For sure. We need to stop talking about huge corporations and the ultra wealthy and their insane, planet poisoning emissions, and start focusing on how to make ourselves more comfortable as we die.

It's time to stop worrying about "fixing" any of this, and move on to hospice care.

AI researcher "wisdom" as basis for the article? Check Wall Street Journal article about how "Europe is dying" because of Renewables. Check. I thought Vox was a good source in the past, but now I'm not so sure. And I AGREE with the thesis in the title of this article.
