Most of the effort has been done in design. Rotating mass of generators is a nice self-correcting system, also the frequency is a near-zero latency signaling mechanism across the entire grid. Each participant can measure it and make indepen

Is it? How often do you experience outages? It needs maintenance but it's incredibly reliable and resilient if you zoom back a bit.

I would warmly recommend everyone to read The Power Broker[0] to get a tiny glimpse into how innocuous things in different laws get planted and combined into getting wildly different outcomes from public perception. It's also gotten wa

Grids have many-many consumers and many generators. So switching on a single AC does not have a noticeable effect. There are however correlated events like the famous East Enders peak in the UK (daily TV show at the end of which a large num

Frequency and phase difference are indicators of grid balance. Grid itself can't store energy, the generation and consumption needs to be in balance. If transmission balance goes out of whack more electrons want to flow to specific pla

Good instinct. There is a site that measures frequency in several places in Europe and shows the phase difference. [0] The phase difference is not really about distance it's more about energy flows, where it's lagging there more p

Silicon for solar panels has to be 99.999999 percent pure—six 9s after the decimal. Computer chips are even more demanding. Their silicon needs to be 99.99999999999 percent pure—eleven 9s.

Zeke Faux’s book Number go up has a couple of chapters on scammers who are actually themselves victims of human trafficking in Cambodia. Some of the scammers in the original video sound Nigerian to me, not sure what the situation is there.

The small diesels like VW Polo etc have resistive heaters as otherwise it would take too long for comfort to heat up the cabin. Also don't forget that seat heaters are also resistive and most cars in cold climates have them.

I don't get the hype about Everything Everywhere All at Once .. quite a letdown. Nowhere close to Rick and Morty it had been compared to. Severance however was pretty good. Children of time - amazing.

Really? So you don't remember the bombing of Kyiv where corners of high rise apartment blocks were blown of by rockets and artillery. Or Kharkiv where whole blocks of apartment buildings were demolished by indiscriminate shelling?

How does this lead you to your original claim of: > The recent Israeli-Palestine conflict has shown that Russo-Ukrainian war is actually fought very carefully from both sides.

The words you wrote here make no sense and are in direct contradiction to your original claim. Can you please clarify your thoughts?

It was pretty clear from the context that the person I replied to was referring to israeli air strikes against Gaza. I have no doubt hamas is a terrorist organization who don't give a crap about any civilians, be it Gazans or not.
