Alternative take on Patagonia; the whole thing is a massive tax dodge; the family retain control of the trusts they've donated the money to, but avoid as much as a billion dollars in tax.
The fusion story is absolute BS. Trying to get funding by driving hype. The release itself is highly suspect- they admit their detection equipment was faulty! I’m sorry but if they believed their results they would have repeated the test under reliable/reproducible conditions. Just the usual hypemongers trying to suck more tax funded research into a black hole of false promises along with quantum computing funding and any investment at all in string theory.
