Helion is a odd one. They have picture of the site here https://www.helionenergy.com/articles/helion-secures-land-an... saying "Milestone keeps Helion on track to deliver electricity from fusion to Microsoft by 2028" but as you say they don't seem to have produced any energy and after watching Sabine's take I'm very skeptical (https://youtu.be/YxuPkDOuiM4) I think it may be a bit of a scam where they keep the investment and their jobs going as long as possible but don't produce power. | ||

> I think it may be a bit of a scam where they keep the investment and their jobs going as long as possible but don't produce power. There may be some of that, but I think a lot of it is people who believe in what they're doing. A good example in another field is Stockton Rush and his submarine - assuming he wasn't suicidal, he clearly believed in what he was doing, even though to any sane and informed outsider it was fundamentally and life-threateningly flawed. | ||
