A massive nuclear fusion experiment just hit a major milestone, potentially putting us a little closer to a future of limitless clean energy.

    Just be careful. She’s known as a bit of a crank. Physics is happy to accept curmudgeons, but remember that there are more professional, experienced opinions than her’s alone.

    For ex, you’ll see she has a video on trans people with some… specious conclusions.

      I’ve personally seen little evidence of her being a crank. I’ve seen many claims and they mostly tie to her running a sort of consultation company, but no evidence of her or her firm promoting objectionable ideas. Sure she might oversimplify some topics, particularly economics and sociology. But I think her main critique in the trans video holds up… a lot of the research is poor quality and while not directly the fault of the researchers (although many of them do promote it) it is used to support hypotheses that were never tested.

        I understand. Just keep an open mind, even negative people are usually trying to contribute in a positive way the only way they know how.
