    There’s been a toxic positivity in battery development news. It comes so often, and the results seemingly never appearing, that people wave off every advancement.

    I’ve seen people argue that there is no advancement at all (there certainly has been), or that sodium batteries won’t happen (you can already buy them). This is completely ignorant, but there’s a reason people feel it’s correct.

    Leaks over to renewable tech, too. Saw one guy argue we’d run out of pervskovites for solar panels.
