Sadly, the US killed the IFR program just as it was about to be completed.

Quotes from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...

IFRs use virtually all of the energy content in the uranium fuel whereas a traditional light water reactor uses less than 0.65% of the energy in mined uranium, and less than 5% of the energy in enriched uranium.

In 2001, as part of the Generation IV roadmap, the DOE tasked a 242-person team of scientists from DOE, UC Berkeley, MIT, Stanford, ANL, LLNL, Toshiba, Westinghouse, Duke, EPRI, and other institutions to evaluate 19 of the best reactor designs on 27 different criteria. The IFR ranked #1 in their study which was released April 9, 2002.

Despite support for the reactor by then-Rep. Richard Durbin (D, IL) and U.S. Senators Carol Mosley Braun (D, IL) and Paul Simon (D, IL), funding for the reactor was slashed, and it was ultimately canceled in 1994 by S.Amdt. 2127 to H.R. 4506, at greater cost than finishing it. When this was brought to President Clinton's attention, he said "I know; it's a symbol."

Will we be able to use a holophone while holoporting across the globe? Or will having a holo-something inside another holo-something open a hole in the space-time continuum?

Imho its even worse.

I'm concerned that they'll teach coding the same way that many schools teach math. Reinvent the paradigms every few years, require extensive retraining of all the latest teachers in the latest paradigm, and care more about the fad than about the basic skills.

For reference, I've linked to Tom Lehrer's "New Math" song:

              https://www.youtube.com/watch?...

And one must remember:

            The important thing is to understand what you're doing, and not to get the right answer.

I'm afraid I've been dealing with the results of changing fads in math, and in programming classes, for decades.

Eat now. For great dear reader, eat this

Or it could be caused by the non existence of the "Kupiter Belt", and these fucked up propagandists are doing what they always do: Try to fit an observation into the "established" understanding rather than question whether their understanding is wrong. Too bad we don't have many space scientists anymore, just cheerleaders for the unfounded "dirty snowballs" hypothesis.

Hint: The comets we've been to are hard, dry, hot (when near the sun) and irregular shaped bodies of rock, apparently not products of aeons of collisions (which would have rounded them) and clearly not aggregations of ice covered with dirt. Cometary tails are formed by charged particles that glows due to the same process that causes the Aurora Borealis.

How do they work?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?... (in case you don't know the source)

Here's a FAR better video than whatever was linked in the article: https://www.youtube.com/watch?... Someone went into a cave and filmed the fish. What I *liked* about it is it shows it is actually crawling/walking/scaling instead of maybe using its fins as possible spoilers to generate a downward force to keep it on the rock as water flows over it. Maybe someone can post this video instead to the article instead?

Here's the video shown in the article linked: https://www.youtube.com/watch?... Shows pictures and closely-cut videos of nothing walking. Unless I'm missing something? Full disclosure, I'm very much a creationist/Christian, but how does that factor here? Although I have a bias - in this case, I think it's fair to say my bias is: "I see nothing in the video supporting the claims they are making - regardless of their bias, my bias, or any bias" Could someone point out to me what I'm missing?

There is not a single candidate in the main parties who isn't part of the 1%, or just short of it. Please use another argument to defend your beliefs, as this one doesn't much mean anything.

The Clintons owned a $13 million mansion, how is that not 1% territory?

I personally don't think Trump will be a good president. In my opinion, diplomacy is what makes or breaks a president, which is why I think Reagan was a good president, even though I disagree with a lot of things he did, such as the war on drugs. ("Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!") Other than diplomacy, every president doesn't seem to change much from the previous. That said, Trump will probably do poorly here.

However I'm tempted to vote for him anyways just because of how much of an ass anti-Trump protesters are:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?...

Also, my brother casually mentioned in his office that Trump and Bernie supporters were arguing a lot, and somehow or another one of his coworkers interpreted him as being a Trump supporter, sent him a bunch of emails about how he's a racist, and reported him to HR. No joke.

