Maybe at some point the Americans will get scared that the Chinese are actually making strides ahead of them in electrification and decarbonization to actually get unstuck from their idiotic culture war over fossil fuels.
America will stop trying to sell oil when it runs out of oil and not one second before, no matter the actual cost.
and will lash out for being behind for as long as they still have guns
Oh, Amerikans would sooner nuke themselves than even consider uncoupling themselves from fossil fuel. All Amerikans care about is "profit uber alles"; they'd rather choke to death on smog and fracking run-off than ever admit Chinese STEM is beating theirs by every conceivable metric.
Eh take news from China with a Giga size grain of salt.
I don't know about this particular piece of news, but the insane expansion of HSR for example is no fake news.
As opposed to news from the united states, which is certified good and true and democratic
It will take a new space race for that to happen.
The space race is on. That’s why Starship has been launching so much. Someone at the FAA must have finally realized that if SpaceX doesn’t go ahead at full SpaceX speed, we’re gonna see China take over space.
They’ve got a space station and a rover on the moon. China will easily overtake us in space, has already in a few places.
To the best of my knowledge, this is the first commercially-funded (i.e., non-government) nuclear fusion reactor. Notable investors are MiHoYo (developers of Genshin Impact), Nio (Chinese EV company), and Sequoia Capital...
In your guys opinion, is that good or bad? Privately funded would mean proprietary & profit driven implementation for such a crucial technology (if successful). I personally don't like it.
The CPC still maintains a lot of influence over companies even when they're getting their funding from private industry as part of their "politics in command" strategy for controlling market forces. We'll see how it plays out.
Yep, if they need to disappear a CEO, no matter how big, they can and have done so in the past.
Won't somebody think of the CEOs!
i don't know why you got a downvote, disappearinga CEO should be the most popular thing the ccp does
Not to an Amerikan cosplay-capitalist lmfao. (I call them cosplay-capitalists because not a one actually owns capital; they just lap at the scraps that fall on the low-quarters of the c-suites they worship.)
good
The billionaires deserve it tbh
Any path that takes us to unlimited clean energy is the right one IMO. We could always do a little espionage and make our own domestic fusion drive eventually.
No??
I've supported engineering at several privately funded nuclear fusion companies, though all of them, this Chinese company included, are building a product out of public school research.
Off the top of my head there's:
And several more...
It is not the first commercially funded fusion reactor even assuming this qualified.

Not hard to find a bunch.
In the image of the discharge you can clearly see that the device has no cladding. That means a discharge would be limited to a duration of a few seconds, otherwise the material ablated from the wall would lead to extreme heat losses of the plasma. Did they include a future vessel cladding to the plasma volume calculation in the article?
