I've republished my three favourite articles form my substack onto NOSTR

Two sided markets on NOSTR

I explore the economics of platform markets and how you might leverage it on NOSTR specifically

Prediction in an uncertain world

I unpick a nuance btween two types of probability and how you can use this difference to understand uncertainty

Residential solar and reliability risk

I describe a risk implied by increasing rooftop solar generation.

After researching manufacturing in Australia for a few weeks I have concluded that for all the politicians dreams of a technology revolution here, it's not happening. Greatest barrier is energy, and energy policy looks beyond grim. America will have a manufacturing resurgence, but we should focus our efforts on an energy resurgence. Nuclear (private investment, fuck the state), de-regulation, microgrids, bitcoin.

I can't believe this, absolutely mind blown I posted an article just before, and a bot on NOSTR automatically cross posted it to stackr news under my NPUB (which i use for stackr too)

Rooftop solar generation is pretty epic, but it imposes a new consideration for grid operators, engineers, and economists to find solutions for. The rules of physics are harsh and unyielding, and they say your neighbours exporting power can have an adverse effect on your power supply, and your home devices. I wrote a quick article exploring how this emerges over on Substack

An emerging curiosity - residential solar arrays and reliability risk

It’s a Saturday afternoon, you’re settling in for a Netflix binge, you sink into the couch, and tell Siri to turn the TV on.

"I need to clean up my diet" I think, knowing full well i'm slamming a pack of IPAs this afternoon
