On: UBeam finally shows off its wireless charging tech

Another word for that range of the EM spectrum is "microwave". At moderate power density, they very efficiently cook meat. You are made out of meat.

[ryandamm → throwanem]

To be fair, that's just because the emission of microwave ovens is tuned to a resonance of water molecules. That said, I think that resonance is rather broad, so you could expect a fair amount of coupling at large power.

Also, microwaves can denature proteins; one symptom of massive microwave exposure is cataracts (from the proteins in the eye denaturing).

But man, I really hate charging cables!
