      From: treon3verdery@gmail.com              Making electrical distribution networks more affordable benefits electric cars.              Screen a library of billions or trillions of metal alloys to find those as       conductive or more conductive than aluminum, a 9600 DPI inkjet printer can       print 2.19 million different metal oxides or chlorides onto a 300 mm IC wafer,       the wafer is then warmed,        or lasered, to reduce the oxides or chlorides to metal alloys that are       contacting conductors on the IC wafer, a 4 GHz computer can measure the       resistances of all the alloys in less than 1 second, 4560 wafers screens one       billion alloys, if a 19,200 DPI        inkjet printer is possible then each wafer screens 4.3 million alloys, it is       possible that rather than an inkjet printer 100 passes with a gradient spray       nozzle that deposits 1 million discernable amounts at a 30cm (300mm) area (or       a sprayer that sprays        100k discernable amounts at a 3 cm area, with the fluid used on each       sequential separate 3 cm area having 1/10 to full strength dilution) is 100       billion different alloy compositions per wafer,              Repeat the process making alloys that branch at their composition from the       highest conductivity alloys at the first wafer              Aluminum alloys could also be screened with 1/10 to 90% of some other element       more affordable than aluminum, manganese, silicon, sodium, potassium, iron are       possibilities              1/10-90% iron alloys as conductive as aluminum would make building and       maintaining electric networks, including long distance power lines and       dwelling wiring much more affordable              Greater electrical network affordability brings greater electrification to the       developing world and provides infrastructure so they can use electric cars                            A person who knows could explore the financing of electric cars, Electric cars       could benefit from their being the option of applying the recycle value of the       batteries to the financing up front, reducing monthly payments, note though       that if the bank        gets the battery value, then at battery replacement experiences the battery's       full $ amount is without utilizing the previous battery's value is utilized,       at some spans of having a car this might make sense, at others not so much, if       you like lower up        front expense, or also lower monthly expenses, and do not mind lower (old       battery) car value when vending it to another person then this gets more       people acquiring electric cars more rapidly, if you think you will keep your       electric car a long time then        you can be an optimist that the new battery, years later, will have greater       power density and affordability and omitting giving the bank the battery could       make sense, you could also get a more affordable battery (China) as well                            If 30-60% of an electric cars manufacturing $ is not at the battery, then cars       that look really nice and have lots of room and features could be based around       what I perceive is the similar affordability of different carapaces and       interiors, the roominess        $ is perhaps near 10% variance between cars. Possibly car places, or regional       assembly locations, or garages could put any of a variety of standardized       carapaces and interiors on an optimized electric car base, the wheel motors at       the base are specified        to produce up to 1/10 more torque than necessary at a typical car so a bigger       carapace mass still permits acceleration and handling like other the cars                            Longevity technology              I saw a thing where they thought they found the part of the rapamycin molecule       that caused the longevizing mTOR effect, finding the fewest atom mTOR       decreaser, then halogenating that and screening a library of variants at yeast       to find the highest        increase in longevity benefits from reducing the combinatorial space at the       fewer atom mTOR drug                            Fluorinated proteins, do they work, I read that fluorinated peptides are 1.5       times as active, would making fluorinated proteins also work, screening a       library is one approach, as are chemical protein sequencers with an extra 23       containers of fluorinated        amino acids that can swap a fluorinated amino acid with a regular amino acid       at anything they build, 100 fluoroamino acids, or silicoamino acids would give       the engineer four different fluorination locations to utilize, this could make       protein drugs 1.5-a        greater amount more effective, software could suggest where to put a       teflonized amino acid compared with a high electronegativity fluorine amino       acid to make a protein act like it does only moreso                            Things that fill children with happiness              Travelling in a driverless car could be fun, besides the computer, tablet, and       other people in the car the driverless car could take scenic routes especially       appealing to children, and suggest stopoffs at parks, museums, and places of       amusement, also,        educational software could be available, from 30 minutes to one hour of car       usage per day this makes, of 16 hours spent awake per day, things 3-6% more       fun each day, or from 3 to 16, 2372 to 4744 hours more fun                            I think cars with fold flat front seats that let's people have sex on them are       beneficial                                           Although it uses electricity has anyone made wobble and out of specification       magnetic damper that brings behavior back to specification, like a pool noodle       or torus you put on an axle that causes less vibration, this could cause       greater lifespan and        reduced maintenace and at durable machinery like excavators, elevators,       trucks, agricultural machinery, HVAC fans (quieter), and even piston rods,       electric generators, fair amusement rides, mining equipment, petroleum sector       equipment like pumps, robots,        manufacturing robots and machines, human companion robots, pumps, at if just       possibly 2 times to an order or magnitude less eccentric wear, quieter       operation, and greater intervals between maintenance is beneficial then a       hundredth of of the system        energy used at magnetic damping of vibration could be of value. Software that       automatically generates magnetic damper forms, 3D printed forms or parts, or       also pick and place robots could make magnetic dampers based on auto       generating of damper shape,        field, vibration measurements or models, and energy utilization        pecifications, the software could recommend 3D printed dampers and their field       receptor affixables (like damping an axle the field receptor affixable might       be a split side length of pool        noodle). Some ferromagnetic objects being magnetically damped could omit the       affixables), magnetic dampers and affixibles could be new engineering,                     [continued in next message]              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
