So average power of ~83 MW.

Most records are set by thumbnail sized cells. These are full sized cells.

That is 2.5 GW peak, average will be a lot lower.

Reply to comment by Magnetic_Syncopation in If freezing tissue generally damages the cells, how are we able to freeze human eggs and embryos for birthing later? by badblackguy
Methanol is a problem because it gets converted to formic acid in the liver. However the embryos we can safely freeze are still in the clump of cells stage and don't have anything like a liver, circulation system or neuronal tissue that can be damaged.

I bet they will argue that the market is mobile phones and that there is Apple as alternative.
Just like that ISPs are not monopolies apparently even if they divided the markets into regions.

It's selling capabilities that don't exist really selling a product that exist?

The first diesel engines were build in the 1890s so that is out. Also they were great cast iron motors, probably heavier then the car, with quite low power.
I think his best bet would have been to patch up the tank and use ethanol as fuel.

Ok. Scenario: you sell lots of cars. From say 2000 to 2010 you have an airbag in the cars that in 2012 is shown to have a problem. So you do a recall in 2012. As you just recalled 10 years of production you obviously recalled more cars then you sold in 2012.
That is a problem that a company that basically didn't sell cars before the reference time frame can't have.

There isn't one cancer, each of them is their own thing, made up of your own cells that mutated. So antibodies from somebody else will not work.
There are some viruses that can cause cancers and we are developing vaccines against them.

I would assume that on second exposure there would always be a significant amount of your own antibodies to fight the venom.

They compare total vehicles for that brand sold and recalled in the time frame.
There are a lot of Toyota on the road recalls happen not only for new cars. I think a lot of the recalled Toyota were some before the time frame and that is increasing the numbers.
On the other hand there were basically no Tesla before 2011.

That is already not the case in semi-modern cars. However the complexity of software with Tesla and their insistence to have everything running on the main computer is something I don't like.

The energy in bike crashes usually isn't enough to break the batteries unless a car or truck then crushes them.

They are dining all those control inputs so the plane keeps flying straight. If you were to watch the control surfaces instead of the plane you could see them move a lot. Also b because of the low airspeed larger adjustments are needed for a desired effect, there is a lot less air being deflected, so the deflection has to be larger.

Reply to comment by mustangwallflower in If I have two identical rare earth magnets and put them together, is the power of the combined magnets doubled? What about 3 or 4 magnets (tripled? quadrupled?)? by asdfredditusername
They would basically have the same strength. In reality rare earth magnets have a protective layer on the outside to prevent oxidation so I would expect the stack of thick magnets to be slightly stronger.

Exactly, it can detect the pulse, so it can detect arrhythmia and every thing that can detect the pulse should be able to do that. For more interesting results, like actual ECG readings they just don't have the sensors.

Yes, it's laser powered inertial confinement, they are a long long way from a conventionally defined Q>1.
