Underground nuclear reactors proposed by Deep Fission to power data centres for the AI Cambrian explosion may settle the question about renewables. Nuclear is the future and

Spice (data) it seems will settle many a question in the birth of the new world. Big Tech are considering going nuclear and BTC mining may go in the same direction as nation-states consider strategic reserves.

Vast swathes of the Old Islamicate are about to be left behind yet again as we stand on the cusp of a new horrific birth - there are too few ready to seize opportunity.

Skipping the industrialization phase and going straight to digital power would work for states with smaller populations but the ones with larger populations still need to properly industrialize in addition to developing the digital economy.

You can’t have an extraction based economy and import everything and then wonder why no one takes you seriously on the international stage.

They are not mutually exclusive though, the larger countries can tech-max and open up the factories.
