        Hmm, so it basically quotes https://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/dec/14/first-edition-nuclear-fusion , which among other things says that the energy produced by the thing is currently unusable (which is what the video quotes at 9:00)

        Still feels like a breakthrough

        They’ve sort of” – you can hear the pain of this simplification in Bluck’s voice as he speaks – “solved the physics issues, and now they’re looking squarely at the engineering issues.”

      Maybe they’re upset that this isn’t an independent replication by a different group? It’s the same facility and group reporting these results because this machine is truly one of a kind.

      Well you take a few of the letters out of the title and you can spell bullshit. I guess?
