    China to Ban Sale of Fossil Fuel Cars in Electric Vehicle Push

    If the Bi-Ion people actually have a scalable practical technology with all of the attributes they claim, it could (potentially) dominate. 600Wh/l, with less than $.1/l to manufacture, is pretty impressive. But as long as it is "its a really cool technology and we will tell you absolutely...

    China to Ban Sale of Fossil Fuel Cars in Electric Vehicle Push

    There are multiple fuel technologies now in an absolute sense, but in terms of ones we use for common consumer automobiles it really comes down to diesel, gasoline, and (obviously a tiny tiny tiny tiny fraction) batteries. Natural gas is interesting as a different option but if the goal is to...

    China to Ban Sale of Fossil Fuel Cars in Electric Vehicle Push

    Fuel cell technology as a fuel source for standard consumer vehicles will hopefully die because it is a terrible idea, honestly, going forward. For large trucks there are separate arguments to be made regarding refueling speed and range, but....there are ~50 h2 fueling stations in california and...

    White Nationalist mass protest turns to riot at University of Virginia

    The false equivalency here is ridiculous. The reason to remove statues of Lee (or other confederate leaders) is the same as the reason that there aren't a whole lot of statues of hitler in germany: he was an evil man with evil intentions who was responsible for great suffering, and is not...

    John McCain diagnosed with aggressive brain cancer

    My understanding (which might be wrong, but ....) is that this bill was designed to allow the house and senate to, if it had been passed, work to pass a (potentially completely new) bill under budget reconciliation which only needs a 51-50 vote in the senate, but that the budget reconciliation...

    Oh Newt you silly Newt

    Haha, winner winner chicken dinner. Obstruction of justice is illegal except when it isn't! So I guess the conclusion is that if a Republican president manages to fire every single law enforcement individual who might try to investigate him for any crime, such that such investigations do no...

    Oh Newt you silly Newt

    A reasonable person would read Trump's statement to indicate that Trump was saying he fired comey because he didn't like the investigation that was occurring under Comey, and that therefore, he fired him in order to slow or stop that investigation. The other statements he made support that...

    Oh Newt you silly Newt

    Yeah that totally sounds like someone who isn't firing a guy in order to obstruct an investigation. Speaking of which, I hear that might be a crime.... edit: dammit, the quote by trump from the post above me is better! foiled again. :(

    Kushner wanted to setup secret communications channel with Russia

    I never thought he would be found guilty of breaking a law w.r.t. colluding with the russians, but isn't saying 'yeah i fired that guy to stop him from investigating me' pretty explicitly against the law regardless of whether or not he had broken a law previously to result in an investigation...

    Should Trump Win...

    You've got a lot of Trump supporters getting nonsense propaganda and bullsh1t from macedonia. Yes, really, macedonia. A bunch of kids in macedonia realized that if they could get a bunch of clicks from trumpets, they could make a decent amount of money, and so they created a bunch of websites...

    Turning CO2 into Ethanol

    This is a cool result, but the difficulties that remain are essentially that 1) you need decently well concentrated CO2 for this to be efficient at all (ie CO2 out of a tank bubbled through solution); you cant just set the electrodes outside in water and the CO2 in the atmosphere will magically...

    Can I negotiate down this healthcare bill?

    Mods, please move if there might be somewhere better for this.... Story: I went to physical therapy for leg problems. They looked into my insurance deductible, coverage, details etc and told me that one full regimen of appointments would cost be exactly $500 out of pocket, and insurance would...

    Trump campaign chief is registered to vote in Florida at unoccupied home

    Aye, this is a good way to do it. Or even easier, instead of a proper drivers license or similar (I'm not sure what the various requirements are in different states) just have anyone without ID have a picture taken that can be checked later, plus a fingerprint or similar. Probably wouldn't...

    Trump Responds To Slain Soldier's Father, Who Appeals To GOP Leaders

    I used to think of people with a michal1980-type outlook on the world --incoherent rage and no intelligence whatsoever-- as just a fringe group with no political power. And now they have a presidential candidate. God help us. (to be clear: the person behind michal1980 is probably a cool dude...

    DNC chair Schultz dropped from convention amid email debacle over Bernie Sanders

    I think this is the best way to look at it. I look at the vote totals......sure, the DNC favored hillary, no doubt about that, but it isn't like sanders lost by a tiny, narrow margin. He lost by over 3.5 million votes in an election in which about 28 million were cast. That is a solid...

    Trump camp offered to make Kasich 'most powerful VP in history'

    Trump would only want to be president in a king sense, not a hand of the king sense. 'The King eats, and the hand takes the shit.' Looks like we know what Pence will be doing for four years on the off chance trump wins.

    Judges Overturn Racially Motivated Voter Suppression Laws in WI, TX, & MI

    For a few reasons: first, that you are devising a solution to a problem which, in a practical sense, does not exist; and furthermore, because I understand how this would work. Wealthier individuals will have no problem getting them (well, they likely already have it), while poorer individuals...

    Judges Overturn Racially Motivated Voter Suppression Laws in WI, TX, & MI

    Yes, because the 24th amendment says You will find that the right to vote is enshrined in this amendment. The right to bear arms and the right to travel, while also certainly important rights unto themselves, are not part of this amendment, and the government is not legally required to make...

    San Ofre Reactor

    You might mean pebble bed reactors, although there are other generation IV plants that claim to be passively safe, I think. I would be very much in favor of replacing all the older plants (ie gen 2) with newer ones, but nobody wants to pay for something like that.

    All Turkish Academics Banned From Traveling Abroad

    Don't be ridiculous, Erdogan isn't trying to turn Turkey into Iran. You see, Iran places certain limits on the amount of power the executive has...... But to be serious, if I was of the moneyed and intellectual variety in Turkey, I would be trying to look for ways out ASAP. The 'coup' looks...

    how come we cant go to the moon with all our newfangled tech?

    Right but generally you have a choice between a liquid fuel that has a lot of thrust but has limitations as noted previously, or a much more efficient form of thrust such as an ion engine or (still under development) solar sails or emdrive or such. Liquid fuels (and I'm gonna group nuclear...

    how come we cant go to the moon with all our newfangled tech?

    Probably because contractors want pork. But it is at least a little more complicated ;) The original saturn V was also subcontracted out to a million different people, a lot of whom worked on the project, and many of whom are dead, so simply rebuilding more is apparently rather more...

    how come we cant go to the moon with all our newfangled tech?

    Due to what they call the "tyranny of the rocket equation" putting bigger and bigger things into space gets really crazily incredibly difficult. http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/station/expeditions/expedition30/tryanny.html And the saturn V was indeed an incredible machine. The other thing...

    Renewable Power

    As a medium, it is the most scalable, yes. Of course, you have to get that energy back out ;) I'm personally hoping the research in Al based batteries comes to fruition -- if they get those to compete with lithium ion in terms of energy density it will probably be the best news ever published...

    Renewable Power

    Trump on foreign policy

    The Obama Doctrine from the President's mouth himself

    Its a really good read.
