@DavidOsmond8 @OpenNem Got it, thanks!

[Dennis Hotson @dennishotson]

@DavidOsmond8 @OpenNem Or do you pick the scale factor based on actual consumption rather than max generation capacity?

[Dennis Hotson @dennishotson]

@DavidOsmond8 @OpenNem Hi David, I've been enjoying your simulations each week :) one question about how the scaling works.. is it that the simulation shows what would happen if wind/solar etc max capacity was 3~4x whatever the current max capacity is?

@anothercohen Pro tip: switch to the triple em-dash to confirm your humanity: ⸻

[Dennis Hotson @dennishotson]

@SchrodingrsBrat What are we thinking fellow emdash fans?
Switch to the double emdash? ⸺
Or go straight for the triple? ⸻

[Dennis Hotson @dennishotson]

Now that AI has ruined the emdash for punctuation enthusiasts like me... I'm thinking of switching to the double emdash (⸺) and worst case, fellow humans, there's always the triple: ⸻

@renew_economy @TristanEdis Btw, do you have any more information on typical nuclear build costs? I'd be keen to see more analysis of this component. The Frontier Economics report estimates a $10k/kw nuclear capital cost. Do you have any more detail about your estimate?

[Dennis Hotson @dennishotson]

@renew_economy Thanks for the analysis @TristanEdis. It seems to me like most shortcomings in the Frontier Economics methodology is because they're replicating AEMOs ISP, warts and all. To be honest, I thought that's not a bad way to make a robust comparison?

I've been trying to wrap my head around the energy debate in Australia.
I found the reporting and opinion online to be all-over-the-place.

So, I went and read all the reports and had a go at summarising my understanding—keen to hear feedback!

@Faluk_ @StarStable This is wonderful. I approve. 😁🐴

@magnetikonline @awscloud Heh I've got a g4dn.xlarge in Sydney that I use as a cloud gaming PC. Works pretty great already—but yeah, I'd be tempted to move it just for the 2-5ms gain 😆 However, it looks like Melbourne doesn't have these GPU instance types just yet..

@benschwarz Honestly, I probably should've just gone with Vercel or Imgix 😆 ..but I'm also picky about the image quality. Some services I tried overcompressed a little for my taste — good for general web use, but less good for photography in my opinion!

@benschwarz I ended up making my own with just the features I need for my photo blog: https://t.co/y4TXuZwDVi

e.g. https://t.co/P6RWMJr2kj

Handles resizing + width and dpr client hints + WebP or AVIF when possible.

It's ~200 lines of JS using express and sharp.

@aaronmoodie I'm in! Honestly, I'm still hanging out for a Rdio reboot. :)

@waferbaby @poisontofu My goto is: outline: 1px solid gold 😆

@waxpancake These are wonderful—thank you for sharing!

[Dennis Hotson @dennishotson]
