1HP sustained is not insane for a horse. A human OTOH is a very different matter.
1HP is actually ~5 horses. There was a test trying to measure it. https://youtu.be/7qxTKtlvaVE

For reference, this is what 700W cycling looks like: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S4O5voOCqAQ
I can do 300W for 30mins - does that mean I can barely heat up a Pop-Tart?
Even without a battery, I could easily imagine designing an efficient single slice toaster that could handily brown a pop tart on a 300W budget.

If you like then "golden," perhaps the entire box.

For more reference how insane 700W is, the average FTP of a world tour pro road cyclist (i.e., Tour de France) is ~350-420W/6-7W/kg. FTP (Functional Threshold Power) being the avg you can sustain for an hour without fatiguing. My own is ~250W @ 3.12W/kg. I can't even hit 700W yet, let alone for over a minute. My 5 second power is ~640W. Crazy numbers.
Can you still touch your toes? I doubt Robert could... hopefully your own practice leaves you more balanced .

Spend 30 minutes charging a battery and you should have enough energy to turn any flavour of pop-tart into carbon flavour. Even without a battery, I could easily imagine designing an efficient single slice toaster that could handily brown a pop tart on a 300W budget.
My partner just got a rowing machine that offered "watts" as a unit of how hard you're going (like "calories" or "mph") and got me wondering if they made rowing machines that could slowly charge a battery, and how much I'd need to row to power one of them fancy newfangled M5 Max MacBooks answering prompts. All that to say, CrankGPT, I am your target demographic and if you don't respond to my request for a demo I'll b…
Soon enough we will see rowing machines rated in max TFLOPS.
(although I salute the attention it brings to an important cause)

Why can't technical people appreciate that us, the silent majority, love having our scroll hijacked? I can't remember the last time I used a scroll bar to navigate a website, but using it to navigate between choppy javascript keyframes fills me with joy.
This isn’t scroll hijacking You can scroll normally, with all your favorite keys, or go super fast to the bottom It’s just scroll animations. Bad ones, admittedly.
Not sure it's possible to say this without being pithy, but haven't there been stories told, perhaps TV episodes and films made, regarding the concept of using human bodies to generate power in support of machine intelligence? Seems a little on the nose to me, but I guess some days it's hard to tell what's a gag and what's a legit pitch.
