Economic value isn't the sum of energy spent. If increasing efficiency can increase the value of a set amount of energy, it can also increase the value of a decreasing amount of energy.

I agree with this mostly, but I do wish my car had stainless steel instead of paint. Paint is the most fragile part of the car and it's dealing with that is a fact of life but it shouldn't need to be. With more advanced manufactur

Isn't this the kind of thing that is possible with less than 100% mortality? Like the northern cooler part survives and the reef moves that way?

Why not? It doesn't ultimately require increasing resources extraction. Increasing efficiency or technological capability could have the same outcome

Just talking energy density is a little misleading if internal combustion engines can't capture most of it

It's very arrogant to take your understanding of the benefit of the truth, finding it lacking, and then assuming that this is same negligible benefit the truth will have for everyone else.

What is your source here? I am from DC and it's pretty well known that it is a planned city. Look up the L'Enfant Plan. I'm not really sure what you are talking about.

What is sort of ironic is that they were already leading in that area too, they have one of the best labs in the world for that kind of research. But they didn't really do much public messaging around it.

20 wires for 112 options seems like a lot. Shouldn't there be some way to just logic it down to something like 7? Need to break out the karnaugh map.
