RE: heavy is dead

“DART was the first hypervelocity impact experiment on an asteroid at size and velocity scales relevant to planetary defence, intended to validate kinetic impact as a means of asteroid deflection. DART kinetic impact was highly effective in deflecting the asteroid Dimorphos.”
it is going to get very bad, very fast, if this lasts through the weekend bsky.app/profile/sky....
it's surprising how much worse it is now compared to when i first decided to ditch it for regular bsky usage. i found like. ONE GUY. that was giving insightful commentary on the commodities clusterfuck. "For You" over there is pretty much completely busted
deactivated the account
parts to watch out for is Pakistan energy collapse while they're fighting a war with Afghanistan, and whether China decides to get more hands on. this is the closest WW3 has been for the past 30 years imo
right now tho heavy solar/batt capacity with its economics weirdness is far preferable to the price apocalypse about to hit the world. Aus is relatively insulated on nat gas but many others won't be

I did not watch more than the crashout but fwiw I am not a "renewables suck" reactionary, it's about strengths and weaknesses
the weakness here is very high % of grid as VRE means higher power pricing cuz LCOE did not factor firming costs into "lowest price energy source!!" graphs often shared
very nice
Vista Energy breaking out
argentine oil & gas stocks are probably about to rocket like fuck
pinch your nose closed and lease a Tesla
it's starting to, though
from news . com . au
China is not fucked but Chinese exports might be. they have enough for internal demand but you should expect export curtailment of stuff that heavily involves petrochemicals/plastics, hence why i think importing solar/batts/e-scooters now is far more preferable than waiting a couple months
is it the one where he blew up about the dogshit ICE/current admin were pulling? he's done a few vids on greentech
I am using the conservative (and therefore likely overestimated) WHO estimates using linear no-threshold for radiation exposure -> increased cancer/death risk for both Fukushima Daiichi and Chernobyl here
champagne environmentalism of "well i dunno, i'd prefer if there were less people anyway that'd work better" is a position that can only be held if you are either incredibly insulated and privileged, or civilizationally suicidal
the purpose of the ideology is the result. the result of not building out large amounts of zero carbon base load generation is more environmental destruction, respiratory illness, deaths, hardship on the poor from cost of living increases.
but said power used lets them generate money. if they can only use power half the time then ROI considering same capex is massively trashed -> "ok we'll open the datacenter/aluminium smelter/chemical plant in [polluting 100% uptime country] instead"
the problem is not technology it's bureaucracy. you want nuclear power stations built a dozen at a time done before 2032? designate a few areas to essentially hand over the full regulatory regime to China during the construction and don't interfere
claude.ai/public/artif...
it is far longer than 6 years if you yield to labyrinthine bureaucracy seemingly expertly crafted in the West for the purpose of impeding nuclear power construction. Japan and SK median was below 6 years until recently but the Chinese are still pumping them out in the 5-6 year range
capital intensive industries told to not run near 100% utilization on their depreciating assets will close up and open in countries without that handicap
australia will relax its regulatory barriers or the hard consequences of crap energy policy makes it hurt
you build whatever you fuckin' can right now but if you depend on variable renewables for most of your power needs you're trading current immediate pricing apocalypse for continuously elevated power pricing
bsky.app/profile/snep...
6 years. you do not need more than 6 years to build out multiple nuclear power stations. you eat shit for 6 years on power prices until you ensure you don't have to any longer.
