This guy is SOOO full of SHIT.
He has had over a decade of time to invest into other nuclear energy, but has chosen to ONLY invest into his stuff, which he is doing with china and it will not be ready for another 20-30 years.
OTOH, there have been MULTIPLE nuclear fission and fusion start-ups that he just ignores, which if he gave just a small amount of money to flible, or Trans Atomic, or any number of good companies, they would be ready in under 5 years.
And that was 10 years ago.
Gates is no different than ppl like the kock bros or Trump. They speak a lot and deliver little.
Seriously, the bulk of the loses is because they sold these items prior to bringing them to fruition.
The CEO, Sundar Pichai, should be nuked for his stupidity.
Seriously, 4K is NOTHING compared to what any of those cases costs. So, the question is, why did they not pay?
And the back-up only went with 1 level? Seriously?
Normally, I stick up for the police,
but Gut feeling says that there was a case that they did not want tried and the police were in on that.
Russia had NO RIGHTS to invade Georgia OR Ukraine.
Crimea is a different issue. It has for centuries been part of Russia. It was only in the 50s (60s?) that Ukraine was given 'title' to it, but russia still controlled it until the break-up. SO, did Russia have rights to invade? Well, a lot more than they did on the other 2.
no, I am EQUATING them. IOW, Putin has done a lot of damage and yet, we did not move the clock. Now, an idiot gets on-board who really has NO power, and the world is closer than in 1953 when we close to 100,000 warheads in active USE?
neither is factual.
For starters, he can say what he wants to about AGW. He has NO REAL CAPABILITIES TO IMPACT.
OTOH, CHina continues to say that they support it, while at the same time, their new coal plants grows faster than their AE, and so does their emissions.
As to nuclear weapons, Russia, China, and North Korea are all in active production of new warheads. And Trump is good friends with Putin. So, that is also a none-issue.
Trump is surrounded by all sort of ppl that will have NOTHING to do with a nuke war.
Just like Trump is speaking of torturing prisoners for info, I doubt that he will get that too far. We saw during W's wars that it really did not do much. More importantly, there are enough ppl that know that if they keep quiet about it and allow it to occur under American watch, they will be held legally responsible, and believe me, few of them want to be in Leavenworth and now know it.
Putin is far more likely to get us into a nuke war with his current actions. He has gone over the lines many many times in the last 5 years that USSR NEVER would have done to us. We would have taken them out right away.
you think that Putin flying their nuke bombers over our land is NOT a threat? Seriously?
You think that Putin's invasions of Georgia, Crimea, Ukraine, and then bombing the rebels in Syria was not a threat? Seriously?
You think that running hidden subs 1 mile off the shores of norway, sweden, finland, etc was not a threat? Seriously?
And the build-out of new nuclear warheads and delivery mechanisms for the last 7 years might also mean something about nukes.
But, hey, I can see why you would fear an idiot that speaks during election time, as opposed to somebody that is showing massive actions of what they are capable of doing.
first off, we gave them NOTHING, except what they were owed. That money was being held from the Iran Hostage Crisis and under reagan, we agreed PRIOR that it belonged to Iran and could NOT be used for hostage or other items. So, our sitting on it was useless.
Per international laws, namely, nuclear related, everything that they had done up to that point, WAS LEGAL. They were doing NOTHING ILLEGALLY. So, getting a 10 year delay was about as good as it was going to go.
As to the sanctions that Obama had gotten on Iran, well, we saw what happened with sanctions on Iraq. Most nations agreed, and then ignored them after some time. Hell, many American businesses with nice GOP contacts, were busy trading with Iraq.
iran HAD a clear path to nuke weapons thanx to W/fucking neo-cons.
What O and others did, was delay in hopes that down the road more intelligent ppl would take over on BOTH sides.
With the death in Iran and our election, it is obvious that we went the opposite direction. Still, it will be another 10 years before we have to be concerned about Iran (though they WILL build it).
NPR is reporting what Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists are saying, nothing more.
Sadly, you far righties are so full of lies and BS, that you blast some of the best and ONLY 2 sided reporting that is going on.
God, it sickens me that I have to defend trump, but there is so much BS on this.
It amazes me that so few on the far left pay attention to what is really happening.:
1) Putin is invading numerous areas for controlling them. Putin shows that he has no issues with taking what is not his. That is OK.
Putin threatens the west with nuclear war, and that is OK.
Trump (and unknown) gets into office and then we have nuclear war issues that are as bad as 1953.
2) China is not only emitting 3-5x the amount of CO2 that America does, but they continue to grow at a frightening rate (check OCO2, not chinese gov numbers).
Trump gets in and says that he will help Coal. Yet, wind already costs less to run than coal does or can. And solar continues downward. IOW, coal really can not be expanded.
Then Trump is talking about letting America export oil/nat gas. That will increase America's nat gas on the market, BUT, all it will do is lower the prices elsewhere. IOW, it will not increase the burning of it, or any more CO2.
So, exactly why is this moved now, and why is this blamed on Trump?
I can not see trump raising import taxes on Europe. They are not dumping on America, nor manipulating the euro against the dollar. They have decent labor and environmental laws. All in all, free trade with europe is fair trade.
Now, as to the taxation issue, that is one that affects all western nations, if not all nations, and needs to be addressed.
in fact, I would like to see America do this through the rockies. We really need to get more water going down the Colorado.
At the same time, we need to require California to desalinate water and quit stealing water from the Colorado River.
hopefully, trump will announce that all CONtacts that were awarded to companies like IBM, GE, etc will be re-bidded and awarded only to American companies.
Seriously, the feds can simply stop all contracts with IBM and open them up to American companies.
And no, Companies like IBM, HP, GE, MS, (increasingly Google), etc are not American companies, but international ones.
It is time for us to spend our trillions on American companies, just like China does on Chinese companies and Europe does on European companies.
presented that way, you are correct, esp since AE are NOT alternatives to gasoline.
OTOH, if you tell them the truth that we spend more subsidizing fossil fuel vs all of AE AND NUKES COMBINED, then I would guess that most Americans would want to increase the funding for AE (though sadly, the anti-science iodiots on the far left will figtht against increased funding for nukes).
Actually, every new Tesla is delivered to your door and then they spend several hours with you teaching you everything about the car.
Our Tesla is a 2013 so does not have this. But from what I have heard, on the new cars, they spend about an hour on the AP getting customer comfortable. And consider the fact that this is only used on the most dangerous conditions ( highways/rural roads vs slow urban ), and still has way less than average, I would suggest that is proof enough that Tesla has done enough training.

I do not think it is so much being Indian, but being religiously MBA , and less about the tech.

exactly.
Something is REALLY fishy about this one.
Hopefully, the FBI looks into it, but with this admin, I doubt it.

Here is something interesting.
Here is a little article about it.
But, so many here, have such knowledge of the world and what it is all about.
Shesh. How the fuck does ACs with no intelligence get modded up?
yes, but why did Putin's actions for the last 5 years do nothing?
putin will come by for nighttime hook-ups at Trump's hotel and then leave him a couple of billion here and there?

Yeah, I tend to suspect that the engineers, staticians at NHSTA have already made sure of this since they are the ones that did the study.
