Spain's renewables build-out has structurally decoupled its electricity prices from gas markets. Gas now sets the price in only 15% of hours, compared to 90% in Italy.

Countries that invested early in clean power are far less exposed to fossil fuel price shocks. Those that didn't now pay the price.

I’d imagine ‘scan your receipt’ barriers aren’t to stop shoplifters, they’re to ensure that everybody picks up their receipt after paying.

So that subsequent checks on the way out by a security guard aren’t stymied by a “I didn’t pick up the receipt” line.

It is true, though, that doing this will probably succeed in creating an AI that is equal in productivity and intellect to a Google engineer who works 60 hours per week.

Are there some resources on good Otel trace design?

Specifically I'm interested in how to model advanced use cases like streaming, multi-thread processing, UI application sessions etc.
