The United States has tethered 16% of its entire economic output to the fortunes of a single company

Yeah, this article should compare nVidia's revenue to the US GDP (both measure of annual production). But we know why they aren't, as it wouldn't produce an alarming stat.

And to be clear, this stat is simply factually wrong. nVidia IS NOT 16% of US output. They sold $165B last year, US GDP is $29.2T. This means the US has tethered.... 0.5% of their economic output to one company. Not 16%, zero-point-five-percent.

People who are happy to not take a political stance on everything, particularly in their professional life, is good.

Evaporating water and condensing it has been done. We don't use this method for desalination since it is more energy intensive (read expensive) than reverse osmosis, which itself is also quite energy intensive.
