I would hope so. You seem to be under the mistaken impression I think the above is likely. It is possible is my point.

Most of my code is ai generated - but I have to carefully review everything because it ofte makes poor decisions.

Reentry survival is a materials question. If someone decides heat resistant ceramic is cheaper all is well until that cames down and we discover it doesn’t vaporize like iron (or whatever they make it with)

Kill is the common turn for any dquipment that no longer functions. Short for misson kill.

Any small boat can carry one and toss it over the side. A mine laying boat is easier, but you and one friend with a common fishing boat could do it.

The only worry about low earth orbit is something survives reentry enough to become a bomb. these are enough to destroy a house if that happens - my undertanding is this can’t happen but if they did

I did the monthly arch upgrade and had to reboot to get some service to come up. Took an extra 5 minutes this month.

It might be but it is risky - if anything goes wrong there goes that data.

Some exists. However there appears to be less than total demand. Somebody won’t get some in that situation and if everyone has a contract to get it someone’s contract will not be fulfilled. (most contracts also contain fine print about this situation)

Even if you have a futures contract, that contract is worthless if the goods don’t exist. They can protect against the price going up, but if availability at any price is in question they are meaningless.

Also, if you have a contract it might still be in your best interest to sell the contract and not take the fuel at all.

The problem is people don’t want a focused community. They want a broad community so when they have a question they can ask and find an expert - but not so broad that the noise means they can’t follow anything. We do focused communities because the world (or even internet) has too many people and so the noise of all the discussions is too much. However that isn’t what we want.

1% of females as well, but few know that even though there must be a lot out there.

I was in college when my mom brought the books home one weekend. As she suspected my sister was also colorblind. Mom gets three wrong and you need more than three to be colorblind - but latter she was working in a clothing store and a customer ask for a discount for some stain she couldn’t see but the manager saw it from 10 feet away and gave the discount.

I can tell the difference between the red and green light - but if a left turn turn light comes on while the red remains (that is only left turns no going straight) I’ll probably miss it because the green is so faint and red obvious

I bought a used EV, and the loan is massive and more than I can afford (but I didn’t have a choice - my area is car dependent and I go many places too far for my bike)

Where I live the larger problem is heating the battery in winter. Cooling needs to be done as well, but batteries don’t like the cold temperatures we get in winter.

So far car batteries are mostly lasting except for the Leaf which has a known bad design. Everyone else has put in proper thermo management, and so while batteries have degraded a bit over time, the cars are generally considered perfectly usable. I’m sure there are exceptions, but in general there isn’t demand for battery related repairs in EVs. Only time will tell of course.

I suspect he is wrong - the average car is 12 year old, which means there are a lot of cars older than 24 years old still on the road. Of course cars do wear out and get scrapped, but just looking at broad statistics we should expect most EVs made since 2002 (after the EV1) are still on the road (this is broad statistics which doesn’t consider fuel source at all - even though it is an important consideration I don’t have data!) Which is to say there is no reason to think there are large numbers of batteries ready to be recycled. The first EVs are only now entering the phase where they are going to start getting scrapped - and there were not a lot of any of them made.

There likely is a good business to be made recycling used car batteries. However if you want to get into it now is not the time to expand/scale , now is still time to be designing and testing the machines and processes you will be using when you scale. Anyone in this business should expect to still be losing many - your business plan should have real data showing real data of when you expect cars to be scrapped in numbers large enough to be wroth scaling.

And then had the wisdom to die before a computer capable of running her programs was invented, thus saving the bother of having to debug them.
