It does make sense if battery costs don’t drop as much as we hope. Really, I view Hydrogen Fuel Cells as the backup to if battery tech doesn’t have a major breakthrough.

Poetry is still very popular where I live, which brings me to my point. I feel like you’re dismissing alternative perspectives without giving them adequate consideration because they don’t correspond with your personal experiences.

> Language is just a friction that stop us from communicating

There’s an entire school of psychology that considers language to be both the medium and the message. The idea is that your thoughts are shaped by language.

Calling it “just friction” is a gross oversimplification that treats vast amounts of salient nuance as so much obsolete baggage. Language is not a vestigial organ to be resigned to some psycho-cultural waste bin.

The wide variety of languages in the word provide more material for innovation: certain concepts are genuinely easier to express in specific languages because there is no truly appropriate equivalent.

> cultural context

Ding! Ding! Ding!

Diplomacy would suffer massively if we used software translation exclusively. And I wouldn’t want a psychologist who was unable to understand you without a software program.

Not to go off topic, but we don’t actually have AI yet. AI is a buzzword that seems to be constantly misused. As far as I am aware, we have some machine learning algorithms.

Oh, no this wasn’t for making hydrogen. We were making feed water from salt water.

The study implies that refitting the pipelines to carry hydrogen gas is going to be much tougher than some have previously suggested.

> Another very problematic byproduct of electrolysis is brine. Handled improperly, brine disposal on an industrial scale could devastate entire ecosystems. That would include large ocean biomes. Responsible brine disposal is expensive, so will big industry do the right thing?

I know an industrial employer who just made sure their Brine was dumped 5NM from land and said that was sufficient. I’m still struggling to understand why they believed that.

I disagree with your prediction of 2.7 Billion more people. That would put the world population at about 10.8B which yes, some analysts predict, but the majority seem to predict 10B by 2080, not 2050.

“ We still know next to nothing about the brain, all its purposes, and how it operates.”

If you’d like I can post articles with at least a dozen Doctors of Neuroscience who disagree.

I never said they didn’t know, I said the they were rich enough not to care. If you buy a super yacht it can cost millions a year to maintain and crew: but you can easily recoup that by using it to butter VIPs. A billionaire can use a house to help with business deals whereas a mere millionaire buys it to flip.

The very rich don’t care if their $5,000,000 home is underwater in 20 years.

I guess you could tax their loans against their equity. If the was a tax whenever they borrowed money they might end up just selling and paying tax.

Can you explain the “Cyber Acid” and “Cyber Stasis?”

Honestly, I favour hydrogen for large scale grid storage over transportation.

I think it’s essentially a digitized adhocracy.

It depends on your local installer and energy costs. There are people near me who have spent $3k on installation and purchase and saved $5k in electricity over 10 years. Your city is not everyone’s city. My area lets you sell excess power back, meaning you can actually make a hefty profit when you’re on vacation.

“ Looking at an intersection and seeing clearly defined street names.”

I think a HUD with location data, store hours, contact names, and more would be neat.

To be fair, I’m biased because I hate MultiSim, and that’s the only digital electronics software I’ve used. Are there better ones?

For the Metaverse to get real traction, it needs to be more focused. A good start would be partnering with a university to create VR classes. Zoom Classes are okay, but Quest classes would be better suited for lab simulations. Imagine being offered an Ivy League level education for half the price and from your own house. VR students would be an easy cash cow, they have to buy their own headset, don’t need seats or food. As AI gets better at grammar and plagiarism checking, we could have a future where bachelor degrees become truly affordable for the first time in a long time.

Those companies are mostly using grey and blue hydrogen, because it’s 𝗰𝘂𝗿𝗿𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗹𝘆 much more cost effective.

You mentioned ammonia and I responded that ammonia production usually requires you to produce hydrogen first.

I prefer a decentralized autonomous organization focused party over a chatbot. A digital avatar controlled by blockchain voting seems like a more serious attempt at retaking democracy.

Has much more to do with the amount of sun and water they have. The geography itself is a key part of why they can go green faster than some other countries.

As far as I am aware, ammonia production uses hydrogen as a reactant. Meaning that the cost of green hydrogen is relevant to ammonia being used as an energy source.
