They really assume entangling hobbyists into corporate/academic politics/bureaucracy would improve anything? Because these inevitably follow the money. Be careful of what you wish for. Or how else should I read the conclusion?

Seasonal storage. Large amounts of gas can be stored underground.

Bottleneck just moved from the panels themselves to deployment. That can happen in any system.

No, rather a larger version of robotic vacuum.

Why not start with something less ambitious, like low cost robot platform able to follow people and carry stuff around and avoid obstacles. No arms, I am okay using mine to put stuff on and off it. When I had leg injury and used crutches, c

On the other hand, accepting significant amounts of money causes overhead (accounting, taxation). Plus it reinforces the psychological obligation and it's not fun anymore. Thus many maintainers avoid it.

Curious why the coils can't be thinner? This puck form factor would likely interfere with outside blinds.

> If I report that "I did this, and then this happened". That's close enough to the truth to call it that. It's available in not just Mathematics: Chemistry, Physics for example. No. It's when someone else does &

Today we should be able to unobtrusively follow what happens with body in real time, glucose, insulin, fats, hormones, etc. and learn from that, no? Why research only via questionnaires or cadavers?

There was plentiful supply of cheap labor of other immigrants like Slovaks, who were even below Irish in the pecking order and not inclined to establish own businesses.

On the contrary, distilled water is not conductive enough. You do need some ions in it. Inexpensive chemicals like sodium hydroxide/ bicarbonate also prevent limescale, avoid producing chlorine, etc...but then you end up with salty&#x2

Well, hiding under water is another obvious adaptation...but it does not automatically mean sea mammals evolved gills. They did evolve but in other ways. Some weird things just don't happen.

They likely don't have night vision, so they would need to use instruments. They can only discover stars (perhaps except few brightest ones) after invention of photography.

If you insist going that way there's a perfectly cromulent "File Separator" ASCII command character. While it's still possible file names contain it on Linux, it's easier to detect and sanitize or better, reject any

Then that will become a piece of orbital debris, just on solar orbit. Unless you can accelerate it when it is near sun and thus yeet it away from solar system. Doubt that's cost effective either.

Moist air from coasts exists thanks to warm oceanic currents. These currents might change even in current geography so that even despite average temperature rises, the currents move farther from areas suitable for agriculture. Or, on the ot

> Historical data shows Earth was greener and had larger animal mass when it was warmer. Which historical data? For example the hottest period ever was during time of Pangaea supercontinent, which was largely desert.

It is scientifically proven that every food is grown in some local conditions with local phenomena. Global averages are relevant only how they affect these local conditions. When global average climate changes, local phenomena become more e

France tried hard to not be a client state, ended up the same as Germany. That's self inflicted too?

Death Valley recently got greener thanks to occasional flash floods. So you say it will be america's breadbasket? Not with such extreme weather. And as temperature gets up, weather extremes will too.

To feed billions "more greenery" is not sufficient, you need reliable and predictable weather. Just one or two years of world-widespread crop failures can cause mass famine. Even if on average "it's getting greener"

To last cca 10000 years, when there was exceptionally stable climate that allowed for reliable agriculture. Sure, humans can survive without agriculture but not billions of them.

Maybe it needs some memory retrieval step that can measure the confidence - whether there's anything related to the prompt. No idea how to train a LLM to do that.

I was coming from Pascal but hardest to grok were not pointers but that everything in C is an expression possibly with side effects. Unlike Pascal statements.

It seems to me like an historical accident caused by pervasive brutality of living in Roman empire. Pantheon might have made sense to explain it, but people were primed to expect a savior nevertheless. The story of Jesus was a perfect fit a

Okay but it does not standardize location. To reliably manage local time conversions, including location together with date/time is the only way.
