Haha, did this months before trump the first, enjoying early start fruits!

Yeah, and then a bear comes and gorges on it. Every year, same bear, same tree, same woodpecker.

Large amount of any chemical pufiried, concentrated, and spilled in one place is a disaster

Improper utilization of any energy storage media - wood, electricity, even gyro-storage - is dangerous and produces hazardous waste

It's all about being technological and playing fair. There is nothing that switch from one energy storage to another would accomplish in terms of environmental safety.

I love NH3 idea, it's IMO 3rd best solution. Second best is alcohol. First best is making your energy locally with whatever you have and not wasting it for stupid things.

But all this will be easily messed up by reckless greedy maniacs that have most of the power in the world right now.

Here is something my dear friend wrote I just read yesterday: https://alexshvartsman.com/2024/12/03/the-rattler-by-leonid-kaganov/

I've read kiwis are forest floor bullies, isn't that true?

But, as far as I remember, major contributor to carbon emissions are not poor villages, but jet sets and their factories in poor villages exploiting the work of poor villagers who have no say about their air quality lest they lose their jobs like they lost their means to sustain themselves from farming. Indeed, just not flying for fun and not selling the oil and coal that do not really belong to them would be so much more technological than trying to get grants for things they do not understand (and waste them traveling the world on planes telling everyone they should invest in it too only to then burn the rest in taxes used to support oilgascoal industry directly or not). When you show perpetum mobile here it is totally relevant - that's how greenwashing works in terms of economy on every level, no matter what technology is being praised.

How about I want to have my inference process to negate error bound to my priors?

In object oriented onthology, to know is him is to be him.

That's essentially how many gases are made from mixtures, like notrogen or oxygen. Showing this as something new tells a lot about author's uderstanding. Carbon capture is not about making entirely new tech, it's optimization, and that's where startups suck at everything except for getting and then wasting cash.

What if we apply negative pressure?

This should promote matrix, not signal

So ok, these are just quasiparticles. Yes, we could have quasiparticles that behave like actual particles. Yes, it's just an abstraction. Yes, we can go batshit crazy in abstraction space and come up with anything.

This reminds me how some folks in ScientificAmerican modeled black hole with a vortex in water and found supersonic wave, which brought them to conclusions about possibility of passing through event horizon in actual black hole. bah.

In other words, when do I get some money to build a quantum quasiparticle computer and finally hack elliptic cryptography?

Though, as Rice alumni, can't deny still always awesome publicity of that university.
