A more sophisticated version of this algorithm adds some randomness into your walk. This gives you a better chance of meandering near the bigger hill before you start your focused, non-random climb.

Though energy may never be “too cheap to meter,” Vernon and Dourado explain that higher energy consumption directly increases economic growth. Achieving energy superabundance would radically improve the US economy as well as the quality of life for all Americans. They show us a vision of the future that includes flying cars, hyperloop, sub-orbital... See more

Molten Salt Reactors (MSRs): In MSRs, molten salt (e.g., fluoride, chloride) contains the nuclear fuel (i.e., uranium). The molten salt also acts as the coolant, and graphite rods act as the moderator. Replacing water as the coolant removes the possibility of steam explosions and the generation of flammable hydrogen gas. The nuclear reactions in... See more

I would propose that this was being done, and that it was done at the cost of sociopolitical and cultural capital. So, quite specifically, what I would say is that things like Trump phenomenon and Brexit are directly and linearly connected to the various bailouts that happened in the United States and Europe, that it was a direct subsidy of the...
