Your first statement is not true. Eggs can absolutely have salmonella in them if the chicken ovary is infected as the egg is forming. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1…

NuScale/Fluor claim they can bring the UAMPS project in Idaho online by 2027 at an amortized average energy cost of about $55/MWh. https://www.powermag.com/nuscale-uamps-kick-off-i…

I don't know enough about importing capacity in that other grid since they're hooked up to the western half supposedly but I agree with your points. TX being hooked up to the rest …

Texas had blackouts due to extreme cold as recently as 2011. The findings from the investigation after that event were ignored and we are now seeing a repeat of it exactly 10 years…

The regional grid above TX is also instituting rolling blackouts due to this weather.

The latter. They do not want federal regulation. For the pedantic TX does have connections to other grids but the capacity is so low that it wouldn't have mitigated this event and …

As a programmer in state government this approach is not feasible for many reasons the chief of which is that at almost every level of government we lack technocrats. In the very u…

I failed my interview with Amazon and I blame them. They tried to rush me to an onsite after passing my online coding assessment. 4 different recruiters were in contact with me abo…

Here is a very early(2007) and unintentionally humorous attempt to script in Perl with voice recognition. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MzJ0CytAsec

Yesterday I signed up for Proton mail to start splitting off my data from Google. The announcement that they are now vacuuming up health data without patient consent is unacceptabl…

PG&E is a monopoly. In the vast majority of cases you can't shop around for electricity or gas service, the only alternative is to go without electricity and/or gas service. In the…

You can, they're just not marketed to consumers. Search electronics retailers like B&H, Newegg, etc for "commercial displays" or "digital signage" and you'll see a lot of familiar …

One big thing that's changed since you graduated is that the program is going to Python as its language of choice starting this fall. C will only be taught in one or two classes. I…

ABET accreditation for Computer Science undergraduate degrees is utterly pointless and should not be used as criteria for selecting a CS undergraduate program. For example. https:/…

If you have no data to back up your claim you should not make that claim. The word "many" is a borderline weasel word.

Pluto TV has a 24/7 This Old House streaming channel that I often find my way into as it makes for wonderful background entertainment while doing other things around the house. Alw…

Pine Street Market in Portland is a lot like what you envision. In typically Portland fashion it is a little on the fancy side and priced somewhere between fast food and pub fare b…

You're leaving out the cost of owning and powering a chest freezer which is not insignificant.

This may sound ridiculous but what I really want to try is an Almost Impossible burger. The flavor and texture of a regular Impossible burg was a bit off from a regular burger but …
