@Hankey_Chief @sjarichards @LoftusSteve The Rolls Royce desig is too large for data centers. They make the maximise size that is possible to transport in many parts rather then the smallest economics size.

This is often presented as a silver bullet - but it’s an illusion. The link is the reality of a majority renewables system. Our civilisation depends on us having electricity every minute, of every hour, of every day. And for that you always need to have sufficient firm capacity -gas - to cover days, weeks, of no wind and no sun. One way or another, this has to be paid for. The real way you break the link? A clean power source that doesn’t require gas backup: nuclear.

@IanStockport @sjarichards @LoftusSteve Sure, but we have to work within the constraints of what we have. I doubt power demand is high enough to warrant enough nuclear plants to generate the scale needed to really lower costs. Maybe SMRs will do this but that remains to be seen

@Hankey_Chief @sjarichards @LoftusSteve That because we premit people who hate nuclear power to increase the cost of building nuclear power stations and we have a planning system the rewards creating paperwork.

@Person012345 Yeah that’s already been explained to me in the replies… however, why can’t we produce our own natural gas in the UK??…

@DarrenBar88 If you think that’s good pay for a CEO, why dint you go and pitch to Tesco your skills? They can save several million on their wage bill which you could then use to reduce food prices!

I guess a lot of people don’t understand that someone’s productivity can be over 10x higher than someone else’s, and that the work is such that it won’t be done without a proportionate incentive.

@EllroyLove @Brewgaloo_ I think he’s actually encouraging you to report them in the second paragraph. He just doesn’t want to make the implication himself that they’re a criminal activity.

Women bus and train drivers in Boston earn less than men, even in a unionized work place where conditions are all identical. It is difficult to think of this as being due to anything other than different preferences. Equalizing wages would make us worse off. 1/

We have now ended up in the absurd situation of incentivising virulently homophobic men from the developing world to pretend to be gay. And unless you can get them to break (like in the case below), it's very difficult to deny them.
