🔗 Why did renewables become so cheap so fast?
Fossil fuels dominate the global power supply because until very recently electricity from fossil fuels was the cheapest. This has changed dramatically. In most places power from new renewables is now cheaper than new fossil fuels.
Fascinating read. -
🔗 The Revenge of the Hot Water Bottle
Imagine a personal heating system that works indoors as well as outdoors, can be taken anywhere, requires little energy, and is independent of any infrastructure. It exists – and is hundreds of years old.
Reminds me I should use my yutanpo more. But truth be told, Sophie always sleeps by me feet, so I already have a Sophie-tanpo. -
🔗 How we changed our roof and cut 1.5 tons of CO2e.
Since Oct 01, 2021 we have saved 2,300 kwh, equivalent to 720 kg CO2e (assuming a 0.3g of CO2e per Kwh of heating gas). At current trend, we would save 5,200 kwh, equivalent to 1,600 kg CO2e until Apr 15, 2022. To put that number in perspective, a French emits about 9,000 kg of CO2e per year. Not bad for a roof.
Fascinating how much easier we can cut with upgrades to the house that reduce carbon and improve comfort. Beautiful roof, too. -
🔗 A Recipe to Your Own Home-Coded Personal Website
The personal web, however, lets you authentically share the stuff you like, and customize your own page to your liking, from the usual header and icon to the background and layout and content!
It's kind of like a home-made website, like a home-made meal instead of getting it store-bought and ready to consume. There's a sort of joy in getting to manually create the site of your own where you have the freedom to add anything you want onto it, much like a homemade meal has that special touch to it.Exactly. More like this please. -
🔗 The Old Internet Shows Signs of Quietly Coming Back
Despite the new gatekeepers' best efforts, the old Internet never completely disappeared. Personal websites created by individuals that have always been the meat of the old Internet are still around. They are still about exploration, innovation, fun, and all the rest.
