Yeah, you're full of shit... what kind of phd program is this where your advisor has no idea what your research is until you turn in the draft of your dissertation?
I could maybe believe this in some kind of humanities program, but in the sciences you're working on what your professor (the one who submitted that grant proposal) tells you to work on.
10% over thousands or millions of computers is a lot.
No it fucking isn't. This is the same bullshit bad math greenies are always spouting. "If everyone does a little, it adds up to a lot"
Big savings require BIG changes on the part of each individual. If you save 4W displaying black screens on you LCD, even if you run it 24/7 for a year, you're only saving the equivalent of ONE FREAKING GALLON of gasoline.
I'm guessing you did a lousy job promoting your kickstarter, but your reward structure is also shit. The only one worth backing is the $40 level. Also it's honestly a pretty boring project - I only back kickstarters if there is something unique about them that I can't get anywhere else. A claimed reduction in power usage doesn't really cut it.
If your child has a bad genetic disorder, chance are that someone else's (healthy) cord blood would be more useful to them. But if no one is going to donate, where will it come from?
The equation you are using is only valid if alpha*L is of order 1 or greater. For neutrinos, alpha is so incredibly tiny that the exponential is well in the linear approximation regime over the length of the earth, so the absorption in each meter of path length is approximately equal.
How do you suggest one go about killing a fruit?
I suppose a dessicator would do the trick, but personally I enjoy devouring my fruit while it's still living.
Look you inbred moron, I'll explain this very simply to you one final time:
Carnot efficiency is the maximum possible energy efficiency that any possible heat engine can achieve, when perfectly designed, engineered and operated without real-world constraints like friction and dirt. If you are achieving 35% energy efficiency, and Carnot is 73%, to double your efficiency you need to create the PERFECT engine and operate it in a cleanroom. THIS KIND OF IMPROVEMENT WILL NEVER HAPPEN. If you are lucky you might be able to squeeze another 10% out with your ridiculous waste heat capture scheme.
Hey retard, there is a pretty big difference between efficiency and Carnot efficiency. Hint: if you are achieving over 50% Carnot efficiency, there is no possible way for you to double your absolute efficiency.
Hey dumbfuck, go back to wikipedia and look a few sentences up where they calculate the carnot efficiency of that automobile engine to be 73% Guess what? 35% is about 50% of 73% dipshit.
And nice job completely changing the subject with your 1mpg non sequitur. I can tell you right now it's not going to affect oil usage by more than a few percent, so suck my dick.
As someone who doesn't bike regularly, I've completed a century (100 mile ride) in less than 5 hours. 200 miles in a day should be no problem for an experienced racer, and even 400 miles is probably not outside the realm of possibility.
You're picking nits: ok, you don't spark two wires together, you spark 3-4 pairs of wires together. Not much difference.
Since I know for a fact that it's possible to start my car this way because I've done it, why don't you give your theories on why it's impossible?
And on the off chance you're not full of shit, can you tell me how I'd go about clearing the steering lock?
You're making hotwiring a car out to be some extremely complicated thing. It's not, I was able to figure it out from scratch in 15 minutes of boredom, I'm pretty sure an accomplished car thief could do it in a matter of seconds.
I have started my 1999 Corolla by yanking a connector out from behind the steering wheel and bridging things with paper clips.
Wasn't able to figure out how to get the steering lock to release though.

go back to the east coast, douchebag.

Maybe get a clue about cell technology and physics before your next post.
Dumbshit, see the part about "less than the normal speed of traffic"?
Just because your impatient ass wants to blast past everyone else doesn't mean we have to move over and make way for you.
Bullshit. Car engines regularly achieve 50% or more of Carnot efficiency. You are not going to be doubling that.
why don't you suggest a better method then, jackoff.
Really? That's the part you think is important? Please go shoot yourself.

Well lesse, with no higgs field you would float off into space as you'd have no mass..
Human rights are not created by laws, dumbfuck.

Presumably Howard wrote a number of his works prior to his last year of life.
