It clear he's a great 'salesman' in terms of raising capital and spruiking up share prices, and he's turned that toward some interesting concepts. What is also interesting is part of the act is pretending he is the geniu

In terms of ease and industrial base required it seems to me much will come down to how much of the renewable generation is hydro (and how much is possible given an area's hydrology) since that is so much 'easier' than modern

In general the use of a shitload of breadcrumb or other filler will break a crabcake. Should just be a very light mayo based binder just to hold it together, and the lump of the crab meat should still be intact. I worked as a teen at one of

in general growth is a coordinated process and pulling on one single lever hard is not going to be good. But there are times when encouraging growth is desirable, like using plant growth hormone (synthetic auxin) to encourage a cutting to

I think we've already cracked the code on intra-plant communication for growth which is conducted by hormones like Indole-3-acetic acid and the other auxins. I guess it isn't impossible that manipulation of action potentials could

I can agree with the parent comment that the typography on that page is atypical and not in a good way. Too large to make it easily readable on mobile, not enough margin. Perhaps that's forgivable since it was written 17 years ago befo
