The legal limit for plutonium is 0, so the meme is technically correct, which, as we all know, is the best kind of correct.

You don’t say! I got lucky and got a nice 2nd hand RBMK-1000 at 3.2GW, so brownouts due to high speed shitposting should be a thing of the past.

I am sorry for being late, but I would love to say that the no 0.3Wh vs yes nuclear plant would be just perfect.

The backdoor birth isn’t the worst, the front one is truly nightmarish. Sounding, but far more extreme.
- Comment on A massive Wyoming data center will soon use 5x more power than the state's human occupants - but no one knows who is using it 1 month ago:
The classic definition of workstation is “immensely powerful, probably tweaked single user production computer”, which can of course be racked and remotely accessed, but we’re talking late 90s then.

OK kids, one more time. Repeat after me: Cloud is just someone else’s computer.
- Comment on DNS security is important but DNSSEC may be a failed experiment 2 months ago:
Nice opinion piece, but I disagree with the core idea that dnssec’s biggest problem is visibility (also, there hasn’t been any padlock icon in years in browsers). IMHO we have 3 main drivers that made https a success, and dnnsec (and smtps) not:
- enforced by browsers: while you could file it under “visibility”, the difference to me is that browsers refuse to load your site without https. If they had resorted to a mere red address bar, https would never really have taken off.
- ”atomic”: a site with failed https is only 1 failed site. Other sites, APIs, mail servers etc under the same domain will still work.
- DNSSEC is HARD. Yes, your dns./website provider makes it look easy but really, this stuff is seriously hard to do right now, and there is little tooling to help you with it; the same reason smtps (and maybe ipv6) failed so hard, I think.

You and me both, my friend… remember Balding Elon Musk? I think it’s not so much the lack of hair, more like the lack of ethics.

As a tactic to impress women, it must be the absolute worst. What do these guys think???
- Comment on Converting numbers is easy 3 months ago:
This. I always thought the columns were named, not numbered; this would make it easier for regular humans to work with Excel because of the similarities with a chess board. The original developers would probably have chosen matrix style coordinates in hindsight though.

- Comment on UK fusion reactor dream gets another £2.5 billion from gov't 3 months ago:
Also, I think the Register’s point was not about feasibility or profitability even, but more that no one at STEP can explain where the money is going at all; it might be research and reactor, but just as well shiny new macbooks as a New Year’s present for everyone and ’is mum.
- Comment on UK fusion reactor dream gets another £2.5 billion from gov't 3 months ago:
Cold fusion is a different and entirely mythical idea.
And I agree, I meant that I’ve heard both hot and cold fusion predicted.
- Comment on UK fusion reactor dream gets another £2.5 billion from gov't 3 months ago:
Be that as it may, I’ve been hearing that (cold) fusion is just 30 years away for about 40 years now. I appreciate the effort but simply burning money would probably have generated lots more energy than fusion.
Grumpy whining aside, the problem here isn’t the expensive research per se, but more that STEP can’t explain where all the money is going into:As for what STEP has done to encourage that added investment, that’s anyone’s guess - by all accounts it doesn’t seem like a lot has happened with the project of late.
