It is worth pointing out that the Python implementation is particularly bad. Perhaps gRPC is really pleasant to use with Java and Go, but the Python implementation is neither usable nor stable enough for it to be worth considering its use f

That is just semantics. I am arguing that a nuclear shutdown event would have different long-term effects today. In the short term of course, fossil fuel plants would still be able to pick up the slack, but there would be a larger share of

Usually the sun not shining means higher wind speeds, not necessarily at the same location. In general a larger grid means less overhead is required. HVDC is tested and proven, UHVDC links are also being constructed now https://e

This is research from the 1980s. It is undoubtedly correct, but it does not not apply to today. Today, renewables are competing favorably against coal and nuclear power on price, and they are improving rapidly still. It takes easily 15 year

Say what you will about goody-two-shoes liberals whining about minor issues — as far as science, truth and reason go, the ideology of the current administration allows none of them. That is reason enough to double down (and hopefully priori

The thing is diesel was pushed because of its low CO2 emissions and lower cost at the pump. Of course the German government wants to protect German auto companies now, but EU laws are comparatively lax on NOx emissions in part because the f

You ignore that emission standards in Europe were less strict when it came to diesel pollution, so that 5cent placebo plastic pipe makes the cars compliant there. Emissions standards in Europe focused on C02 emissions and not so much on the

How well does this handle SVGs? I used PhantomJS for headless rendering before, but it didn't properly render SVG linear gradients.

ii. vs iii. boils down to explicit rather than implicit. iii. is simply easier to understand. I believe most people would also agree that ii. doesn't look particularly nice.

So far Trump has always said what he needed to say to accomplish his goals, not the other way round. I am sure any government funds that profit him directly or indirectly will keep flowing, but I don't think we have any reason to belie

Now that Trump's cabinet picks are becoming public, all bets are off. It is entirely likely that vital U.S. research projects will be shut down at short notice. I don't think these scientists are being paranoid at all. The data, w

Didn't CTR have one million dollars total? That buys a large number of bots or a small number of commenters. In either case, pro-Clinton comments were much too diverse that CTR could have played a big role in them.
