugar-free alternatives. For sure though, I can't say I've much noticed it in the likes o

Yes, that's the point i was making - kids who have lots of sugar don't seem to be affected, as it's just their baseline, whereas kids who don't have a lot of sugar do seem to exhibit it. Curiously, my friend's partn

No, I account for that - also, I do buy her an icelolly or whatever at the end of an excited day and she upticks when I'd not expect her to. I can't relay each and every data point from the last few years but I have noticed.

Yeah, I've had this conversation with a friend who has a kid about the same age as mine. He swears that there's no such thing as a sugar rush, whereas I absolutely see it in my kid and there's nothing you can tell me to make

To guess, I'd suggest it might be mostly due to the types of electric motor already produced and available in an appropriate weight and configuraton. Further it might be that redundancy in electric motors might be more of an issue (?)

If my memory serves, there were at least a couple of blurred/pixellated details in that. What I also noticed is a change in Musk from early Everyday Astronaut interviews, where rather than tackling the mention of competing technologies

Or, if the streets of London are anything to go by - the pavement. I find it immensely telling that the vast majority of these things (ie. the popular flavoured kinds) are banned in the country that produces them.

Very much more than likely just a coincidence borne of a widespread industry dealing with a hazardous product, but it's strange to me that this happens alongside a major fire incident at a Scottish lithium recycling plant and so soon a

Drones... may well make mistakes - I'm not sure that AI Vision is anyway 100% foolproof, but besides - Drone operators are human, and i'm under the impression they most certainly are fallible.

Sure, that was my takeaway too but my disliked half-arsed quip about graphics fidelity would apply to the 16-bit graphics aspect :) I remember reading about MSX back in the old days, when I was transitioning from a Spectrum to an Amiga, but

For me it was Comanche ('92) that spelt out the demise of my beloved Amiga. I had a floppy disk demo that I played on my father's crappy, crappy PC at work and it completely destroyed anything you could achieve on the Amiga.

It's worth appreciating that 'live broadcast' also includes media off the main networks, so if you watch a SpaceX livestream on YouTube (etc), technically you should have a TV License to do so. I do find that infuriating.

Native English-speaker here - I've never seen 'a11y' or whatever that is, and I find it to be opaque and incredibly stupid given context. I mean, if they were taking the piss, I might find it amusing.

I was going for 15nm as a base and have absolutely more than likely got my maths wrong, but if there's one way to get an answer on the internet, it's to post an incorrect one ;) So, thank you.

If I've got this right, according to chatGPT, an early-to-mid-year i7 would be in the ballpark of 800m in length, hahah.

I'm now wondering how large a ~7-22nm detail-sized chip at 12" would be :) I'm guessing relativistic restrictions would hamper its clock speed, but presumably still quicker than 'chips in Minecraft'!

Yeah, coming from back at that time, to consider Silverlight at all is to give it too much credit. Jobs and his unwillingness to support it on iPhone killed Flash, and that's that.

Not a helicopter, nor an expert in them, but modern electrical engines are significantly more efficient than traditional ICE motors. Also, the scalability of existing small-form quadcopters (etc) means it's much easier for companies to

I should've clarified - my memory is that even in the 80s the 'internet' wasn't that fundamentally-critical to typical daily behaviour. Heck, even the WWW took a while to roll into relevance.
