Mostly yes, but it works the other direction as well: a fossil power station may not want to completely shut down because it expects more demand later in the day, and offer a few hours of low cost electricity to stay in the merit order.

In the North Atlantic most paths are slightly curved to take the most efficient route (taking curvature of the earth into account). There is one prevalent route from Gibraltar to Florida that is straight as an arrow though. What is up with

I know it does for a small Dutch setup :) https://www.kalamatakarma.com/ Marketing is still completely word of mouth afaik, but the webshop makes it easier for total strangers to tag along.

Is someone even trying to open source that type of content (routes, pois)?

From experience, the bread has a better rise when I feed my starter for three or more cycles/days after storing it in the fridge. As if it needs to "wake up" and increase its speed of metabolism.

I agree that most leaders will now they are fallible, and also have some idea of which things are problematic. As an inexperienced leader, I still valued getting "known feedback". It gave me a better idea of which problems were gr

That's an interesting idea, you'd probably be able to know ip addresses via wireguard. Protocols like CoAP or SenML can be used to keep payloads small. MQTT, aside from being pubsub, has more functionality that is especially usefu

I'm curious which lost land you are referring to. Building skyscrapers on former swamps is indeed difficult.

That is not nearly the same thing. The US and western Europe have been roughly aligned about geopolitical interests, values (democracy, freedom, mostly liberal, based on a secularising Christian foundation), rules and laws. China is diametr

Makes me think of the Peter principle. Pretty depressing conclusion though: a large company is bound to be an environment with many distractions by underperformers. Any way out?

I wouldn't have thought "any publicity is good publicity" would hold even in this case.

It's wonderful that this device may help people perform for very long stretches of time where that is unavoidable. It will probably make easier to deem a long shift 'unavoidable' though: if you can have people be alert for 12

This is a consequence of Brexit and the election of Trump, democratic decisions that caught many people in power by surprise. Sophisticated use of social media platforms turned out to have a significant influence on public opinion. Although

Same here. With so much high-quality information and entertainment available the choice of what to invest time in becomes harder and harder, eventually consuming a significant portion of that limited time budget to begin with.

I'm considering implementing part of this at work. It feels less ritualistic than scrum, and leaner for a small organization. The 'appetite' concept brings out the discussion of cost (time) vs (business) value. I feel this is

I am often impressed by the things that can be done with these old-school UNIX tools. I'm trying to learn a few of them, and the most difficult part are these very implicit syntax constructions. How is the naive observer to know that i

'lie' is too strong a word perhaps, but 'story', in the sense that Harari uses it in Sapiens, is exactly what it is. A fiction, but not less real.
