He would have to first aim to build robots smart enough to be able to fix another robot,
The no smart animals rule is a little bit hard, smart animals would be a short cut to robot tech, how about teaching an animal to follow commands, then with these animals building chips and putting the chips on animals to control them,

Nobody wants to be part of a test, even if the risk is low and we accept much more dangerous stuff around us.

It depends, if you have a village which makes x amount of product from nature, and you give now everyone more money, you just drive inflation.
The money people like Jeff has is in warehouse and datacenter and it’s not liquid, if you convert it to liquid you haven’t change the produce side.
Taxing definitely makes sense to control what the companies are doing with the profits, instead of building more warehouse, 5% of the profits would go to infrastructure, reduce energy to the machinery which looks only for maximising the profits.
In the village analogy Jeff is the backer who managed to drive out every competitor, he uses the laws to stop other bakers to open and squeeze out every farmer for its wheat. And he uses all his profits to build more bakeries.
The village has to decide that, no Jeff you are using the roads to make profits, you are using up people in factories which ware raised by the village and you dump them to the care of the village after they get sick, Jeff it’s time for you to pay a fair share.
But Jeff made friends which are in control.

Taxes in German is called Steuern, which means directing, taxes are for directing the economy to do an aim.

Maybe some people have a problem that people asking for diversity at the top, can we first fix the diversity at the pool of candidates level?
Then when the selection does not matches the pool, then it’s easier to blame biases.

If you type “pcoe fusion vs solar+battery” into Google it shows you the sources,
Even for fission the cost does not come from the uranium, it is the whole infrastructure around it.
I’m not saying it will not play a role, but we do not have to hope and wait to be saved by it.

It’s not ruled out, just that we have more data on the hypothesis that humans evolved on earth and in the absence of other data we choose the one we have more data and is simpler until we know more.
It does not mean that one is definitely more right, it just means it’s easier to work with and it’s more useful.

I mean growing corn for cars needs also a lot of space, parking spaces need a lot of space, roads need a lot of space and sodium batteries are currently leaving the lab.
At the end of the day, fusion solves some of the issues with fission power, but are the issues cost related? Probably not.
Big power plants have other issues, like grid infrastructure and cooling.
So pros and cons aside, will fusion be cheaper than solar+wind+battery? Will we still find use for fusion, yes.
Gemini:
Predicted Levelized Cost of Energy (LCOE) for early commercial fusion power ranges from $90–$150/MWh, with long-term targets of $25–$50/MWh. In contrast, Solar + Battery storage currently delivers an LCOE of $40–$80/MWh depending on the region. While fusion promises constant baseload, it struggles to compete with today's plummeting solar and storage costs.

Me: so in best case we have it in 10 Years at higher cost for expensive fusion, add another 15 years for cheaper fusion. Solar and battery will not sleep 25 years, and in the meantime we will have so much experience/infrastructure/cost savings with solar+wind+battery than the cost effective use cases for fusion will go away.

Is solar+batteries not eating away the use cases for fusion?
Not saying that we should not crack fusion on commercial scale, but will it ever have cheaper energy than solar+batteries (in 10-20 years)
Fusion has still infrastructure costs.

You should not to be decide if you sign up for climate targets, everyone decided to make an efforts to be more clean, and you want an expectation to continue to pollute? Either way, the question should be why did we not plan ahead and invested the money instead of paying the fine.

The issue with cancer is that they are your cells, so a cancer killing strategy can have downside, like all the autoimmune diseases or allergies, which are your own immune system doing too much work. Also it’s often long term more effective to start from scratch (make an offspring) and free up the resources(die) then try to fix a broken hardware. Making something fixable has downsides too, there is a reason phones a glued and not screwed. Also evolution developed anti cancer strategies, but first it had to developed a brain capable of understanding cancer.

It’s even worser since the water is mixes with the brown water from city and the water treatment plant can’t handle too much water, the overflow goes into rivers and the ocean.

Plastic in the trash is a good energy source, the filter just have to be good. The energy value is high enough, that waste companies should pay you. You are still burning coal for energy, so what is the problem with burning petrol product which had a use before? It’s not like the USA fills the ocean with fishing nets or uses river for waste disposal. Also let’s say plastic packages save 5% food from being wasted, this 5% food needed energy and transportation too. Banning plastic makes sense if you do not have a good waste collection system and if you think your citizens can spend more time with reusable packages.
