Amazing article and demos thank you. I’ve also been fascinated by what algorithms are driving elevators.
As someone often using destination dispatch, I am inclined to think after the elevator arrives, you get to the destination more quickly than RSR or LOOK because it’s optimised everyone to the same floor (less stopping)
So it may be a case of more waiting in the lobby but less in a claustrophobic box, which I’ll happily take
This is a repeat url, but ever more helpful to remind us UK does not 'depend' on natural gas, albeit wholesale prices are apparently still set by the price of it
The UK depends on natural gas as most people get heating and hot water at home from gas boilers.
As I type this comment your link also shows that 30% of electricity right now is being generated from gas turbines. So that's a hard dependency for electricity, too.
Lastly, as you mention gas prices also set the price of electricity so a spike in gas prices impacts everyone [1]
ok fair enough. i dont live in the uk, and when i'm there, I am in a 100% elec house. I forget the dependency of households on a direct gas connection.
+ 1. I just came across it a few months ago after getting fed up with Postman's unintuitive ever-changing UI, etc. So far so good. Easy to store bruno files in a repo to have a nice easy place to go to get test calls
Definitely. I've watched a company move its entire health care plan to a startup, buddy of the CEO, to help juice said startup's customer base for investors.
When the company were invited to a call to learn how their health plans had changed compared to the old provider (but after the contract was signed) - the startup 'would need more time to figure that out' .. you can imagine the deafening silence on that well-attended zoom call.
Very fun. I have a similar check list for thieves for my '75 land rover series 3.
I tried to have a friend 'steal' it out of my garage once - it didn't go very well.
