  • If you're measuring energy input by rating on the box yes, but instead of assuming that is your measurement data, they assumed perfect conversion.

    It has the same end result descriptively but I'd argue that perfect conversion paints an easier to understand theoretical image, vs a more rigid practical image

  • But given the choice between coins you'd still most likely pick the one that was successful, even if its 99% chance its nonsense - the other coins would have 99.9% (made up numbers).

    So out of our analogy, we can't be sure beyond resonable doubt to arrest Boeing, but a message has clearly been sent to any future whistleblowers

  • I think the most confusing part is that you want both the backend and gui to exist, yet don't like the current back end.

    Realistically you could create some super weird controller using all your sensors at once and just wrap it around termux/adb.

    Things like termux' first goal is to work both programmatically and via a user, a wheel that would be pretty difficult to recreate just for phones

  • So I suppose put it like this: what if the way for Facebook to make the most money is all their current operations + pushing the rightwing agenda? (or leftwing depending on what team you're on).

    How is that any less meddling than tik tok? Sure Facebook is based in america, but has clearly shown it cares much more about its own interests than any country.

    It just feels like trusting a tank of gas cause you just saw someone get lit on fire by a tank of diesel

  • For sure, and thats generally the goal of any engieering - the biggest question is what error are we measuring? Something like vesting a fully autonomous drone, not even close; tubes in a funny shape that trap all light, were already there 99.9%

  • As a nano engineer, youre 100% right - with the added slowdowns of safety research. Many of these particles are entirely different beasts on a nanoscale, an example commonly used is microscopic copper is just copper, nanoscopic will have you dead within the hour if inhaled (dont quote my timeframe on that one).

    That being said many cool materials are still coming out, just aren't yet at that commercialized availability level yet.

    For example graphene has the potential to replace copper -at least in high performance applications- cause its got some fucked levels of conductivity

    Edit for some more examples cause I'm a nerd about this stuff:

    Carbon nanotubes make vantablack, the material that can absorb 99.9% of visible light (not that exciting beyond a party trick commercially, but in areas trying to minimize electromagnetic noise this is revolutionary).

    Silver nanoparticles have been shown to have passive disinfectant properties, leading to the possibility of a cloth that you could run dirty water through and make it drinkable.

    And my favorite being we've already created the carbon based structures (can't recall if it was nanotubes specifically) with theoretically high enough tensile strength that if made a couple kilometers long could be used to lasso an asteroid and create a space elavator
