Did you read the article on natural fission reactors? Completely? If not, do so. It answers your question. No enrichment was necessary at the time, natural quantities were sufficient.

How low do you think it needs to be? I'd estimate no more than 1/3rd of the ESA's estimate could possibly be developers[0]. I would certainly consider less than 50,000 out of 1.4 million to be "almost nobody" for th

You're right, that would be propagating, since it's making a copy. In fact, it's also conveyance. But you forgot to keep reading GPLv3. 2. Basic Permissions. [...] You may make, run and propagate covered works that you d

Your caveat is wrong. The ESA, which has an incentive to play up the importance of the video game industry, puts the total number of people (not just developers) employed "directly or indirectly" in the US by the video game indust

What you're missing is that the copies aren't being sent to Amazon, Dropbox, or Google. They're being sent to space you are renting from those companies. You are no more propagating (another important term defined in GPLv3, w

If your problem is one of semantics, please be honest about that up-front, instead of instigating drawn-out arguments.

Ease of routing. I know optical on-chip networks have been the subject of research for many years, and I've heard rumblings of optical interconnects between chips. I don't know their current status, nor whether they look to be use

I just installed AdBlock in Chrome, via the Chrome web store, on a Windows 7 box, that has never had a Google account logged in on it. So at the moment, I see no evidence that you need one to install extensions. Even if you did need one to

Unfortunately, that's already reality in some areas with usable (though not great) LTE coverage. Having a more direct LOS to the balloon is a significant mitigating factor. There's also a factor not being noted here. The populat

Authy uses a modified form of TOTP. CloudFlare requires Authy , not a standard TOTP implementation. They make this very clear when you try to activate 2FA. Authy works as a third-party authentication provider. Their servers are in the lo

Authy necessarily has the keys on its servers in cleartext. When you integrate them into your application, you send the code the user inputs to Authy's servers for verification. Authy is a third-party authentication provider, it is not

It's about being tied to a third-party service. Currently, the one causing you a problem is Apple's. It could just as well be Authy's. With standard TOTP, you could pull out a paper backup and use it to make any TOTP app on a

A lesson, perhaps, in why it's a bad idea to lock yourself (and your customers paying you hundreds to thousands of dollars every month) into third-party services (say, Authy) in order to get basic security features for which widely-ado

Incorrect. The paragraph I quoted is 261(b). The paragraph you are talking about is 261(a)(7), part of 261(a). Note that 261(a)(7) never even uses the word "duress". Furthermore, 261(b) says "this section". The "sec
