There's potential (no pun intended) in pyroprocessing to allow extraction of uranium only, leaving behind plutonium with the rest of the HLW that is hazardous to try to steal or be sneaky with. For clarification, it's traditionall

Depends on which small modular reactor. NuScale mentioned in the article is an Integral Pressurized Water Reactor[0]. A PWR is conventional, but I am not sure where your concern stems from since PWRs and BWRs are the most common reactors in

Good question! In theory, the disk cache uses spare memory that applications are not using, so it is not guaranteed to be present if I am hosting it on a server with little-to-no free memory. However, if an application contains the cache th

I agree, it is a generous comparison, which is why I only compared "go generate" to expanding template definitions (albeit, in hindsight, even that is generous). Macro expansion is definitely a better comparison. In no way did I m
