Battery storage in ERCOT is now routinely providing 10%-20% of power required by the Texas grid during times of peak demand. Five years ago, we had no batteries in ERCOT. The next 5 years are going to be nuts.

Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez’s condemnation of the U.S. and Israel’s attack on Iran initially made him an outlier in Europe. Now everyone wants in. politico.eu/article/spain-…

Spain's renewables build-out has structurally decoupled its electricity prices from gas markets. Gas now sets the price in only 15% of hours, compared to 90% in Italy. Countries that invested early in clean power are far less exposed to fossil fuel price shocks.

A power outage at Denver International Airport impacted operations for a couple of hours on Wednesday morning and prompted the FAA to ground flights. According to witness accounts from inside the airport, passengers were not allowed to board waiting planes, and power outages were impacting bathroom services.

This is totally insane. A war correspondent just received death threats from online gamblers who wanted him to change his reporting on an Iranian missile strike so they could collect a payout. One bettor had $900,000 riding on the outcome. He told the journalist he knew where he lived and who his family members were.  This is what prediction markets on life and death actually look like in practice. This is exactly why I introduced the DEATH BETS Act with Senator @AdamSchiff. The DEATH BETS Act would ban contracts on assassinations, deaths of world leaders, and acts of war on platforms like Polymarket. This story shows exactly why that matters.  When you let people place million-dollar bets on whether a missile kills someone, you create a financial incentive to threaten journalists, manipulate information, and profit from human suffering. washingtonpost.com/technology/202…

Two-thirds of datacenter power requests 'vanish' the moment utilities ask for money per WoodMack podcast "Why 66% of interconnection requests disappear when utilities require long-term contracts and financial deposits (spoiler: hyperscalers were rationally preserving their place in line when it was essentially free)"

After much reflection, I have decided to resign from my position as Director of the National Counterterrorism Center, effective today. I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran. Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby. It has been an honor serving under @POTUS and @DNIGabbard and leading the professionals at NCTC. May God bless America.

My last contact with Mr. Witkoff was prior to his employer's decision to kill diplomacy with another illegal military attack on Iran. Any claim to the contrary appears geared solely to mislead oil traders and the public.

DHS targeting pro-Palestinian speakers for deportation "was unconstitutional, abhorrent to a society that cherishes free speech," and "must never happen again," writes Judge Young (Reagan appointee).

Jorge Pederson was one of the victims of the shooting on West 6th this month. When my editor asked me to write his remembrance, I did not expect to laugh when speaking with his loved. But our talks were full of laughter. It's the kind of guy he was. kut.org/austin/2026-03…

Crazy long wait times at @AustinAirport. The line is out the door and people tell our crew there that they’re missing flights left and right. Leave early if you’re flying today! 🎥:@avabrendgord_tv

My best tip for anyone trying to get back into reading is to remember that you can read books to avoid other responsibilities in your life, and it can become a vice if you play your cards right.

Colourized version of my grandmother & her family. She is the last one living amongst all of them. She sits near her father on the left. She wanted me to keep these for my children to know where my kids come from. A long ways from igloo to modern society. Her dad built the igloo
