I've been trying zen browser as an alternative but many features are missing.

It's a pity they decided to kill what made them successful.

No one cares about Dia browser, Arc was really about delivering useful stuff.

This would up the game for wind energy. Less land footprint per KW, better capacity factor.

Would airborne wind be cheaper than photovoltaics?

It probably depends on geography (latitude and weather patterns)

There is an element I haven't seen in this conversation: as the number of combustion engine cars goes down the number of gas stations also goes down. At some point, combustion engine drivers will start feeling range anxiety. So when you get rid of your fossil-fuel-burner vehicle, you are pushing others to do so.

The full calculus of CO2 emissions reduction should also include the reduction induced in others.

Google had a paper last year explaining that: https://blog.google/innovation-and-ai/technology/research/us...

We do not have any useful algorithm to run on a quantum computer.

The problem is not that we do not have yet quantum computers powerful enough, but that even if we had such computers we would not have anything useful to run on them.
