Excellent talk by Simon Sharpe @INETOxford just now, pointing out how the #climate crisis challenges economic #orthodoxy in several ways. Spoiler 🔥"Economics as a discipline has forgotten what the scientific method is" (@camjhep pointing to #heterodox ideas in defense)🧵
💡The premise: To meet our #climate goals, we need to reduce emissions globally by about 8% per year by 2030, as compared to the 1,5% p.a. achieved so far - hence the title of his book #FiveTimesFaster
1⃣ An #economy going through the rapid and far-reaching systems #transition this requires (acc. to @IPCC_CH) cannot be analysed in terms of #equilibrium, a sitation in which "nobody has any immediate reason to change their actions" according to the Oxford Dictionary of Economics. Image

Avatar: The Way of Water (Dec. 16)

Final mix and picture mastering are now done: 13 years later, Avatar 2 is finished.

This is an opportunity to get a better look at the vehicles, whose designers are almost the same as for the original.

Why we liked Amara Raja Batteries but never recommended it?

✅ India's 2nd largest mfg. of lead-acid batteries, mostly used in vehicles; but...

❌ No usage in electric 2w & 3w and rising env. concerns regarding lead batteries

More reasons in this thread ⤵️
✅ With $1Bn capex, expanding to Li-ion batteries that are preferred for EVs

❌ Li-ion batteries require much more techno-chemical expertise and new ways of mfg., unclear if Amara can imbibe

#ElectricVehicles #vehicles
❌ Li-ion batteries amount to > 50% of the cost of EVs, so auto cos. may produce it in-house (Tata, M&M, Ola already exploring)

With a range of 20-800m, NLAW can also #target the sides or top of enemy #tanks.

LASM is an unguided rocket, effective against lightly armoured vehicles or structures up to 200m.

#ChristmasIsComing 🎄

We love our #STEAM friends 😍 Discover the #Roobopoli initiative handled by @Perlatecnica and @_Bluenet_ 👏and aiming to create an educational experience in the field of #SmartCities

#STEAM #education #creativity #programming Image
Roobopoli is a tiny smart city, a miniature city, where the life of the inhabitants called Roobo, is assisted by modern #technologies, the same available in real cities, but reproduced in scale for educational, testing and simulation purposes 🏙️
As part of the Roobopoli project, one of the main activities consists in the construction and programming of #smart #vehicles called Roobokart, which will have to move independently on the roads of Roobopoli 🚘
