Unfortunately not my experience. I have wasted hours on mid-level pages that I have expert knowledge about, making detailed, thoughtful changes that were immediately reverted back. As a result I have simply given up. I have spoken to others in same situation. Mod communication is a nightmare, they seem to rule with iron fist. I can only believe the platform is poorer for it.

Oh sure. My intuition is that wind speeds below the line of best fit (in the area of 2.5 GW from 5 km/h to 15 km/h) are below the line of best fit because the fan blades were slower (or zero) and don't operate well at low speeds.
Meanwhile the power generation of about 20 GW and ~14GW between 10 and 20 km/h might be because they had slowed down from a previous high point.

Economics is their most popular major I believe.

University of Chicago. I’m not aware of how this college ranks so high. The rest in order I get. What is the specialty at this college?

No you cant, because I posted them with my account which isnt deleted. I deleted the posts because I got a lot of negative feedback about the fact that I had power on the x axis. I fixed the graphs but had to create new posts as you cant edit your post.

Oh sorry, It’s 1/3rd of all articles he’s edited. “Steven Pruitt (born April 17, 1984) is an American Wikipedia editor with the highest number of edits made to the English Wikipedia, at over 5 million, having made at least one edit to one-third of all English Wikipedia articles. Pruitt first began editing Wikipedia in 2004. He has also created more than 33,000 Wikipedia articles. Pruitt was named as one of the 25 most important influencers on the Internet by Time magazine in 2017.” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steven_Pruitt

This one makes a little more sense to me, I would expect max power to be at lower speed than the original Germany based plot, and the decreasing power at high wind speed as they go offline and “park”

It seems like there's a lot of noise at the bottom-left of these distributions. It might be interesting to see if the top end of the noise is preceded by higher wind speeds/power generation or follows it.

If we're taking in numbers we just went past our 5th one and are currently on the 6th one but since we're using USD$ to pay businesses and crypto coins to pay the government (yes, you heard that right) then it doesn't feel like a collapse.

In that case, the majority of it that's being consumed is just as run of the mill as the cheeses in the US. And we're talking actual cheese, not a comparison in bad faith between American "cheese products" and actual European cheese, but the cheese that gets counted in production statistics as cheese. Just because people make up a specific word to call it and slap a PDO sticker on it doesn't make it more special.

Hang on: I didn't say anything about any alumni network, or leveraging professional connections with scions of whatever, or prestige, nor did I say that I studied something irrelevant. Quite the contrary. In fact, if you'd taken a philosophy course or two, you might have learned not to set up a straw man. They get blown over pretty easily.
As for elitism: I dunno. Some of my friends and colleagues have fancy educations and some don't. Talent will out, wherever it comes from, and brilliance needs no pedigree. That said, I'm grateful for the education I received. I have no idea if I could have received the same or better somewhere else. I'm long past the point of caring.
At no point since the day I graduated college has anyone in any work context ever -- ever -- asked me where I went to school, or what I studied.

That despite the German governments claim that they have a 63 GW total wind capacity, they are still burning large amounts of fossil fuels when it is not windy.

Sardo cheese from argentina is great. And we have great soft cheeses (Cuartirolo, port salut) and danbo and tybo cheeses, for sandwitches are great.

I'm from Argentina and I partially agree. We could improve our cheese game a lot but for harder cheesses we need to extend the maduration time. Probably due to the financial inestability, noone keeps a cheese to mature it 12 or 24 months, or at least none of the important players. Soft cheeses are great!

Possible/probable (almost certain? unless you corrected for it) confounding: as wind speed will correlate (causatively, but the wind isn't just local) to temperature gradients, you will find correlation to time of year and time of day, both of which correlate highly to light and temperature which correlate to power demand.
Also, as I always note: you should include credit to yourself, date of graph creation, and cited data sources, in text on the image itself, since jerks like to copy reddit images everywhere without backlinking.

For taller turbines you need wind lidar (like windcubes) to measure the wind speed.
