I kinda think at least some form of part-time toddler daycare is necessary. For the stay-at-home parent's sanity.

So nighttime is cheaper than daytime. As logic would dictate.

To be fair it is a better passenger experience at that price point .

I don't see any nighttime prices there. Where do you see that nighttime rates are higher than daytime rates in Pennsylvania?

> Lot of industry, especialy heavy industry, chemical plants are running 24/7. Right...so they also run during the day (that's what 24/7 means), when everyone else is using electricity. At night they're the only users

> peak electricity prices are after sunset The famous evening duck curve, when people go home and cook and turn on heating/cooling appliances. California is able to flatten that out with batteries alone. https://eticaag.c

Or use batteries. Also residential and industrial use will be lower at night. So the existing grid supply may also be enough.

If electricity bills are steady or falling they should have no trouble convincing voters. Nothing to worry about.

People should stop citing that paper. It makes the opposite point they think it makes. I think most people just read the first couple of sentences in the abstract. "We estimate that data centers caused average retail electricity rates

So then does the data center compensate local residents for their higher power bills today? Until the new capacity comes online? > Your requirements is like demanding nobody can buy a house unless they have pay they entire amount upfront

Can they build it safely as fast as the data center it's meant to power? Full steam ahead then.

X-ray machines aren't all that expensive. MRI machines generally run close to capacity because of how expensive they are. There is very little slack. Cancer treatment already costs a fortune.

> The point is that FIFA is a corrupt European institution It has "international" right there in the name. The vast majority of its members are not "European" in any sense. Calling it "European" is offensive

by triceratops 1mo ago
Would FIFA be less corrupt if it were legally incorporated somewhere else? I didn't know registering an entity in another place automatically changed the character of the people that run it. That's magic. Literally mind-control.
