so it's a negative view when one does not go along with all the hype?
i followed iter's snail pace progress many years before you even knew does it exists

You also have to understand that the more hype and news stories an organization gets the more likely they are to get funding. NEVER take science from the organization that is performing the experiments in a hot field. That's the very reason we have peer review, because they have an incentive to create false hype for funding.

The "Hype" -- what hype -I think that is something you're assuming, like your previous opinion.



One of the most respected international journalists mention this, so he's part of the "propaganda machine on fission technology" - um are you really that stupid? I can imagine your stick in the mud attitude back in 1962 when JFK announced plans to go to the moon. What a retard eh? - talking about all the hype and propaganda, I mean he's not a scientist in a peer reviewed journal.......

Much people are saying Iter is useless (maybe it's true, i dont know)
But sure thing is at least they arent producing mysterious videos saying they nerly solved the fusion problem but dont want to explain how (aka Tri Alpha Energy)

Who is saying Iter is useless - nuclear fission propagandists?

I don't know why I expected any different from the one with his own scale of stupid

The scale of stupid is about how I feel about you, you'll always have a special place on it.

Abstract
Estimates of energy supply versus consumption indicate the middle of this century as the critical point when world energy supply
will no longer keep pace with the demand. The demand grows inexorably because of both the world population growth as well as
the growth of average per capita energy consumption. Technological and economic progress are closely correlated with per capita
energy consumption. Hence the inadequacy of energy supplies will limit the progress of human civilization, stifling its soaring
spirit. Conservationism, making incremental improvements in this situation, is completely inadequate. What is needed is a giant
step - the development of a new, limitless, clean source of energy - nuclear fusion energy. Nuclear fusion technology, when
perfected to fusion-burn only deuterium, will have a fuel supply lasting millions of year, even with continuing energy consumption
growth as in the past. Intensive efforts in five decades of Tokamak research has advanced the fusion product up by 107
times, to the point when breakeven is only a step away. The next step necessarily involves international collaboration on an unprecedented scale in ITER- the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor, on which work has started in Cadarache France. ITER and later
Demo are envisioned to bring online the first commercial nuclear fusion energy reactor by 2050.
