And this is a problem. The businessmodel relies on scaling up when there's a peak. That's very normal in a system of coal and gas plants, but it doesn't work for a system full of renewables and nuclear. For systems with little to no fuel cost, it makes MUCH more sense to create a higher baseline and scale down when there's a dip, but that's not economically viable because we made the pricingsystem to ensure that isn't economically viable.

Statins are shit. The probability is higher to get diabetes from them than them helping with anything. Their mortality redaction overall is insignificant and you need to add high-risk patients to measure any effect at all. Refuse to take statins. Eat healthily instead.

Journal Journal: Line: Ah, to be 50 again.

Working on a report for someone in her late 70s over the phone, i lamented on being 50 when i took off my glasses and got close to the laptop to read the small letters on the screen. Her response: Ah, to be 50 again.

It made me smile. It's refreshing to hear things put in perspective.

You should watch a lot less Musk promo videos. Or maybe instead, you should watch them better. Musk claimed there would be 4 mars rockets in 2022, but right now, they haven't even gotten a single Starship HLS mission into space, let alone to the moon, let alone four of them to mars last year. Right now, there should be massive doubt if SpaceX can meet their Artemis program promises to get to the moon, not wild-ass plans for mars missions. HLS is already delayed till 2024, and Artemis is scheduled to land on the moon in 2025, and SpaceX has done zero out of it's three required demonstration flights.

This post doesn't even remotely border or anything resembling reality. It's just fanwank scifi.
