About me.
I never knew my birth parents. There was a car accident. My birth mother was incinerated, and I only survived because her smoking carcass had formed a protective cocoon of slaughtered human effluence. A Belgian man and his fifteen year-old love slave were looting the accident scene, and came across a blood soaked baby, moi. They raised me to be evil. You know, that old chestnut.

The details of my life are quite inconsequential... very well, where do I begin? My father was a relentlessly self-improving boulangerie owner from Belgium with low grade narcolepsy and a penchant for buggery. My mother was a fifteen year old French prostitute named Chloe with webbed feet. My father would womanize, he would drink. He would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Sometimes he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament. My childhood was typical. Summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring we'd make meat helmets. When I was insolent I was placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds- pretty standard really. At the age of twelve I received my first scribe. At the age of fourteen a Zoroastrian named Vilma ritualistically shaved my testicles. There really is nothing like a shorn scrotum... it's breathtaking- I highly suggest you try it.

Net Likeability

Q: Below is a list of energy sources and related activities. For each, please tell us whether you have heard of them and, if so, whether you have a favourable, neutral or unfavourable view of them.

Rooftop solar 82%
Hydro-electric energy from dams 70%
Renewables in general 66%
Large-scale solar farms 52%
Home batteries 45%
Gas powered electricity 42%
Large-scale wind turbines on land 37%
Large-scale wind turbines off the coast 34%
Large-scale batteries 31%
Nuclear powered electricity 8%
Coal powered electricity 2%

Net likeability is calculated by subtracting the number of unfavourable responses from the favourable responses.
n=1003. (Figures may be rounded)

“These cells provide a run time of 200% compared to state-of-the-art graphite cells, while being lighter and smaller than other batteries with the same energy content,” said Jon Bornstein, President of Amprius Lab. “

The move by CATL to reduce the cost per kWh of its LFP cells to an average of
$US 56.47 /kWh by mid-2024 has sent shockwaves through the industry.

This substantial price drop, down from RMB 900 per kWh in just one year, has significant implications for the EV market. For instance, the cost of an average 60 kWh battery pack is set to plummet from $6,776 to just $3,388, resulting in savings of over $3,000 per car.

One of the most transformative changes in technology over the last few decades has been the massive drop in the cost of clean energy. Solar photovoltaic costs have fallen by 90% in the last decade, onshore wind by 70%, and batteries by more than 90%.

These technologies have followed a “learning curve” called Wright’s Law. This states that the cost of technology falls consistently as the cumulative production of that technology increases.
