Since (gov’t funded) Hot Fusion didn’t work out so well over the last ~30 years, cold fusion is debunked?

"Forbes magazine," declared New York Times media reporter David Carr in 2009, "has long been a synonym for riches, success and a belief that business, left to its own devices, will create a better world." Amid widespread disbelief, Forbes.com is expressing enthusiastic faith in the world-transforming potential of one such device: the "energy catalyzer," or E-Cat, purported to exploit "low-energy nuclear reactions," or LENRs, as a gigantic energy-production breakthrough. How misleading. Gibbs is a blogger on Forbes.com. He isn't an employee of Forbes.

The author of your article, Steven T. Corneliussen, is a media analyst, not a scientist.

I hope the E-Cat is more successful for Forbes than the
Cue-Cat.

Forbes.com renews attention to widely disparaged low-energy nuclear reactions It's widely disparaged by those who don't want nuclear power of ANY sort, either for environmental reasons, or because they're afraid of nuclear power, and don't understand how the LENR process works. Or by folks who are just plain skeptical, because of the experience with Pons and Fleishmann, though, in their defense, they TOLD the press it wasn't ready, but their employer forced them to demonstrate it anyway. That scared people off the technology for years, simply because of the media denigration of 'cold fusion'.
I'm willing to cut the LENR folks some slack; it took a while to get to the point where fission reactors were safe and useful for the general public, even though they knew how the science and the process worked.
If private groups or individuals want to invest in this technology, that's terrific. If those who put their money at risk make a bundle off the results, even better!
