Vertical farms are another of those solarpunk technologies that have the potential to radically change the world for the better. but only viable with power too cheap to meter.

They should feel ashamed to make any such analogy at all
What is it, exactly, about the recent “ICE-style” that they want to emulate? Must be stopped at all costs

Good discussion between @mikell.bsky.social (worked with her in the early days of Rethink Robotics) and @bheater.bsky.social
of A3, about the reality of building and deploying robots. Mikell has been at many robotic startups and more recently Amazon Robotics, and GM. www.youtube.com/watch?v=KNLe...

My first thought is that it’s quite a chunk of change
I have a 2 year PDRA position available in my group focusing on synthetic organic chemistry for supramolecular materials. Please apply using the link below if you’d be a good fit for the role in Glasgow @uofgchem.bsky.social

Visual SLAM is now real. Paul Mandel at Robust.AI (where I am CTO) says: We just moved into a new office and it took our team under an hour from uncrating Carter to driving around autonomously, including bringup, mapping the entire (large!) new space and annotating locations of interest. Incredible!
