An interesting example of how a non-grid operator can achieve a (temporary) grid connection using a battery. Once the grid operator has made the permanent connections, the battery can be used elsewhere.
A temporary variant on contestable build that can be scaled further?

Provincie Noord-Holland helpt woningbouw met oplossing netcongestie
De provincie Noord-Holland stelt € 150.000 beschikbaar aan Woningcorporatie Parteon om de nieuwbouwwoningen aan de D. Doniastraat in Zaandam eerder op te kunnen leveren aan de bewoners.

I am unsurprised at the breakdown so far:

Granted, the plethora of Chromia are splitting the vote, but even added together it’s not close.
Also, this is not scientific and may not reference reality. …

Vanishing Signatures, Orbit Closure, and the Converse of the Holant Theorem
Valiant's Holant theorem is a powerful tool for algorithms and reductions for counting problems. It states that if two sets $\mathcal{F}$ and $\mathcal{G}$ of tensors (a.k.a. constraint functions or signatures) are related by a \emph{holographic transformation}, then $\mathcal{F}$ and $\mathcal{G}$ are \emph{Holant-indistinguishable}, i.e., every tensor network using tensors from $\mathcal{F}$, resp. from $\mathcal{G}$, contracts to the same value. Xia (ICALP 2010) conjectured the converse of t…

In elementary school, one of my classmates was hit by a car on his bicycle. He must have been about 9. His head went through the windshield.
He was fine.
The windshield was not fine. His helmet was not fine. The teacher had him bring in his mangled helmet to show the whole class. Nobody had to tell us he’d be dead if it weren’t for the helmet. It was obvious.
I still remember this vividly 40 years later.
I wear a helmet.

Still getting replies from the radical helmet deniers (and blocking them), amazing stuff.
It's basically like climate change deniers—including the same type of websites that are full of biased "science" tailored to support their argument that "helmets are actually worse".
Please get a life and leave me alone.

"But I personally never had a traumatic head injury and I'm not wearing a helmet. Therefore the logical conclusion is that helmets do not prevent traumatic head injury."
I have a traumatic logic injury now.

What’s it with Dutch people trying to explain to me that they never hit their skulls on the pavement while riding a bicycle because they’re somehow superior at riding them and therefore don’t need a helmet.
Occam’s razor:
Option 1. An entire nation is magically superior in bicycle riding than anyone else on Earth and never has potholes, train track or slippery roads.
Option 2. The government tried to get more people to bike (a good thing) and for decades downplayed the inherent risks (not a good thing), and now people actually believe that “good infrastructure is just as good as helmets”.
