I don't think fusion would be as useful a technology as it would have been a few decades ago. Now renewables (wind, solar, hydro) seem like more and more as the clean and cheap energy of the future. The biggest problem of storage is rapidly being solved with batteries springing up everywhere.

The real problem with fusion is that even if it worked, the plants would be very complex and expensive. It would be much cheaper and reliable to build solar, wind and batteries instead.

Having operational fusion reactors would be cool as hell, but it wouldn't have that much impact on our lives in the end.

The youngsters are downvoting you, but what you're saying is sad but true. It's the reason Bernie never ran as an independent, he knew it would hand the victory to republicans on a silver platter.

Do I understand this correctly, that the first astronaut's realization is that all data structures are graphs?

If yes, that doesn't make much sense. How is an array a graph?

That freedom becomes misery on the instant you have to start maintain the code from some other free spirit, whose style is totally different from yours.

I honestly found it funny in a kind of a cute way, but I guess others didn't feel that way. Oh well, such is life sometimes.

If you say so. However, feel free to be one of those people who discover later in life how their quality of life drastically went up with a bit of jogging or going to the gym. "If I had figured this out younger, I would have ..." and so on.

Do you even lift bro?

Seriously though, doing some exercise could fix both of those problems. Kicking extinct fish doesn't count.

Yes, I thought all magic works like that.

I wish this was possible without the whole god thing. What do you do during prayers etc.? Whenever I've attended a baptism or a funeral or some such, all I can think about is how much mana the priest is using when casting the bless on the audience. It gets so awkward.

No, it's actually a comment section for a Youtube video, and it is appropriate to voice an opinion related to it here.

The meme you're parroting fits better when someone goes wildly off-topic, which is not what happened here.

I think they wanted people who follow orders to the dot, not people who have a sense of humor. Sounds like a terrible place to work, but I still understand their reasoning.
