Just ask engineer friends random questions from time to time, and when there is no consensus, calculate the results properly.
Eg. How much power could a solar powered fly collect?
How many tons of batteries would I need to drive a train across the USA?
How long can I power my laptop from a solar usb battery bank in the sun each day on a hiking trip?
What's the load time of this webpage I just wrote on a satellite internet connection?
How long would it take to boot up my OS if I could keep RAM intact during a reboot?
How many kilos of coal does it take to cook a pizza?
