I think in this case parasitoid has a specific meaning: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parasitoid >Parasitoidism is one of six major evolutionary strategies within parasitism, disti…

Can we trust them to enough? If they have a medical emergency (which is quite probable, old people are in risk of all kinds of trouble, even before the harsh environment of spacesh…

Would not count it as forest, but plantation, if it is heavily managed.

I agree. And how all of our meager steps towards trying to learn the pre-requisites of sustainable colonies (eg. closed cycle ecology) have failed miserably. For example Biosphere …

The energy balance just does not work with current agricultural paradigm. For example, plowing is really energy intensive and electric tractors just can't carry the required amount…

Must be quite low power engine + small battery system for that to work and translate to the promised charging time

You are correct. Some devices expose local API's, most have walled garden cloud API's Before buying a device, it is a good idea to check if there are open source adapters for it fo…

I work for a company that does exactly that (for heating systems, especially heat pumps). If anyone is interested: https://www.kapacity.io/

RIP, his work made a huge impression on me. And I admire the dignity to go when one chooses. I guess we are all Dying, Fast and Slow.
