Some counter points: - You don't need to sink an aircraft carrier to mission kill it. Even one hit to the deck will probably neutralize it's ability to launch/recover aircraft. - Submarines and satellites are/will be eno

It doesn't make sense for the system not to 'grab' a big chunk of your RAM. That is what it is there for. You want stuff to be preloaded into RAM so you can access it quickly if needed. You only want to leave some of it free

If you can pump out standardized large scale reactors like France did, then they are way more efficient than these smaller reactors. The problem of course is that takes a large government to mandate a huge public project, which is not reall

One of the requirements for modern nuclear reactor design is that they are fail safe, ie cannot meltdown due to a loss of power or other malfunction.

This all seems irrelevant when the poorest 80% of Americans own about 7% of the nation's wealth. The top 1% owns 40% of the wealth. This statistic by itself would not be an existential problem if the poor weren't struggling to sur
