Watch TerraPower, which will have his full attention. Nuclear energy is the cure for climate change no matter whether it is real or not or whether it is getting hotter or colder.

The first of many— in this latest wave of resignations.

Get 'em all in the same bunker. It'll cut down on the number of nukes we have to use...

Figures. I bought a chunk of Microsoft stock this morning. It closed up $20 today, but has given back about $5 in after-hours trading so far.

He wasn’t the CEO, though, so this isn’t that big a deal.

Hey Bill,

How about redirecting the “climate change” funding to science that is not crap?

Gates left in order to "dedicate more time to his philanthropic priorities including global health, development, education, and his increasing engagement in tackling climate change,"...

In other words; using his wealth to make people miserable. This is the uber-wealthy's version of the Peter Principle.
