In order to integrate more renewables onto the grid (which are non-dispatchable generation), we need to add more generation and load flexibility on the grid. This means you need more communications between all the various parts running the

Yes, I agree with this argument. The intelligence community has consistently valued offensive capabilities over improving our tech defenses. Apparently they think that finding and hoarding exploits gives them an advantage over other state a

But that's not who you're trusting. The issue now is that any "business record" is available to be requested by law enforcement without a warrant. The case law around third party doctrine is a huge friction point in esta

Yes. These bids are usually for a "power purchase agreement", which is a bid to deliver X amount of power over some period of time. All of the maintenance, fuel, wear/replacement costs are included with the bid since it'

Hmmm, I think it's too early to tell. After all, we've witnessed move-fast-and-break-things social networks (Facebook, Twitter, Reddit) that had no desire to influence society in a big way get hijacked by state actors to achieve p

The largest fossil subsidy is the lack of a tax or regulation on greenhouse gas pollution. I used to work in emissions and most other types of air pollution (NOx, SOx, mercury, etc.) had either a permitting or cap-and-trade process that sou

We won't. Over 80% of oil we pull out of the ground is burned for energy, and we are switching to alternatives at a rate that should have us fully transitioned before we run out. And thank god, too. We can only pull up a quarter of our

Yes, it can. However, the running-a-free-CA part is what is too big to fail, not the protocol.

It seems that running a free CA doesn't really have a business model, so capitalism isn't going to produce viable competitors. Additionally, other impact-focused people (non-profits, etc.), who would otherwise be willing to make a

Heh. The way web bloat is going, I can totally see a framework "optimizing" this by showing the user a spinner over HTTP while an ajax request does the first tls handshake, then redirects the user to the https version of the site.
