Maybe you should see it more as doing things other people need and want to pay you for instead as an more abstract entrepreneurship...


The panic about right wing intrusion of social media ownership keeps getting to new highs, now even predicts a come back of RSS because woke people don't want to be seen using Twitter any more... #fail #them


Full of hot air and day dreams.

As if more over capacity will make the battery problem smaller.

It will cost enormous, the plan compares to the current enormous unaffordable price levels and then even cost much more.

Also it will depend on Chinese made goods. The needed battery capacity is not ever done before and the production capacity is not available in the market.

This is pure fiction, we need to focus on fixes that keep Europe running this winter and next winter. So that not all industries going to go broke.

We need more gas and oil fast. This will need investments. Lots of investment. Not useless day dreams of ideologues.


> We need more gas and oil fast.

We need more reliable and consistent base energy in overabundance fast. Nuclear can do this without creating a climate catastrophe. Even if you need energy dense chemical fuels, nuclear energy can be used to create these without net climate impact.

Hydrocarbon fossil fuels are the addiction that modern society needs to break from. Nuclear is an excellent "methadone" to ease the transition. But society seems to be split between denying there is a problem at all, or insisting we're all ready to go "cold turkey". Neither approach is reasonable to bet the continuance of human civilization on.

It's not reliable, there's no overabundance (or even a way to match pace with renewables), and it's certainly not fast. New mines get delayed even more than new reactors.

European gas storage is ≈ full right now: https://graphics.reuters.com/UKRAINE-CRISIS/EUROPE-GAS/zdvxo...

Europe will be fine this winter.
