Renewables are only viable if we find ways to store energy effectively ... kind of like the way fossil fuels do.

Otherwise, virtually all the renewables need some form of backup, usually fossil fuel based ... so you'll still need fossil fuels.

And by the way, the most touted renewables (wind/solar) favour only a fortunate few on the planet. So come up with a way of shipping that stored power ... kind of like the way fossil fuels can be shipped to wherever power is needed.

"Winter has arrived."

Could you hit any more topical achievements: helps the fisheries, help the climate through CARBON STORAGE? Crap might as well throw in helps peace in the Middle East and nurtures orphan kittens.

Big message: don't hunt whales because ... they're good for fisheries and the climate and ... everything.

Homer: "Right, Lisa, some wonderful, magical animal."

Think ( while you can ) at just how much this could be abused.

Thought: sleep learning/hypnosis. So can we put someone in an unconscious state, put suggestions in their head wake them and voila, brand new religious zealot?

So at least two stories [see also Project Neptune] today from anonymous readers, reminding us of long standing projects that have been mentioned here before. Interestingly both have some Canadian content.

Both really kind of non-stories, just PR or paid advertisements.

Unclear which, but there are no pics of the radar itself.
There are pics of boxes with the two LED packages. There is the picture of a box for a supposedly 10 GHz radar but with no obvious antenna or power supply.
The packages shown could house one or more half wavelength antennae ... but since there are no dimensions, it's a guess.
The packages shown could not house a power supply that would give the kind of ranges they are talking about, or if they can, perhaps there should be some technical specs to illustrate the radar's capabilities, not least of which might be beamwidth and power out.

24 GHz with a range of 100 yds, resolving multiple targets in something easily mounted on a bike ... really?! If you follow radar literature at all, you'll know that that is not trivial.

If you believe in this product, based on the info provided (and $26,000 worth of people apparently do), then you also bought sea monkeys and a time machine. How did those work out for you? There's one born every minute.

Why is the answer always assumed to be binary? Both processes could have been occuring simultaneously.

You don't mention any problem with paper and yet you wish to spend what will be a considerable sum up front (and in follow-on support) to become 'paperless'.

Is the reflective of your healthcare 'vision'? Is healthcare to you simply the provision of services without regard to effectiveness, efficiency, or cost? Maybe you should get in to fashion design instead?

So an individual in a publicly traded company, was the subject of a public article, and now Google now has to overlook it for "certain searches", while other searches will find the article about the article not being available in "certain searches".

Did the people who ruled on the 'right to be forgotten' even use the internet and Google?

Did Mr O'Neal do this as a publicity stunt to enhance his 'bad boy' image, a kind of reverse psychology thing?

It just sounds like nuclear waste programs, capture and store .... sure, but sooner or later you still have to come to grips with the amount of waste whether in raw form or captured form. It just seems like doing something simply for a short term gain, to be seen as doing something. Yet the real problem seems to be the inefficiencies of the processes producing the CO2 in the first place.

It's like flooding in a ship, you don't try to stop the flooding, you seek to slow the flooding to a manageable rate. The CO2 will be produced, the best you can hope is to slow the rate at which you're producing it.

In my city, there is a ~3 second difference between end of walk countdown and light going red, and light going green.
Put another way, there is a time period for every light change where _all_ the lights at the crossing are red.
Result: the yahoos trying to beat the red light are usually cleared through before a green light lets anyone else in to the intersection. (People run reds, but nobody appears to 'jump' green lights.)

1) Your problem statement is absent. The only thing you have is a worry that the current language is 'ossifying'. That means 'not changing' as opposed to 'not working'. Conclusion: no problem.

2) You don't want 'buzzy' implying that you want something stable, long-lasting .... 'ossified'? Conclusion: You've got that already.

Therefore: you've got what you need. Quit whining and work with it.

Note: you clearly don't have what you think you want ... but if you're asking the question here in \., you really don't know what you want. Therefore: you've got what you need. Quit whining and work with it.

A Promise: when your current software stops meeting your needs, you will able to identify the problems, and then what you need will become apparent.

Really? That's it?
You could save that many without the mass surveillance, just by increasing hospital staff and ERT numbers.
Make it millions and you'll have my attention.
Tens of millions and you'll have my whole hearted support and participation.

Germany like Ontario (to a much lesser extent) invested in wind farms and solar.
In Ontario, all wind farms have to be installed with back-up generators, gas-turbines for the most part.
Why?
On hot, windless days of summer, when demand peaks for air conditioning, the back-ups kick-in for the useless wind turbines.
In winter, when the skies are mostly grey, the solar is mostly useless to meet the demand peak caused by electric heating. When the wind does blow in winter, the speeds are usually above the wind turbine limits.
Renewables in Ontario, mostly a feel-good but large waste of money. Maybe it's the same in Germany. Either way, ways to store hydro power would help stabilise things and bring costs down ... and maybe make renewables viable.

A province that, because it has little storage capability, has a rigid hydro system geared to meet peak demand and 'dump' power during low demand periods. It's a province that has paid others to take its surplus power.

A solution to both Germany's and Ontario's problem is creating storage capability, and that needs innovative research world-wide. Sadly, the focus is mostly on new ways to _produce_ power. Go figure.
