- Comment on EV sales could reach up to 60 million items per year by 2030 with battery material shortages named a challenge 15 hours ago:
Major sales, and increase in sales, as well as production of vehicles, and manufacturing, seems to be china (1).
In china EVs are a mass market product. In the western world it’s a luxury product, with tarrifs to keep it that way.

Data lake, activate.
- Comment on What do you create? 15 hours ago:
People in manufacturing and r&d quite like the question, I’d reckon. I wouldn’t relate it to social status.

Bad guess by me :)

- Comment on Could anyone recommend me a self-hosteable TinkerCAD equivalent? 16 hours ago:
Would love to learn if it exists too. I use it often.
The only other way I know how to CAD is github.com/pythonscad/pythonscad

Receiving my first bicycle was a big thing for me. All of a sudden, a bigger world to explore.

doesn’t have the best intentions for humanity (or profit strangely enough)
Reverse filantropy. Quite remarkable indeed!
- Comment on What do you create? 17 hours ago:
(Laser?) Machines for semiconductor fab. Given the time of day, I’d wager ASML, cause there’s not much else happening in that branche in Europe.
- Comment on Just read an article somebody stole 40k from an atm. How is that possible that an atm carries that much? And is it even possible to get inside an ATM if so? 17 hours ago:
A few years back there was a gang of criminals that used explosives to breach ATMs in the area I live.
- Comment on What do you create? 17 hours ago:
Machines that put cameras in the right place and lighting. Then identifies things.
Mostly agriculture and/or pharma related.

- Comment on Petition calls to ban Elon Musk's X in Europe 1 day ago:
More than that. The Brazil government made it illegal for it’s citizens to access the site, as well as the use of a VPN.
I think it’s a swell idea, banning your citizens from reading information you decide is wrong.
- Comment on Petition calls to ban Elon Musk's X in Europe 1 day ago:
Apparently, it works by fining users that visit the site. See chapter “Blocking”.
How nice, a government that puts criminal penalties on it’s citizens reading the (according to them) wrong things.
- Comment on Petition calls to ban Elon Musk's X in Europe 2 days ago:
It’s short sighted indeed.
- Comment on Petition calls to ban Elon Musk's X in Europe 2 days ago:
In practice, we could sever the connection between EU internet and the rest of the internet.
Maybe whitelist a set of ideas that are allowed to pass through the great eu firewall.
- Comment on Anon questions our energy sector 2 days ago:
it’s already way too expensive.
If you don’t account for the storage problem, renewables look like a cheap solution, indeed. And you end up with renewables + huge reliance on fossil fuel.
This is an ideal scenario for the fossil industry.
- Comment on Anon questions our energy sector 3 days ago:
We’re like five years into an energy revolution
Exactly, after working on it for over 30.
It seems like theyre not even planning on going fossil free.
That quote, again, not mentioning stored energy. How do they not understand that storage needs to be specified in both power and energy?
- Comment on Anon questions our energy sector 3 days ago:
what makes steel
Vs
What makes iron
- Comment on Anon questions our energy sector 3 days ago:
Hydrogen, in one form or another, is the answer to all of those things
No it isn’t? What makes steel steel is the carbon inbetween Fe.
Green hydrogen has been promised to me my whole life. Sad to day I now understand your point of view. Natural gas wins.
- Comment on Anon questions our energy sector 3 days ago:
Already happening, on a small (but industrial) scale.
I mean, isn’t that the problem with all storage technologies?
Is the goal of renewables to do 90% of the year with renewables, and 10% of the year with fossil fuel?
Hopefully one day, the last 10% is “green hydrogen”, “syngas”, “synpetrol”? That’s how the intermittancy problem is “solved”?
- Comment on Anon questions our energy sector 3 days ago:
Gas can be synthesised
When’s that going to happen? Right after the green hydrogen revolution?
They’ve been saying that for decades. It isn’t happening.
It’s not technology it’s physics
Sorry, I didn’t think someone would deny the existance of dunkelflautes. It’s currently happening in Germany. (1).
- Comment on Anon questions our energy sector 3 days ago:
I don’t think lithium ion is the only storage technology. I was using it for scale.
The most cost effective storage is pumped storage. But even that wouldn’t reach the scale necessary.
6 MWh pumped storage proof-of-concept won’t l, either.
- Comment on Anon questions our energy sector 3 days ago:
is what gas is for
Wouldn’t it be better to go fossil free. Given, you know, climate change?
That’s physically impossible for a place the size of Germany, much less Europe.
Unless we use a different technology, that is not renewables + storage?

I hadn’t made that connection. Thank you
