He mentioned the lacking of superconductors in quantum computers is standing in the way of cracking wallets in seconds right now, Sometimes people with opposing opinions offer the best insight.

I invested in a company called Watly, That produces a machine that filters contaminated water, Provides WiFi and solar electricity to rural developing communities without traditional infrastructure. After this investment I really dove down the hole of how to help people in less privileged regions. One of my favourite economists is Jeffrey Sachs, Who figured out the problem with malaria and AIDS in Sub Saharan Africa could be addressed with two weeks of pentagon budget. Sachs mostly seems to be a voice for the liberal left, And I often find myself thinking liberal people west their heart on their sleeve and their movements get misguided by protests. 

Nuclear being the path forward is a truth I have come to grapple with after listening to his podcasts. At least for the industrialised world.

Germany makes an interesting case study as they are moving away from Nuclear and back to coal, Ad doomberg talks about.
