> We have spent over 100 years going back and forth on party politics. It has done nothing to move the bar on justice.

You think there have been no advancements in "justice" since 1926? Either you are being hyperbolic, have no knowledge of history or you have a very idiosyncratic definition of justice.

AI adoption is a huge shift from labor to capital. Its history repeating, now instead of muscle power being replaced its brain power.

The amount of capex flying around requires raising funds, there have been dozens of stories recently about investors demanding higher rates for AI bonds. MSFT et al need to get their balance sheets in order to get good rates. Also, everyone is waiting for the bubble to burst, getting the house in order ahead of it is very prudent.

Seems like a disappointing result, or at least an indication that a lot more work is needed. A 2x improvement in one type and no improvement on another certainly doesn't justify the costs of space manufacturing.

Iran has also supplied ballistic missiles to Russia. Ukraine attacked a Caspian ship of Iran's that was allegedly carrying arms over the summer.

Assistance has been mutual, though lately the flow has been more from Russia to Iran. Drone improvements, targeting intelligence and missile tactics to avoid Patriot interception.

Sanitation service is expensive. It's an under valued historical victory in rich countries.

You moved the goalposts. You originally said S300/400 could down any US stealth plane. Now you are saying that S300/400 can down any US stealth plane in concert with many other capabilities.

> Russia's S300/S400 can absolutely down everything the USA has including F22 and F35 - stealth is an 'advantage' not 'cloaking device'.

Iran has (had?) S300 and maybe S400 yet downed no F35s despite many months of them in their airspace. I'm not suggesting US stealth makes the planes invulnerable but the evidence we have so far does not support your statement.

That has nothing to do with millimeter wave boring.

The first TW of solar capacity took 60 years to reach. The 2nd TW took 2 years. We've reached the inflection point.

That's many years from even attempting to make power. They've done what, a couple inches wide hole to 100 feet?

At least in the case of wind the federal government has attacked via the permitting process. That limits what states can do, cutting taxes doesn't help if you can't build at all.

And the replacements will cost less and produce more power than the originals.
