This whole move towards renewables, electric cars, green energy is great. However I am not sure it can realistically happen without some huge (not incremental) breakthrough in the battery/electronics technology. Let's look on UK o

Youtube is some kind of madman playground. I have created YT channel for my daughter's cello teacher, where I uploaded Dmitri Shostakovich "Prelude" played by them. A few moments later I've received information that this

That's a problem, it seems. Covid is mostly lethal among older population. Those people take a lot of various drugs. And it looks like that particular population was avoided during trials. Various allergies are also widespread these da

I am not sure if I am that enthusiastic. The problem with Lisp is not a number of parenthesis but where they are and what is their role. In c-like languages parenthesis help parser compiler but they also help humans to read the code. In cas

How about Covid-19 Pfizer or Moderna vaccine? Can we discuss that? Or we have to accept that it is great because it is great? Is it allowed to cite Pfizer that in the III tests phase it applied vaccine or placebo to 43 000 people out of whi

That's very true. Europe is in a very difficult position now. RCEP agreement has just happened (it will take 1-2 years to ratify it by all countries), but it is a huge step towards Asia economic dominance. Next, China is sponsoring act
