Short answer, no.

Long answer, not in the foreseeable future, unless someone strikes their best luck.
Metal air batteries (lithium in particular) suffer from a bajillion problem that are not even close to solving in the lab, let alone in a device.
Someone might within 5 years come up with a working lab demonstrator, but something with enough power to move a car (and a "sports" car as a Tesla at that) is way off, considering the current state of research. So considering that the patents will be expired when the technology might be ready, it's just empty internet talk.

The US Government has been out-lobbied by Korean lobbyists? Or is Samsung's plan much bigger than Apple thought?

I generally attend a couple of conferences a year, and try to present some of my work at least at one event (I'm out of academia so publishing is not a priority).
It's a great way of keeping in touch with the latest bits of research, but mostly it's about the networking.

And the fact that some conferences are organized in beautiful places does not hurt!

Here in Europe it is widespread belief that the fact that 1 and 2 euros are in coins are a reason for inflation. You think twice before spending a bill, while psychologically a coin is easier to part with.
It does happen quite often to have 10-20eur in coins so it's probably not all wrong.

In any case, the N9 will benefit a free operating system from Mer and Nemo UX - which will be application compatible with Sailfish.

This. The N9 app store is pretty much dead and it's quite understandable why. If Sailfish has some success then we'll see more apps developed.

The more I use Android the more I LOVE my N9 the more I hate Nokia for killing it.
I know there is a lot of politics involved (not last the usual OSS community circle jerking) but the capabilities of that OS over anything else are amazing.

Yes, it's trollish, but if you have ever had to do business with Japan you will know how hard it is to carry out any sort of meaningful conversation without resorting to a professional translator.

The best is having a one hour long meeting in English and then have your Japanese boss redo the meeting in Japanese when you have left the room.

I have been suggesting my employer for years that introducing Japanese classes for the Western staff would be the single most effective improvement that could be done to my company, but alas, it costs money, and companies love their money.

Just to be pedantic, he invented Nickel-Metal Hydride batteries which happen to be used in most hybrids, but of course are used in a million other places as well.
RIP.

On a bad day I feel like we don't have that much time left between climate change, oil depletion, bad governments and general idiocracy.
I'd like to see if we're still around in 100 years, if we have done something to change things and if somethings has actually changed.
And maybe a quick peek at how my life turned out, why not?

Noone has mentioned it yet: Harmattan on Nokia N9.
Fantastic OS on a fantastic phone.

I'm Italian and my breakfast needs bread, Nutella and a big cup of milk to dip into.
Shudder all you want.

If you like the shape of the phone, just get an N9 :)

And yes, it runs Linux!
