I can't wait for the day when we finally get rid of these coordinated assaults on our senses, both online and in the real world. Things like Ublock Origin & SponsorBlock have opened my eyes to a world without adverts.

It might be expensive in the short term but I can't see a case for that continuing long term.

It would massively speed up your production of just about anything including other fusion reactors

This is a nation that is currently conducting a second holocaust, I don't think there's anything 'tribal' about not wanting them to have power.

What I'm getting at is giving a tyranical, abusive, genocidal country world domination vs suffering the effects of pollution and ecological collapse isn't a choice I want to make

It doesn't matter whether it's unlimited or not if it's practically free. Do you know how many manufacturing processes could become practical and how much research could be done given inexpensive energy?

There would be no need to share fusion energy, fusion energy would allow you to single handedly take over the world.

If China gets fusion energy first they will obtain unimaginable power, hell the same applies to the US. While stopping climate change would be great I also fear for what we might put in its place.

This honestly would have been the best solution, I'm Muslim and I'd like to switch it off but I'm not going to go out of my way to complain about someone else's program that I have voluntarily placed on my computer when it's clearly a valuable part of people's traditions and I can patch it myself.

I don't think software engineering is still going to be a great career in 5 years but it might be alright, although I don't think it'll matter in 10 years. I think it's important to be a generalist, don't put your eggs in one basket.
