Oh look at that. The author, Steven E. Koonin, was employed by BP as their Chief Scientist. Then he was in the department of energy during Obama’s administration.

I’m sure he doesn’t have a vested interest in oil though.

The energy transition’s purported climate benefits are distant, vague and uncertain while the costs and disruption of rapid decarbonization are immediate and substantial.

Yeah… No conflict of interest here at all.

Yep. They didn’t say anything about sharing those riches with anyone.

Same energy as him holding that Bible. The people who believe this weren’t ever gonna question him anyways.

No audience. Applause button shouldn’t be necessary

Just clocked out. What did I miss?

I get that. And I self host the things I care about. But for the average layman? I don’t see self hosting as a real option. Unless you are decently tech savvy, and have an aptitude for troubleshooting, most people aren’t gonna put in the time or effort of initial setup. Even if maintenance is minimal once it’s running. That first leap into self-hosted is daunting.

For real. This is a straight path. No turning necessary.
