Do you mean big tech as in Facebook or Google ad services. In academia are their engineers and data scientists that prefer nice data over accurate data.

I would say in the long term efficiency will benefit every one more than handicapping systems to provide desired outcomes.

It sounds like your are reducing the efficiency of the model in the name of equality.

Who said anything about illegal? Is it illegal to put up up for sale signs in a white neighborhood? Is it illegal to claim the earth is 6000 years old from a pulpit?

If something is illegal it is illegal but that's not really useful or meaningful to this discussion.

I'm saying these algorithms are designed self optimize. you give them a goal and they try to achieve it most efficiently. If the goal is to sell property and the most efficient way to sell the property favors ads targeted white people then it's fine.

Are you saying that algorithms should include factors like race and age when determining credit scores and filtering job applications?

Because extra terrestrial radiation is capable of disrupting micro chip operations it is a commonly used scapegoat when incomplete information is available.

Oh well if everyone understands it I feel like a real dunce. Keep dreaming you dreams little buddy.

I would argue the excess capacity is exclusively made up of peaker plants. I'd be interested in where you got the terrible efficiency data from.

I wonder why the hydrogen economy doesn't exist? Hydrogen wasn't just invented.

Not really peaker plants use tried and true generation techniques and are just as efficient as main load plants. Our current grid provides reliable, consistent, and constant electricity.

Right so back to my original point.

Really? I wait with bated breath. The plant in this post clearly can't do what a gas turbine plant can.

Yeah I think that operations on the grid aren't microsecond time sensitive. There is absolutely no way to predict usage with that granularity. Even then if that is what you are looking for it would make more sense for the batteries to back stop the hydrogen plant rather than the windmills.

So why bother with batteries at all? hydrogen storage, conversion between states, and gas delivery systems are all made exponentially trickier by the small size of the molecules. That's not to say it can't be done but it isn't done currently at scale.

The problem with this scheme and all renewables is storage capacity. This project does not solve it. There are no realistic solutions to the energy density issue that don't involve long chains of carbon.

If you read the OPs supplemental post they are going to have an entirely redundant hydrogen gas turbine system waiting in the wings as back up. It's super practical I don't know why we don't do this everywhere.

Ahh so it will work until it doesn't work and for when it doesn't work we have this novel parallel generation system that is only for backup. It isn't practical for energy generation that's why it's the backup but it will work when we need it to. Can't see a single issue with that.
