Total population is a pretty big difference as you go north, as is how well infrastructure is actually prepared for snow/ice and cold temperatures in general. I’ve been without power all day and have no doubt I’ll cross the 24-hour mark here in a handful of hours. Sent from ProtonMail Mobile

Electric prices on the Texas spot market are $9,000/MWh. Normally they are less than $15/MWh. During the summer months, Texas spot market prices have gone to zero because it has excess summertime wind turbine capacity. I suspect those are computer generated artificial prices, because there

In my humble but correct opinion one of the things which sabotages these efforts is an aversion to any solution which doesn't feel like it would work quickly and decisively (ask Bezos to offer a discount to anyone using IPv6 to order on Amazon???) I remember back in ~2003 on the Anti-Spam
