China is crazy. You could quit big tech, move into a dilapidated leaky Chengdu rooftop shack, train AI models as a freelancer, and still end up doing food delivery at night just to make rent.

global solar build out is already at ~55GW per month on average. at current growth rates this will double by 2030. name another power source that can grow at that rate. you can't. even if you remove ALL regulations, it's really hard for large mechanical heat engines to economically beat a modular sheet of silicon and glass sitting in the sun. it's basically macrotech vs nanotech. vacuum tubes vs nanoscale silicon transistors.


im really pushing it today now im telling you fiction has the same ontological status as scientific models lmao


Im surprised tech doesn’t do more challenge coins these are awesome
