“The nuclear waste that everyone wants to throw away can be burned with the latest TerraPower technology and used to make clean energy. One government facility in Paducah, Kentucky alone has enough. Nuclear waste produces enough electricity to last the United States for 125 years."

Bill Gates was born into a middle-class intellectual family in Seattle, USA. His father was a successful lawyer and his mother was a teacher and socialist. Gates also had a dear friend who died early on his journey to programming with him. Strong memory and efficient reading ability may be his biggest characteristics of being easy to ordinary people. He described himself as "lucky". If you feel that you are a hard worker, you can see how Bill Gates treats work and family. The first two episodes of the documentary describe Gates' upbringing.

The third episode is really good. It's hard to imagine that thinking about future energy has been answered at least in this video. Given enough time to TerraPower, energy will be very accessible and inexpensive. There are 3 things that come to my mind here. 1. About electric vehicles The near future must be the world of electric vehicles. Gasoline cars will be the configuration of ultra-luxury cars. Ordinary people can afford electric vehicles, and the energy consumption cost of travel will be extremely low, greatly improving people's travel range. 2. Real estate on Middle East oil According to a recent report by the Khaleej Times, the UAE real estate report released by Savills Middle East shows that Dubai’s housing prices fell by 6-10% in 2018 as a whole, Apartments fell the hardest, falling as much as 18 per cent. Middle East CEO Steve Morgan further stated that 2019 is expected to be down by another 5-10% on this basis.
If oil is replaced by nuclear power, what else is there in the Middle East? 3. About the computing power of btc Computing power (also called hash rate) is a unit of measure for the processing power of the Bitcoin network. That is, the speed at which the computer (CPU) calculates the output of the hash function. The Bitcoin network must perform intensive mathematical and cryptographic related operations for security purposes. For example, when the network reaches a hash rate of 10Th/s, it means it can perform 10 trillion calculations per second. In the process of obtaining Bitcoin through "mining", we need to find its corresponding solution m, and for any 64-bit hash value, to find its solution m, there is no fixed algorithm, only computer Random hash collisions, and how many hash collisions a mining machine can do per second is the representative of its "computing power", and the unit is written as hash/s, which is the so-called proof of work mechanism POW (Proof Of Work). The biggest cost of Bitcoin "mining" is electricity, which accounts for more than 75%. What would happen if nuclear power would be cheap enough? The biggest inspiration I got from watching Wall Street (1987) and Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps (2010) was where the money really is. ----- in the message . If you understand
