> So what? As is clearly implicit to the meanest intellect in my comment above these are alternatives that are being built right now after having already passed pilot testing and now being scaled up for grid storage.

No, they are not. They are still in the prototype stages. Gravity storage is still being prototyped. Heated sand is only being used for district heating. If you've got news about a real production deployment of grid storage using these systems, I'd be eager to read it.

> and use the excess to produce green hydrogen, ammonia, methonal [sic], etc to buffer nighttime demand

If we find a feasible way of doing these things. These storage schemes are theoretically possible, but as of yet they are not demonstrated to be viable at grid scale. The reason why most of the talk is around batteries is because they're the most viable storage option at the moment. Will one of the systems you listed deliver much better grid scale storage? Maybe, maybe not.

If your point is that intermittent sources are viable contingent on an energy storage breakthrough, then yeah I'm in agreement. But it's not exactly wise to bet the future of your electrical grid on a technological breakthrough that may or may not happen.
It's astounding, isn't it. It's not often that you can know exactly how you're being fooled and continue to be fooled anyway. It's magical.
> what's odd is that you are telling someone who actually wrote it what was intended

They're telling you what you wrote, not what you intended to write.

They're correct.

> The "explicitly mentioned aspect" is the unpredictable behavior.

No, it was breaking best practices and behaving like it had a death wish. That's something that has some overlap with being unpredictable, but is not at all the same thing. You can have a predictable death wish, even.

> maybe your biases made you infer more than what was actually said

I don't think I have much bias here and I agree with them. Also consider that the person that writes something is biased to think the communication was clearer than it actually was.

> And not to beat a dead horse, my secondary point has consistently been

It's neat to have a correct secondary point, but it won't make your primary point correct, and people don't need to add a disclaimer of "while your secondary point is fine" every time they criticize your primary point.
It definitely feels deliberate and yeah it is a feedback loop.

I have to wonder what this "Alliance" is supposed to be.
The one comment on this post is hilariously unhinged. For posterity:

My personal guess is something like hydrogen will take this place eventually.

In the not so distant future I think we will see a lot of sharply negative pricing on windy days, given that we will probably have ~70GW of wind capacity installed for perhaps 50GW of demand by 2030.

Then on non windy days (especially at night with no solar), somewhat higher prices - not sure how high but there is going to be a big delta between the two.

That means there will be a lot of aribitrage to be had and money to be made to store and shift that power.

My guess is H2 will work quite well for this, as even if it's really quite inefficient the fact your input power is free/negative negates a lot of that. It really will come down to how cheap hydrogen electrolyzers can get.
I will try:

A group is a collection of objects that you can transform via certain defined methods and they respond in known ways.

A metaplectic group is like a mirrored version of a group you already know, with a few other changes in the behavior. Internally similar enough that in seeking to understand it you’re not starting from scratch; the group feels familiar.
Tesla vehicles have a LOT of telemetry, which the company has used to establish fault for accidents and damage. I wouldn't be surprised if many of these cases involve the driver being less than forthcoming about what was happening when the damage occurred.

Technology Review covered this back in 2016 after a driver falsely claimed their Model X crashed into a wall on its own.

Last month, a court in China ordered an owner to publicly apologize and pay damages after falsely claiming her Model 3 had a brake failure.

A lot of this stuff was actually cool...but OpenAI got there first.

By the time LaMDA came out, we already had ChatGPT. Palm2 was a serious ChatGPT competitor, but by that point, we had GPT4. Imagen was trained in mid 2022 (!) and could do text and everything, but they locked it away until SD and Midjourney had claimed the market. When it finally came out, nobody found it interesting. And now we have Gemini, which appears to be equal or slightly worse than GPT4, which itself was trained in mid 2022.

They just don't ship things fast enough.
they would need to be certified by some org created by OpenAI, Goog, etc. for safety.

Part of me wants to be able to encode my life2vec and see what the next predicted tokens are. On the other hand, as much as going to a fortune teller sounds fun to me, I worry that if I go I will simply make what they say come true since I will be anxious about what the fortune teller said.

That said, my life is already on a certain track, and because I'm afraid of change, it's unlikely to be much different than it was before. Maybe this is just a weird call to actually do what your gut says, and to follow your dreams.

“Hollywood Accounting” gets its name for a reason.

I guarantee you there is _no one_ who knows the exact ROI of a show in terms of dollars. In fact they don’t want to know (because it would be a liability). Often times studios set up entire shell companies for tv shows that they “loan” studio money to, and then set a variable interest rate slightly greater than the rate the shows bring in money, so they can declare a loss no matter how successful the show is even though they’re getting their own money back. That’s been going on for decades.

This is all a roundabout way to say, only in the highest profile disasters is something ever cancelled for “money”. Usually it’s something else, and much less rational: this exec doesn’t like this show for their personal resume, the show is successful and entering its fourth season but the showrunner wants a raise that an exec doesn’t want to sign off on lest other showrunners hear and demand a raise, an exec thinks starting a new show will demonstrate “leadership”, another exec hates another producer, the streaming service decided it doesn’t want to host one of the few-WGA animated shows (this is what happened to Bojack Horseman), etc.

Sounds like a case of projection. Most people aren't especially intimidated by driving, and quite a few actually enjoy it. Far fewer people enjoy being packed onto a crowded bus or train with strangers (and those are the ones who inevitably sit next to me.)

When people have the option to drive, and the money to do so, they usually prefer to.

I don't understand your first point about firewalls, but port forwarding on a consumer router is no more difficult than opening a port on a firewall. Either one can be overcomplicated by a badly designed interface. See Uniquiti Edgerouter for an example.

I know gaming consoles can be a pain with NAT, but is that NAT's fault? That link you pasted about the Nintendo Switch is literally just an article about setting up port forwarding.

And that NAT slipstreaming issue is just a vulnerability caused by complicated protocols. Saying that a fundamental network technology is bad because its implementation is flawed doesn't make sense. I guess we should throw away x86-64 because Intel Skylake processors had side channel vulnerabilities.
Please, can we not with the rationalizations either way. This was bought and paid for, end of story. All the "negotiation" was just the necessary theater.

That isn't NATs fault. That's a dynamically assigned IP address. You can pay for a static, or you can use Dynamic DNS to work around it. If you didn't have NAT, you'd have a static IP by default, but again, you'd be paying for all those extra IP addresses you need.
