China always aspired to be the world's undisputed leader in science and technology, and Trump is giving them what they want.

We've invented nanoscale architectures which can meaningfully mimic human intelligence, but we won't be able to figure out a way to keep crops a few degrees cooler?
Oh, we can figure out a way easily enough. Figuring out a way to do it that doesn't quintuple food prices is the more difficult part.
A lot of people don't realize how valuable "environmental services" (like crop-friendly weather) are to the economy until suddenly they don't have them anymore, and have to start spending money to try to reproduce those same conditions artificially. Building air-conditioned indoor farms is going to be hell of a lot of capital-intensive than just essentially planting seeds in the ground and gathering the result food afterwards.
In this case I believe the hottest temperature will be in the limit of approaching zero kelvin from below i.e. just below 0K
Hmm, sounds like you've caused an underflow on an unsigned value. I recommend restarting the simulation from the top and hoping it goes better on the next iteration.
we have made the difficult decision to end technical support for older Wemo products, effective January 31, 2026. After this date, several Wemo products will no longer be controllable through the Wemo app.
What made the decision so difficult was that they decided they had to give refunds to everyone whose devices no longer functioned properly, because their customers were no longer getting the functionality they had paid for.
Right?
At some point they'll have AI-controlled robots going through the waste streams and the landfills and sorting all the useful materials out of them. Once you have robots capable of doing the tedious work, landfill becomes a valuable ore, full of useful materials.
Result? Overproduction of electricity on sunny days. To the extent that you have to pay to put energy on the grid.
Between Bitcoin and AI, "too much electricity" shouldn't be an insurmountable problem for anyone. Either of things will happily consume as much electricity as you can throw at it, and want more. Of course, if you think those things are a waste of power, you could start using excess power to synthesize fuel to sell.
If you didn't have an interest before in eating tinamou, why would you develop one just because some company makes them big?
I mean, there's literally photographs. Here's another shot of the NACS charger. Here's one of a Tesla plugged in, to a NACS connector. Here's another.
I mean, you're asking me to not believe my own eyes.

We have a standard J-1772, and there was none of this plug type supplied at the ~4 charge stations (2 plugs each). Most if the plug-types were the CCS-Type 1. This station info should be updated.Sep 9, 2023

This place is open and working! I called first to make sure the gate was open. Andy answered and was so sweet. He greeted us at the gate and took us to the charger.Nov 24, 2022

Arrived when museum was closed and the gate was locked so there was no access to the chargers. their phone message said their hours were Friday through Sunday? But that we could arrange visits to the museum on other days.Aug 27, 2022

We were in a pretty tricky situation in this area on the way to Vegas. Charging facilities are fairly limited in this area but this location helped close the gap to get to the closest super charger in needles. It seems that the charger can be accessed at any time of the day. The location is scenic with art installations by the host museum. Watch out for wild life. Leave a donation this service is seriously needed (and appreciated) in this area.Mar 1, 2022

What a neat Historic Route 66 spot where my Spirit of Tesla - 2017 Tesla Model X used the service entrance to get to the windmill for a Level 2 Tesla destination charger (5 kW atv240 volts)...along with 120- volt Level 1 outlet. I will be back to visit this exquisite "Study The Past" historical site.Dec 13, 2021

Nice place to go back in history. Very enjoyable
The Tesla Destination is now housed in a shelter. I didn’t test it with my adapter but looks in great condition.Nov 21, 2020

Great historical museum on Route 66! Just 120v right now but 240v planned soon.
And the worst thing is not you dying, but the fact that you'll probably be killing someone else who was being a responsible driver, and possibly their entire family, in the process.
Please demonstrate how using the bathroom and buying a snack / drink turns a 24 hour journey into a week-long journey.
Quite the opposite, not taking rest breaks can very readily turn a 24 hour journey into an eternal journey, when you die in a car accident.
My car has a built in charger map; you don't need an app. And for at least their own network, Tesla payment on Superchargers is the simplest thing imaginable: just plug in whenever you want and disconnect whenever you want, without doing literally anything else. All chargers should work this way for all EVs (with credit cards / apps only as a backup).
When I road trip, I just plug into the wall (though we are 230V). Gives like a half charge overnight (and because you're not arriving on empty, you leave at somewhere between 2/3rds and completely full). Also, when traveling to see sights, there's (at least where I am) commonly chargers at the parking lot, so while you're out doing whatever for X minutes/hours, your car is also getting charged.
A couple years ago I drove around Iceland (one of the least densely populated countries on Earth) in my Tesla while friends and family were in an ICE vehicle. I was waiting on them just as often as they were waiting on me. And this is a model I got at the start of 2020, using a battery pack that had been little updated since the car first came out in 2017, at a time when most of Iceland's chargers were still 50kW.
I wish Colossal would just be more honest about what they're doing. They're not "bringing back lost species"; they're inserting just a handful of genes into modern species, genes which have the most impact on physical appearance. This is very different from bringing back the species itself, the entire genome. I'm glad that Slashdot's blurb at least had lots of caveats ("to resemble", etc).
(I won't even say that what Colossal is doing is useless. Their modified animals certainly seem a better starting point for future engineering efforts than just starting from scratch; at the very least, they'll be the right size for e.g. gestation / ovogenesis of the further modified progeny)
There's also the issue that Europeans as well found it difficult to conceive of the concept that an entire species could just go extinct.
You're already carrying the sphere!
