1, you charge your car for cheap overnight on cheap overnight baseload electricity. When there is peak demand from 6-8pm you stop charging or sell power back to them. You get reduced price electricity and get paid for any sent back.

2, except for totally discharging, the most damage is to do with charging rate and temperature. Slowly charging and discharging at home with the rate set by the battery computer is the best thing for you battery - compared to driving.

There is definitely a price I would agree to this for - and I only pay $0.10/kwh

That is a major concern.

The EUV magic to get 3-5nm is highly involved with the chip design. It isn't like just taking 20-40nm parts and getting a 50-100x density for free.

It might not ever be cost effective to make cheap older parts on these systems even if the fab cost was already paid

According to wiki the police code is a myth - I assumed it was a date that some law/police action happened, but apparently not.

Yes but the point of this is that you can still edit Trotsky out of the party photo or add in the missing safety cable.

But presumably all the images used to train the AI had copyright, so shouldn't the the copyright in the AI's derivative work belong to them ?

Otherwise I could "train" an AI on a single work, end up with a training matrix just consisting of "1" and then "generate" as many of the new AI-derived, non-copyrighted not-at-all-a-copy of the work as I want

I think that in the case of the em drive 'Russell's Teapot' applies.

You invented a machine that does magic, in all the tests it didn't do magic. Claiming that I didn't definitively prove there is no magic is a bit of a stretch.

Re: Here's an idea -
