Alternatively, just switch to electric bikes maybe? So that, even if they want to try and be noisy, they cannot really? (except with loud music maybe, but that's completely different, wayyyy less stressful for people around, and it

Ok the kind of narrative you are pushing should definitely be banned along with the noisy machines themselves. As some have said in the comments, it has been debunked numerous times in studies. With the same reasoning as yours, I'll ha

I am happy that this kind of tracking project exists. The current tariffs policy of Trump's regime could even be a market manipulation for their personal enrichnent: send the stock markets crashing with a very dumb financial decision,

Yes, and also there is a limit to what we accelerate within Earth's atmosphere, as it tends to burn up from friction. So yes, the simpler machines on Earth are mainly useful at first as a bootstrap, and after that it would rather be fr

I agree on rockets. I'm more hopeful about centripetal launchers (can run on electricity). The first prototypes seem promising.

Yeah. water. I agree with your points, which I could summarize as "my 1) is very difficult". May it be more accessible with mechanical systems instead of humans working outside of Earth? Anyway, I hope you understand and agree wit

There is a right order in which to do these things: 1) enable space harvesting of energy and minerals, 2) unleash growth. Doing 2) first as we are is just planetary-scale suicide. We should even first concentrate on 0) figure out how to pre

Nice, in this case the solution is really easy, just a switch that the grid operator can turn off to cut the solar panels off the grid when there is not enough demand.

Just make roof solar panels with tiltable shades that limit the incoming sunlight for this kind of situations. This is when there is no battery storage involved. If the solar-roofed house can involve home batteries, problem solved.

Oops, you're right... In this case the environmental significance of producing ammonia is much less impressive...

I'm surmising that it could be a useful first step towards converting the atmospheric CO2 into something easier to store long-term. So the ammonia doesn't need to be useful in itself, but only to be able to be converted on-site to

The title is misleading. The text that the founder has shared is the blueprint written at the time of the creation of the startup, and even though obviously the potential for an IPO is evoked, even just in theory, it is clearly not a priori

Fwiw it's useful in split mode to view and edit simultaneously different parts of the same text. Not only in split mode, as you can also just switch between two buffers (or more) focused on different parts of the text.

It's based on Mediatek CPU cores, so I am really pessimistic about their open source support... I'm bracing for a whole new era of unsufferable binary blobs for Linux users, and my condolences if you have a non-ultramainstream dis

No, if you don't come with a database solution, any paper or physical only solution is 100% counterfeitable, with just enough means poured into it. Mafias all around the world will buy expensively any valid or even used identity docume

No, because the fake passeport detection is done by checking the database anyway. Honestly I don't see any other way. Else it becomes a paradise for forgery.

Yes I'm absolutely sure they made a mistake by replacing it with lead again. Tradition is not always the right answer. Or will you sweeten your wine with lead salts like in the 19th century, just because tradition?
