Slim odds that caffeine just happens to be the best chemical for slowing crystal formation.
I'm optimistic that further research will lead to further improvement.

From everyone else's perspective, there's a constant stream of annoying drones flying overhead (and occasionally crashing into their neighborhood) destroying their ability to peacefully enjoy their backyards. I guess that's an externality that just doesn't need to be considered.
That's why Amazon is going to have their drones fly in at altitude, balloon down to complete the delivery and back up, out of the annoyingly loud range.
By the end of this week, Boeing plans to send the software updates and plan for enhanced pilot training. After the FAA approves the fix, Boeing said it will send the software update to customers.
There have already been significant finds. The Notations for Difference Engine 1, dating from 1834, thought to exist, had never come to light. These have now been found and represent a crucial piece in the puzzle of the developmental trajectory of the symbolic language Babbage developed as a design aid, to describe and specify his engine, and used extensively in the development of the Analytical Engine.
Anyone who has been tasked with taking over a project from someone else (retired, sacked, beheaded, whatever) will recognise this feeling
The survey so far has identified mis-titled drawings, single drawings that have two unrelated catalogue entries, and drawings known to exist from earlier scholarly work but not located.
The hope of the project is to have a working machine in time for Babbages sesquicentenary in 2021.
It's funny that Trump can't block people on Twitter because that would infringe on people's rights to communicate but somehow Twitter can ban whoever they like and that doesn't infringe on those exact same rights.
A bit of an inconsistency there.
There is no inconsistency. A judge ruled that replies to Trump's tweets were protected by the First Amendment: "Congress shall make no law [...] abridging the freedom of speech". Twitter is not the government, they are not bound by the First Amendment, only by their terms of service, to which every user must agree. The terms of service unsurprisingly say users get to keep using the service only so long as they conform to Twitter's rules.
Who would buy a proprietary box for a single use case in this era?
You won't be buying a proprietary box, you'll be renting it, and the box will be "in the cloud", not on your premises.
maybe they will pull their heads in and sell something consumers want
I won't pay more than $400 for a phone
I need root access without having to risk bricking the device
The battery must be easily replaceable
It must have a standard audio jack
Is this so hard?
I don't want a notch.
I want the phone to be thick enough to hold a battery that will last longer.
The extra thickness and making the sides less slick will make it less likely to slip out of my hand.
The reduced chance of dropping the phone means they can go back to making the glass more scratch resistant.
They could make the front glass easier to replace if it does crack.
The one thing I can compromise on is a memory card slot; if they build in a decent amount (minimum 128GB) of storage without jacking the price (a name-brand 128 GB micro SD card is only $25), I can do without the slot.
Be careful when a loop exits to the same place from side and bottom.
