"As devices improve, is it just expected that they'll create more heat?"
You can see, even superficially, how that makes no sense. Electronics have over time shrunk and become more energy efficient, by definition that means they produce less heat overall.
You might have some interesting circumstantial evidence to the contrary but no, devices are not becoming "hotter".
You get downvoted because HN is full of idiots who hate Bitcoin because they don't understand it.
You are wrong because Bitcoin (BTC) is as you say, a decentralized ponzi scheme but the open source project that DOES follow the project outlined in the Bitcoin White Paper, Bitcoin Cash (BCH) solves the problem created by government issued "fiat" currency. Bitcoin Cash is a global, instant and nearly free payment network that replaces cash and credit cards for most use cases.
Rich people knew. Rich people have always known how important air quality is, its why we have large yards in suburban areas, electric cars, go to summer homes and vacation far from major cities. The poor die disproportionately of preventable lung disease, that is by design.
The whole thing is nonsense. Years before Snowden there was plenty of evidence that some gov agency was scooping up ALL At&T's data (for example). Just like now, idiots will ignore the obvious until they can't.
Right now you idiots are ignoring ALL the obvious signs of the Dollar collapsing (it already has). Then when your money is worthless you all will be asking, how did we not see it coming?
This woman was getting alimony. This country is so broken. She was not poor or homeless unless she wanted to call herself that. Woman in the US are a privileged class and they often use that privilege to gain more power and sympathy. This story is a joke, this country is fucked.
A lot of people don't seem to get the new revenue model of producing content for the web. These lists are written because they generate revenue from Amazon. Books are there that make the most money.
ANYTIME you see ANY list of products online at least some of the objects on that list are there to generate income. There are tons of services to find the best revenue generating product in a category.
Peter Gustafson wants to save the world.
In the year 2984, Peter is an average kid with a secret; he’s a well-behaved tenth-grader by day but cryptographic entrepreneur and hacker by night. When the electricity mysteriously goes out in his hometown, Peter takes it upon himself to investigate. The adventure leads the young hacker to a large transmitting station and into a battle of wits with the greatest AI ever created. The machine requires a human to help "throw the switch" and give it full control so engineered the power outage as a test to lure its latest recruit, Peter Gustafson.
