This is kind of an outdated notion. In the 90's NL was very progressive, but after 3 decades of conservative-neoliberal governments it's middling at most. E.g. selling weed to stores is still illegal - massively funding the underw

They are portable, you can open a file made in Spanish Excel in the English Excel and vice-versa and always see VLOOKUP in English Excel. It's "just" that since the formula language is also localized, you'll need the Exc

The reason is pretty clear, XML and its ecosystem was (is) enormously complex. When naively - but correctly - parsing introduces serious security vulnerabilities [1] you kinda have problems as a format. XML is just incredibly hard to get co

That differential is mostly due to shipping and limited supply though. Creating and processing LNG is expensive, and there's limited worldwide infrastructure to make it.

That is going to be an expensive habit in the future once time-variable pricing is the standard, which I think is inevitable. Charging your car at 6PM is going to be super expensive compared to 3 AM or 1 PM. Also note you'll still have

$0.11/KwH is super doable. Keep in mind that discharging is only necessary and profitable during peak demand, when prices are much higher than that. $0.50/KwH is far from uncommon. E.g. today energy peaks at €0.28/KwH in my a

I have a system with the capability. It's quite convenient for dynamic on/off. E.g. instead of having a timer I turn on the heating when I wake up from bed, and if I go home I put it on before leaving or while underway.

the "real" time-based prices have much more variability, if you have time-based prices you can buy for a lot less and sell for a lot more during peak. That difference can easily be double that 18 cents/kWh.
