The government could have relaxed the fixed prices, and perhaps they did that anyway?

Your list does not illustrate what you claim. E.g. Finland was not at all dependent on Russian gas, because Finland does not use much gas, so 92.4 percent of nothing. Meanwhile, Germany's gas imports were huge and you cannot leave 58.9

The German goverment went as far as nationalising Uniper, the big gas and energy company. Now, Russia has made an even more destructive move and seized Uniper's and Fortum's Russian subsidiaries. (Fortum lost billions in both case

I know this is HN but the first reaction to a broken system should be to fix it, not build a business on top of it.

To reduce the storage needs, I think most people could be flexible with their power usage during emergencies, high prices or bad (local) production. For example, I can typically postpone big-screen movie nights, doing the hoovering/lau

Pumped hydro does not need to consume water, it can pump the same water over and over. In some places, it can use saline water from the ocean. The EU report says hydro power can help agriculture e.g. if big reservoirs are built and on dry y

That's part of the point: pumped storage (and other solutions) can be used even though the climate changes. Batteries won't have to be the main storage solution. Another part: over-provisioning does not increase the costs much as

To get an idea of the scale of hydro storage: > European hydropower reservoirs provide a storage capacity of 220 TWh (85 TWh are located in Norway). https://setis.ec.europa.eu/hydropower-and-pumped-hydropower-...

Existing hydro is able to fill in for some of the storage needs, and pumping water up the dam will be one type of large-scale storage that can be built. See pumped-storage hydroelectricity: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki&#x2F

Small-scale solar installations are not supposed to get you off-grid and like you observe, a small-scale/battery storage isn't going to change that. Instead, the idea is the grid-scale combination of solar, wind and hydro with var

Buying solar panels from China is not the same kind of dependency as buying fossil fuels from Russia: the first is an investment, the latter is consumption. Also, solar panels can be built anywhere, while fossil fuels are a limited natural

Yes, all the cheap surplus wind and solar power will be used for many things, also e.g. low-emission production of steel and hydrogen, running heat pumps and even boiling water for hot water reservoirs etc. Also, this "nuclear breakthr

It's kind of a minor nitpick but I also miss the half-size arrow and pgup/pgdown keys of Thinkpads. Framework already provides multiple layouts so they might be able to provide this variant on their Marketplace as well. Your tape

They say their codebase includes 400k lines of Haskell code (plus 4.5M lines of Mu). Also, they use GHC which is a huge Haskell program, and they customize it with their own extensions etc. As they copy Haskell library code and only sometim

I see. So before today, you could preorder Framework Laptop 13 with Ryzen 5 or Ryzen 7 without knowing which CPU model you'll get, but today you can preorder with Ryzen 5 7640U or Ryzen 7 7840U specifically.

by tuukkah 3y ago
GHC has a system for language extensions so they have developed a few proprietary ones for Mu. For the standard ones, see https://downloads.haskell.org/ghc/latest/docs/users_guide/ex...

Sure, it's a bit weird but not that weird as they have a huge codebase in a specific domain. Also, they still end up using a lot of Haskell code (and semantics) although they write in a thin layer of "DSL" on top of Haskell
