OpenAI’s New ChatGPT Agent Tries to Do It All
It’s a PowerPoint generator! It’s a date-night planner! It’s … another agent from OpenAI.

Dynamic #EV charging prices, following the spot market, and available to all - including direct payment with bank or credit card, without ‘fees’. A big ‘Bravo!’ for enercity and EV-Pay for showing what is possible in Germany, despite all the ‘Eichrecht’ hurdles.

Stündlich wechselnde Ladepreise: Enercity und EV-Pay führen dynamische Ad-hoc-Preise ein - electrive.net
Der Strompreis am Spotmarkt schwankt, an Ladesäulen sind heute aber starre Festpreise die Regel. In Hannover ist das bald anders: Enercity und EV-Pay starten

"Zo neemt het gebruik van groene stroom minder snel toe dan verwacht, schrijft demissionair minister Hermans van Groene Groei en Klimaat (VVD) in een Kamerbrief.
Voornaamste oorzaak is dat de verduurzaming van de industrie moeizaam verloopt en fabrieken dus langer gebruik moeten maken van fossiele brandstoffen als olie, aardgas en steenkool."

Kabinet snoeit flink in plannen voor windenergie op de Noordzee
Na veel slecht nieuws over windenergie op zee stelt het demissionaire kabinet het streefdoel officieel naar beneden bij.

As usual we watched the "Stoertebekker" stage play at Ralswiek on Rügen Island. The stage setups and wardrobes were as awesome as always. They really try to improve on that every year and come up with clever mechanisms to transform the building for the various acts of the play. The script this year left room for desire ;) Nevertheless a happing worth attending

How Australian men's lifestyle publisher Man of Many is countering a decline in Google referral traffic, through a registration wall, podcasts, and newsletters (Alice Brooker/Press Gazette)

How lifestyle brand Man of Many has changed to counter falling Google traffic
Man of Many, an Australian digital lifestyle brand, has adopted a new 2.0 strategy involving a sign-in system and seen "record growth".

Rambo¹ ist die Geschichte eines aus dem verlorenen Vietnamkrieg zurückkehrenden Veteranen, den zu Hause niemand mehr haben will und von der Polizei² eingesperrt und gedemütigt wird – was letztlich dazu führt, daß er die ganzen „wir wollen hier keine Fremden“-Typen aufmischt.³
Werden heute in den USA Veteranen einfach so verhaftet, geht das anders aus – ist ja schließlich kein Action-Film.

Continued Rapid Radio Brightening of the Tidal Disruption Event AT2018hyz
We present ongoing radio observations of the tidal disruption event (TDE) AT2018hyz, which was first detected in the radio at 972 days after disruption, following multiple non-detections from earlier searches. The new observations presented here span approximately 1370-2160 days and 0.88-240 GHz. We find that the light curves continue to rise at all frequencies during this time period, following a power law of about F ~ t^3 (compared to F_nu ~ t^5.7 at 972-1400 days), and reaching a peak lumino…

I've spent most of today trying (and failing) to do something which seems as though it should be inherently simple: I've been trying to open an new popup window from #Clojurescript running in a browser, and give that window dynamically generated content.
My mental health really is rubbish today, but I'm not sure to what extent that's the problem and to what extent this …

Sometimes you look at a graph and think that a particular value seems a bit odd. Then you look at the other numbers and they seem off, too. At that point, you realise that the graph is not intended to clarify, but to obscure. On German #EV charging prices, Quartets and diesel.

Sometimes you look at a graph and think that a particular value seems a bit odd. Then you look at the other numbers and they seem off, too. At that point, you realise that the graph is not intended to clarify, but to obscure. Thank you, Felix Hamer, for drawing attention to this recent slide from BDEW Bundesverband der Energie- und Wasserwirtschaft e.V. The title suggests that EV charging would only cost the same as filling up a diesel or petrol car for the same distance in an 'Extremszenario…
