China is currently holding back on Flu that is moving from Chicken (avian flu) to Humans. It is killing everybody that it infects. Once this one mixes with Human flu and can fully transfer human2human(which it is thought IS the case), then we will see a pandemic.
He pretty much did that yesterday. What was gained? Nothing.
In fact, all of his perjury from yesterday and before will kill him in the FBI investigation. We all would have been better had he told the truth.
OH, BTW, LG can do the same. In fact, they are working towards that. They have to figure out how to manufacture it correctly, or they will have either shorter lifetimes, or possibly fires.
The 2170 R&D is 100% Teslas and the article is wrong about it being Panasonic. Panasonic manufacturers the battery, since it is their equipment. But it is Tesla's instructions.
Tesla has devoted a LOT of money to R&D. In fact, some 17% of their revenues goes to R^D. That is one of the largest in the world.
EU has done a good job of lowering their emissions over the last 20 years.
America has done a good job over the last 10 years. Note that the first 10 years, America was still continuing up.
Asia is a fucking disaster. China is not only building out massive new coal plants (not just replacing old ones), but, is building out another 300+ GW of new coal plants around Asia, Africa, and South America, along with another 300+ GW in China, just over the next 2-3 years.
No, America DOES matter. Look, all nations have to drop emissions OR we fail. It is not fair to say that America or China or India or whomever needs to drop. Instead, if we quit adding new emissions while dropping esp across the worst nations, then it will work.
You are missing the big pix. We cannot tax just CHina's. That is a tariff and is illegal. HOWEVER, we CAN put a slowly increasing tax on all CONSUMED goods/services based on which STATE and NATION that the WORST SUB-PART/SERVICE comes from. BUT, they must all be treated the same. Then it gets past WTO. To keep it fair, we use sats to track CO2 in and out of regions. And then normalize based on CO2 emitted per $ GDP.
uh no. You are correct in saying that America is neither the biggist nor the worst, HOWEVER, that does not mean that we are not big. We are 14% of the emitted CO2. To be fair, once OCO3 comes on-line and we can fully map the emissions around the world, I think that America's calculated levels will remain about the same, however, our % of the total will drop. BUT, we are STILL A LARGE EMITTER. Make no mistake about it. We are either #2, or possibly #3.
America has been headed in the right direction for the last 10 years. We need to continue that. Right now, it is the states that are doing it, not the feds. In fact, Trump's recent bill about methane emissions by oil companies may finally be the bill that increases America's GHG emissions.
OTOH, Tesla is continuing to push EVs at a faster and faster rate and consumers are walking away from ICE.
And yes, the HUGE emitter is China. The worst part is that they are continuing to grow and the far left along with trolls are good with that.
Careful. There are loads of far lefties here combined with trolls that will scream that China deserves to pollute. What amazes me, is that they continue to justify CHina's massive emissions as well as rising per capita, as being China's right.
The problem was that Iridium was to use a system that costs 200M / launch back then and only took up a couple of sats / launch. As such, it was something like 20 launches to put up their system.
IOW, setting up Iridium was HORRIBLY expensive.
Now, Iridum just did the second version with 50M / launch and 10 sats / launch, So for less than 4 launches from before, they did this entire new network.
Not sure why you think that MS needs a refresh.
We own a 2013, and I can tell you that the current 2018 is radically different than ours. Basically, Tesla constantly improves the cars (iterative design), while other car makers have to do the refresh due to no improvements (waterfall design).
who said that LG/SK cells are cheaper? They make heavy use of things like Cobalt, while Tesla 2170 does not.
And where are you seeing LG/SK with higher energy density over the 2170?
Back in mid 70s, mine burst, and I was supposed to be in hospital/Student Med. Center for 1-2 weeks. I walked out of the student med center after 4 days. They were MAD at me for that.
uh no. The German system copies AMerica's Medicare system, EXCEPT that the German's apply it to ALL citizens.
Here in America, it is only for the old folks with expensive medicine.
Sundar Pichai is destroying Google. He has been busy shutting down a number of projects and then creating new ones elsewhere.
In particular, he is turning over a LOT of AI R&D that America actually paid for, over to China.
This current project is simply an extension of the rest of what he has done.
China is going to gut Google like it did GE and IBM.
Another one not mentioned is the massive weight of water for when we create MASSIVE dams such as 3 gorges, Kariba Dam, Bratsk Dam, etc. In fact, the biggest ones have had plenty of earthquakes associated with them.
Need to know all sinks and sources. And the poles are changing from sinks to sources. If lucky, N.A. conveyor along with a few others come to a halt for several years and allow the poles to refreeze.
??? Who said anything about porn? Near as I can tell, he was looking for somebody looking like a child as a GF. He apparently did not mind being sugar daddy to her, hence the $500. The only photo that should have been involved was her license. Assuming she had a fake license, i would guess that he would be cleared.
In popular usage, the word pedophilia is often applied to any sexual interest in children or the act of child sexual abuse.[1][2][7] This use conflates the sexual attraction to prepubescent children with the act of child sexual abuse, and fails to distinguish between attraction to prepubescent and pubescent or post-pubescent minors.[8][9] Researchers recommend that these imprecise uses be avoided, because although people who commit child sexual abuse are sometimes pedophiles,[7][10] child sexual abuse offenders are not pedophiles unless they have a primary or exclusive sexual interest in prepubescent children,[8][11][12] and some pedophiles do not molest children.[13]
Many ppl see pedophiles as those who would pursue and underage child.
The fact that she told him that she was 17 (i.e. just barely legal), and that he paid her $500 speaks more about him, than my assuming the common usage of pedophilia, does about me.
BTW, since he was going to go so close to the line, I would have thought that he would at least check her drivers license. The fact that he did not care, again, speaks volumes.
And yes, we all make mistakes. WHen I was 21, working as a doorman, I met a french girl. Only she was not french, but she had a friend's modified passport. Turns out that she was 17, but I did not find out for a long time. BUT, I was not looking for a young kid and esp, not what I was 30+.

Sit tight. It is going to drop for a bit, likely below 200. And that is in spite of how well Musk and M3 have done.
I'm sure some did. I hate politicians that lie.

uh no.
It is TESLA, that reduced the cobalt used in the cells.
You will notice that it is Panasonic (using Tesla's R&D) that will remove ALL COBALT from their li batteries soon.
LG is currently using 612 (i.e. 6 parts nickel, 1 part Manganese, and 2 parts Cobalt), and trying to get to 811.
Tesla 2170 started several years ago as 811, and they are working to change it to 810. IOW, Cobalt will be a none-issue for Tesla on the next version.
The problem was that Iridium was to use a system that costs 200M / launch back then and only took up a couple of sats / launch. As such, it was something like 20 launches to put up their system.
IOW, setting up Iridium was HORRIBLY expensive.
Now, Iridum just did the second version with 50M / launch and 10 sats / launch, So for less than 4 launches from before, they did this entire new network.
So many sat connections coming to the planet.
I think that the net neutrality issue is about to go away.
the original cell was one the cheapest and highest density. Now the 2170 has 50% increase in volume for 200% energy. as to pricing, Hyundai/Kia pay cost or less from LG. LG continues to sell at decent prices to GM and non s. Korean firms. In addition add in the fact that Tesla has a fraction of Cobalt that others use. Then add in S. Korean one of a number of nations that are manipulating their won vs. the dollar. Sorry, but I seriously doubt that the others come close.

Musk really needs to get a president into Tesla to handle day-2-day stuff.
