The big question will be can you fill one up before the warranty expires?

It is not great where you are prioritizing run time execution costs, but it is fantastic when you are prioritizing the cost of developing the code.

Given the trajectory in increased execution speed from modern CPU's, RAM, SSD's etc, slow execution may not be that slow and is guaranteed to get better over time.

My roof design might accommodate some solar panels. I seriously doubt I can put any molten salt, gravity, flywheel storage up there, and I doubt if my local Zoning Bylaws will allow them in my backyard.

Total vaccinations worldwide as of Aug 26 is 5.13 billion.

Anti-vaxxers appear not to appreciate that the choice is not, do you want to get vaccinated or not; it is, do you want to get vaccinated or get Covid-19.

Covid-19 will be with us for a long (many years) timeframe. If you are not vaccinated you will (bar extreme and permanent isolation) get it eventually.

Do you want the usually mild and short-termed side effects of the vaccine? Or do you want the usually worse and potentially lethal side effects of getting Covid-19?

Darwin's Law will sort this out over the next few years.

The current deployed EV's are owned by people that find them easy to charge. Either because of infrequent use or because they can charge overnight at home.

This is the low-hanging fruit of EV ownership.

There are a large number of vehicle owners that will not be able to fit that usage (or charging) pattern.

That would make landlines preferable to cell lines. Fairly hard to do a SIM hack on a landline.

They can share a TOTP code. As simple as taking a picture of the QR-Code so they can both add it to their TOTP app. Best to make sure the picture is deleted after they enroll. You could print it out and store it safely too.

And they are UWB tags, not Bluetooth.

I suspect that there is a wet market within 10km of any spot picked at random in any 10 million population city in China.

Engineered in Lab also requires Escaped from Lab to get it out of the lab.

Unless you want to add another option called "Intentionally Released from Lab". That in turn can be standalone without the Engineered in Lab option.

It's possible (but not probable) that it was intentionally released.

Generators modelled the extra revenue versus the cost of winterizing their equipment and decided that in the Texas market the investment (cost of upgrading) would have a negative payback. I.e. overtime they would lose money by doing it instead of simply shutting down.

If you require only some (e.g. coal, gas, nuclear) to do the upgrades then overtime you'll simply force them out of the market faster as again they won't be able to see a return on their additional investment for the upgrade and may decide to shutter their plant.

The Texas market needs to find a way to incentivize all producers so that there is guaranteed capacity available even if it is not always used.

The problem (if there actually is a problem) is that the vaccine trials focussed on a single thing. Does using the vaccine result in less disease.

The answer is yes.

If you want to know if the vaccines also prevent transmission then you need to do additional trials to test that (and that is happening, but it is not something that happens overnight.)

Until the results of further trials are available the fail-safe answer is that we don't know if getting vaccinated prevents transmission so continue with social distancing, masks, hand washing etc.

Anyone that has the DTK has been using Rosetta 2. Works quite well. Just download random Mac App's and they work (i.e. Intel based ones that have not been released as Intel/Arm binaries.)

The Republicans govern by a poll.

Every day they poll one person and change their policies to match his thinking of the day.

Unfortunately, it is the same person every day.
