Man the internet is wild. I say MS probably has a plan to profit from AI based on their 20 year contract for nuclear power and you guys are like “but Enron failed!” Holy fuck ya really reaching to pick those cherries now

Your blithe trust in capital fails to be endearing.

it’s weird that Enron of all things was the line for them

I'm also impressed that the bailey they retreat into ('I just said that they would have a plan to make money over 20 years') is just as badly defendable as the motte 'they must be making money'. Quality work.

There's a full cherry tree, you can pick as many cherries as you can eat.

has a plan to profit

You say "plan" but I think what you really mean is that Satya crossed his fingers and hoped for the best
