Smart move to acknowledge this and go for the debt restructuring while the current U.S. president sees Venezuela as his major foreign policy win. The government will be able to leverage that to get the U.S. government to push for far more f

ICE -> EV is not a 30 year transition. I’d be surprised if there’s a consequential ICE industry after 2040 (that doesn’t mean there won’t be ICE cars being driven, just that they won’t be selling outside niche industries after 2040). The

- Tesla, the most prominent and successful EV company, didn’t start with a truck. - Neither did all the attempts at EVs from other competitors in the 2010s, like the GM Bolt/Volt or the Nissan Leaf. - But you’re not wrong, that today E

Unfortunately most doctors’ training simply doesn’t cover preventative medicine. Most medical schools teach doctors pretty much only to respond to medical situations. For example, a root cause of why there’s so much confusion among the gene

Until they actually do “find another home for the movie”, that statement exists for one reason and one reason only. And you fell for it.

You would have the same critiques but applied from a different perspective. It’s like reclassifying a really bad plane as a helicopter. The same critiques wouldn’t apply but it would probably be an even worse helicopter.

1. Nuclear has a negative learning curve. It’s gotten more expensive with time. Part of the reason is increasing geopolitical risks (the U.S. just launched a war on Iran because of the possibility it may upgrade nuclear material to weapon c

These are semantic games. Iran has said the Strait will be open without tolls as well. But they’ve said they will charge fees for “services they provide”, where the possible service they will provide is not shooting down any ship that pays

For 15 years I’ve been arguing with people who kept denying the feasibility, and even inevitability, of renewable + storage. Renewable energy has a nearly 30 year history of exponential price improvements and efficiencies of scale hadn’t ev

As far as I can tell they haven’t reached any agreement, never mind a JCPOA level one, on the nuclear issue, and only plan on discussing it over the next 2 months.

You can’t fill your car with gas overnight while sleeping, however. Don’t get me wrong. I think these chargers are very useful, but the ultra fast ones are not as critical for EVs ad a fast gas station is for ICE vehicles.

Ah yes, that’s why Obama worked hard for years to negotiate and sign the JCPOA against Netanyahu’s wishes. It’s much more factual and useful to point out that Trump is remarkably easily influenced and Netanyahu was able to remarkably easily

The entire environmental argument against data centers is largely bullshit. Sure, they shouldn’t be powered by gas or coal. And the local effects are significant. But the macro environmental effects are minor and the local effects can be re
