If you look at the graph, 0GW.

It’s unlikely that the batteries stored power for several days. Highly likely that abundance of solar is the source.

Is the internet scarier?

Or is it just millennials and “internet natives” having kids and more of them knowing better what the internet actually is.

I tell people to imagine a public place with everyone in it, the majority wearing masks or costumes. With constantly recording surveillance. Do you take off your mask.

Sure the mask is not perfect protection, and there are areas off to the side where people seem to not be wearing masks. But go ahead and choose a way to keep your kids safe.

Bankruptcy is seen as a bad thing. In reality it’s the part of market forces everyone has forgotten is important.

If something we need becomes unstable in the market, the government has to provide it and usually does on a break even basis.

Base load electricity will likely have this future.

There’s no point about talking about the physics of the grid without the economics.

The story of the New York blackouts is not one of groundbreaking physics.

It’s the story of two lightning strikes, some very basic physics, and a systemic failure.

Understanding the systemic failure is not a physics question. Electricity is already well understood and that physics isn’t changing.

A renewable grid is not a physics question either. It’s one of regulation, redundancies and the end goal hasn’t changed.

Saying “production and consumption on the grid must match” might as well be put in the pile with statements like “wires must be made of conductive material”. They’re just 2 things that haven’t changed.

That’s wrong and it’s simple to explain why.

If the grid allows negative prices, grid storage becomes a profitable business opportunity.

The power consumption will always go up or production will go down if prices go negative.

We are missing a key piece of the puzzle to decarbonise the grid and that’s storage of the abundant renewable power we could easily create.

This is a sign the market is ready for investment in storage.

Are they bringing back the headphone jack?

My Nokia should last until 2027 with updates but it would be nice to know my options if it breaks.

A really bitter tasting pesticide essentially.

Us mammals coming along recently has changed some things.

Cat-headed eagle in Cantonese.

Cat bird in Japanese.

Literal translation for their words for “owl”.

Yeah, Manzat really ruined the rainbow. Made it all about cities.

And in Burma there’s that child eating thing.

And in Albania the whole trans folk tradition from 6 centuries ago. With the Catholic saint of St. Anne.

Why can’t we go back to pre-culture days when Humans didn’t use any symbolism, or meaning, or anything.

Except for people like me I never paid Google with money.

I gave them my date for them to organise and assist me with.

If they can’t use my data to assist me, I’ll stop giving it to them by turning off permissions and features I don’t use.

Google really does need handling over your data to be useful. Especially as the EU gradually forces defaults to be for privacy. Google will need you to opt in more and more and that means they do need to give you good service.
