Who has breakeven? give me the link.

Huh? They were at a conference, probably had seen each other there but not actually met until that point. Or even without seeing him at the conference he may have assumed it since most of the guests may be conference participants. Bennett had been thinking about the cryptography thing while swimming and thought he'd be good to run it by. I've done that at conferences and vice versa, though usually it's related to a talk. Admittedly people have gotten more introverted than in prior decades so it may seem unusual to do that.

It shouldn't produce any results, it is still in construction.

Why can't the loyal customers do something for their loyal supplier? You paid money, and got a graphics card.

Fair trade, as stated in the user agreement. They made a game and you paid them for that. I'd say the biggest issue is tax. In theory is that not bartering and taxable? Reference: https://www.irs.gov/taxtopics/...

Nobody has "working" fusion. Nobody has shown break-even, or even beaten the Tokamak in any demo. The closest has been the NIF, which showed "scientific breakeven" whatever the F that means.

Why don't they pick on grok? That'll end the FSF that's why they won't.

A product was produced for cheaper, unlocking other opportunities related to that product. For example if the product was a light bulb, cheaper lightbulbs mean more office lighting which means a company can offer 24/7 services.

Why don't they invest more in ITER instead? They should get ITER up faster. If they can show it works, the money will flow. I feel like they are spreading resources too thin and then nothing will work and fusion will be set back yet again decades.

We're building flying cars.

Nobody else applied for that open job?

"why sell these things if you can rent them out and keep extracting fees from the users" .. that's only a good business model if you're sure there's no competitors. Robots will have tons of competitors, the Chinese are on it. So is figure.ai and Tesla. It's not like some Adobe Photoshop monopoly thing.

Robots don't take away livings, they grant livings. It's called production, they produce stuff we can use. Do YOU take away someone's living when you do your job?

I don't like that company anymore, they sold out their original mission of making things cheap (Reference: https://static.raspberrypi.org... ). Now they're about quick profits while sacrificing both long term prosperity and the mission of making computing available for all humanity.

That's a hell of a place to put monkeyflowers. There are no monkeys in California, well not outside of Sacramento anyway.
