Prototype sodium-air fuel cell could power electric planes and trains
Batteries are nearing their limits in terms of how much power they can store for a given weight. That's a serious obstacle for energy innovation and the search for new ways to power airplanes, trains,...

"Inlyte says its first energy storage systems will be installed at Southern Company’s Energy Storage Test Site in Wilsonville, Alabama, early 2026. 'This' will allow the utility to study how the iron‑sodium batteries perform under real grid conditions." electrek.co/2025/12/11/i... #batteries #energy
Iron-sodium grid batteries just took a big step toward US rollout
Inlyte Energy's iron-sodium battery storage system just passed a key factory test with a large US utility in attendance.

What if ageing is not an accumulation of molecular damage to the hardware, but a process driven by our developmental software program?

I wish I had all the answers. The truth is we all hold pieces of the puzzle in our hands. Do what you can, where you are, with what you have. Life can be painful, but try not to pass the pain along. Lets lift each other up. We can make the world a little better - one person at a time. #goodvibes

My response was that you need to find women willing to wear targets on their backs. Good luck with that.

My daughter has been trying to reach her dad (my ex) for three days now. He 'got a new family' a few years back. So we're pretty confident he isn't dead in a ditch somewhere. She said, "You know how dad is. Out of sight out of mind." Don't be that guy. Be there for your kids no matter what. 💔
