I like how this graph describes why nuclear fusion technology always seems to be "just around the corner": https://imgur.com/a/59NO34a

I really hate what hippies did to nuclear energy. We would've long solved the clean energy problem by now if they hadn't violently opposed anything with the word nuclear

nuclear energy is an existential threat to the green movement

green movement is an existential thread to nuclear energy

If they could explain how fusion energy can kill more people than fusion bombs funding would be unlimited.

A long history indeed. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tokamak

Maybe the corner is just a very long one, but one that’s so important to turn any material progress is important news? I think post scarcity is monumental.
