have all those drones to buy (delivery drones, not the institutional investors)

and memory state persistence

>say they have found a way of building the technology so that it corrects those errors.

make it work first and then outside a lab before announcing it is actually a 'breakthrough'

A practicle solution scaled to something useful - even if its still in a huge tank of liquid helium

thts a minimum with no redundancy

youd want at least a 1000% redundancy

a look at all the supply chains and the specialists to maintain them might be a start

economy of scale comes into the modern sustaining the high tech and if you chop that out they are no longer viable

likewise with enough scale cuts basics start failing as well

there are some basic metrics about genetic diversity for a stable population

brain is hard to work

but simply wearing a rig every moment of your life that can record everything and offers playback seems the easiest solution

fusion perhaps gas giants or ocean worlds with hydrogen from water - of course the machinery mechanisms to obtain it in bulk quantities

better be able to refuel so if the earth-like planet is nonviable, then they can go on to a string of alternates

what is the destination ?

that will determine what your population should be besides the people to operate the ship

>While the results don’t reveal anything new about lithium-ion batteries, they demonstrate how more powerful quantum computers could be used to accurately simulate complex chemical reactions in the future.

So Ford didnt use ... to find ... ???????

More it being plans for future attempts at progress.

isnt the battery tech being able tp accept charge that fast the hard part ?

metal/ceramic filled eposies are stringer that the original pipe material - have been available for decdes

robots can be made now with sufficient communications and sensors and actuators to do patching work

Ductility is the ability of a material to sustain a large permanent deformation under a tensile load up to the point of fracture, or the relative ability of a material to be stretched plastically at room temperature without fracturing. Ductility can be measured by the amount of permanent deformation indicated by the stress-strain curve.

Many definitions of 'tough' are not this.

well I was always talking about the headline

a huge added cost trying to drive massive change in such a short time

forced instead of letting progress be done by what is workable in the market.

And finally the proposal being filled with weasel words to cover the impracticality and postential disaster of such a thing being attempted

"""US can reach 100% clean power by 2035, DOE finds, but tough reliability and land use questions lie ahead"""

This is the WHOLE SYSTEM

It includes all the 'dirty' stuff generated by EVERY ASPECT of this thing to makle it work.

It requires the whole system being reworked.

Funny is : I just noticed the word "can" in that above statement which technically means it does not limit the solution to reasonable cost or lack of imposed tyranny or all the other serious issues and concerns which will likely have to be made use of to achieve this 'goal'.

It sounds very much like a communist 'five year plan' when you consider how it is expressed. The scope of it is also is as potentially catastrophic as such plans historically were.

Notice that word 'but' there too - which already indicates that serious problems ALREADY lay in the path of any such 'solution'.

energy conversion is one of the significant problems of fusion

please quote me the prices of these cars

thats the first multiplier - you have to buy them before you can use them

and then have the assumed shortages of the materials used for a vastly increased number being built - something you might try to consider the impact of.

likewise the manufacture will need to be clean too, and recycling as well.

And please address the ever present issue of where the power comes from for these autos - explain how all that electricity will be generated without fossil fuels being involved.

As usual, the entire picture of the actual needed solution is avoided to make such claims.

HAL 9000 enters the room

set your heat to 68 in winter get rid of your airconditioning and car and dont go on trips

YOU can start right now.

imagine the charging station lack

thats if the battery material production can even be achieved for just 50%

I had not heard it was that high that recently

Dinosaur times the levels were like that and the whole earth was a green paradise

we have 500 years of coal in the ground at current energy use

Fusion might be a good project to get working.

Costs and secondary Costs

Imagine it costing 5X as much to operate a car or for all your power usage and increase in Prices on Everything (Everything has a power COST)

the lawyer part of the equation - lawsuits for the accidents which will happen and the insurance which will have to be carried may determine the workability of this
