The home page has nothing on it. I didn't want to join a startup which had only a textbox. [from a friend who was offered a role when Google had 15 employees]

Dahn and his team solved this with a single crystal NMC 532 cathode. This has much higher levels of manganese (30%) and cobalt (20%), which makes it more efficient. Also, rather than being loads of crystals squashed together, they have been formed into one cohesive crystal, which means there are very few falts for degradation to take hold, which ma... See more

Using the proposed approach, nine different-by-design value capturing mechanisms were identified: value transfer*(1), work “staking” token(2), protocol consensus token(3), dividend(4), backing by another asset(s)(5), discount token(6), internal product governance(7), meta-governance(8)**, and hedonic value(9)

Complexity science, also called complex systems science, studies how a large collection of components – locally interacting with each other at small scales – can spontaneously self-organize to exhibit non-trivial global structures and behaviors at larger scales, often without external intervention, central authorities or leaders. The properties of ... See more

If you can have a net-zero economy, then there's no more need to conserve.

Few investors understand the enormous difficulty involved in switching from manufacturing ICE vehicles to EVs. Tesla has widely automated their vehicle manufacturing facilities, which has resulted in substantially higher operating profitability than its larger ICE vehicle competitors.

Tesla’s cell constraints are likely to continue over the medium term. Because its most profitable use of cells is likely to be in electric vehicles, we do not expect Tesla’s energy storage business to drive enterprise value meaningfully during the next five years.
