This Blog is No Longer About Energy Policy
I initially started this blog out of frustration. I had—by the time I had started this blog—spent three years trying to effect real change in the electric utility industry. I knew great change was coming. I didn’t know what needed to be done, but I know it had to be something. And my day job—my real job—offered me limited opportunities to make it happen until key figures retired.
Such is the industry.
So I started writing. For the greater good, this was a change to bring functional operational analysis to electric utility policy, a subject long on hot takes and short on people who knew what the fuck they were talking about.
And for myself, it ultimately became a full-time job. Over eight months, it became clear that my analytical skills were worth cash money and open runway. And rather quickly it has become clear that I will post memes and sip workahol with the best. It’s a thrill.
The lesson for anyone reading is that you absolutely should poast about whatever you care most about. If you do it for >6 months at a consistent clip, it will prove worth cash money.
I cannot, should not, and need not poast about grid policy now. I am now allowed (and mandated) to prepare ceremonial-grade memes in a professional capacity.
Yet I am—at my core—an old-head poaster from Blogspot and first-get SoundCloud. I must poast.
So this blog is now book and art reviews. Even outside of semiconductors, AI, energy systems, industrial inputs, and utilities, I have much to say.
