The proponents of "green" energy always point to the early wins
Considering the price developments, that seems rather nonsensical. Why point out the early things that were accomplished at very high price? Why not point out the recent installations with vastly lower costs? Nobody sane would do the former.
Also, the EC is what keeps California and NY from ganging up on all the other states.
And it does that by allowing *other* states to gang up on California and NY. Is that more acceptable for some reason?
All of which means California gets to dominate affairs in the US house of representatives and presidential elections out of proportion to their electorate.
Funny, you've just that the EC prevents that? Make up your mind!

Going by the "nationwide average" would mean other states are also under appointed.
That is obviously true, but how does that negate the claim about California (that in itself was in response to another claim about California, not about any other state)?
Considering the differing geographic conditions of US states, your argument is easily proven flawed. Even just mere geography introduces viability differences for various power sources, before politics comes into it. So even if it is true that '"red" states that are leading in renewable power generation', it doesn't really mean anything when it comes to how politics changes the outcome because the baseline is uneven to begin with.
C compilers are not built for that (aside from perhaps GCC, which is more enlightened in this respect), but I have no problems with doing that to my Lisp compilers. Also, just because you're targeting higher-level programming does't mean you're targeting people who don't understand programming. Maybe you simply want to make things easier for yourself? The bigger the problem you're solving is, the more likely it is that raising the level of abstraction will save you a lot of work.
Being responsible for maintaining the end result DOES make me the consumer, which means I do have a vested interest in a tool that creates a readable and maintainable product.
You're the guy who maintains C programs by editing binaries in a hex editor?
Which only ever works properly if the problem you are working on is one of the few things the toolchain author was able to predict in advance (so again, possibly usable for CRUD coding). Better to just write the code yourself the first time around than risk getting "locked in" to a toolchain that is going to cost you more in the long run than you get from the short-term benefits.
I actually happen to use Lisp macros properly, thank you.
You know what happens when you let "AI" do the "heavy lifting" of writing code? You wind up with crap like Dreamweaver's garbage HTML code...
And when you let a compiler generate assembly, you end up with something an assembly programmer might regard as crap as well. But since you're not the consumer of the result, who cares?
It's going to produce nothing but non-performant, fragile, unmaintainable garbage.
Yep, and the solution is to re-generate the results from the inputs. Just like with any other toolchain.

t's not like social media is where a sizeable amount of people get their information regarding society and politics.
I think you misspelled "disinformation"...
You *are* aware that comment trains are not *actual* trains, aren't you?
1.21 Googlewatts.
Sounds like an unreasonable expectation. Who wouldn't expect an Odo-meter to show changeling results?
In fact, I'll bet you can't figure out what machine code a simple line of JS code turns into either.
Of course you can't, nobody can - feedback-based inlining and optimization make it impossible without inspection tools.
Germany's energy looks cleaner, because someone else is burning extra coal.
Why "extra" coal? There's actually 20% less of it being burned.

If your economy is inextricably dependent on gasoline, coal and beef sales, it *deserves* to collapse.
everywhere there implemented
What?
Because stating that renewables are not currently competitive...
...is total bullshit in 2019. It will be even more bullshit in 2020, 2021, 2022...you get it.
They ended up paying more and getting less [texaspolicy.com].

Storage ... Dependent on Rare Earth Metals Controlled by Chinese
Obvious facepalm, unless you're counting on huge banks of NiMH batteries, which is unlikely to happen.
And who the fuck receives $775 of subsidies per 1 MWh of solar production? What kind of idiocy is that? Are those numbers from 1998 or what?
People of Outside?

Pretty high, I'd say, since in both cases you have an understanding of your needs, i.e., what it should be doing.
Then you update your generator, obviously. That's the only systematic approach.

Ironically Millennials are in a much better position than you aging dinosaur-juice boomers and your coal mines and dollar store greeters
That's kind of obvious considering their lifespans.
Yellow as a race has long been considered inappropriate.
Careful with that phrasing!
Of course not, unless Tesla stopped making all other vehicles this year.
You realize the soil is radioactive on Mars right?
You realize the soil is radioactive on Earth, right?
And that with the lack of atmosphere there it's also flooded with UV radiation from the sun?
Yes, that - not the 610 Pa average pressure - is what will prevent you from sunbathing on the beach on Mars.
Seriously, the other reasons for having something between your skin and the Martian environment make the UV thingy kind of irrelevant.
