It’s just a shame we’re wasting more electrical power than required by a country such as Argentina on “flipping coins”… https://twitter.com/i/web/status/1641845752342118403

Best part is actually the comment section 😄 of course it won’t; because in academic research you won’t succeed in things such as gaslighting a critical audience into believing that “actually on the grid” can somehow pass as “off-grid” 😅

Here’s a crazy thought; how about we just stop “flipping coins”? It’s been done before and proven effective: https://www.cell.com/patterns/pdf/S2666-3899(22)00265-3.pdf

Thought provoking preprint (not yet passed peer review) on how miners may be driving up electricity costs in Texas. It argues miners are putting the stress where it hurts on an already congested grid (so a relatively small amount of power demand can have big consequences).
