Batteries. That what the word "buffer" above means. Batteries. They trickle-charge them 24/7, and that is where the car-charging current comes from. The grid never sees that sort of current.
They would need their own utility substation to use the grid as a current source even with the regular superchargers they have now. It would be prohibitively expensive.
And that battery buffer is the same thing that a photo-voltaic or wind installation needs! That's the big savings. Instead of one system to buffer the charge current and another to buffer the generator power, you just need one battery bank that serves both purposes!
On the other hand, if you had them, the remaining bitcoins wouldn't have as high of a value either, only the bitcoins in circulation are actually valuable, losing a bitcoin actually increases the overall value of the remaining coins.
No, the individual value of a coin went up, but the overall value didn't. If the whole value of all bitcoins was $1000, and you lost $100 worth, now the total purchasing power of the circulating coins is lower. It will eventually re-balance, but it lags behind the whole way.
Just like, if you increase the currency supply, you increase the total purchasing power temporarily until it re-balances through inflation. That's why it is important to have low but positive inflation.
I sang it a few times, and I just can't get it to stick.
I sing, "And I can't get it out of my head," and my brain answers back, "I'm Henry the Eighth I am, Henry the Eighth I am I am, I got married to the widow next door..."
It is just built-in price deflation. That is why small business people who only do short term planning are happy to accept it, but larger businesses never will. Low but positive inflation is an important and desirable trait in an economy, built-in deflation basically disqualifies a fiat currency from long-term relevance.
If somebody loses a bitcoin, speculators who sat on their coins own more buying power. And there is no correction mechanism. In a bitcoin economy, the value of work in the future is always lower than the value of work today. You just circle around the drain until eventually somebody owns everything still in circulation.
X.com was so great, the thing they did that was better than paypal was that they were a real bank, and so you could trust them more.
I had an X.com checking account and I was living in the future! Then paypal bought them out, and suddenly I was a paypal user and had to open a checking account.
"No electronics" is the standard practice for any classified space. I'd be extremely concerned if unsecured phones were allowed in classified meetings, but I can't really say I'd be surprised
I'll always think of them as the company that built the Apple ][, as the company that invented SCSI and thought we would pronounce that as "sexy," and the company that pretended they invented the portable mp3 player a couple years after nerds owned their first ones.
Oh yeah, they also have a phone that looks just like a 90s Samsung digital picture frame.
It is kind of like that, except in your example there is one mistake that goes away when you apply the fix, and in the story, it is still really fuzzy and the remaining code might even still be mostly copied.
So it is like if you didn't have maps of the rivers, and didn't know which ones overlap, and so the data is complete crap, and then you find a fragmented map and now you know where some parts of a few of the rivers are. It is progress towards a good goal, but the data is still crap so far.
I don't mind it, I don't want our best and brightest to be stunt men. He's entertainment, and he's enjoying the ride, so whatever. It is as good a use for him as mowing lawns or whatnot.
Those curves are when operating under line frequency AC power, not when powered by a modern controller.
That is why variable controllers are used, instead of just using a fixed frequency inverter and changing the voltage to change speed. Speed is based on AC frequency! That's why if you have fixed frequency, then the torque is variable depending on speed.
And, have you ever seen how much land is already covered by truck stops?! They are so huge, the trucks park at the pumps and go in for a meal and a shower while they wait. It may turn out that they're already using up enough space to do the generation on-site and they won't even grow!
You're misunderstanding business taxation. Businesses get to deduct their expenses, and a lot of the equipment gets a tax writeoff. They're not doing that accounting to pay taxes on the equipment, they're doing that accounting to deduct from what is considered income for tax purposes.
Companies lease because they can deduct the full lease payment, it is a more convenient deduction in many situations than if they buy. In many cases when you buy you have to spread the deduction over the expected life of the equipment, as determined by a government list of equipment life spans. And you might only deduct part in the end, because it still has "value," even though you're ready to replace it! That is why they donate the used computers to a nonprofit for recycling. But they don't deduct that at 100%! And it isn't like they could sell the computers and actually get what they are theoretically "worth," because there would be too many used computers hitting the market at once. So if they lease they not only get the deduction sooner, they get a more complete deduction.
You derped on your shirt man, I'm engineering three phase motor controllers today. I'm on a fucking break from writing motor control software, and here you are being fucking clueless.
Naw, every location has locals, and yet, wind power is still a thing.
Whiners can whine all they want, but Tesla will secure property rights before building, be sure of that!
Also, you didn't understand the technical parts. Phrase your supposed problems as questions and I'll explain it to you, otherwise, naw, you're just wrong man. You don't comprehend what a buffer is, and it was the most important word! You don't seem to realize, they already don't charge from the grid! They are connected to the grid, but they're not drawing the current from there.
From his interviews, the timeline seems to be, he did the first launch just as a stunt man. That is why his design flies mostly horizontal; it is human-cannonball style.
Then he met one of the "research flat earth" people, who offered to pay to put the logo on the side for another launch. It was after he agreed to do it that he says he started thinking about their ideas.

Actually, if they don't track you and the software just runs on the phone then it doesn't create a bill for the developer at all!
This may be a bit circular.
When I download an app from fdroid, nobody gets a bill.
This is exactly it!
If it is asks for your phone ID and also network access, it is tracking you. It even told you and asked! LOL
With fdroid, if an app asks for permissions it doesn't need I can just download it and take them out of the code.
Never trust. Never.
It's gonna be yuuuuge, yuuuuuge! Best in the world.

What do you even think that means? Like, did you ever think about, "Do the words I dribble out of my mouth mean something? I wonder what I'm saying?"
I mean, even one time?

500 acres of PV is an annualized 131 GWh. Jigga-watts, baby, jiggawatts!
That's using total land area, not just the PV area.

Their line is written on the side of the rocket. And he will tow it across the sky, trolling for dollars.
But if he wants to toe up to the line, he better call for a tow.
