Kommentar i TU som gir god oversikt Sammenligningen av Danmark/Tyskland med Spania mangler litt. Danmark kan ha veldig høy sol/vind-andel da de er bittesmå og bare rir på det norsk-svenske og kontinentaleuropeiske kraftnettene. Tyskland har tilgang på norsk vannkraft og mye kull Tyskland har forøvrig mer vind, og sol er noe verre når det kommer til sammenfallende produksjonsmønster

@roaringmeows Just wanted to say that these are still appreciated and I personally actually use the information as a basis for discussion in my professional setting sometimes. Even if there are no regular discussions around them here yet, I watch out for any comments.

The pursuit of truth as an autistic special interest is actually a really important articulation. For most of my life I was furious at the lack of attention, let alone rigor, most people had for pursuing truth. I eventually got over it but it wasnt until very recently I realized most people care about the truth as much as I care about the new iPhone, at which point things started to make a lot more sense. I do not pay attention to the latest tech. It’s not important to me. When i do need to pay attention, I “trust the experts” (YouTube reviewers etc). When the “experts” change their minds, I dont make a big stink about it. I just go along with it. This is because a phone is a means to the end of having a good life, and a very minor aspect of it. “Good enough” is good enough. Further, I think I’m better than Android users because the things i value in a phone, iPhone does better. Some people take this superiority *really* seriously. I don’t. But it does exist. (Android users also feel superior, because the things they value, android does better; the value of the phones is subjective based on one’s pre-existing values) This is how most people feel about ideas, meta narratives, etc. They do not care what is true because these things are all means to the end of having a good life. Most narratives are true enough that people just pick the one that is most convenient. It will be some combination of what their friends believe, what ethics they naturally prioritize (ex agreeable people prioritize compassion thus are more likely to be libs), what restrictions it applies to them, etc Those of us who “pursue the truth” actually follow our innate base preferences in the same way, believe it or not. We pursue the truth because we find it fun. And or we would not respect ourselves if we allowed our comforts to get in the way of truth. It is precisely our innate lower interest in social status, social relationships, popularity, etc and our higher interest in integrity, accuracy, and complex thought that causes us to “pursue truth” despite it’s negative consequences (the consequences dont hurt as much for us as they hurt for most people). Awareness of this fact should help you have some grace and be less irritated by the epistomology of normies. But it also elucidates a very important future state: People will stop believing retarded shit as soon as believing that retarded shit causes them more pain than not believing it. And that will happen automatically. The problem with falsehood is that it will eventually kill you. In an abundant world with significant momentum from centuries of truth (Christianity and Christian ethics), that is not obvious. But as more and more deviate from these well-tested ideas, that momentum dwindles, and the consequences of falsehood arise. And as soon as that happens, people will change. When the music stops, people will look for a seat. You do not need to do anything but sit around and be correct and use the truth to build a phenomenal life. Eventually, everyone will come asking you how you did it.

@MichaelAArouet Same in Japan by the way. Less hackable, demands less maintenance and security infrastructure. Not saying it is definitely the way but there are compelling arguments for using fax in 2024

Spending few days in Germany. My daughter has just completed an internship at a clinic here. She tells me that German clinics and hospitals really still communicate via fax machines with each other. WTF happened to this country?

The new Dutch government is essentially to bin the green agenda entirely: Cuts to farming gone. Fuel taxes cut. Subsidies for heat pumps and insulation gone. Electric car subsidies cancelled. 4 new Nuclear plants. They're tossing the whole thing in the trash.

@JonathanShedler Great thread - all of the stuff you post is valuable, but my favourite kind is when it's applicable and concrete, like here.

Asking questions is rarely the most helpful way for a therapist to proceed If our goal is to invite the patient’s thoughts, feelings, curiosity, and self-reflection, there is a better way 🧵

@undodilligence @recht_haltsam Stimme dir da zu - wobei die Anzahl und die Schwere der Straftaten vermutlich jeweils einer Pareto-Verteilung folgen, sodass einige wenige deutlich mehr als 3 pro Jahr begehen. Wenn man von denen eine Menge erwischt, ist schon genug getan.

@QueueShort @recht_haltsam deutlich weniger als 10% gesenkt und das legt die polizeilich erfassten Straftaten zugrunde. Abgesehen von Menschen, die wirklich sehr häufig oder sehr schwerwiegende Taten begehen, lohnt sich das nicht und selbst dort ist die Verhältnismäßigkeit oft eher fragwürdig.

question for people like me—whose fatal flaw is to try to do too many things at once, bc you're so excited by different things, and you actually end up doing a decent job at all of them, but not a great job at any one thing—did you ever change? or did you stay that way forever?

@volsupply Det argumentet dukker stadig opp. Jeg vil argumentere at det også er mulig å kutte i kategorien "Andre", som stort sett er "gode formål" (les ting politikerne elsker å gi penger til). Alt dette er ikke nødvendig for å bygge et godt samfunn. En trenger ikke bare ta fra de fattige.

@shagbark_hick @tonyapc42 I think this statement contains everything that needs to be unpacked. Think about in how what ways this may be wrong and you may have the pointer to the psychological blocks you intuited so well in your main tweet. You really laid it all out here.

@tonyapc42 Right, and this is the only master that makes sense to me. If I try to ford a flooded river, it may sweep me away and kill me. It is just and violent and unmitigated in its truth. If a man decides to humiliate me, I know he is being cruel. Nature is not capable of cruelty.

Maybe I am stuck in survival mode. The fundamental principle on which my ideas rest is that one should live so cheaply that they will never be functionally forced to work. Expensive ways of life can easily reduce a man to begging and groveling to keep his job. Hence my scornful attitude towards automobiles and high-cost housing. The surest way to prevent being reduced to boylike servitude to one's boss or supervisor is to live in a sub-$50k house with no car. Such a life should be built at practically any cost -- unless one is warm to the idea of possibly being cornered into making an idol of one's boss. And additionally, the ideal is to establish one's home in a place with minimal property taxes and no building codes, to evade subservience to the tax-man or the codes officer. But are these fates so bad? Am I merely neurotic? Is my drive to avoid subservience overkill -- or even a mental illness? Or -- are such fates even very likely? Could the humility etched into serving one's boss as if you were his 12-year-old son be spiritually constructive? Is there something I am missing? It certainly seems that virtually every man I know is almost thoughtlessly comfortable with asking another grown man for a day off and elbowing his way into promotions as he goes further into debt. Some even believe this is the path to power: accepting powerlessness before one's higher-ups in order to secure a check. My only experience with submission to authority has been found in interactions with the police as a homeless vagabond and in following orders in the military. The threat of the brig and the baton have been the only tools by which I've ever been compelled to submit to another man's rule. Maybe, owing to this, I have overcorrected, and have developed a bad habit of descending into sputtering rage over what most consider to be trivial matters. Perhaps I should chill out and return to my former status as a jolly vagabond -- and entirely cease to comment on these matters, at least for a time. Walking, writing, camping, eating beans, leaving these worldly matters well enough alone. Embracing my bardic vocation with a sense of detachment from the world, the pursuit of poetry and divinity is probably more than enough to keep me busy. Whenever I've lived this sort of life before, it has protected me from sputtering rage and white-knuckle bouts of nervous tooth-gritting.

@KMRystad Er vel litt sært å vrake dem, da de fungerer helt fint 10 av 12 mnd. i året. Men latterlig idiotiske valg, vi må slutte å stemme på dumme mennesker som ikke klarer å regne ut en så enkel prognose som rekkevidde engang.
