Are you referring to the immediate oxidation of the outer layer when exposed to air?

Pure sodium can react with the moisture in the air. (If I recall correctly).

Aluminium is used in drink cans and is very inert. Aluminium shavings can burn though and they’re difficult to extinguish.

I’d lean towards C# with AOT compilation if you’re not using reflection, you should be ok.

Embedded. I’m currently writing software with 96 bytes of RAM. My next project I get to splurge and have 8kB of RAM and 32k of Flash.

I’m more scared with how badly I’ll handle/manage the 8k of RAM.

The current pikes peak speed record is done with an electric car. Electric cars are quite good at speed as well.

I base everything on GMT + X. When I’m inviting people to meetings. You work out your own Timezone. Also tell me when you want to meet in terms of GMT. It helps stop the summer / winter crap for both northern and southern hemisphere.

They’re more of a hybrid technology. They have some great applications.

Like temporary storage when using regen from a car. They can buffer the energy and help with a rapid acceleration.

Dash cam in a car. They can charge the cap and in the event in a malfunction / event. The camera can continue to record.

Solar lamps. Charge during the day. Release energy during the night.

They’re poor at long term storage. Great at fast and temp storage.
