I expect debates, hm
Interesting this got this much upvotes

But also why no one talked about land usage

someacnt_ ,

But how do we produce enough batteries for renewable energy?

someacnt_ ,

It's possible to do nuclear in cheaper sense, just do not ask for US ones

someacnt_ ,

Idk, maybe SMR or sth improve the red tape thing

someacnt_ ,

Idk if people would drop AI.. sad

someacnt_ ,

Doesn't seem to be including the land usage.

someacnt_ ,

That's why we need fusion, which will use a lot of the same tech.

someacnt_ ,

Wdym 10 year lead times?

someacnt_ ,

Why do you assume it takes that long? Are you assuming US circumstances?

someacnt_ ,

Why do they do this? The battery companies would want compensation, too!

someacnt_ ,

Where is this that has 30% nuclear already?

someacnt_ ,

Wdym skilled labor? I mean, nuclear mostly take bog standard constructions and the experts cannot be "repurposed" for renewables as well.

someacnt_ ,

How is China so good at handling energy

someacnt_ ,

Wdym space with nuclear energy?

someacnt_ , (edited )

It says it took 60 months on average.
I guess from approval, it often took 8 years, so a decade makes sense.

someacnt_ ,

I mean, it seems normal for big structure constructions to take 5 years at least..

About bog standard construction, I meant not standardized nuclear, but that many parts of it is just constructions

someacnt_ ,

I mean, the single biggest issue with solar is its land usage. Wind is much better with this.

someacnt_ ,

South Korea

someacnt_ ,

I guess you are talking about US, since 5 years is standard from beginning constructions.

someacnt_ ,

Well, I mean I was not thinking about USA..

someacnt_ ,

How viable is pumped hydro? It would be good if feasible, but last I checked, there were not enough places where you can install them.

someacnt_ ,

Which options, can you specify?

someacnt_ ,

Interesting, that was not what happened in my country. Sometimes it does take 8 years from allowance to finishing, but that's it.

someacnt_ ,
  1. It's not easy to go over all options.
  2. Many of these are largely theoretical, or for temporary storage. For instance, I don't think fluwheels can store energy for months.
someacnt_ ,

Imo batteries are like this since battery companies are quite greedy. They want some big cut out of the cost.

someacnt_ ,

I am talking in the sense that the same companies are participating in fusion research, and pretty sure the methods you mentioned are utilized somewhat in nuclear plants. Like handling and filtering radioactive materials.

someacnt_ ,

Yeah, it is like that in some places. Also solar flux vary a lot by seasons as well. Dunno if wind has as much of an issue, but surely not great.

someacnt_ ,

Will Li-ion battery companies let that happen? They want profit, which means they want to keep the high battery cost.

someacnt_ ,

True, but gotta see. Currently these companies are so minor.

someacnt_ ,

So sad we cannot bomb the oil facilities.

someacnt_ ,

I know this is nitpicking but.. I'd say the biggest issue with electric car now is the pricing. What do you think poor people should do?

someacnt_ ,

Exactly what I thought, we need less cars.

someacnt_ ,

Is this why chatgpt has a chance at optimizing work? Because it will filter out boring mistakes for you

someacnt_ ,

This is a tangent but, I dunno why we teach students how to solve ODEs. Computers can do these stuffs perfectly fine. What they can't do is the actual understanding and analysis.

someacnt_ ,

Almost the same thing
😏

someacnt_ ,

Simply study the Stokes theorem (in this meme), basically all of MVC >.>

someacnt_ ,

I see, did your class introduce the principles other than raw formulas? Imo the formulas are not so useful considering that you can look it up, but understanding the meaning they hold is worthwhile.

someacnt_ ,

Well, I heard they are switching to Android..

someacnt_ ,

This isn't satire? What?

someacnt_ ,

I am just sitting here like.. how. Am I too autistic to distinguish satire from non-satire ones

someacnt_ ,

Batteries will be very expensive, however. The battery company is still quite greedy, eyeing for 5~10x growth in the near future - and that requires raising battery prices by at least twice.

A PR disaster: Microsoft has lost trust with its users, and Windows Recall is the straw that broke the camel's back (www.windowscentral.com)

It's a nightmare scenario for Microsoft. The headlining feature of its new Copilot+ PC initiative, which is supposed to drive millions of PC sales over the next couple of years, is under significant fire for being what many say is a major breach of privacy and security on Windows. That feature in question is Windows Recall, a...

If only there is a way to invest in linux usage

someacnt_ ,

I cannot believe this post. This isn't real, right?

someacnt_ ,

How is this possible? Is linux really going mainstream now (If so, Musk freeloading on it is inevitable)
