This is concerning because I have to work in the industry for at least a year, or else I have to pay back all the money. Now that some are insisting that baseline power generation could become obsolete, I could be going into a doomed and dying industry.

All my life, I thought that nuclear would be the cure to most of our ills associated with our power grid, but as we move towards renewables with battery arrays, I could be dead wrong. No one will ever stop going full NIMBY towards it, and it will be forever strangled by bureaucracy.

Fuck.

I don't know. I just hope those arrogant assholes aren't actually right about their predictions. As a car enthusiast, I would be more comfortable with Tesla and other EVs if being interested in them didn't apparently mean that I have to discard all traditional notions of cars and car culture, all thanks to their fans.
They've also been saying that baseload power stations will be obsolete thanks to solar and batteries. As someone who would like the public to stop being scared of nuclear power, this is a little distressing.
I would like to ignore them, but then I could end up being that guy who thought that automobiles would,never catch on.
