Sure, 2% (1765MW) of France's production is coal at the moment. It does not matter that plants are in maintenance, that is the normal state of complex systems like nuclear plants and a very desirable one. Sure, we could do better and c

Sure, at the time of writing, 62% of France's production of electricity is nuclear. We're importing 9392MW also.

Non profit does not mean that it do not have to pay taxes on the money it manipulates. Non profit orgs receive services from the state and they have a cost to fund social security and such. Other non profits which do not have a very nice si

> It is not obvious that nuclear energy can be a widespread, long term alternative for most of the world economies. This problem is also known as nuclear proliferation and, as far as I know, is known to people building nuclear reactors.

Scaling nuclear power supplies to 100% of global primary energy would change the economics of extraction, do you claim you can predict these things? BTW, scaling it to 100 % is not necessary. AFAIK, THTR-300 is only one of the different bre

FWIW, according to your own links. > Uranium-235 is a finite non-renewable resource.[1][3] > As of 2017, identified uranium reserves recoverable at US$130/kg were 6.14 million tons (compared to 5.72 million tons in 2015). At th

You write down that you have no router, though your primary US location is connected to a "quintuple-homed network" and all global locations are at least triple-homed. What does that mean exactly? Is your IP provider quintuple-hom

It is such a shame that we have, in 2021, no way to perform secure computations in untrusted environment. Signal at least had the decency to try for Secure Value Recovery even if Intel SGX as a technology is not really mature. So, what is t

There are actual plugins for AWS, Hetzner, GCP and Azure (on an old version of NixOps) and it's quite easy to add support for your favorite cloud if there is a decent usable API.

The question was more like, have you explored running servers with actual open hardware such as RISC-V CPUs, Alibaba seems to be putting out a non-toy RV64GC ( https://conferences.computer.org/isca/pdfs/ISCA2020-4Ql

What does that mean to have an open hardware cloud when your CPUs looks like to be Intel hardware which AFAIK is not open ? Do you have RISC-V or any open ISA CPU servers? Is secure boot / TPM available with open implementations on you

To be fair, I'm not in cryptography engineering and had to understand all those details for an implementation security review. But I completely agree on the block cipher modes thing, a lot of people don't realize what they are doi

There is something called nixpart: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpart but it's very immature as per as https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/21403 All help is welcomed :).

Wow. In France, home ISP give you a /64 generally (Free for example, known for Online/Scaleway). I think 80 % of their fiber deployments comes with IPv6 enabled now. And in few years, it should be 100 %.

No, it's really not the same thing. You have a very weak reproducibility which relies on Docker's implementation details and a lot of impurities. In contrary, NixOS has very fine-grained reproducibility (and is not perfect of cour

Every answer here are super good and I agree with most of them. What I would add is: Try to find a way to make it easy to test a lot of things, for example, get yourself a good environment to do kernel development with automatic virtualizat

Is there any particular difference with https://nixos.org/nix/ which is backed by academia and has years of experience? Never heard about Timeless though. FWIW, I'm using Nix to package Android app builds in a rep

Depends on your country, but I suppose it has to do with theoretical computer science at the master level, you can see a lot of academic content around this (in Paris, France for example): https://wikimpri.dptinfo.ens-cachan.fr&#

I agree that systemd is great. What I find a bit sad is the governance model for the contributing side [1], [2], [3] (which are linked in the article anyway). Why so much harshness on something which makes sense (CVE)? [1]: https:/&#x

While your argument makes sense, I just want to point out that laptops for maths, engineering and science are not useless if you type sufficiently fast [1] and "master" [2] LaTeX. And I know of one person who actually does it in c
