Fair, but none of that has anything to do with the most efficient and desirable use of a particular plot of land for 99.9% of a town/state/country.

Why would it be? Price is simply the best information we have about the interaction millions of various desires, distilled into one number.

re: Footprints being a solved problem, SnapEDA/SnapMagic is a great place to start for beginners. You still want to verify, but they have metrics on how many users have used the footprint and other "trustworthiness" indicator

The paper itself mentions the usefulness of the 1000C threshold: Solar process heat at above 1,000°C can decarbonize key industrial applications such as cement manufacturing and metallurgical extraction. The article is just running with t

If teens were playing games in front of the TV as much as people look at their phones today, they'd probably have actual ruined a generation.

If this says much of anything (which it probably doesn't), it's probably more about the efficacy of anti-racism training.

A physical line has historically been a de facto surge price. You have to pay the cost of the meal plus your own opportunity cost of waiting in line. The long line is also a signal of how long your food will really take. Mobile options almo

btw, I don't think the poster above is being snarky. There are many coffee shops that will serve two distinct single origin brews and you can just compare by ordering one of each.

Yeah they'll use a capacitor to charge up and then dump high current quickly (that's what they're good at, as opposed to batteries which are better suited for a longer, steadier, lower current output).

I would be surprised if the older, higher costs didn't include broker fees for scarce ICs in the supply shortage. I'm sure they've gone through a few revisions but part of that cost drop is simply price of components dropping
