No where in the world (except perhaps your place), it is legal that a balcony solar plant feeds into the grid when the grid power is gone. In Germany it is explicitly checked when you install one.

The ones I know from Thailand are imported from China: they all switch off when the grid power / frequency is gone.

You would manually need to bridge that ...

I know people with these meters have been charged for unintentional export because they for example had the CT installed backwards.
That does not make any sense. Electricity does not work that way.

No idea.
If you mean tank: depends how big your tank is.
If you mean battery: depends how big your battery is.

The distance is 572km ... so basically every electric car and every gasoline/diesel car should make it.

However: if you mean with Tank a Panzer ... then one tank would not get you very far. As Poland and Germany is now allied ... I assume, yes you can go with one Tank with renewables from Berlin to Warsaw.

Perhaps you should learn what full stack development means. Java or Scala etc. on the backend and HTML, JavaScript on the front end: is not full stack. It is two half stacks. Facepalm.

The rest of your rant is pretty pointless, did you just google Vue.js etc. or did you know about them in advance?

You use frameworks to write less code.

It is a difference if I have to write 1000lines by hand for brain dead simple html nonsense, or only 100 lines, easy to read which are backed up by a framework.

Point is: Java in the browser does not exist since 20 years.
And the other point is: JavaScript - and if you do not like its type system, use TypeScript - is an EXCELLENT language since over 20 years.

The "browser wars" and JS does not work in this browser as supposed and that browser: are long ago history.

And if you do not know how stuff works: don't invent stupid shit like "developer is running to boss and tells him how you suck".

Since decades we can minimize JS and only package what the browser really needs. And yes, of course: for that you need to know what tool to use. And that tool will with 99% certainty be written in JS or its derivates and run on node.js. /DISCLAIMER: I have nothing to do with JavaScript. I am a Java, C++, Dart programmer. And even I know this shit ... and you don't.

People shit talking on /. about JavaScript: are simply braindead mindless drones who never read "news for nerds, stuff that matters", stuck in their 1980s fake knowledge.

No one in our days can still claim that JS is on the niveau of 1997. Hint: it is not.

And a 200MW gas turbine is only 200,000HP.

What exactly is calling it what it is disproportionately?

Car engines in most of the world are not classified by HP since decades, probably since 30 years.

Obviously we know that a normal car has an roughly 100kW engine. And 1MW is obviously roughly 10 cars.

No idea what is wrong in your brain.

Hydrogene explodes extremely rarely.
If you have a leak, it blows out and off just like children air balloon. The gas is gone rapidly.
And if that leak gets ignited, it is just flame like from a gas fired welding tourch.

To make an hydrogen explosion, you need first something that explodes the tank. So it can mix with oxygen, then: it can explode.

The last Hydrogen explosion I am aware of was the Fukushima reactor buildings. Because the Hydrogen could not be vented off.

Now, hydrogen is hard to contain completely, but it still tends not to leak that badly.
That is kind of a myth.

Hydrogene can not be hold under pressure in a metal tank ...

Since we know how to make plastic/carbon fibre/glass fibre tanks: it is no problem at all.

Leaks can be a problem in pipes, especially if the gas is burning, as the flame is nearly invisible.

Lol. There are some pretty good zingers buried in the literature.

I'd add a footnote to my post observing that although mainstream medicine no longer gives patients leaves to munch on, an important "medical" industry called alternative medicine, nutraceuticals, or just "supplements" frequently does. Several studies suggest these are usually shredded mixtures of generic houseplants of questionable origin.
