Fluoride topically applied to teeth is to put back fluoride that has been leeched out of the enamel. Swallowed fluoride is needed to make the enamel in the first place. I'm not sure how helpful it is to adults, but kids certainly need

There is no air involved. They are pumping water out, creating a vacuum. Water rushing back in generates power. No need to compress air or have a hose to the surface.

I hadn't thought about heat. While the air will be hot, that heat was already there (the heat energy in 50 liters of air compressed into 1 liter, just like the compressor in a heat pump). I think this makes it even more viable, as the

I'm curious why pumping the water out, creating a vacuum for water to rush in, is better than pumping air in for water to displace. I had assumed it would be cheaper to have large underwater balloon connected by a hose to a pontoon, an

It depends on the climate, and I think the smell you are talking about is more likely mold or mildew. In the tropics I found anything left wet for more than an hour needed to be rewashed, as it was already smelling. In colder and drier clim

Accounting tricks are likely the best option. Buy your offshore supplier, or setup an offshore reseller. Start supplying the components to yourself at a loss, making the cost of that component cheaper when it comes to tariffs or this 85% ca

Their price may well be too cheap. Maybe they make a loss due to unexpected costs (thin margins == risk). Or maybe they are priced too cheap, because they know increasing prices will lose even more money by losing more profitable business t

Your $1500 includes all the overheads that a storage provider amortizes over their entire customer base. At scale, the cost comes down to the cost of the hard drives, plugging them in, keeping them on, and bandwidth. The margins are really

Very hard to convince people to remove Chinese EVs from the market once they are there. Making EVs less affordable is not a green policy, and doesn't get votes from the other end of politics either unless you actually have a local car

It certainly is arguable. The more unambiguous the law, the less room for common sense decisions. Now there is the situation where people who physically appear male but declared female at birth must use female facilities, by law. And cannot
