    Nice work. Do you know of any studies looking at the cost of powering the world that way? And the time need to transition?

  I get the old man yells at sky reaction but it's just a short video... A snapshot of information which directly references with overlayed text a citation to the study he's discussing. Not much different than most HN comments which 90% of the time are only one or two sentences.

    None of this is true. Highly upvoted hn comments (the ones people read) bring receipts. This is just someone’s low effort opinion. For what it’s worth, the cost to extract uranium from seawater is actually a very complicated subject. It is generally cited that the cost is approximately 2x the mining cost, but that’s based on estimates for seawater extraction. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/280745206_Cost_Estimation_of_Uranium_Recovery_from_Seawater_with_System_of_Braid_Type_Adsorbent https://www.researchgate.net/publication/280745206_Cost_Esti...

      Well, at the very least give a short summary of what you are linking to.
