I don't think that's true, both volumetric and mass densities for lithium ion batteries are very low ( https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/c/c6/Energy_d... ).

You've contradicted yourself by saying that batteries are both less and more dense than jet fuel...

I would also add safety and the fact that 70% of our planet is covered in water/not easy to retrieve batteries from.

You can find a list on metacritic ( http://www.metacritic.com/browse/games/score/metascore/all/w... ), but it also includes non-exclusives. Personally I loved Super Mario 3D World and Mario Kart 8.

WiiU has a lot of great games you can play right now and it will take Switch few year before it reaches a similar level in it's life cycle. Also, it's the best console to play Wii games right now (and possibly ever) and there'

France did not honor it's obligations and if it wasn't in position to attack Germany then France shouldn't have made those guarantees (Maurice Gamelin's "bold relief offensive"). Thinking that Germany wouldn&#x

They declared war and did nothing (hence names like Sitzkrieg or Phoney War). Since Polish defense strategy was based on assumption that UK and France will fulfill their obligations it was a much easier win for Germany than it could've

I really enjoyed reading "The Disaster Artist" by Greg Sestero and Tom Bissell. It's about making of the movie "The Room" and it's writer/director/producer/leading actor Tommy Wiseau. It's o

It's not always the best way to write software. If you're writing a program that's supposed to work in real(ish) time then it's good to take performance into consideration early on, otherwise you'll end up rearchite

I have a 2016 XPS 15 and it's nowhere near a mbp when it comes to build quality. Keyboard and touchpad are much worse than on my 2010 mbp 13, palm rests are made of grease-absorbing plastic, fans can get VERY loud and it's impossi

A movie called Ostatnia Rodzina (Last Family) about Beksiński family was recently released in Poland ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XfFt9RfO9Bc ), definitely one of the best movies I've seen this year. Unfortunately I

I don't think it's a valid comparison. Lottery results are unpredictable, stock market to some degree is.

Why do you consider it a "learning experience" and what makes a software library a final product? Every software project has to start somewhere and be published at some point.

Maybe he didn't like other libraries? There are many reasons why you would want to write a new library. Fun is one of them.

1345 days ago I posted about a C JSON library I wrote [0]. Since then I've added lots of features (serialization), fixed even more bugs (often found by someone else) and learned to say no to pull requests. It became surprisingly popula

You could build hyperloop stations in city centers. That's why travelling by train is (often) so convenient. No need for 1h trip to/from the airport.

Simple alternative: storing passwords in gpg encrypted files and using emacs. Emacs has EasyPG so when you create a file with .gpg extension and try to save it prompts you for a password to encrypt this file with. Similarly if you open a .g
