My view of building a space elevator

The ultimate tensile strength of carbon nanotubes is increasing and it should serve as a space elevator in the next 100 years. My belief is that the space elevator should be assembled on the fly by some algorithm in the atmosphere, rather than on the ground when the ultimate tensile strength of carbon nanotubes will be strong enough.

ᵁᴾᴰᴬᵀᴱᴰ My view of cranking a battery

There are so many "Battery Doctor" apps for smartphones that are doing okay and if you have time you can try to do it on your own. I believe the best method for cranking any battery is intensive usage while charging, so for smartphones, the thing that should be effective is YouTube. You can enjoy videos carelessly knowing you're doing a good deed.

UN's new global standard to feed the world's population

UN News - New UN guidelines to make international trade in plants and seeds safer

A United Nations commission overseeing plant health has adopted a new global standard to ensure that international trade in plants and seeds - vital to feed the world's population - is free from agricultural pests and disease-causing bugs.

I'm not an expert but I think artificial manures should be deprecated.

Smart tires - Goodyear shows off its smart, spherical tire concept

Smart tires have really come a long way. I remember when they were filled with just the foam, preventing a blast.

Also please do the cleaning of tires, especially if you are coming from rural areas.

The nature of spacetime - Cosmos is fun to a Martian if an astronaut is moving

Time, blue and red clock By Cleonis - Cleonis, CC BY-SA 2.5, Link Sometimes they say time flies when you're having fun, meaning, time seems to pass quicker when one is enjoying oneself. From the local frame of reference (the blue clock), the relatively accelerated red clock moves slower, while the blue clock moves faster considering the red clock and the same local frame of reference.

Brain Awareness Week

Brain Awareness Week (𝖡𝖠𝖶) is the global campaign to increase public awareness of the progress and benefits of brain research.

I don't think smartphones have "brains", just memories 😃
