And don't forget that's 36 SEK/MWh minus VAT, so in reality it's 45, and businesses don't pay the VAT of course.

Facebook will have a much lower price anyway. Large industries (like steel plants, mining operations, paper mills, saw mills, and, yes, data centers) in Sweden have not been affected yet since they are not normally directly exposed to the s

Uber-style ratings are awful for restaurants. Uber Taxi is basically: you did your job, you get a 5. Any aggregate rating below 4.5 could just be a 0. Uber Eats... you did your job, I got the right order, and it was delivered. Well that&#x2

I used to be a cast iron fanboy. Seasoning, polymerization, yadda yadda and all that jazz. Then I got an induction stove. I now consider cast iron to be overrated. The heat retention makes an induction stove pretty pointless (apart from the

Rubbish. Considering a single reactor costs €11-19 billion[1][2] to build in Western Europe currently (Olkiluoto 3, Flamanville (we haven't seen the final bill for that one yet)), an additional 300 million dollars is a drop in the buck

I feel you are cherry-picking those South Korean numbers. If you look at the latest ones that started construction in 2009-2012, it's taken 10 years (and some are still not started). That's "one decade". Extrapolating th

This seems pretty neat. Economical? Doubtful, but I really like not criss-crossing the above-ground with railroad tracks and roads, and that cost is hard to calculate. Definitely interested in seeing how it turns out. Also, I cannot wait to
