Wow, that must be a late 80’s or early 90’s Lennox condenser. Does your company install the Bryant Evolution Extremes?

There's been a lot of talk about energy resilience recently, usually at the national level (Where do we get our oil, where do we get our gas).

You can improve your own energy resilience with Solar Panels, Batteries, EVs, and heat pumps.

If there is an Oil crisis, EVs and Heat Pumps will still work

Sen. @warren.senate.gov and Sen. Josh Hawley have introduced a bill to break up companies that own health insurers and medical providers.

"Love it," says @mcuban.bsky.social.

"They control everything. Literally what those companies do defines the cost of healthcare in this country."

your guide to heat pumps
everything you need to know about the most efficient way to heat and cool your home.

Really excited about this one.

We made the guide we wished existed when we first starting getting curious about heat pumps. Starting this week, we're breaking down each section.

check it out: guide.heatpumped.org

I am still unsure who this product is for; it has the same amount of RAM as an iPhone(!) and shorter battery life. Speaking from experience, 8 GB of RAM gets eaten up by Teams and browser at the same time, or similar business software use cases.

A line chart tracking heat pump and gas furnace sales in the U.S. from 2012-2025. Heat pumps have outsold gas furnaces four years straight, although the former's sales dipped compared to the previous year.

Winning isn’t easy. Winning four times straight? A rare feat accomplished only by an elite few, like:

- The New York Yankees winning the World Series, 1936-1939
- The Houston Comets winning the WNBA championship, 1997-2000
- Heat pumps outselling gas furnaces in the U.S., 2022-2025 🏆

How can we continue to move forward goals like decarbonizing buildings and the grid on a national scale despite current events?

Hope to see more batteries come online as a result of NEM 3 to ride from dusk to dawn on renewables.

Last week we got to say goodbye to our 66 year old gas boiler, though the gas has been shut off to the house since last year. All electric, now time for solar and wind!

Your guide to savings on home energy upgrades You can still save on better appliances thanks to state, local, and utility rebates.

The clock may have run out on the federal tax credits for home electrification. But it’s not too late to save through state and local programs.

Our hearts break for Minneapolis, lives lost & families shattered 💔

We aim to show that Bitcoin is the people’s money and provides incredible social good use cases.

To that end, we plan to issue direct grants/funding for families affected, and resistance grants. Stay tuned.

Frustrated with all the horrible things happening in the world and the horrible dictators who seem to control the news? Desperate to find a way to take action?

Consider replacing your furnace with a heat pump and your gasoline car with an EV.

Dictators live off oil and gas revenue. Starve them.

Here’s some things that can be done by a party out of power

- file impeachment articles every day in the House

- withhold unanimous consent in the senate and filibuster every nominee

- be everywhere with comms saying this is lawless and impeachable

It feels more like a depression sleep when you’re here, may be worth just sticking to 5.5 hours a night than surviving this dysfunction 😂

I think the issue was money (selling the trucks at a loss due to capital expenditures for setting up the manufacturing), he still seems interested in a smaller electric truck (Maverick-like) and another crossover thing.

Kind of a bummer they discontinued it, though they say the money from Lightning will bankroll manufacturing lines for other electric cars (like Maverick and a crossover).

It’s tough. These fuels fluctuate and may net minimal savings when switching back and forth. People are hyper focused on their electric bills while blindly opening their wallet for oil/gas/propane.

Winter’s here: Let’s heat our homes efficiently. ❄️⚡When heat pumps connect into #ThermalEnergyNetworks, they can be 600% efficient. That’s 6x more efficient than the best gas furnaces. #ThermalEnergyThursday #EnergySky #BuildingDecarb 🎥 by @morningpeopleprod.bsky.social

Iowa already has ~70% wind energy, though it would be nice if that land could turn into more turbines, people food and houses.