Now we can have nicely accelerated VR linux desktops. https://www.youtube.com/watch?... https://github.com/evil0sheep/...

Nice conspiracy theory. Its bullshit of course.

Trump is everything the republican leaders and fox have been banging on about for years. He's a "washington outsider," he's a "businessman," he's a "job creator," he's not "politically correct." He keeps telling people how america is in terrible shape, just like the republicans have been since Obama took office. Also the xenophobia about brown people has been a party plank since the southern strategy. They loved him when he was leading the birther charge on Obama. He's been doing speeches at CPAC every year since at least 2011.

He's literally everything the republican party has been selling to their base. He's no dummy candidate, he's the personification of their wishes.

Trump is more consistent than anyone.

Trump has been saying the same things he's saying now for decades. Above vid is from 1988, saying the same things he wrote a book about, and is saying on the campaign trail.

Socialism is snake oil. We don't need a socialist president. If you like socialism so much, go live in a socialist nation, I say.

You're regurgitating propaganda. Prove your libelous claims. I dare you.

Well the M&M does want to replace those sold of assets with something, a huge mega bonus for herself as a result of pumped up profits for those quarters that incorporate those sales. You sell something, you make money, even though what you sold will no longer make you money, but this quarters profits are huge and so are your bonuses. Yeah pretty much a scam, organised by champions of the Peter Principle, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/..., perhaps we can now call it M&M principle https://www.youtube.com/watch?..., why do those idiots so much remind me of the typical corporate executive when it comes to proper business plans, rather than managing scams to enrich themselves and hide their incompetence.

It was The Simpsons, on the episode where Homer went to space, and busted the ant colony experiment. Some ants got in front of the camera and the reporter thought giant ants were invading Earth. Hence the original quote, "I, for one, welcome our Insect Overlords", which became a slashdot meme: "I, for one, welcome our $X overlords".

Turn in your geek card.

If you limit NPR's sponcers to federal backing, then they'll (continue to) be the fed's bitches.

Donations from private individuals only is the way to go. Here's a podcast that uses the donation only model and calls BS on NPR et. al. shenanigans.

They have no government or corporate sponsors so they can say things that no one else can. Another podcast trying (but somewhat failing) to do the same thing is The Daily Tech News Show (but they got fucked into partnering with the frog pants network).

Seriosly, NPR and PBS are about as ethical as any other propaganda. Let them do whatever they want, just don't expect credibility. Which is to say, take everything they put out with a grain of salt and do your own damn fact checking (you won't, lazy good for nothing normals).

hire people to write a bunch of new bugs on top of the framework that does the actual work.

That made me lol. It holds true all the way from Excel power users to the EEs who design the chip circuits. There's a kind of recursive irony in the fact that the EE cannot design a modern cpu without the aid of modern CAD/CAM tools.

The guy in TFA sounds like an "ideas man", ie: an expert in wishful thinking, exactly who does he think will create his code-less utopian future? Having said that I think he has a point buried under his poor choice of words. There is a tendency for geeks to dismiss philosophy, art, music, literature, as enjoyable but impractical pursuits which is odd since most of the great mathematical/scientific minds of the last 500yrs have not only cherished these things but they have also contributed heavily to their content and growth.

Art and Science are bedfellows that feed off each other, Science itself is a philosophy based on the faith that the real world exists outside of our own thought processes, religion is wishful thinking combined with a lack of imagination.

This isn't a government mandated block. A private company took the largest ISPs to court and got an injunction requiring them to block a long list of web sites. Smaller ISPs are unaffected.

The correct course of action would for that company to now ask for an injunction against this guy, asking the court to make him stop providing proxies to bypass the other blocks. Instead, they got their private police force, the City of London Police, to treat him as a criminal. If you were not aware, the City of London is a small area in London that is basically run by corporations. Corporations get to vote on their elected officials, and the City of London Police basically work for them.

This is extreme abuse of power by the City of London Police.

City of London != London.

