by concentrating the load into a single location like that, you would likely overload the transmission system at that location and trigger a ton of system upgrades. so they would likely need to build their own generation and still probably upgrade lines if they just took over a county.

I really hate SQL as a language for doing data-related tasks, but the core tech for it is often much better in terms of reliability (and is close to having performance parity IME)... specifically for working with larger-than-memory datasets. I think the team at Polars is working on improving larger-than-memory operations though.

In my experience it works OK with spilling to disk so I haven't had too much of a concern with memory usage... previously I had issues with it OOM'ing and failing (or maybe this was a skill issue?), but haven't had that happen recently.

I usually do REPL driven development in Python via emacs but you can tell it's not the natural way to do things, esp. if you start doing stuff with async. But I still feel that it makes me way more productive than I would otherwise be

But with solar, how is the synchronization provided? In like a giant buck? Or in software somehow? Does the phase shift matter as much as in the electromechanical systems?

If you mean how does solar detect phase and synchronize to the grid: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase-locked_loop

If you mean how does solar act to reinforce the grid: search for terms like "grid forming inverter vs. grid following inverter" though not all generators are the same in terms of how much resilience they add to the grid, esp. w.r.t. the inertia they do or do not add. See e.g. https://www.greentechmedia.com/squared/dispatches-from-the-g...

the vim one is pretty irritating with input delay but the neovim one isn't too bad (the one that hooks into neovim)... at least it makes vs code tolerable enough for me so I don't bang my head against the wall when I have to use it
