I specifically dislike it’s comparison as a replacement for gas and ev vehicles. end users handling cryogenic fuels or handling fuels that could potentially be highly explosive don’t strike me as winners.

you’re changing the narrative somewhat with the caveat of ‘as storage for renewable surpluses’ - this is NOT what the hydrogen production that traditional petroleum companies are focused on; there is potential - especially if the hydrogen can be collected from the air, reducing the need for storage infrastructure and handling. But moving it around? Trucking it around lol? at cryogenic temps and pressures?

hard to justify with such very small energy density.

Hydrogen because it comes from oil.

and because it requires a large, centralized infrastructure they can control. if you could pull hydrogen out of the air cheaply, anywhere, they wouldn’t be in on hydrogen.

meanwhile it’s really a dead end anyway, barring leaps in fuel cell technology. who wants to deal with the pressures and infrastructure to move around cryogenic liquids?

People are already morons with gasoline, and they want to add pressure lol?

it’s a dead end, and a silly one. but big petroleum will use it to muddy the waters and keep pumping oil

that does seem like a better method of working through the "I JUST DON’T FUCKING KNOW YET"s

I love working on the edge of exploration, but also recognize it’s going to be a lot of dipping the toes in and seeing what the water is like before I can reliably predict these things. I’m fortunate that no one on my team does what I do, so, sometimes they just accept “will report back next week with an estimate based on actual research”.

also not getting ambushed with large hypotheticals beyond our actual tool chain support help but <shrug>

a true team player. prob mvp too.

story point numbers

how many different ways can I say “I simply don’t know yet?”

well give us a guess

could be one point… could be 50? I DON’T KNOW

well yeah but give it a guess anyway

ah yes the TempleOS zealots are prostyltizing again

ty!

the thing you realize as you get older is that the spine is holding the whole shitshow together, and you rely on it constantly. so when it’s fucked, everything is fucked.

I rust wasn’t too rave and dance

?

do no harm

you must be from a parallel timeline friendo. in this reality, google promised ‘don’t be evil’, then trashed that.

I remember those days, lived through them.

it doesn’t change the crux; you turned it on briefly and supposed can identify which one it was because it got HOT. this would not occur with LED lighting; only incandescent would get warm enough fast enough to maaaaybe work in this setting.

DO NO HARM is the oath medical professionals take, aka they hippocratic oath. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hippocratic_Oath

actually not really - hot specifies HOT; if it were room temp, warm, warmer than another that sat unused - sure. but you’re only flipping it on for a short time. HOT?

it’s pedantic, but parsing is important here because some HR shitwad decided these silly stupid games were a valid hiring method on filtering pedants apparently

What happened? I blacked out.

typical gate guards :D

heh, easy decision to cut a lot of time signing shit out of her life.

I feel bad for the kid in first grade who’s like “I’m Bobby, Bobby Laxwhanxijontongsilvalessbronchongamonson”

I met a soldier who’s last name was too long to fit on a nametape. They asked if he could shorten it and he chose X instead. iirc he was Indonesian or Thai…

this is why we need to educate people. it does require a certain level of trust in the system to accept a shot will prevent your kid from dying of measles or whooping cough. a system that also conducted the heinous Tuskegee Syphilis Study, then never held those same criminals or the decision makers accountable for their crimes.

governments do thousands of things; not every single one is predicated on evil intentions, many, probably most, are for the good of their people. think running water and sewage. think power and roads.

sometimes they go fuckbrained. which is why we need whistleblowers, accountability, CONSEQUENCES, etc.

yeah silly games for bored hiring managers

note the premise specifies HOT.

none of my LED bulbs get hot even after hours. they do warm up from ‘cold’ but HOT?

ymmv.

if the bulb is hot

if hot they’re using out of date lighting, who the fuck uses incandescent bulbs this far into the 21st century? they have failed their interview with me.

facefuck.
