Not only that, but they have been saying "we'll have clean, safe fusion power in common use in twenty years" every decade since what? 1960?

Since the 1950s. It turned out that making an H-bomb was a lot easier than making a controlled thermonuclear reactor.
Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows.

Perhaps the article link below will be of some interest to you. The author seems to authoritatively demolish ITAR's claims. I conclude ITER is a world class scam perhaps even many orders of magnitude greater than Theranos. Perhaps the small scale privately funded fusion based on kinetic impact will succeed or perhaps laser pellet fusion. As for quantum computers I of course know nothing of the technology but IBM or is it Google I forgot or maybe both plans to roll out a one-thousand qubit machine soon so things are moving along so I am an optimist.
ITER is a showcase ... for the drawbacks of fusion energy - Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists[^]
PS I am surprised I have not seen this chestnut here of which I only learned today i.e. to wit in particular "A Programmer is a device which transforms coffee into code."

Smokers will do this and other dumb stuff for their fix - many Darwin Awards have been delivered thanks to cigarettes.
Examples of typical smoker behavior include smoking in bed (the source of many house fires), at the fuel pump (even the fuel pump operators do that), while handling explosives or otherwise flammable objects.
