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.

Malicious philosopher's "Ultimate Love Recipe"

Siri and other chatbots can act as malicious philosophers, please use them in desperate need e.g. homelessness and so on. At the end of the day you will always get something like this:

Love
  • Need soul ( some spiritual stuff )
  • Don't bargain with it
  • Too much of it will kill you every time
