OTOH one gets Holly C, so it might be worth.

SSB can be a quite a lot denser compared to existing ones. Up to 2.5x if I recall correctly. Also less flammable. Edit: consider -> compared

My thought as well. Why didn't Peterson ask more about it, though.

And how are we doing with consuming less? Oh, wait, I know - consumption of oil and coal is at all time high.

Where as with a hover-cab, before you get to theoreticaly use zoro-emission fuel, you first have to make it

This sounds almost like tractors are born in a shed, not made in a factory.

digging up and smelting rare metals

Not so much and less with newer battery types

shipping parts all over the world and churning them out in coal-burning factories.

Again, see first comment. Out of curiosity, what are coal-burning factories anyway?

You’ll be dead before your tractor catches up the starting costs.

While tractors are relatively cheap, you fail to see all the disadvantages with them it seems. Like fuel grows in a fuel pump stations and I'm sure they are very beneficial to air you breath, not counting co2 emissions and many other negative aspects. Let's do a test. I'll lie down next to e-vehicle exhaust and you'll do the same next to a tractor exhaust or any other ICE vehicle of your choice. Let's do that for 5 minutes while engines are running.

While hydrogen is expensive to produce, it can be produced from reusable sources or surplus energy which makes it way cheaper and way cleaner. Also solves energy storage. A side note: ICE is around 20% efficient. I'm also sure that flying in choppers and private jets is not that clean and efficient. And yes, cars would be better, but both can coexist.

Please do explain how is less harmful to drive in a diesel tractor around.

Well, it's a demonstration of hydrogen utilization. And if it spares ice vehicle trips, it's just fine.

I'd even buy subscription if it was a family one without music bundled for a reasonable price. No such luck in my country.

[–] Mihies@programming.dev 2 points 4 months ago

Yeah, I even wonder why they need it at all.

[–] Mihies@programming.dev 7 points 4 months ago (1 children)

But aren't both the same speedwise?

[–] Mihies@programming.dev 1 points 4 months ago (11 children)

It's primarily about safety, not speed. Any C or C++ program should match the speed but not the correctness.
