DOGE was a joke, the DOE is not and has a proven track record of controlling nuclear material in far more challenging scenarios than some startups with enough diluted PU for a reactor. Those risks are frankly trivial compared to the ones re

Oh we have that too, it's used as high end window armor in some armored vehicles, it's called AlON (Aluminum OxyNitride). It's amazing stuff.

Trust isn’t a factor, regulations and DOE control are. You also seem to be really overestimating the amount of fissile material any one facility will have at any given time.

The US is significantly more developed and less locally corrupt than Brazil, never mind Brazil in the 1980s.

PU is toxic, but hardly uniquely toxic. All of the "UPPU" guys from the old days died of natural causes at a ripe old age so clearly mild exposure is no death sentence. As far as proliferation goes I'm not sure how... ransomw

TFA goes into some detail, with the alternative being dilution and burial. Meanwhile dilution and sale to private reactors seems far more useful given the energy that went into creating that PU in the first place, and the good it could do a

Almost every assertion made in the first paragraph is erroneous, the presentation is childish, and frankly as post-cannabis speculations go this is low-tier. And that's an attempt to be as generous as possible to the author and their w

I thought it was an obvious joke given the reference to the song! “Shlemeil, schlimazel, Hasenpfeffer incorporated”

That was Hasenpfeffer Incorporated, as per the intro song.

Once again there's a correlation with hundreds, if not thousands, of dietary, environmental and lifestyle changes in the people affected. That holds true in countries that don't routinely use HFCS too. The magic ingredients, the c

Why is seed oil the active ingredient in 40 years of change? Why not choose any other variable instead?

It’s been clear for a while to anyone without money riding on this that the relatively “easy” part fooled a lot of people into assuming that the last push to full self driving wouldn’t be radically greater challenge.

Sure, the key point here is that you die first. Squeamishness is for the living, who have increasingly desperate need of neurological medicines.

Just remember to be a good father, or things get really epic in a gothic sort of way.

It's not a great article, and it glosses over the reality that if you hooked this brain up to an EEG it would show unequivocal brain death. CELLS of the brain are alive, but in terms of being able to function in any sort of coordinated

Are you seriously claiming that building an empire didn't have a proven track record by the time of Caesar? Interesting.

That certainly explains the flood of migrants from the West to the Middle East and North Africa.

What’s your more effective, less flawed alternative with a proven track record?

It's also a portmanteau of "Stalker" and "Fan" allegedly, although my first awareness of it was the Eminem song you mentioned.

To be entirely fair the sentiment isn’t improving.

Unless you beat them without crashing once that’s not impressive in a real world context. Life doesn’t have saves to reload.

Whether or not you agree with the decision to attack Iran (for the record I DON'T agree with it) the fact remains that the conflict is ongoing. If your standard for force protection and conflict in general is that it's only import

If the only way that Japan can be clean and orderly is by abusing people for months at a time only to drop charges, you have to ask if maybe that's a problem. The conviction rate and reliance on often questionably obtained confessions

I’d argue that general anesthesia is the experiment that proves the fact. It’s a blunt and low resolution one admittedly, I wouldn’t use it to make any strong case about consciousness other than that our experience of it clearly requires co
