This explains it very nicely.
Renewables don't risk blackouts, said the media. But they did and they do. The physics are simple. And now, as blackouts in Spain strand people in elevators, jam traffic, and ground flights, it's clear that too little "inertia" due to excess solar resulted in system collapse.

They are “less predictable” and a sudden change on weather, production-consumption ratio or connection problem makes the network more susceptible to frequency oscillations that then cascades into a national blackout, affection other countries too because of the interconnection.

With the national Spanish blackout I just learnt something today. The hypothesis now is that could be due to the low inertia of renewables. Since solar and wind don’t provide this inertia is more difficult to maintain the frequency oscillations.
Before the outage hit, Spain was running its grid with very little dispatchable spinning generation, and therefore no much inertia. Solar PV/thermal + wind: ~78%.Nuclear: 11.5%.Co-generation: 5%.Gas-fired: ~3% (less than 1GW). Snapshot at 12.30pm local time (outage was 12.35pm)

The important sentence here: 'can run on a single RTX 4090 or a Mac with 32GB RAM' I'm rooting for them to have a nice AI in Europe.

After all we are doing this already with plants, modifying them, adding adaptations for surviving to climate change or pests. This adaptations in animals could be seen as something equivalent. A part from a good marketing strategy for the company with much bigger goals.

In this way they express similar characteristics although the underlying genes are totally different. In this case they mutated 10 genes related with their fur and fat metabolism using CRISPR. So “nothing new” although very interesting to see possible.

While you might think from reading the titles and looking at the pics that they added the genes of the woolly mammoth they didn’t. That would probably kill the embryos already. What they did was to mutate mice genes.

Been following @colossal for a while already. They want to de-extinct some animals. Bring back the woolly mammoth for example. Today my timeline is full with different articles on this “trial” with mice. There are cute and fluffy but there is a but.

They literally generate a new strand of DNA that they call “Xpandomer” that has more space between the nucleotides so can be read with more accuracy through Nanopore. For this they designed new nucleotides and enzymatic reactions that work together.

I mean, kind of the vibes I get in the middle of a Dutch conversation. The speed is cultural appropriation from Spanish.
Today I was sent the following cool demo:. Two AI agents on a phone call realize they’re both AI and switch to a superior audio signal ggwave

If everything feels chaotic and not orchestrated in the US there is a cognitive strategy for that.
Shock Doctrine, the OODA Loop, and the Cognitive Paralysis of a Nation. There’s a reason everything feels like chaos right now. It’s not an accident—it’s a strategy. What Trump and his enablers are doing is straight out of the Shock Doctrine playbook: create relentless crises,.

🎙️🧬 Gracias a @crestadelaonda por dejarme hablar un poquito de mi investigación en @MERLN_UM también. Fue una experiencia muy chula estar en la radio ☺️ y un esfuerzo para no emocionarme y empezar a contar mil cosas más. Como siempre mención a Elisabetta Avizzano la coautora 🎄

Today live at @crestadelaonda @rtve I was invited to talk about the Christmas tree made by 2-photon polymerisation done together with Elisabetta Avizzano at @MERLN_UM @MaastrichtU.
🎙️ Hoy además se ha pasado por La Cresta @AdrianSeiG el creador del árbol de Navidad más pequeño del mundo 🎄🎅🏻
