Adding to what the others wrote, solar cells become less efficient at power conversion (light -> electricity) as the temp of the solar cell materials (semiconductors) increases. So the issues is how to get more photons to the semiconductor without heating it up.

Is there any sort of regularly scheduled review to try and catch construction projects that may now be in floodplains that weren’t designated as such when constructed?

Adding to what Eldest_Malk said: They aren’t just putting a new type of lens over standard solar cells, they are also designing/fabricating custom cells to work with the lenses. [I’m not a PV expert, but the fact that the IEEE paper focuses so much on the cells and not just the lenses leads me to believe that the lenses can’t just be used with whatever standardized solar cells are on the market]

I just skimmed the IEEE paper (peer-reviewed, solid journal); The usage of ‘slash costs’ in the title is entire sensational. The tech gave a SLIGHT increase in efficiency (which is good news - marginal improvements are still very good and can be game-changing if scaled up), but there is no cost/benefit analysis in the paper regarding the additional costs of lenses and whether the increased PV efficiency would offset those costs at scale.

I am ready to be hurt again

Even with identification, ice is illegally kidnapping legal residents and legal asylum seekers and deporting them to countries they’ve never even been to

this comment is preposterous.

Bad headline, should remove the " 's Grok ’ part.

Just checked the site and it just looks like a big list of people I would trust

Why?

Yes, they hold the user data (supposedly its all generic, non-personally identifiable, and they dont build user profiles) and then have advertisers pay them to push targeted ads based on that data. This is how the tech companies make boatloads of cash - force advertisers to pay for a subscription to use the user data for targeted ads.

Good riddance. Fuck her and fuck X and fuck elon

no he’s not

And what share of the profit should go right in executives pockets? How many employees should be laid off to increase this profit? Is 6 million $/yr enough for a CEO to feed their fucking family?

Thank you! First time actually posting something.
