@scaryjellomj Can you give me your run down on why Aalo specifically won’t pencil. I’ve read solid critiques of the economics of all the others, but my non-nerd understanding and sense from ppl smarter than me is that Aalo made some credible design decisions that could make lcoe pencil
Usually don't spout off on stuff like this but serious people need to stop giving this stuff airtime.
Bill & Melinda Gates foundation: helped launch Gavi, whose vaccination programs have reached more than 1.2 billion children and modelled 20.6 million future deaths averted, while also becoming a major funder of global polio, HIV, TB and malaria efforts. Those partnerships helped cut wild polio by 99.9%, and the Global Fund reports 70 million lives saved (tbf though neither figure is attributable to Gates alone but obvi contributing).
Crypto Guy: promotes the future of finance but really just degenerate speculation on financial assets thus far
But to have this type of dismissive attitude when in a position of far less positive impact is asinine. we must stop over-intellectualizing bad takes just cause there might be *some* truth to *some* portion of the industry. there's good and bad with anything. some portion of charities doing things stupid of inefficient don't write off all the good others do.
