Isn't using it with GitHub Copilot a violation of GitHub terms of usage, due to usage of internal API? I read that they have an official partnership with OpenCode, and I guess it is fine to use it with OpenAI Codex, but what about othe

Metabase works great with DuckDB as well, thanks to metabase_duckdb_driver by MotherDuck.

Price != cost/value. You can produce cheap electricity at noon, which would have little value.

I asked Framework that repeatedly, but no progress. I think they might be violating EU Regulation 2018/302, which is rather common, mostly due to ignorance. The problem is that it is rather hard to enforce such regulation to non-EU&#x2

[citation needed] Lazard 2024, CAISO scenario: nuclear is cheaper compared to go with renewables + batteries (max 4 hours). It also does not take into account integration costs, such improving network connectivity. It is quite ironic, becau

Cost != price/value. You can produce energy cheaply at noon, but it has little value compared to electricity produced at 18:00. The higher the share of renewables in the electricity mix, the more storage is needed, and it grows faster

Short answer: no, they are not (read footnotes 1 and 2) CAISO, 1st column, 1st bar: - blue is the cost of solar - beige is the cost of firming intermittency using gas CAISO, 2nd column, 1st bar: - blue is the cost of solar+battery (max 4 ho

Of course it has debt, as almost every company and state :) EDF got loans from banks and money on the market, based on the fact that investors thinks it is a good investment. That is economics 101 and holds true for all publicly traded comp

When taking into account the "Cost of Firming Intermittency" the total cost can go up by 2/3 times in the "CAISO" case at page 8 of Lazard 2023, which is higher than LCOE for existing nuclear and to some LCOE estima

The amount of debt is not directly correlated to the health of a company: most companies have debts, and building nuclear reactors is very capital intensive. EDF net income for 2023 is 10B €, while for H1 2024 is 7B €. From 2007 to 2024 alw

Thanks for the links :) They should use EU/EEA actually, since the very same rule apply to the whole EEA. Given what they have written, I guess they would be glad to amend the page.

Well, if I select Norway I read: "We haven’t opened ordering in your region yet, but we’re looking forward to getting there!" This is definitely illegal inside the European Economic Area, but I guess they are not aware of that. It

Thanks for pointing it out. The website is rather opaque with respect to funding. It looks that both associations are non-profits, with a lot of students, scientists, professors and professionals. This does not seem incompatible with their

Is it Denmark really putting taxes on electricity so high that a kWh costs 2 times more than in France? Just to reduce consumption? The interesting data you linked clearly shows the problem with high mix of renewables: even if the average w

The cost of energy does not only depend on the cost of production: Denmark has a lot of cheap wind energy, but it costs almost three times more than in France. And the higher share of intermittent sources you have, the less valuable the pro

Denmark's electricity is almost three times more expensive than in France. Solar+wind does not cancel out variability. Backup is needed. LCOE does not mean lower prices. Higher shares of renewables drives up costs for the network to re

The final price does not depend only on the production price. You cited Lazard 2023: if you read the firming intermittency price estimations, you figure out that solar and wind in the California grid costs 2/3 times more than when just
