Look at Chinese anything. We build light rail in the US for 202 million per mile. The Chinese build HSR for 14.7 million per mile. What's your point?

Comparing the US to China on building costs is apples and oranges. For one, steel, concrete, banking, and construction are all state enterprises in China. They don't contract out the construction of infrastructure or the materials to for-profit companies.

Consider the following inequality:

If A(>)0 and B(>)0 then,

A+B (>) A

Where A is cost and B is profit.

I can't wait to see what kinds of DRM they shove into this.

It's all from the Christian lobbies. Church, evangelical, Christian nationalist money decides everything the right thinks it wants.

I think theres an argument of pedantic happening here, people aren't saying those advancements arent good, they are saying they aren't being made by musk, the man has 19 patents with his name on it over his entire career. These ideas would happen without him

Well he kinda is scum of the earth, his sexual scandals show hes willing to use power to abuse other, his reaction when he didnt get to use his toys to save the kid trapped in cave was to call their ultimate rescuer a pedophile. He fired and made fun of someones disability on his biggest stage. He IS a shitty person period

They can't because there is no embryo. Look right wingers are bad but you're literally just making up shit to be mad about. Stop. Go do something use. Start a union at your workplace. Join a protest. Give food to the homeless. Get off the internet and touch some grass I am begging you.

This kind of shit is always lauded by dudes who don't know shit about technology.

Level 3 charging will reduce that to 17mins.

They'll just conflate this with abortion

There is enough dumb stuff that right wingers do without needing to make up new stuff.

What's the point of commenting in the Futurology subreddit only to be skeptical? "Oh great, another breakthrough. Sure."

I'm not saying that we blindly get hyped up on every headline but we're in a time where we're going to start seeing that exponential growth. We are actually going to see a lot of new breakthroughs.

The word stem cell is all theyll need to witch hunt it.

There's no reason for them to do it, although I admit it might happen out of pure ignorance.

The stem cells in this case are reprogrammed and grafted from the adult patient's own body.

But he is an engineer and have helped to design many things.

He’s mostly just a businessman, but not solely. There’s lots of things to criticize him for, but he has done pretty incredible things counted together.

The word Punk by itself isn't oftenly used in that context but when applied to genres, yeah it most certainly refers to that. Maybe I was too specific but extreme inequality is almost always a part of it

If you want to expand on your view of it tho, feel free

No one gives a fuck who founded a company. That comment was about him basically being irrelevant to the inventions but still claiming them as his while sucking his own dick

Here, take my downvote. Your arguments stand on water. New nuke is expensive NOW, after west killed the industry for 3 decades and made it a niche, low numbers "homemade" enterprise. If it was deployed in economies of scale, the economics would look completely different.

Just look at chinese nuclear

$20 says the corporation that develops and markets that will do it as a 'subscription' service, and if you fail to pay your legs stop working. /s

Zip2 changed the way the businesses and customers found each other entirely. It was literally the replacement to the phone book, and first place where if you wanted to find a business you could just search categories in an online database and find numbers and addresses... PayPal impact was pretty obvious... Tesla breathed life into a virtually nonexistent EV market and has held like 3/3rds or more of the market share for over a decade. It's also at the forefront of both home and grid level energy storage... Then SpaceX literally privatized the space industry and changed the way that space vehicles made.

They are delusional and will likely contribute more to emissions than anyone else.

Nuclear was the way. Green idiots killed it in 90s and we're now reaping results

From the moment I understood the weakness of my flesh, it disgusted me.
