Op is right though. It’s still a cost/benefit situation, and the benefit is not enough to justify the cost.
Sure, but there’s an lot of people classifying disagreement as hatred and using that to stamp out the discourse we need to have as a society.
Take positive discrimination. Some see it as corrective action for historical injustices. Some see it as newspeak it for just another form of discrimination and two wrongs don’t make a right. There’s a societal discourse that needs to happen there.
Nobody is preaching hatred, but I expect I’ll get shit for even suggesting there’s a ethical argument against DEI.
It would be if the administration signed an ethics declaration.
Python doesn’t have casts and is strongly typed.
I don’t understand how you think the smaller coupon gets more volume. It gets no volume as the hypothetically “good honey” redirects everyone away from it.
We never have been 100% renewable in the UK. It’s more that we go into surplus and shutting generators down is more expensive than the price going negative. Hence we won’t get huge negative prices. Connectors to other countries can only export so much.
It also only happens when:
The population of Germany is only 25% bigger than the UK, so I think the two are comparable. A larger manufacturing base will make the demand-side curve more predictable though. Still, we’re largely talking about the effect of supply unpredictability.
That’s still a shitty exploitative business model. A bit less deceptive, but that original coupon vendor is still having affiliate revenue stolen from them.
Join once. Leave seven hundred and twelvety times.
My problem here, and I don’t mean to victim blame but I don’t understand why anybody thought Honey had a business model that was trustworthy. Most people would see through the slimy guy in your example, so why would they install a slimy guy in their browser? Why would people take sponsorship from a slimy guy? Why would they read our copy that tells kids to “install it on every computer in the house”?
Nobody asked themselves “How does Honey make money out of this?” because at the very least they were going to be data scraping! That much was obvious.
It also happened in the UK and I suspect other European countries with significant wind generation. Is this still a rare event in Germany? 2-3 times a month isn’t uncommon here. Especially in the winter.
I struggle to call this capitalism. It’s so twisted and corrupt it doesn’t resemble what it started out as.
Yes it’s imports. Norway / France and Netherlands mainly.
It’s the coal they’re burning.
UK for comparison (Average over year)
GW | % | |
---|---|---|
Coal | 0.18 | 0.6 |
Gas | 8.31 | 27.7 |
Solar | 1.52 | 5.1 |
Wind | 9.36 | 31.1 |
Hydroelectric | 0.41 | 1.4 |
Nuclear | 4.36 | 14.5 |
Biomass | 2.15 | 7.1 |
Edit: Imports are the remainder
A lot do. They call them “rationals”.
Neural net evaluation mainly, but FP16 is used in graphics too.
Not sure I’d be trusting Musk’s communication network at this point. Especially not in Ukraine.
A federated system of discussion groups. That’s such a 90s idea.
