That sounds like the album is using the allegories from George Orwell’s Animal Farm.

I request a citation that it was a major cause of Texas' power outage, because looking at this graph, there is a step-down in nuclear generation on Feb 15th from 5 to 4 gw, but that's smaller than the step-downs in natural gas (-1

From the article you quoted: > In order to replace the two nuclear plants while the sun is down, the batteries would need to replicate two 1.117 GW power sources for 16 hours. The total energy storage capacity would be 39.3 GWh, after we

This is brought up often on discussions about Taiwan and China. To be clear, the vast majority of politicians in Taiwan do not actually believe they wield power over mainland China. That Taiwan still calls itself “Republic of China” is beca

Firstly, I applaud your YIMBYism. Secondly, regarding waste, I share your view, and I think there’s an additional travesty that we’ve had breeder reactor technology for decades. That can significantly shorten the volume and half life of was

I’ve run into that issue with the incorrect line changes. I think that’s a sync issue between neovim and VSCode. I usually switch to another VSCode tab and back and it goes away. It’s disruptive, but I can live with it. I’ve tried many othe

I use VSCode with NeoVim as a backend. https://github.com/vscode-neovim/vscode-neovim I highly recommend this if you know vim keybindings and want an IDE experience.

I gave this a brief scan. Cells sound like an abstraction of kubernetes pods. I do find the k8s structure useful, and I would point someone to just use that rather than going through this document and basically creating your own version of

Did “right to bear arms” ever include larger weapons like cannons? I’ve kind of wondered why the second amendment doesn’t cover larger and more destructive things.

I think you’re off in your analogy. Parent comment is closer to the 0-60 time because of the responsiveness, and you’re referring to time to move a 1000 lbs mass to 60. When I see “responsive” in terms of cooking and gas, I think of wok co

While I’m bullish on BTC, my personal spending choices fully agree with you as I don’t perform any spending transactions with it. That said, I’m watching these developments closely because the M2 growth from QE does alarm me, as someone who

It looks like you’re correct: https://www.globaltimes.cn/page/202103/1219245.shtml I was in Taiwan for the bulk of Covid and the only possible source of a Pfizer vaccine was from China’ Fosun group. It looks like

Another part of the problem is that China forbids Chinese citizens from getting foreign made vaccines. They’ve acquired them, but only allow foreigners to get them.

I was a long term, full time contractor from about 2015 until 2019. It worked out better for me since I was working as a nomad abroad. Around 2019, my client wanted me on as an employee. I never found out the precise motivations, but I susp

I've wondered this as well -- and I wouldn't limit it to TSMC leadership. It could be a Taiwanese program or even a CIA one. For the other replies to you saying that they can't just use the machines, China has been and likely

Because renewables alone don’t replace nuclear or fossil fuel plants. Renewables with enough battery backup could, but then it’s no longer as available or cheap. Nuclear is much better suited for base load power than solar and wind. Take a

I think the second case is most likely. I don’t see crypto displacing any fiat or even financial rail system completely, but just taking a sizable share. I’ve seen very reasonable use cases in Southeast Asia in remittance. Western Union tak
