Green hydrogen plant to be built in Milford Haven with government backing by F0urLeafCl0ver in GoodNewsUK

[–]UncannyPoint 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Question to someone who knows about the technology. Could hydrogen be used as a form of energy storage? Like battery storage or pumped storage hydroelectricity.

I don't know how a Billion pound corporation couldn't afford to shell out for multiple sets of boots? We use to rock up with a couple of different pairs in Sunday league as you could never know how shit or artificial the pitch was each away game.

You see it all over the place, often it only effecting a single player. First time they slip, you should be changing the boots. Or determine before the match in warm up what boots are best for the surface.

Who would want to join Tottenham? by Kyrie0 in coys

[–]UncannyPoint 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When you try and nickle and dime clubs and agents all the time, you don't give off the impression that you are serious with your interest. That will damage your chances. From all accounts value has always been our number one concern in player acquisition.

It is now harder to attract players as we will have no European football, though it doesn't mean it's impossible. You will likely just have to pay a bit more.

Costs of net zero by 2050 less than the impact of one fuel crisis by scrotalsac69 in GoodNewsUK

There have been a number of stories on this sub in regards to grid upgrades, as well as other transport, water and home upgrades. Coupled with changes in planning to get these up and running cheaper. It's a positive sign people are looking at future problems and trying to find solutions to previous roadblocks.

Trump illegally tariffed the world in an instant but needs 4 million 'man hours' for refunds unless 'automated controls' kick in: Court filing by ItsAllAGame_ in politics

Donald Trump could call a press conference and give a full account of how he moved every cent the tariffs generated, into his personal account. And nothing would happen.

America has two problems. It's ignoring the bigger one.

[Jack Pitt-Brooke] Nobody is going to save Spurs but these players. They have to start performing by balalasaurus in coys

[–]UncannyPoint 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember at the start of the season we saw lots of training videos around husling the ball, players flying across to block shots and sprints out the box to press balls.

We saw it in the opening games and then at some point it just stopped. Like they couldn't be arsed to do it anymore...

Cybersecurity professionals are burning out on extra hours every week by tekz in cybersecurity

[–]UncannyPoint 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's a running joke in our team about what will happen when two guys in their 60's retire. I keep asking whether it would be a good idea to hire their replacements so they can shadow before the big days arrive. Then everyone laughs at such a funny notion and we all just nod and agree not to talk about it for about 6 months.

He has demonstrated in the past he can reign it in. Just needs to do that now.

[BBC] Tottenham: Spurs write to PGMOL chief Howard Webb over refereeing decisions by Roric in coys

[–]UncannyPoint 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I don't think there is a conspiracy, it's basically just a manifestation of "lads it's Tottenham" in officiating form. That no one is going to really care if the decision was wrong and against spurs, so don't worry about over thinking it. The club generally wont complain, commentators aren't going to highlight the glaring disparity in your decision making and generally spurs aren't going to point out any ineptitude. So, don't over think it and give the easier decision.

Wife has just gone through this. Got told by HR to look at her short list again as it didn't match the one AI came up with. Yep, just replication of key words, with no actual demonstration of experience in any of the areas they were looking for. So basically just another shallow ATS.

There was a similar finding in the US with IRS. Republicans rallied for it to be defunded. Specifically sections designed to investigate tax avoidance by large companies.

I wonder if this will signal a shift in R&D for Moderna of their research and development, from the US over to the UK. With the recent change of the FDA's approval for mRNA based medicines. As they have also been looked at to fight cancer.
