    Out of the 800,000 people each year who committed suicide, on average perhaps more capable than the rest of us, what if a few would have been instrumental in developing fusion power?

    I don’t like arguments like this. Especially when it comes from someone in the tech field. It seems to imply that climate change is a technical problem and that some silver bullet solution from a savant will solve it. Meanwhile in the real world, the economic and political system has been blowing all the increasing energy capacity on useless stuff like cryptocurrency and now AI.
