Sigh. I too would like to know an employer that can accomodate unpredictable performance or a partner willing to do emotional labor.

They reuse inverters too. So the packs are separated, no need to balance.

You are forgetting what people did before psych meds were available. Almost everyone treated themselves with alcohol and tobacco. Coffee is up there, too. There is cognitive adaptation, not denying it, but only up to a point.

Except that's not how this works. When a cron job fails, does not depend on how often it is ran.

When it's automated we're back at square one: after few years it breaks and nobody will have any idea where the acme scripts are or how to debug them.

The solar panel production is now hundreds of gigawatts of nominal capacity added every year. Batteries are not far behind, still ramping up aggressively. Good luck trying to use nuclear to catch up.

Clean water does disappear. Not from universe bit from places you need it most. That there's plenty of it in the air or sea or Saturn rings, is little consolation.

They gainsay hearing aids but there's been good progress. However sometimes it's frustrating when they "intelligently" select the wrong sound. I don't believe AI can decide better, it can be even more spurious. Unle

That has issues with getting in and out. It's possible to solve everyhing, like have a zero-gravity "hub" in the middle, reachable from the habs by lift climbing the ropes. Or have pulleys reconfiguring whole habs as needed.

Noone says it's easy. But at least have inside a small rotating cylinders for 1-2 persons to sleep and exercise in. Should be doable with active stabilization so that it isn't sloshing and not endangering anything if it seizes.

Plenty of embedded stuff deployed today will be there in 15 years, even with proactive push. Which is not yet done, only planned in few years mind you. Buying devkits for most popular architectures could prove good investment, if you are se

The soil gets depleted when biomass is consistently taken away. It might be possible to avoid it but that's cost center.

Because nobody (at least in the US and China) takes heavy metals in groundwater as a serious problem. If they did, that would cost much more than Fukushima. It eventually will. https://insideclimatenews.org/news/0403201

That is purely psychological perception. Noone seriously calculated that nuclear waste would be orders of magnitude worse than coal per TWh. Neither safety, expense to manage nor other externalities.
