Sure. I guess I was pointing out in a roundabout way that one of the assumptions must be wrong. I don't think 2,300/hr feels realistic. 200 seems much more reasonable (or less). I'd be inclined to believe 1 nail per minute

Apples to oranges, but assuming the equivalent of (say) $10/hour, at 2300 nails / hr * 8 hrs, that would be $80 for 18,400 nails, or $0.004/nail. Quick google suggests iron was 1/300 the value of silver in the Roman empi

The interesting idea to me was the idea of notating captions with stressing / emphasis. It would be really neat to have automatic transcription that could annotate the result accordingly.

Question -- why not go with liquid oxygen? Does that push the danger-meter too high? On the plus side, you're not dealing with 3000 psi compressed gas. I'm assuming the costs involved in making engines capable of withstanding cryo

I assume you mean 2kW not 2kWh. And you can; look up "Non-export addition". These are solar panels that are set to zero-export; they will either charge a battery or the current house loads, but never backfeed into the grid.

I think it has its place. For 'background filler' I think it makes a lot of sense; stuff which you don't need to care about, but whose absence can make something feel less real. To me, this takes the place / augments pr

I'm not so optimistic. Yes, you can never "plug the analog hole" completely, but you can definitely lock stuff down to the point it's impractical for 95% of people. For instance, imagine some sort of audio / video f

Supposedly they compensated for that. They have a "Limitations" section in which they discuss some potential pitfalls, including how most alzheimers deaths start after age 65. I will say, it doesn't inspire confidence when Fi

This changes nothing, other than making companies replace all instances of "buy" with "add to account". What I'm more interested in are laws against "changing the experience". You force a mandatory update

In theory such a thing is possible. In fact, I've even sketched out what I'd need to do to my one to convert it. I may still do it as a science project -- it's an old unit (~2007), so if I destroy it it's not the end of
