klysm··on The US added a record 20.2 GWh of battery storage in just 3 months
Batteries are amazing for covering ancillary services. Once that market saturates, they move into arb. CAISO is also a capacity market, so you get paid for simply existing
klysm··on Claude Duet is the first personal-assistant-type harness that feels useful
I’ll believe them when they put the lethal trifecta with their own skin in the game
klysm··on UUIDv7: Timestamps aren’t time-ordered and other oddities
I don’t agree with the advice that it should be a public facing ID - that depends on the application
klysm··on Fable 5.1 Solves the Cyphral Distich, a 370-year-old cipher
This is funny because I regularly run into Claude claiming it is fatigued
klysm··on Claude Fable 5.1 and Claude Mythos 5.1
Run more agents!
klysm··on Black lung rates in Appalachia are high as the 1970s
It isn’t, but the whole night thing is a bit of a problem and storage isn’t there yet at grid scale, but it’s coming.
klysm··on Wind and solar overtake fossil fuels in Germany for the first time
Thankfully this is one of the easiest limitations to get around technically. Grid forming inverters and inertia markets make this pretty straightforward to solve IMO. Storage is the key thing we need to solve
klysm··on Designing and assembling my first PCB
Nothing competes with JLC but circuit hub isn’t terrible
klysm··on Designing and assembling my first PCB
This and sheet metal manufacturing from Oshcut have been game changers for me
klysm··on The early History of the Singular Value Decomposition (1993) [pdf]
Not true, you can make the R G and B points far enough out to capture the entire human gamut
klysm··on Abnormal Response to Anthropic Lawsuit
Maybe they wired up a agent to file lawsuits
klysm··on Home made GPU escalated quickly [video]
I always leave a 0 ohm DNP on any TX/RX line.
klysm··on A 2048-spin bulk acoustic wave Ising machine for number partitioning and Sudoku
I’ve been working with MIP solvers a lot at work recently, and the depth of black magic is so deep it’s hard to comprehend. Even after the presolve there are so many tradeoffs and structures to exploit it’s hard to understand the whole system
klysm··on OpenPrinter
I’ll believe this when I see it on GitHub - rooting for them
klysm··on Factories are just rooms
I agree with your premise, but I think it’s also important to reconcile this with the idea that nothing is simple. Everything that’s made is usually much more complex than it appears in the surface
klysm··on Is it time for a new Embedded Linux build system?
I just use Debian these days
klysm··on Texas grid flags risks as data centers, crypto sites fail voltage tests
ERCOT operates under a “connect and manage” interconnection philosophy. This means things can actually get built quickly (unlike other ISOs), but some management is required.

Of course, there are some downsides to this approach, but overall I think it’s a superior. Just look at renewable and battery penetration compared to other ISOs.

klysm··on The perils of UUID primary keys in SQLite
Indexes?
klysm··on PgQue: Zero-Bloat Postgres Queue
What kind of throughput are we talking about?
klysm··on Amazon is adding a fuel surcharge to fees it collects from third-party sellers
Maybe the technical requirements at the time were a good excuse but as soon as you demonstrate the market will tolerate that why on earth would you remove it?
klysm··on Astral to Join OpenAI
Damnit I was really rooting for uv :(
klysm··on XML Is a Cheap DSL
I hate everything about XML. I have lost weeks of my life to fixing whitespace sensitive bugs
klysm··on Qatar helium shutdown puts chip supply chain on a two-week clock
Yes but think of the shareholders! And that doesn’t show up nicely on a spreadsheet does it?
klysm··on Temporal: A nine-year journey to fix time in JavaScript
Bravo to the designers of this library. It’s well implemented and I’ve been using the poly fill for years now
klysm··on NRC issues first commercial reactor construction approval in 10 years [pdf]
I’m not seeing HVDC tech on the interconnection queue. The baseline power problem isn’t going away any time soon.

Nuclear just doesn’t go on standby, that’s the point.

klysm··on NRC issues first commercial reactor construction approval in 10 years [pdf]
Grids need reliability. Battery tech is not close to providing long enough durations to fulfill load with just renewables. I would much rather have nukes than natural gas filling that role.
klysm··on Microgpt explained interactively
I expect this kind of counter signaling to become more common in the coming years.
klysm··on Claws are now a new layer on top of LLM agents
Little too lexically close to girth
klysm··on Testing Postgres race conditions with synchronization barriers
Seems like a good way to materialize the conflict.
klysm··on Show HN: 2D Coulomb Gas Simulator
Quick submit a level 10 CVE DOS vuln!
