Boy, how the market for Hydrogen and Hydrogen Fuel Cells has changed in the past couple of years! From my Seeking Delphi podcast.
“So I submit to my colleagues here today that hydrogen is not as far away as we think it is.”–Bob Inglis.
In February of 2017, Seeking Delphi™ featured Infinity Fuel Cell and Hydrogen, Inc.™ founder and CEO Bill Smith, in an episode entitled What Ever Happend to Fuel Cells.
Not much was happening in early 2017. The market for hydrogen fuel cells, and hydrogen in any form for that matter, had been stagnant for for over a decade.
The company aims to turn readily available LNG into hydrogen fuel that will meet IMO 2050 emissions targets.
Masterpiece Studio (formerly MasterpieceVR) today announced it’s releasing a free edition of its latest professional VR creator suite, Masterpiece Studio Pro. The free software license is targeting individuals looking to use the suite for non-commercial use.

Epicurus and epicurean philosophy may not be as popular as stoicism in today’s world, however, different philosophies might work for different people. The insights of epicurean ethics including God, death, pleasure, friends, love, and more can influence the way you might act. Although it may not be as popular today, it has still influenced many others throughout history such as Spinoza.
In this video, I explain the ‘four part cure for life’ as shown from The Epicurus Reader. This includes not fearing God or death and what pleasures one should strive for and avoid. I mainly quote from the letter to menoeceus, but the principal doctrines also provide good sayings.
I hope this video gives you some insight as to how you might act and hopefully you find something useful from it.

The proposed fiber optic cable could advance climate research and education.
The US National Science Foundation is proposing a fiber optic cable for their Antarctic research station, McMurdo. The cable which could potentially integrate with other research technology, could impact research and overall well-being of McMurdo’s visitors.
Summary: Just one protein situated on the synapse can profoundly alter how some neurons communicate and implement plasticity.
Source: picower institute for learning and memory.
The versatility of the nervous system comes from not only the diversity of ways in which neurons communicate in circuits, but also their “plasticity,” or ability to change those connections when new information has to be remembered, when their circuit partners change, or other conditions emerge.
