maybe 3x is goodenough?
At 94, John Goodenough has accomplished more than most. Working at Oxford in 1980, he and his colleagues invented the rechargeable lithium-ion battery, the bedrock of most of today's electronic devices. For this accomplishment, he has been given more awards and distinctions than any one person could hope to receive.
But Goodenough is not one to rest on his laurels. More than 30 years later, and now a professor at the University of Texas at Austin, Goodenough has outdone himself by inventing an even better version of his ubiquitous lithium-ion battery.

Goodenough's new battery boasts triple the energy storage of standard batteries, along with a much higher longevity. As an added bonus, the battery doesn't explode like lithium-ion batteries can.
Here\'s What an Exploding Lithium-Ion Battery Looks Like
The new battery is solid-state, which means there are no liquid components in the battery. Traditional lithium-ion batteries are made of a solid cathode and anode separated by a liquid electrolyte that conducts electricity. Goodenough's solid-state battery replaces that liquid with a more efficient glass compound.
A solid-state battery not only carries little risk of exploding, but also can charge much faster. With a solid-state battery instead of a lithium-ion, charging could happen in minutes instead of hours, which would be beneficial for people charging their phones and electric cars.
Although this battery may be a game-changer for electronic devices, don't expect to see it in your phone or car anytime soon. New innovations in battery tech have many large obstacles between development and production, so it may be a long time—if ever—before Goodenough's invention makes it to market.
But Goodenough has already done this once, so it's hopefully just a matter of time before his solid-state battery is adopted by the industry. Until then, we'll just have to keep using our inferior and fire-prone Goodenough batteries over the better version.

the book was compelling for sure.
One thing is it seems to "fit" with human behavior as well as current events. I'd really love access to the vatican archives.

>unimportant.
On a mass scale, I agree
But the internal conflict of all the mass of lies I've dug through have really taken a toll on me. I don't care what the Truth is, what it costs to get it, I simply can't accept a lie and pretend it's the Truth. I can keep my mouth shut, smile and nod, stay out of conversations, but I can't pretend a lie is Truth. It is so uncomfortable to me, it's torture.
>Ignorance was bliss.
It really was.
I used to lie. A lot.
I'd lie about shit without even thinking of the truth that was actually a better story to tell than the lie.
Then I found myself boxed in and embarrassed to be "me". I created my own hell.
I'm so honest now I don't even talk to people. Don't mind a fun LARP here and there, but when it comes to IRL stuff, I'm silent or honest. All the lies have left me.
That's a little over the top

I can't be offended by the truth.
If anyone says an offensive statement to me, I see it as free advice.
