I run a power grid. We have our own fiber optic network, run on the towers. 100% air gapped. No working from home. No IOT. Nothing fancy. SCADA control center staffed 24/7. If I want to know something I call them. This is the only way.

I've been buying peptides for over 10 years and know all about them becoming popular in the news. I live in Asia. Living in Europe isn't an excuse. You're indeed under a rock. I've never been to silicon valley.

I've done it. The larger the grid, the more difficult it is. But as long as you have fuel and an adequately maintained grid, its not as hard as some in the comments make it out to be. Better regulation would make it easier. For instanc

No it's not. It's a pain in the ass but this isn't even close to correct. There are rocket launches and nanometer scale chips being built by engineers. Firing up some emergency diesel generators and syncing loads isn't e

I don't like to drive when I have to pee. I always pee before I get in the car whether I need to or not.

They won't let you until you turn 50, I tried. If you do get it before then, the doctor could get into trouble. That's what I was told.

If you make that big of a decision at the dinner table without excel, it implies that you make the decision without doing the math, which implies you are stupid.

Trying to make them look interesting is a bad idea, tried numerous times in the past. The best a designer can do is to make them disappear and not draw your eye. Trying to make them look interesting generally isn't the way to go. It&#x

No it doesn't make sense. Transmission lines should be a boring as possible so you're eye is not drawn to them. There is no way to make them look beautiful. Good designers try to make them disappear to the extent possible.

I live in Asia and I'm in charge of air conditioning at my company. A ductless A/c is approximately $1,200 installed. $20k? You should put a split unit in each room. If one breaks, go sleep in the other room. I have 6 of them inst

Go check if insider trading on either of these markets is even against the law. The SEC makes laws for equities markets, not online gambling.

The only thing new here is running them continuously. They were typically on standby for peak shaving or to avoid rolling blackouts during high peak loads or unanticipated contingencies. I operate 15 "747 engines" to produce elect

That's not correct. It's basically cost per distance, unless you're talking huge power over huge distances.

These mini grids will never lift any African country into modernity. The cost of renewables is not falling, if you take into account the hours those renewables are not producing power. If a country cannot build a basic power grid, they will
