Definitely, the problem is: What does Russia provide for China? For energy, China is also all in on renewables. See this chart for what they are committed to building. https://www.iea.org/data-and-statistics/charts&#x2F

The renewable build out is what I would imagine is one of the causes of this, besides the geopolitical and keys to dictatorship angle. Within 5 years, 10 years at most, Europe will have transitioned far enough to renewables that energy is a

That would work. The internal consistency will be at least once and you do de-duplication to handle message reliability through the database then. In other words, you need to uniquely identify each message to ensure idempotency since you wi

I think it has to be looked at from a greater picture. I previously lived in Skåne in Sweden, from there I could get to Gothenburg in little over 2 hours and Stockhholm in like 4 and a half, with the slow high speed trains in Sweden running

Why even compare to fossil fuels? That is simply disingenuous to make it look good by choosing irrelevant opponents. Compare nuclear to wind and solar and try to find any case it makes sense in.

With a capacity factor of about 70% [1]. Compared to for example the US at 93.7%. That difference of 23% has to be taken out over the top of the already high cost of nuclear, which as we can see here still lose money at the higher level. [1

Completely agree. I've used it at work now for about a year and the postfix notation flows perfectly with more intricate usages of futures. Especially with the sense that you construct one, then decide when to await it, or await a coll

We also have a 14 day return window, or more clearly you have to notify that you have the intention to return it within the window. During this window you are allowed to test the thing you purchased. This applies to any remote purchase. Ret

And say 3% makes the entire country renewable? What is the better use of money then? Energy is energy, and even better if it is vastly simpler to generate with less headaches to take care of afterwards.

I would rather see it as a way to easily demonstrate why GPDR is not simply about cookies and their management. It concerns any method of creating an identifier which would allow for tracking.
