Shear Modulus posted:seems like the big money is suddenly going all in on nuclear in like the past year. would have been nice if it was 50 years earlier. I'm assuming it's a similar situation to spaceflight where there's been some inflection point of technology advancement/an absolute rear end load of cash floating around where it's no longer purely in the realm of nation-states to pursue

I guess maybe the small reactor thing that was being touted a few years ago actually works? I'm certainly for more nuclear power than coal or whatever.

liberals claiming a president trying to do literally anything other than nothing is despotism is the same thing as people who claim that taking a single dollar from police or criticizing them in any way is a world without police where criminals murder at will unopposed

HallelujahLee posted:abortion alone isnt enough to win because thats not the only thing on the ballot in 2024, it would help if maybe they actually did anything in past 4-5 decades to codify abortion they could point to that at least but nope It's not on the ballot in 2024. We recessed on that until like 2038 the day Trump took office and pretending otherwise hasn't been productive for a minute. No amount of sitting on your hands and muttering "there's no way they'd do that" and "what about decorum" is going to alter our trajectory.

biceps crimes posted:imagining MBA dweebs, stanford ghouls, techbro bugmen and web 3.0 grifters all focusing intently on growth-hacking nuclear energy The entire concept of "growth hacking" and all the people who espouse it produce a dramatic increase in the latent Satsui No Hado energy warring within my soul. It's so infuriatingly braindead and greedy; nothing should be sustainable or deliberate or durable, EVERYTHING worth doing MUST have a secret switch you can flip that makes it ten, no, a HUNDRED times more valuable overnight!!! Nothing for which this is improbable or impossible is worthy of acknowledgement! The loving hubris of it, too. This mindset that the only reason any given thing isn't making hockey stick returns is because it simply hasn't encountered a VC tHoUghT LeAdEr with main character syndrome who read the correct combination of growth mindset self help trash. loving hell I need to go pet my cat, I'm riled up!!

I'm certainly for more nuclear power than coal or whatever. in theory small reactors work in reality where everything is grift and bullshit, hardware designed by committee and engineering decisions made by shareholder fiat can turn any foolproof technology into a disaster
