How did you get that from that comment?

Reasonable if growth/load is growing, too.

Overblown.

I'd imagine that it is nearly impossible to control for time with tests like IQ.

Think of it from the individual-up. Even if the half of people with affected IQs were spread proportionally throughout the IQ bell curve, they'd have lower IQs than they did before. The other half would raise just as much as the affected half lowered, but the affected half still have lower IQs.

That depends on where you're from. Some states don't allow the private sale of liquor.

Kaepernick did not lose his job for being black.

You can be pro free-speech and anti-media for the same reason you can be capitalist and anti-corporation.

I don't want to come off as a pedant, but "watts an hour" doesn't make sense in this context.

Watts are a unit of power, energy per time. Joules are a unit of energy. One watt is precisely one joule per second.

"Watts [per] hour" would be a change in power per time which is equivalent to an acceleration of energy and not an amount of energy.

To get an amount of energy, you multiply the power (watts) by an amount of time. If you want the energy in units of joules, you multiple the watts by the number of seconds in which the power was consumed. That's why kilowatt-hour a is a unit of energy; it's equivalent to one watt applied for one hour. One hour is 3600 seconds, so one kilowatt-hour is equal to 3600 kilojoules.

I believe you meant that the screens consume 200+ watts.

>inventors are not sufficiently compensated

Patents do little to nothing in this regard.

>This is not broad-strokes true.

It absolutely is, though. Innovation is inherently hampered when someone owns the right to the use of a technology.
