Are you maybe comparing cost of gas as fuel with total cost? We will have a short period of low gas prices because there is oversupply of LNG projects coming online but that can turnaround easily. Flips in geo politics and crisis are popping up all the time.
The government is turning a £55 gas price into £147 by adding an arbitrary carbon tax, and therefore making it look artificially more expensive than wind.
If we wanted to make an honest analysis here, we would say "gas is significantly less than expensive than the strike price agreed for wind, but some believe the externalities of gas generation could be signficant"
When you're trying to sell wind power to the public as a "cheaper" source of energy than fossil fuels, you've got to be honest with them if you want to win both hearts and minds.
Gas is cheaper, like-for-like.
We impose special taxes on gas, making it artificially more expensive, in order to manipulate the market into reducing use of fossil fuel.
There. That's all that needs to be said. If you're honest with people they're more likely to trust you, and join you in your endeavours.
The high cost of gas is entirely politically-driven, as Reform UK will prove when they take office in 2029.
Aircraft carriers and nuclear reactors are exactly not anything like internet. Huge physical engineering projects are like a huge jigsaw puzzle. Take one piece and picture is not complete. Internet is network, most physical thing to compare with is electric grid. But then again whole electric grid hums with one single frequency.
We're arguably almost there with a lot of modern cars having assists that help with stop-start traffic situations. Granted, these assists are priced out of reach for most drivers as they are generally only offered on the top-trim, but I expect to see them appear as standard one day.
You can't have worse example than Japan for managment.
They're whole auto industry is currently in jeopardy because of short term risk aversion and being too slow to move into EV segment.
Similar thing here. Also had feeling of pressure in frontal lobe and strange taste. Intensity changed based on how much fitness time I could fit in schedule.
Code can not be documentation by meer definition. Code is written in programming language and documentation in spoken language. So documentation has important function of explaining intention of code in non trivial sections. Of course you wont give explanation of CRUD actions or other patterns you are using but business rules get coded and people reading that code need to know where rules come from and what are expectations either directly in code or by reference. Otherwise you revert to finding origin of code in source control and related task if you are lucky to have that level of tracking.
That's not how quantum physics or evolution work. Saying that there is no brain sounds very deep and astounding but as most stuff said when you are high (on drugs or religion or ego) it all falls apart when you start connecting dots to make picture.
Wait a minute. Isn't Greece a democracy with government responsible to citizens?
Greece gov has been spending for decades on military and no one argued with that while credit cards worked.
That's a good question, is it? Are any other modern countries?
One of the things people have been laughing at the Greeks for is that they don't even have a Cadastre listing who owns what land. Apparently this is proof the Greeks are all lazy, tax-avoiding thieves. In Scotland they're trying to achieve the same thing as they only know who owns about a quarter of the country.
Unfortunately the very rich aristocrats who own this land have been trying to prevent it since apparently knowing who owns land is some dark secret they're worried about getting out. They've been writing articles, such as the one by the UK prime minister's father-in-law Lord Astor, comparing this compiling of a list of ownership to the behaviour of Mugabe in Zimbabwe.
So, are we living in democracies with government responsible to citizens? I'd say to a great degree we don't, and like many soldiers who fought in European wars last century I think it becomes clear that you have more in common with the ordinary people of other European nations than you do with the ones guiding you into wars, or continuations of the same via diplomacy or economic shock doctrines.
Of course it is a proof the Greeks are lazy, tax-avoiding thieves. They don't care about Cadastre. They're on the streets for their comfy government jobs and social benefits.
Please don't sell me that socialist BS. I live in ex-socialist country and there is always trash talk about elites, aristocrats and capitalism on our long coffee breaks but guess what? You know what those people cry for? Socialist dictators and God-All-Mighty state.
You can be socialist and selfish and still be in favour of a Cadastre, since you personally are unlikely to own the land. Lazy, selfish people should support knowing who owns all the land, because that tells you who to tax efficiently via a Land Value Tax. Unless they are lazy, selfish people who already know who own the land, because it's them that owns it. Which brings us back to powerful elites, which you think don't exist for some reason. Your ex-socialist state must have been an extreme outlier both then and now if it doesn't have them.
I'm not saying that Greeks are not in favour of a Cadastre. They probably think it is a great idea. Only problem is they are too lazy to implement it and too selfish to give power to non-lazy people who might then make them work.
Elites exist, it is not a mystery cloaked in enigma. Most of people on Earth could say I'm part of elite just for being European. But you are talking about powerful elites who work in mysterious ways to control all Greek people votes.
