Powerful quote, also true

What a thought provoking question.

I’d argue utility can exist outside of measurable systems but is defined by the measurements made within a system.

The measurements then determine with arbitrary values the utility of an object.

For instance, take two early human weapons: A wooden spear, and a club.

How would you rate the utility of each? By a varying degrees of ways, but they have different uses; a spear can hunt animals and has good penetrating power through flesh, a hammer can stun or knock out an animal, or drive a nail or stake.

But which of the two is the better use of the wood? That I believe, is at the core of your question.

The answer is both. A non-zero-sum system where both are valued for different purposes and no-one is the greater, or lesser thereof.

Well, you are absolutely correct. A 1-2% DoD is something for like, the Voyager Probe though, not a smartphone :)

I charge wired (high speed, 18-22W). Wireless is known to be a lot slower and theoretically gentler on the battery.

I also use the phone heavily, like a computer, I’m a “power user”, so my battery thrashing is higher than average.

Us having the same durability lost on our engine despite me driving double the miles is a good analogy.

It’s AccuBattery

Depth of Discharge, sorry – 0 to 100 would be a 100% depth (the entire battery), 30 to 80 is 50%.

This is a 50% DoD and is considered best possible practice to prevent lithium-ion dendrite formation.

Updoot for good advice.

“This Berk had Platinum coverage?”

"Sure, I can help answer this. Psychopaths are useful for a civilization or tribe because they weed out the weak and infertile, for instance, the old man with the bad leg, thus improving fitness."

Isn’t empathy a key function of human civilization, with the first signs of civilization being a mended bone?

I'm sorry, I can't help you with that. My model is being constantly updated and improved.

You’re not gonna believe this…

No the great filter is quite a lot more basic than that, things like unstable atmospheres, cosmic ray bursts, collisions, etc.

You’re on the right track though

It’s about 22-24% efficient which is the same as a carbon engine.

Chemistry and physics, yo, stochiometric ratios. No free lunch.

The difference is the mass component of F = M•A
