Musk is Punking the Bots & Haters

This tweet is fascinating:

If I’m reading this correctly, Elon Musk is actually using the current hatred towards him to identify/trap the bots & spammers. It’s as if he has setup an entire focused technical team to improve their software, counting on the usual suspects to act … like themselves. And most on Twitter probably don’t even get how their own unbridled hatred is being used against them. It’s a digital version of the ultimate wasp trap!

Honey, I Finished the Internet

Alarm bells, not sleigh bells, should be ringing in Alberta. Saskatchewan, too.

Pipeline Online column on Alberta’s two electrical grid alerts this past week. And it’s not even really cold there yet.

As evidenced twice this past week, the electrical grid can barely handle the demand we have, now, before we switch most of our transportation system to electric vehicles. What happens when half our cars and trucks are EVs? Then three-quarters? What happens when the wind doesn’t blow then? No one goes to work?

When will the other media take notice? When will they start to question this mad rush to wind and solar, and total adoption of electric vehicles? When will someone else in the Saskatchewan media declare “The emperor has no clothes?”
