nice nonbinary rights

...you are taking about the Texas north of Mexico right? Not some other Texas that isn't openly hostile to anyone not cis heterosexual?

The Dark Knight - great IMAX-shot visuals, amazing atmosphere and music, action right out of the gate. Sets the tone that the Joker is one crazy mf'er while being basically an entire heist movie in a few short minutes.

Star Trek: Into Darkness - The first 10 minutes is my favorite demo sequence of all time. COLORS are really vivid and make the alien world look actually, well, alien. Good audio effects with spears whooshing by and water falling off the ship. Really nice cinematic shots of the Enterprise and the volcano. Ignore what the characters are saying (because it's all dumb) and stop watching the movie after the alarm clock goes off, but everything else is about the best thing you can watch on a really nice home theater setup.

I'm not sure that "number of eyeballs" is the metric by which a successful scientific discovery should be judged...

¿Por qué no los dos?

At my company, we have a saying: "That which is temporary shall outlive us all."

Yes, great, hooray, let's make batteries bigger and charge faster. No doubt.

But until my local Electrify America station can even keep a handful of chargers running at their rated power values more than 0% of the time, I don't see the infrastructure to be able to charge in anything approaching 10 minutes.

The car battery tech is already really good, especially the past few years. I love my EV, and charging it at home is amazing. But the public infrastructure can't keep up with the battery charge rates we have now, much less the monster chargers that will be necessary to put 700+ miles worth of electrons in my fancy new solid state battery in 10 minutes.

So while I applaud advances in battery tech, I have to wonder when we are going to get serious about the infrastructure to support them.
