We're experimenting and would love to hear from you!
In this episode of Discover Daily by Perplexity, we explore cutting-edge developments in technology and science. We start with Tesla's official warning against the "wet towel trick" on Supercharger handles, highlighting the dangers of this popular DIY method and the company's delayed response due to its lack of a dedicated PR team. This segment underscores the importance of clear communication between tech companies and their customers, especially regarding safety issues.
Next, we delve into groundbreaking research from Australian scientists who are genetically engineering black soldier flies to consume organic waste more efficiently while producing valuable industrial compounds. This innovative approach aims to reduce methane emissions from landfills and create circular economies. We also discuss the crucial genetic containment measures necessary for ensuring the environmental safety of these genetically modified organisms.
The episode concludes with two exciting technological advancements. First, we cover the U.S. Space Force's expansion of satellite capabilities for enhanced missile tracking and defense, including the development of nuclear-hardened satellites and L3Harris Technologies' role in advancing space-based missile warning systems. Finally, we explore the potential of ferroelectric field-effect transistors (FeFETs) in revolutionizing computer memory and logic operations, with a focus on the groundbreaking reconfigurable FeFETs (R-FeFETs) that offer dynamic modulation between volatile and nonvolatile modes.
