How to Make a Dynamo?

Apparently, it is easier than I thought to make a very small power generator for your easy to charge electronic devices, like a phone, for example. I was wondering how difficult it might be to fabricate, DIY as they say, my own charger that could work on footfall or leg movement, to charge my cell phone while I walked to the store or to the library. My first search turned up some advice to just cannibalize an existing electrical motor from some electric device, which might work if there were a junk yard near enough, but you’d still need the other materials, apart from the actual knowledge of how to do this. So, how much knowledge is actually required? Well, there are quite a few videos up on YouTube, of course, but whether those are reputable and actually work without burning down your apartment, I cannot yet say. Let’s look at the basic science of the problem, first. Project Do Better mentions this matter several times, as I recall, or hope, since it has been a while since I wrote it, and I know that this idea was on my mind all of that time, but then the (always free…) Do Better manifesto is an organizing manual, not a science textbook, and I remember cutting out a good bit of material in the final few drafts. So, I did some searching.

El agua, el gran afectado/ Water, and AI

Thanks to rtve, Spain, for news about how the water used by AI, according to the UN, is a serious concern. Apparently, most of the Carbon emission evaluations are leaving out the water needed to cool, as well as generate, the electric power used by AI centers, and thus underestimating the carbon footprint: “La mayoría de las evaluaciones existentes se centran en las emisiones de carbono asociadas al entrenamiento de modelos complejos. Sin embargo, cada kilovatio-hora de electricidad utilizado para entrenar o ejecutar un sistema de IA también conlleva una huella hídrica, derivada de la refrigeración y la generación de energía, y una huella terrestre, derivada de la infraestructura energética”
