Abridged Activity Log, AUG-NOM-7
>> Archive, please note down the following activity until console sleeps
>> Package all results into missive for AUG-GOV-23 when finished
>> Include any transmissions from Human-1
[ARCHIVE begins recording]
>> Set directory: “.../power_grid_solaris”
>> Open grid_nodes.csv as grid
[Power grid network displayed]
>> Mark all nodes that power any awake consciousness
>> Mark all nodes that are grid-essential
>> Create new simulation from grid network
>> Simulate: power surge, assume full grid operational
>> Average 13 out of 100 marked nodes survive
[Results saved, simulation reset]
>> Mark substations connected to: operating living units
>> Simulate: power surge, assume all marked substations are shut downÂ
>> Average 78 out of 100 marked nodes survive.
>> Better. Still unacceptable results.
[Results saved, simulation reset]
>> Create new simulations
>> Simulate: marking different substations
>> For each set of marked substations: run simulation #1, checking for power surge assuming marked substation is turned off
>> Record results with each loop
[Simulation beginning. Time estimated to complete: 49 minutes.]
>> Notify when simulations complete.
[New Message, Human 1: “Are you working on the grid sims?”]
[New Message, Human 1: “And..?”]
>> Display current results, current simulation progress on Ext-33
[New Message, Human 1: “Hm… What do you think?”]
>> Respond: “It is difficult to see a way to prevent serious power surge damage without shutting down all substations.”
[New Message, Human 1: “When you run the simulation where everything’s shut down, will you record the time it takes for the grid’s safety mechanisms to kick in and when we should turn things on again?”]
>> Respond: “Please direct me to safety mechanism data?”
[New Message: [link to safety spec data]]
>> Respond: “Data doesn’t include all mechanisms near the power station.”
[New Message, Human 1: “We can just assume they don’t work since they’re no longer sending us any data - it’s highly unlikely they’re on but not sending us anything.”]
>> Update simulation map with safety_spec_power_grid.dta
[Simulation beginning. Time estimated to complete: 73 minutes.]
>> Respond: “Updated.”
[New Message, Human 1: “Rad. Notify me and 23 when you’re done.”]
>> Set task: send simulation summary statistics to AUT-GOV-23 and Human-1
>> Respond: “Understood.”
[New Message, Human 1: “Thanks. I’ll be out until you notify me.”]
