- Comment on Hydrogen's Big Year Continues With New California H2 Transit Project 4 days ago:
it’s not just volatility that’s an issue. Entirely new infrastructure needs to be built. Even setting aside volatility, Hydrogen is extremely difficult to contain because it’s such a small molecule. And it’s also corrosive. These are not trivial challenges at all.
It’s true that batteries present their own challenges but we are making much more progress in battery tech than we are with hydrogen.
- Comment on Hydrogen's Big Year Continues With New California H2 Transit Project 5 days ago:
most people do not know that.
thought the promise is that you could establish a hydrogen infrastructure and it would get greener over time - similar to EV’s which get greener over time as power generation includes more renewables.
why would we use renewables to produce hydrogen when we could just use that renewable energy as it is? That’s just adding extra steps and inefficiency for very little benefit, if any.

- Comment on Renewables blow past nuclear when it comes to cheap datacenter juice 1 week ago:
problem is solar and wind are variable and not feasible everywhere. for places like australia solar is amazing. Winter in canada? not so much. So for a baseline you’d have to store a massive amount of energy in some way.
if you plan on batteries that requires lots of precious metals we will need elsewhere to aid in the transition to electric power.
- Comment on Renewables blow past nuclear when it comes to cheap datacenter juice 1 week ago:
generally agree but tech firms are looking into small modular nuclear reactors sized for datacenters.

- Comment on Disney+ cancellation page crashes as customers rush to quit after Kimmel suspension 2 weeks ago:
even if that is the case it’s a good sign imo. it means people were causing an impact big enough for them to notice and take action.

even that is a good sign. it means there’s was enough of an effect for them to care.
- Comment on Disney+ cancellation page crashes as customers rush to quit after Kimmel suspension 2 weeks ago:

- Comment on RFK Jr. Blames violent video games for Mass Shootings. 3 weeks ago:
Instead of making suicide harder, we should be treating the root cause of suicide
Or… both?
If people get hurt due to gun accidents, I highly doubt they’d be happy if we took their guns away, since that’s like solving traffic deaths by banning cars.
it’s not even remotely the same thing since cars’ primary purpose is not killing.
Suicides and gun accidents are certainly interesting statistics, but mixing them with homicides just makes it harder to see what’s going on and arrive at effective solutions.
it doesn’t really. what does make it harder to arrive at effective solutions is making any excuse possible to avoid gun control.
- Comment on RFK Jr. Blames violent video games for Mass Shootings. 3 weeks ago:
why should we exclude suicides and accidents?

the comment wasn’t about fox news specifically, it was about news in general. like it or not, we need news agencies to cover what these people are doing.
