If your US datacenter melts down under a nuclear war, I can guarantee that none of your devs will give a damn about contributing to the code base.
You might want to modify your scenarios.
- granda 9y agoAs someone interested in these scenarios, where could I find out more information about what would happen post-nuclear explosion?
- groby_b 9y agoA lot of this is out in the open There are active simulations going on: http://www.sciencerecorder.com/article.php?n=scientists-conduct-computer-simulation-to-see-the-response-to-nuclear-attack&id=122164 http://www.sciencerecorder.com/article.php?n=scientists-cond... There are preparedness drills: http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/new-york-nuclear-attack-drills-manhattan-north-korea-bomb-threat-trump-a7704516.html http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics... There's plenty of policy analysis: https://www.cato.org/publications/policy-analysis/social-economic-effects-nuclear-war https://www.cato.org/publications/policy-analysis/social-eco... Older .mil reports: http://www.dtic.mil/cgi-bin/GetTRDoc?AD=ADA080907 http://www.dtic.mil/cgi-bin/GetTRDoc?AD=ADA080907 There are entire books taking apart what happens in specific fields: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK219154/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK219154/ Or you could just read disaster porn^W^W post-apocalyptic sci fi. So, a lot depends on what kinds of info you want to find. But overall, I'd say it's not worth reading, because life's not going to be much fun. Even if you're prepared.
- brodock 9y agoit depends on your SLA ;)
- jessaustin 9y agoIn that event, how much would your "guarantee" be worth? b^)
