I think the new play is energy. I think the play is, how do you supply enough energy to advance the economy. So I'm going back to picks and shovels. That means I buy land with natural gas, invest in turbine manufacturing. Anything that has to do with the grid, I'm on board for engineering firms that do this stuff. Copper as a commodity. So think of me as the guy just before the gold rush saying, "You want a pair of jeans? You want a shovel? You want a pick? I'm here." And that's what I'm gonna do for the next three years.
Robots are 3D printing full-size ship hulls! ⚓
CEAD Group is bringing large-scale robotic 3D printing to the maritime and defense world.
Instead of traditional molds and heavy manual assembly, robotic arms print full-size marine hulls directly from digital models.
The company recently demonstrated this by printing a 12-meter long vessel.
Awesome stuff!

When you turn on a light in your house, turbines can feel it!
Normally, steam turns a turbine which produces electricity.
But the grid can also PUSH BACK on the turbine itself.
And this draws MORE power from the turbine, stabilizing the grid.

The federal government is no longer treating nuclear radiation like it's some sort of magical spell. We will now take a science-based approach to radiation, just like every other potentially harmful substance on Earth.
