I think the hazard they’re afraid of is that the employees will unionize.

Yup, typically I just mentally multiply by 1000 (nice round numbers). But obviously a 100MW farm in the Sahara is going to produce more in a year than the same 100MW farm in Germany. It’d be cool to see a list on a global scale that showed a table and maybe generation vs demand curves for the area they serve. Maybe I’ll put it on my “projects I’ll never get to” list.
Like capacity x capacity factor, e.g. if your 100MW site produces power 50% of the time (because of nighttime, clouds, etc) then it would produce, over the course of a year 100,000,000 x 24 x 365 x 0.5 = 438 GWh annually (very simplified).
Does anyone know of a site that tracks the typical GWh of these big installations?
I think these guys get headlines exactly because they target things that “belong” to all of us. PETA throwing red paint on some rich schmuck wearing furs? That might get a minute of airtime. But (safely) paint Stonehenge, throw baked beans on the Mona Lisa, etc and every news outlet will cover it.
When did we get away from saying “X - formerly known as Twitter” ? I liked seeing that gentle nudge in every headline.
It’s not like they swapped titanium for balsa wood. The origin docs were falsified or missing, which could mean anything from they weren’t the right purity but were shipped anyway to they were imported from Russia and illegally bypassing sanctions.
This is a kind of bromeliad right? I’ve had some outside for several years in south Florida that are still “flowering” like that. at least one of them has stalked off a new plant
I’d let all of these statues and monuments stand, but require the descriptions to all be preceded with “defeated traitor”. So instead of the Robert E Lee Memorial Park or whatever it would now be the Defeated Traitor Robert E Lee Memorial Park. Require it to be referred to that way on Google Maps, local newscasts, etc and see how quickly people suddenly want to rename them.
New drug: 60% survival rate with no disease progression.

While technically it’s not “off the charts”, this is pretty damn impressive. I’ll allow the hyperbole.
This is actually pretty clever. If he’s found guilty then it’s rigged since even Mother Teresa would have been found guilty. If he’s found not guilty though, then he’s even better than Mother Teresa, since he beat a rap that would have taken her down or whatever.
Only a matter of time before Ministry for the Future moves from fiction to non-fiction (well, the horrible part at least. The part where humanity fixes things will likely remain a fairytale)

It was. It’s meme rotation.

Oh, yup, these are not derived from Phoenecian, but considering how recent they are they were developed after the concept of a phonetic alphabet had already been widely circulated
Do you have any info on that? I’m not too familiar with Eastern languages, but all of the examples that I can think of have phonetic alphabets less than a millennium old.
Yes, but it’s quite recent, only a few hundred years old - https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Origin_of_Hangul
The most insane thing to me is that — as far as anyone can tell — a phonetic alphabet was developed only once in all oh human history.
The reason is that the cost of living in the US has been decoupled from wage inflation for a long time.
These days the government’s inability to regulate industry (due to partisan gridlock) combined with the fact that corporations used the period of high inflation to also hike prices has made it even worse for those who were already living on or close to the margin.
