Nobody said we did apart from you mentioning it.
Last I looked, most of the population of this planet live outside America. And they use energy too.
It takes 20-25 years to go from deciding to build a nuclear to actually getting the power out
According to the IAEA data, the average construction time for plants with nominal power below 800 MWe is about 71 months, while for higher power reactors, the construction time increases about 8 months for each increase of 100 MWe in power.
This electric vehicle mania would die on the vine if anyone actually looked at the details and the government didn't distort the market.
Actually, Tesla has gotten ZERO government EV subsidies in the last 2 years, yet Tesla sold twice as many EV’s as the rest of the car manufacturers combined. And Tesla is making very good profits right now.
One could always just give up and die I suppose.
Or try and preempt all that and do what Musk is doing.
There must be more to the story than “he eventually had to quit” that explains why it is so bad to work for Musk.
Elon knows how much it sucks to run a car company in the bay area. There are a lot of people like him that thought Robots can do everything and you won’t need people.
He wouldn’t be moving to TX if he still believed what he believed 10 years ago and now realizes fanboy love only goes so far.
We are watching Elon change before our eyes. It may be an attempt to get new fanboys, but the ones he is now going after are the “trust but verify” type.
And while we’re at it, Pompeo’s not our friend either.
Maybe just build housing here to survive nuclear war. Building it on Mars is dumb. The environment on mars is as lethal for humans as a nuked earth is.
It ain't the kind of place to raise your kids.
I wonder how many ‘experts’ on Musk bothered to view the interview he did with a crew from the Babylon Bee?
FULL INTERVIEW: Elon Musk Sits Down With The Babylon Bee

Yep
Who is the conservatives friend?
Plenty of billionaires have built such houses. Some in New Zealand. But um, will the houses even work in case of nuclear war?
And what lives will they lead in a nuclear waste earth if they decide to crawl out of their bunkers?
lake mead will dry up in 15 years
Yeah, using this Hydrino reactor process:
In an application like this:
There certainly is, but I don't feel like being berated again over something that doesn't matter very much to me.
You know they cant crawl out of a mars bunker either….
They will take care of all that before anyone goes to Mars, just like we did for the Moon.
They are hard at work on it right now and have been working on it for a very long time.
Then your comment about Elon Musk being terrible to work for lacks any context.
If you can’t say any reason he “eventually had to quit” then your contention that Musk is terrible is a gratuitous assertion.
That which can be argued without evidence can equally be dismissed without evidence.
[full disclosure - I have a family member that works for SpaceX and says it is a dream job.]
I watched that interview. It was great.
I know two people that went to work Tesla in Fremont in the last year. One is a 10 year True Believer that probably has $7M in Tesla stock and has spent vacation time lobbying congress about Climate Change with Sheldon Whitehouse. The other is an Indian American that has no problem living 3 families to a house.
Both are “ideal” Tesla employees.
If you are 10+ years out of College automotive engineer, you would probaby be happier in Tennessee.
Lol….okay
