Water vapor in gas lines freezing up sensors and regulators in LNG plants.

All cold related outage.
Just got off statewide elected officials call with ERCOT. Trying to relay from memory:
-17 GigaWatt still off line.
-Trying to bring stuff back on line ASAP.
-Combination of gas, coal, solar, wind, and nukes went off line. (Nukes?)
-500 MW (0.5GW) came back during the call

But the measures were for 2011 level storm.
2021 far exceeded what was planned or expected.
Just didn't expect this cold and across the entire state.
That goes to the transmission entity... oncor, centerpoint, and co-ops decide how to rotate the blackouts. ERCOT just tells them how much load to shed.
The expected blackout cycle is supposed to be 24hr on 24 off.
(Downtown and hospital districts are critical I would guess)
They apologize for not letting the public know that this was what was going to happen. They knew this was coming last week. (?)
If you have power, reduce your use to the minimum you need. They said that this will help stuff come back on faster for everyone
But storm even reached Mexico. Mexico stopped sending power so they would have enough for their own grid. Other states did the same.
Storm covering the entire continent. No one was selling
ERCOT and PUC will discuss.
(Likely need a declared disaster and need federal disaster aid package. Property insurance will hurt)
If we had known how the rolling blackouts were going to occur, then we could have reacted better.
I felt better prepared for Harvey than this.

Courtesy of @edbrisson's wonderful thread on breaking into comics – https://t.co/TgNblNSCBj – here is why the same applies to Product Management, too.
There is no better way of learning the craft of product, or proving your potential to employers, than just doing it.
You do not need anybody's permission. We don't have diplomas, nor doctorates. We can barely agree on a single standard of what a Product Manager is supposed to do.
But – there is at least one blindingly obvious industry consensus – a Product Manager makes Products.
And they don't need to be kept at the exact right temperature, given endless resource, or carefully protected in order to do this.
They find their own way.

I think a plausible explanation is that whatever Corbyn says or does, his critics will denounce - no matter how much hypocrisy it necessitates.
Corbyn opposes the exploitation of foreign sweatshop-workers - Labour MPs complain he's like Nigel
He speaks up in defence of migrants - Labour MPs whinge that he's not listening to the public's very real concerns about immigration:
He's wrong to prioritise Labour Party members over the public:
He's wrong to prioritise the public over Labour Party
One of the oddest features of the Labour tax row is how raising allowances, which the media allowed the LDs to describe as progressive (in spite of evidence to contrary) through the coalition years, is now seen by everyone as very right wing
