For all practical matters it is xterm that has become the standard.

Like with web browsers, it is irrelevant what the standard states. The only thing that matters is that it displays correctly with the most popular / authoritative browser.

Web pages are increasingly bulky. A 3 MB page will take 1 second to load at 25 Mbps, so latency is often not the primary bottleneck.

Part of the problem may be that companies who own network infrastructure, and get paid for data usage, are also the ones that are the largest content providers.

This also comes with an electricity cost. We regulate efficiency for refrigerators, it might be time to add some sane limits to the largest content providers, which will also improve connectivity for those stuck with 2 Mbps.

Even if it's a thing, the idea that a teacher should take on the role of psychologists and figure out a child's optimal learning style should be preposterous to anyone with common sense.

It might work in combination with a software suite, with e-readers getting cheaper and more capable, and easily lasting through a school day, it's an option.

I think you pointed out the problem.

I suspect it has the same problem as ncurses: Not easy to learn, get proficient with, or rapidly produce something decent with.

I've been working on a project for a while that allows running any console program within it, and use text, keyboard, or mouse triggers to add a VT100 TUI, but it's uncomfortable to learn, very hard to get proficient with, and while it's possible to rapidly produce something decent, you're going to hit a hard wall producing something excellent.

Seems like speculation on top of speculation on top of speculation.

I wonder what the archeological data looks like, 6 burned down houses and a very active imagination?

Isn't the problem the absence of random DNA?

I wouldn't call random data 'complex', but it is easy to sequence when assembling short reads.

My main take away from the article was that we, apparently, need a time traveler to confirm/disprove Einstein's theory.

There's likely a market for office workers since there's a significant reduction of stress on the eyes.

You'd save about 0.5 kwh a day in electricity, more if the AC is running. So I could see them becoming popular once the price comes down. People who run 2 monitors might be interested as well.

MUDs are easily hosted abroad. Problem solved.

This reminds me of UK's 90% tax rate, which caused many multi-millionaires to leave the country.

I get the current time in microseconds, and increment by one nanosecond for each call between updates.

Problem solved for the next 200 years.

> the coulombic efficiency of SSAB-PDBM was 84% at 4 C rate, which gradually decreased to 66% at 101 C rate.

Lithium batteries are over 95% efficient, so a long way indeed. Since the battery contains water, I assume it doesn't work below 0 C.
