China always aspired to be the world's undisputed leader in science and technology, and Trump is giving them what they want.

He entered the country illegally. He had no paperwork, no sponsor.

Oh, we can figure out a way easily enough. Figuring out a way to do it that doesn't quintuple food prices is the more difficult part.

A lot of people don't realize how valuable "environmental services" (like crop-friendly weather) are to the economy until suddenly they don't have them anymore, and have to start spending money to try to reproduce those same conditions artificially. Building air-conditioned indoor farms is going to be hell of a lot of capital-intensive than just essentially planting seeds in the ground and gathering the result food afterwards.

Hmm, sounds like you've caused an underflow on an unsigned value. I recommend restarting the simulation from the top and hoping it goes better on the next iteration.

You're assuming the soil is able to support those crops. Look at the Sand Hills of Nebraska. When settlers first saw them they thought, "Oh wow! Acre after acre of land we can plant for food!"

Turns out the ONLY thing which grows in them hills is the grass already there. That's why they raise cattle and bison.

There is no guarantee moving farms further north will be successful, let alone able to produce sufficient crops.

And there it is. Because it's a white male immigrant, can't mention it. The fact he is here illegally doesn't enter the equation.

Just goes to show that stating a fact is fightin words to MAGA.

What made the decision so difficult was that they decided they had to give refunds to everyone whose devices no longer functioned properly, because their customers were no longer getting the functionality they had paid for.

Right?

That's because Europe doesn't have the taxpayers subsidizing private industry for decades on end. Or who runs begging to the government to protect them from their own incompetence every other year.

Perhaps if private industry paid their own way, you'd change your tune.

Trump has never beaten a man.

At some point they'll have AI-controlled robots going through the waste streams and the landfills and sorting all the useful materials out of them. Once you have robots capable of doing the tedious work, landfill becomes a valuable ore, full of useful materials.

Between Bitcoin and AI, "too much electricity" shouldn't be an insurmountable problem for anyone. Either of things will happily consume as much electricity as you can throw at it, and want more. Of course, if you think those things are a waste of power, you could start using excess power to synthesize fuel to sell.

And yet, the F-35, highly over budget in every area and rife with hundreds of problems, continues to be funded rather than just be killed. In fact, 13 years after first production, Lockheed Martin is still sending jets off the assembly line with quality defects

Needless to say, Lockheed's response is they need more money:

So no citation then?

The idea that new build anything is cheaper than nuclear that has been operating for three decades or more is ridiculous on its face. If I'm wrong, please, by all means, direct me to the evidence thereof.

Sorry, you were talking about prices today and "still using" nuclear. Your comment re: subsidies suggests you are talking about Hinkley Point, which is not yet generating power and no subsidies for said power generation are being paid.

Existing nuclear is probably the cheapest energy in your grid. The "good news" at least for you is that almost all of it is scheduled for decommissioning by the end of the decade, so you will be able to see just how "expensive" it was when your rates go up as a result.
