I agree and I still see people speculating over the cause of the outage in this very thread, showing a worrying degree of confidence that for example renewable energies played a negative role
In a more upbeat note, the people I talked to in person were really cool-headed and realistic regarding speculation about the cause, compared to how lots of people seemed to have reacted on the web. Most people were basically "Someone incompetent fucked up, it'll be back soon" in mood during yesterday.
There’s a subset of the population that has a survivalist fetish and wants to see worst-case scenarios in infrastructure, including black starts, play out in real life.
I think it’s because they get to witness uncommon procedures play out.
The rest of the population just wants to get on with life.
