Yeah, it really looks like a case of “the first layer of administrative safety control failed, and another layer kicked in to prevent a dangerous scenario.”
Not exactly. Amperage is “amount of current”, ampacity is “ability to carry current”
It is! Here in the US, that’s the word used by the National Electric Code to talk about current carrying capacity
Yeah, legally that’s what it needs to do at that point in the system. if you want a solar system to be energized during an outage, you have to have what’s called a “Grid-forming” inverter (as opposed to grid-following) and it would likely need to connect up at the utility connection point
This particular type of home solar implementation runs into a scalability issue where each piece is hard-limited by the ampacity of the outlet its plugged into, so at a certain point it can only scale out to be plugged into more outlets and take up more space.
Also, having a system thay feeds into an outlet is quite scary, since the male side of the plug is energized. I get the convenience of this “plug and play” sort of device, but I’d much prefer to see something hardwired and enclosed.
It takes every path available, and with high enough voltage, more paths become available
Welcome to 2024 where we announce the possibility of an upcoming announcement.
When people are talked down to, they often dig in their heels due to an emotion called psychological reactance. The reactionary ape that still exists in every human feels challenged and that ape will not allow reason to stop it.
If you see such a reaction and allow yourself to believe “well that person was just an immature child”, you risk giving yourself license to keep talking down to people. Repeat ad nauseum.
It doesn’t matter that you’re objectively correct about the effect meat has on the biosphere if you just keep going around that circle, creating 0 new vegans every lap
Good on the devs for getting the balance in check ahead of the 1.0 release
Inclusive or
To expand a little bit - the ridges of your outer ear will attenuate certain frequencies of sound more than others depending on the height of the source relative to your head. Animals that don’t have these outer ear ridges can still find the source of a sound laterally since they have two ears, and tilting their head tilts the plane of their ears letting them get some vertical sound perception.
In the smarter every day vid on this topic, they had a blindfolded person point to the source of a sound (succeeded no problem), and then packed clay into the outer ear ridges to mess with that sound attenuation. The person was able to keep their lateral sound perception but the vertical was all over the place.
Even more braindead than that, they file it under “bad thing that happened during biden presidency”

This is the way. Plus they’re usually mesh so you can just toss them in the fridge with your produce and it stays breathable
