Yeah, I’m not 100.00% sure it will succeed either but there’s only one way to find out 🙂

Word.

That’s definitely a use case that’s being investigated.

Rain fade is a thing but it's power and frequency dependent. Wireless power transfer isn't aiming to replace current transmission methods, it's looking to open up new use cases as electricity generation costs plummet via PV solar and improved battery technologies.

If that was the case weather radar and microwave radio links wouldn't work in the rain. Plot twist: they do :)

Here’s the impact the PC, productivity software and hitting 100,000 UFB connections had on NZ’s GDP per capita…

New Tractor With 12-Valve Cummins and Zero Electronics Goes Back to the Basics Ursa Ag, out of Canada, is building farm equipment that's both affordable and serviceable by independent shops.

Ursa Ag is building tractors without the parts that are cheap to manufacture yet mysteriously expensive to replace or repair (ie electronics)…

A couple points on this manifesto, apart from the racial superiority subtext others noted.

Palantir is a company built on public contracts, they bill the state billions to surveil and target the state's population. The manifesto exists to justify their demand for even more.

They’re planning antenna arrays larger than that.

My understanding is that the lasers are used to detect incursion into the microwave beam rather than actually transmitting energy.

It’s not inductive, it uses an array of microwave transmitters.

Funny story…
I am a very minor investor in Emrod (which started in NZ btw). My background is in tech, I have an amateur radio licence, understand the inverse square law and was 100% sceptical of their claims until their CEO gave me a demo in a Faraday cage a few years ago.

A good friend of mine works at NASA, and has spent the last TEN years of his life working on the Orion CPAS (Capsule Parachute Assembly System), testing it in the deserts of Arizona.

Ten years of design & testing. For this moment.

Science is so good, y'all.

You’re supposed to hang it on the wall with that really big hook.

Ask to pay the bill off over the same period as it was accrued.

🤣

While I was at Microsoft I had an email conversation with a product manager in Redmond about why using seasons in announcements (‘fall release’) was a bad idea. Turned out more than a few people had no idea that they varied between the two hemispheres 🙄

The cost of PV solar has dropped by something like 90% over the last 15 years or so and battery storage has been on a similar trajectory. Seeing just a tiny little bit into the future doesn’t seem to be a superpower among our policy makers.

Also pointy white hats 🙂

Hell yes to all of the above and imagine the jobs it would create after the past few years of the Nat’s destroying them left, right and centre.

Interesting article. From where I sit Labour seem to be meandering their way to losing the election rather than National winning it. My previous offers to do an equally average job of Labour’s comms for half the price still stands 🙂

Good analogy and let’s not forget that many of the benefits or the scale thereof didn’t become fully apparent until long after the project kicked off and adoption started to climb. The same would undoubtedly be true for a large scale electrification initiative.

National has been running a well-oiled social media campaign since late last year if my Facebook feed is anything to go by. Labour need to lift their comms game big time if they want to avoid losing in November. Their messaging is unclear and their reach insufficient imho.

Occam’s Razor…

I don’t have a roof rack. Is it ok to remove somebody else’s ?

The far side lunar surface with a distinct dar patch in its centre surrounded by rings. This is the impact crater.

Can you imagine the cataclysmic impact that formed the Orientale Crater on the lunar far side?

look how big it is.

It punched a hole in the lunar surface, lava welled upwards (dark patch) and it made concentric rings of mountains.

Ooooft.
