I just didn't really want to have to find out who to ask permission off and then wait for permission to get one because I wanted to switch suppliers as quickly as possible plus I don't like emailing people and stuff anyway e: the rokkaku-shi (六角氏) were a sengoku era daimyo clan from Omi province who got owned by oda nobunaga (as did most people) whose name means something along the lines of six angles/hexagon people (rokkakei, 六角形) disappointingly their mon is not a hexagon, or even in the D6 group, from which i conclude that the early modern japanese had no respect for symmetry groups

I don't know exactly what a smart meter can and can't do, but my main concern would be whether it can send live readings. When (not if) the power company gets hacked, somebody can then essentially see remotely when somebody is or isn't home, since that correlates pretty well with power usage. Doing a bit of reading it does seem like (some/all?) meters allow you to specify how often it sends updates, between half-hourly and monthly, so I would choose the longest interval that I can.

Monthly reads are optimal for small scale tracking like a single domestic supply. Half hourly data is only required for large scale operations which can burn a ton of power out of hours if the BMS isn't set up correctly.

The answer to Cohen's very pertinent question is "not having the full support of the journalist set and thus their scandals being made relevant".

I saw some interesting analyses back in the day using half hourly data, where it could tell based on fingerprinting what the power consumption of your fridge, oven, kettle, shower etc was. This might be useful if you could then tell people eg: 'the fridge you have appears to be inefficient, if you bought a new one you'd actually save enough money over the next 3 years that it'd offset the cost'. Of course, that's hardly in the interests of a private energy supplier unless they get a kickback or whatever. As usual it boils down to nationalise everything.

Yes - imagine being a journalist and perceiving the attention and ridicule of journalists to be some kind of eldritch ghost we've lost the ability to summon.

Electric grids are expensive to maintain and update though, I can see why energy companies might rather get a few quid less from consumers if it means they don't have to upgrade their networks

It's kinda both, any irish person would look at that list and instantly know what they're getting at, but yet also they have Murphy and O Brien which combined probably account for 20% of all Irish. The clip art is fantastic though, you have been visited by the Wizard of Antiziganism, send to 10 followers or your lovely holiday park will lose subscriber

Your landlord has almost zero chance of getting you out by August, and you don't need to agree the rent increase either. They still need to fix the washing machine though.

Half hourly data isn’t allowed to be aggregated at a granularity that identifies a specific household or business (apart from in the use of that data to prove electricity theft) - s10 and 10a of the Licence Conditions of the Electricity Act. The use of smart meter data is helping with the RTS switch off in the north massively, and will be massive in the electrification of transport. Please get a smart meter.

kustomkarkommando posted:I'm enjoying the people angry that they are being lumped in with Travellers who of course it is fine to ban from your hotel I'm not defending the list. Nor am I saying it would be fine if the list was just surnames associated with Traveller families. (The companies rationale for the entire list was flawed. They are relying on management having a right to refuse admission, which they of course do. But that doctirine is "refuse Alan Carr because he wrecked his room back in 1997." Not "refuse all people with the name Carr.") This is so much worse than that, because it's such a wide ranging list of Irish surnames that's it's discriminating against Irish settled and traveller communities. It's both discriminatory and it's stupid because it shows that the company doesn't even know who they are "supposed" to be discriminating against and just ends up blanket banning Irish people from their business.
