    That it is peer reviewed with lots and lots of references. Totally backed up. Hope that helps.

    No, they are too predictable. No deep learning at all.

  7. Sun on France's Oldest Nuclear Plant To Close This Year (phys.org) · · Score: 1

    Before we need to remix the solar core, we have another issue, the Sun will grow in luminosity until the water vapor feedback boils the oceans in about 2 billion years. So, a bit of shade or an orbit shift back into the habitable zone would be the first thing to work on. The Kuiper belt likely has enough angular momentum to achieve the orbit shift. But adjusting planetary resonances might make it a big job. We need to consider conservation of angular momentum in the sense of not wasting the resource in addition to the usual meaning.

    Turns out switching to 100% renewable energy is cheaper for France. https://100.org/100-goes-globa...

    That was a perfect /. submission. An AI that could pass the Turning Test by being indistinguishable from a jingoistic blabber mouth.

  11. Renewables cheaper than nuclear by far on France's Oldest Nuclear Plant To Close This Year (phys.org) · · Score: 1, Informative

    Renewables are much much less expensive than nuclear power. That is why France is ending plans to replace it's fleet and opting for a phase out. http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/pa...

    We don't do breeders. They are one of the chief caused of weapons proliferation.

    I mentioned the last fatality because they are going deeper than diamond mines for waste disposal so those deaths are just starting.

    It impacts how much cooling water you need or if you need it at all. The plant in Florida suck a lot of water and should be engineer to avoid catching divers.
