Too late to edit: just read your above comment again and I see you're just saying breakeven isn't doable. So skip that first wiki link, I think you're not disputing that fusion is doable at a net loss. The links on fusion power and MIT's design are still relevant though.
- scottlocklin 7y agoThanks for eventually reading more carefully. FWIIW I've worked in this field, have written popular articles on Farnsworth and his Fusors, have written popular articles on present day fusion efforts, and will not be convinced by MIT press releases any more than I was the LLNL press releases or anyone else's until they actually start making measurable progress, which nobody has ... in a long time. The most likely useful efforts are at Tri-Alpha, not MIT, and they're about as likely to pan out as I am to find 100lbs of gold outside my front door this evening.
