Are those gas plants not peakers? It seems wild to me there is 5gw of curtailment while there is 16gw of gas going. Surely the grid could use some more storage capacity.

It would be interesting to see if this could be combined with those little sidewalk bots to do the last mile, effectively having the Waymos act like buses for the bots.

When Node was just getting big I met Mikael for the first time at some Node event or another. It’s hard to overstate or forget how welcoming he was, always excited to see folks, and the one getting the energy of the room going. The more tim

I think this is a great point. The author seems to have a selection bias. All the “great” problems in maths are the ones that have remained hard to solve. All the stuff in the middle has been solved and then taught and is no longer “interes

Is that based on the average level of maths at the time? I would argue that there are far more mathematicians now who understand the results from that period now than there were then because our mathematical literacy, especially in higher e

I think this is one of those examples where many people wouldn’t think about botulism because both garlic and oil are common and store safely out of the fridge uncombined. Things like meat people might be more skeptical about, but imo this

Actually the first hit [1] on Google I got for “is it safe to infuse garlic oil without heating” is this article from OK state saying that it’s only safe without heat if you use citric acid. Of course, the incorrect Gemini answer was listed

If the phone was locked, passcoded, remote erased and sim-locked how did they know her number? I’m not doubting the story I’m just curious how they figured that out.

Sam Altman holds.. no degree? So presumably using their academic qualifications as a basis for their eligibility for the board of OpenAI is as silly as using Mr Altman’s? Would you give him the benefit of the doubt as an “AI expert” because

You mentioned RLCDs does this mean the screen technology is in the same family as transflective screens? I have a OLPC and a Toshiba R500 which have this kind of screen and they sorta kinda do work in sunlight but less so now than the newer

Just looking at Austin area I was pretty surprised to see that the price varied from $3.89 to $5.39 between South Austin and Round Rock (North Austin). But also even a $1 difference from McDonalds in Round Rock on opposite sides of the free

Maybe I’m missing something here, but wouldn’t heat become a bigger issue? Right now we have pretty intense cooling solutions to get heat off the surface of a comparatively thinner chip. If chips become more cubic how would we cool the insi

I feel like “Ask” vs “Sense” would be a better term. I’ve found this a lot in relationships where partners where a high bar is expected for how well I can to intuit their current state. “If I have to say it, it’s not romantic”, etc. I think

I think this was a nice article and helped walk through some of the maybe unintuitive maths but I feel like they missed the meat a bit. With random placement, as was said in the article, each flip is independent. With PoTRC it’s using knowl

I miss the commute that was my ~20m morning bike ride (now I have to motivate myself). I don’t really miss the commute that was 20m on transit but it was ok. I really don’t miss the commute that was 45-60m+ in traffic (even the times I was

I’d rather see them force technical measures that fix the problem than just issuing fines.

$300M is a big fine, but if they are saying this scam ring made over 500m calls did they really make anything close to this much? It would seem surprising to me if you could make anything close to $0.60/call with cold calling even if t
