PhD student at OSU AEDE. I study AFOLU emissions reduction schemes and want to study energy. Mostly I used Twitter for politics and space and war stuff, I figure this will be much the same ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.

my $0.02 is that there’s widespread fatalism on here about democrats’ ability to set media narratives but there is no faster way to shift the focus to trump also being old than for biden to say he’s too old for run and that it’s time for a younger generation to step forward

@kenwhite.bsky.social can I ask that serious trouble please cover the ways the legal system is capable of protecting juries witnesses and judges? Someone is gonna get killed. Seems like that *should* make a custodial sentence more likely but I confess I can’t directly connect those dots.

Hey energysky, I’m working on a research project and need to associate geographic data with nerc subregions—does anybody happen to have a file which associates county- or cbsa-level fips codes to a relevant nerc region? Even if it’s rough, this is a wheel I’d prefer to not reinvent!

Can someone help me energysky? This WSJ piece attacking EVs looks fishy, but I don't understand the various technical definitions (CAFE, MPGe) well enough to refute it. I'm in the process of arguing with my (generally reasonable) dad that emissions from EVs are not basically the same as hybrids.
