Excited to see Nolan taking on the story of a brilliant but troubled man who has to overcome a series of challenges, and the loyal wife and child who wait for him. A bit of a departure there

@meidastouch.com did a podcast on how legal groups will be able to use Loper Bright Enterprises v. Raimondo and Relentless, Inc. v. Department of Commerce ruling to help block the Republicans' agenda as well.
I have been down the rabbit hole over the past couple of days on the outlook for US #LNG, and I realised there is a massive unanswered - and unanswerable - question hanging over all US energy policy and regulation over the next few years: the impact of the end of Chevron deference. (1/x)

A reminder for anyone who needs it that this is one of the greatest business books ever written. Highly recommended
Judging by the mayhem in the line for snacks at our local AMC when it’s showing Wicked and Gladiator II, the movies are back
Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! First time pumpkin pie effort looks a bit rough, but smells amazing. Will report back on how it tastes
Sad that Arsenal not being in the Europa League means there’s no Thanksgiving football this year
Infrastructure investment projects are challenging, even a long time ago in a galaxy far far away
Andor News@newsandor.bsky.social · 2y agoEmpire Magazine reveals that Director Orson Krennic in this season of #Andor is in charge of raising money to build the Death Star and is behind on schedule and over budget.
Another picture of that Cybertruck laden with firewood that I saw on the road yesterday. If the Tesla marketing department wants to get in touch, I am open to offers
So this is a first for me: a Cybertruck actually being used as a truck, hauling some firewood. I’ve never seen that before
It’s half-time at #COP29: the rest day in between the two weeks of negotiations. The score so far: 0-0, with a few yellow cards. Still plenty of time to get a result, though
The world is in danger of slipping towards an emissions pathway that would lead to ~3 °C of warming. Failure to agree a meaningful climate finance deal at #COP29 would increase the risk of that outcome. #energytransition www.woodmac.com/blogs/energy...
COP29 faces climate finance challenge |
The COP29 climate talks began on Monday with climate finance at the top of the agenda. A meaningful deal would show the international effort to tackle climate change is still alive. Failure could furt...

Arriving at the #COP29 climate talks in Baku, at a tough moment for hopes of co-ordinated government action to tackle climate change. I’m here with Wood Mackenzie and @theenergygang.bsky.social, to see what successes, if any, supporters of climate action can achieve.
After 15 years of stagnation, US electricity demand is starting to grow again, creating new challenges for utilities and grid operators. Data centers are the principal reason. www.woodmac.com/news/opinion...

Until I Googled it just now, I always thought the chorus of ‘Rocket Man’ went: “Rocket man, burning up the fuel of everyone”, and it was a comment on the 70s energy crisis
The cancellation of the most advanced US small modular reactor project dealt a severe blow to hopes of a new nuclear revival. To keep nuclear as an option for low-carbon power, governments need to do more to support new plants. www.woodmac.com/news/opinion... #nuclear
