  • The end of optimization

    Jump

  • they are still optimizing. it's just their interest diverges ever more from the rest of us.

    this is the real misalignment problem: not between human and AI, but between ordinary people and big tech.

  • you could really make a good meme about the Soviet Union boycotting UN security council meeting and the rest of the members just voted in favor of defending South Korea without them.

  • is the Facebook app still able to receive the fbp cookie if it is in another profile or user? what if it lacks background network access?

  • Negative Preise für Solarstrom: Stromverbrauch vom Steuerzahler subventioniert

    Jump

  • if I recall correctly, in the EEG renewables lose their fixed feed-in premium in case the negative price duration exceeds a certain amount of time.

  • In 4 years, US power grid increased battery storage to the equivalent of 20 nuclear reactors | The Optimist Daily

    Jump

  • Although renewable + bess still wins according to most recent studies on that matter, cost comparison between nuke and renewable / Bess is not that useful. Assumptions on the longevity of nuke reactors, for example, helps little if the fleet of reactors end up constantly break down and require repairment as in France and Belgium. So lcoe of nuke over long time span is highly uncertain and contingent; even in construction phase nuclear projects already entails higher risk in time and budget overrun than renewables. Plus the positive feedback loop of learning curve, evident in renewable and Bess, is not so visible for nuclear.

    What is more useful for sake of current policy discussion is deployment rate and scalability, which renewable plus batteries clearly wins.

  • In the California desert, residents are struggling with the influx of massive solar projects

    Jump

  • solar panels in a desert seems relative low impact infrastructure

  • China constructs world's first dual-tower solar thermal plant — and it will help generate nearly 2 billion kWh annually

    Jump

  • just thinking: why stop at 2? I suppose a grid of heat towers with mirrors beneath would provide maximum utilization of the solar radiation

  • Lazard Levelized Cost of Energy Comparison 2024

    Jump

  • its the marginal cost of running existing plants, mainly from fuel cost.

  • How did gravity worked on the Death Star?

    Jump

  • since death star is capable of delivery a blast with high energy density, its core might be a nuclear fusion or anti matter power plant. maybe the mass there generates sufficient gravitational force.

  • Nuclear too slow to replace coal, and baseload “simply can’t compete” with wind and solar, AEMO boss says

    Jump

  • The political context here is that the Australian conservatives (the liberal coalition I suppose), who have been vividly against climate policies and renewables, are now trying to propose nuke projects on coal power plant sites. Many of these coal power plants are soon to be phased out with renewables plus storage in the queue for the freed transmission capacity, so there isn't really any advantages these sites can offer for nuke projects decades from now.

    Of course, any realistic realization of nukes in Australia would be no earlier than 2040 (some even suggest 2050), by then they could already get 100% renewable in energy system easily.

  • Donald Trump calls for Taiwan to ‘pay’ for its own defence

    Jump

  • my understanding is that Taiwan buys weapons from the us, so he is demanding something that is already a common practice

  • Lazard Levelized Cost of Energy Comparison 2024

    Jump

  • just a reminder if they put the orange diamonds for wind and solar it would probably lie somewhere near zero $/MWh

  • Good news for 100% clean energy. Geothermal has finally arrived

    Jump

  • It is highly dependent of the local geological conditions. Convection-based geothermal plants (those with hot spring flowing around) probably have less constraints on heat extraction limit. Conduction-based geothermal plants will face more problems.

    In some shallow geothermal use case the ground is used as seasonal heat storage so heat renewable rate is not an issue.

  • People doing the 30 days linux Challenge are having several problems because of Mint's old packages and technology. Why people still recommend it when there is Fedora and Opensuse with KDE and Gnome?

  • The moemorphic character shown in the picture is Archchan, created by ravimo. I wonder why show her in a discussion about Mint?
