In Europe we have: state mandated closing of perfectly working plants, cancellation of previously granted new plants permits.
I studied civil engineering at a public university and was told "we are being asked to downsize our physics department".
In these conditions, how can I reasonably believe that state is the solution here ?
I don't disagree, but I found this funny: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r5M7Oq1PCz4 (Adam Something: Tech Bros Invented Trains and It Broke Me)
It's a monorail on two rails... But the funny part is that they label themselves as "deep tech" and the narrator is wonder what that means.
If you know there are EU grants open for "deep tech", all these weird projects start making a lot more sense. They're bleeding the states on silly ideas. At least it creates short-term jobs.
