Future of Humanity Institute shuts down
It's because the "if it hasn't been done, it can't be done" argument applies to nuclear displacing fossil fuels. Remember, the decarbonization goal has to be all uses of fossil fuels, not just their use for the grid.

I honestly think we have crossed wires. I don't think anyone here is saying things can't be done based on history.

I have repeatedly and literally seen this argument applied to renewables. I've even seen it on HN.
