ISO publishes in PDF, but their Standard template is a Word .doc! These things are drafted by committees. ISO Templates

Does charge-only limit you to 5V/0.5A? Unless it's PD (communicating over the voltage lines), you have to hope the charger recognizes the cable's identifying resistor (or whatever) across the data lines.

Legal training material will usher in the golden age of AI silent, black-and-white film!

Yeah, the commenter must have meant "current design projects"...like this Radia thing. Next blade shipment design exercise: SpaceX Super Heavy.

More appropriations so that "NASA's remaining commitment to conducting Gold-colored Standard Science will continue as long as it supports our goal of putting American boots on Mars' rocky soil."

Pretends? He's so smart that all his superthoughts get all jammed up between his brain and mouth, where they emerge as a series of sentence fragments. Parsing them for reassembly makes me tired.

I read up on weather radio products after this flood news. The "Specific Area Message Encoding" protocol enables you to receive only those alerts that cover your immediate area. Of course, you have to have a radio that decodes those signals and you local authorities have to opt in, so it's not a cure-all. From reviews, getting the right radio and setting it up properly are non-trivial tasks.

This is why we should outlaw bat ranches.

The linked materials are light on the technology. Four clicks in, they appear to be using banks of small-cell Li-ion batteries.

Also, written specifications and branding don't enable specific performance. That's done by the underlying technology.

Like landscapes in open-world games, is there an AI-powered speaker/app that continuously creates procedurally generated music? I guess it's just Deezer with the AI filter inverted.

Are you suggesting that Colossal is working on Phase 1 of its secret plan to Bring Back the Ice Age?!? ;)

Where is the Chevy Montana? Brazil has compact pickup trucks from just about every car manufacturer. They're everywhere! We'll, not here. There's the Hyundai Santa Cruz.

I suspect (weasely! I didn't read the research!) that the effects are measurable but the causes are vague. Not a large, double-blind, clinical study.

In at least one arena, it's still "on the horizon" (for a few years). The 2023 NASA Aerospace Battery Workshop had at least three papers on the topic (search for "solid").