The City of London is a small area dominated by business. Historically, it IS London, founded by time immemorial (no one knows when it was founded), and basically existed when England was formed, so the monarchy never could really control them. There is basically an uneasy tension - the City of London agreed to certain terms in order to get certain benefits but they pretty much have autonomy. Later monarchies didn't like this, and they created Westminster to be the power center. Westminster expanded and expanded, encompassing London, to become what we know today as London (Greater London), while the original London is known as the City of London. I'm pretty sure the original intent was to basically have the whole area called Westminster and thus getting rid of London, but history.

And because of the way things were, the City of London has around 30,000 residents, but over 2M people actually work there This results in companies actually having voting rights and control over the governance.

Even today, the City of London is really an autonomous entity inside of England.

Here's some nice YouTube videos showing how messed up it all is. It goes through the history, and the really, really, screwed up governance structure.

Eliminating carbon as a fuel source world wide is not. There is nothing really different now about people in this regard.

Once upon a time, Republicans believed that CO2 was an energy retaining gas. Now? Denial of science is a party platform.

Just as a point of edification to whoever marked this post as "Troll".....

In 2008 The Republican Party platform listed global warming a a national problem, and cited Human activity among its causes.

citation: http://www.latimes.com/opinion...

http://www.presidency.ucsb.edu...

Now, here is the specific text HArd core Republicans might want to stop reading at this point, because this is going to get really uncomfortable instantly. From the 2008 platform

Addressing Climate Change Responsibly

The same human economic activity that has brought freedom and opportunity to billions has also increased the amount of carbon in the atmosphere. While the scope and long-term consequences of this are the subject of ongoing scientific research, common sense dictates that the United States should take measured and reasonable steps today to reduce any impact on the environment. Those steps, if consistent with our global competitiveness will also be good for our national security, our energy independence, and our economy. Any policies should be global in nature, based on sound science and technology, and should not harm the economy.

The Solution: Technology and the Market

As part of a global climate change strategy, Republicans support technology-driven, market-based solutions that will decrease emissions, reduce excess greenhouse gasses in the atmosphere, increase energy efficiency, mitigate the impact of climate change where it occurs, and maximize any ancillary benefits climate change might offer for the economy.

To reduce emissions in the short run, we will rely upon the power of new technologies, as discussed above, especially zero-emission energy sources such as nuclear and other alternate power sources. But innovation must not be hamstrung by Washington bickering, regulatory briar patches, or obstructionist lawsuits. Empowering Washington will only lead to unintended consequences and unimagined economic and environmental pain; instead, we must unleash the power of scientific know-how and competitive markets.

Now let us fast forward to today, Here is your 2016 presidential candidate Donald trump on global warming

http://www.inquisitr.com/10836... specifically his tweet: “This very expensive GLOBAL WARMING bullshit has got to stop. Our planet is freezing, record low temps,and our GW scientists are stuck in ice”

https://twitter.com/realdonald...

"The concept of global warming was created by and for the Chinese in order to make U.S. manufacturing non-competitive."

https://www.youtube.com/watch?...

More tweets

Any and all weather events are used by the GLOBAL WARMING HOAXSTERS to justify higher taxes to save our planet! They don't believe it $$$$!

It’s snowing & freezing in NYC. What the hell ever happened to global warming?

Ice storm rolls from Texas to Tennessee - I'm in Los Angeles and it's freezing. Global warming is a total, and very expensive, hoax!

Your other possibility, another person who represents the soul of the republican party, Ted Cruz Has this to say about global warming:

“Today, the global warming alarmists are the equivalent of

Phil Schiller, the VP of Apple makes fun of Windows computers over five years old - well fucking DOH! ref

The Rockerfellers' want to join up with the Rothschilds' so they can tax your carbon footprint

Thats right, the Rothschilds and people like the Rockefeller know its far more profitable to tax someones carbon footprint. Imagine being able to tax a perfectly healthy natural gas human beings expel? You could make a far bigger fortune than on oil.

I also suggest you do some serious independent investigative journalism into how evil David Rockerfeller is. Once you realize this, you'll realize the alternative , far more profitable agenda.
