Hi! I'm Patrick. I'm a backend SWE ~6 years into my career. I spent ~4 years at Amazon building large scale distributed systems. More recently I spent ~2 years at a venture capital firm building tools to help investors make quantitative investment decisions. For my next role, I'd love to get back to working on large scale systems, ideally in the finance space. Looking forward to hearing from you!
1. The statement "it’s clear that those high prices weren’t doing their job" and subsequent disagreement with raising the price cap does not make sense to me. Any artificial price cap seems to limit the effectiveness of a market. From the producer's side, it limits the incentive to model and capture these tail events (e.g. winterize). From the consumer's side, it limits the incentive to reduce consumption. Is my perspective off here?
2. Is it possible to subscribe to two (or n) energy plans? Imagine subscribing to a wholesale plan (e.g. Griddy) and a fixed-rate plan and switching between them whenever wholesale prices rise above the fixed rate. Are there legal or practical reasons this can't happen?
