Most people don't know the real quote: "Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it for the next few decades. After that it's all new shit."
The earth quake was a millennial quake, so they figured they only had a five percent chance of seeing one in the life span of the plants. In other words, they cut corners. They also cut corners on personnel. Competent management could have prevented the meltdown even post tsunami. For instance, they could have vented the Hydrogen gas, and they should have moved mountains to get the generators running (or get new generators flown in) and keep them fueled.
Yes, men are killers, that's the point. Look at the way men interact which other. It's all about signaling that they aren't trying to kill each other while staying on guard and looking aggressive. You shake hands or bow, you smile, and praise each other, but you stand up straight, face them directly, look them in the eye, don't show weakness.
There's going to be a lot of posts from people who don't believe in processes that take longer than their lifetimes. Congratulations on being one of them.
Yeah, I don't remember the exact speed, I think it was 1/10th light speed, which makes the travel time small compared to time before a colony spawns new colonies. Assuming habitable planets are dense, that is.

There must be competition to see who can write the most inscrutable math article that's gotten way out of hand.
I get the attitude, but the nuclear engineers I work with were sure the thing was going to explode.
Stanislaw Lem thought that P. K. Dick was the only S. F. writer whose work had any literary merit.
Maybe by successful they mean "relatable" or "comprehensible" or something.

It's not revisionist. The Axis actually won.

And your point is...?
You're being extremely sensitive. If you weren't you wouldn't care.
Yep. However, women killing men isn't as big of a problem. If you hadn't noticed, men are cautious around men, as well.
If it's not true for you, then you aren't part of the problem.
Uh yeah. In case you didn't notice, men killing women is kind of a problem.
Response to parent post, you brain-dead moron.
Libertarianism run amok. Apparently the need to stay in business trumps any moral concerns.
Grandparent post still stands. These reviewers will gradually be replaced by others who never had any experience scheduling the work.
I hadn't caught that, thanks. This makes the system a lot more interesting.
That's backwards. Philosophy only solves its nagging questions by *resorting* to math or logic or science.
The trend suggests that in the limiting case, humans are not intelligent.
It's easy. Put a second countdown on the red light for the cars.
Those people and their spiritual children are still with us.
Osama bin laden doll that turns into a Darth Maul.
I suspect this is a backlash against Muslims as much as it is an embracing of best practices.
Let's face it. If you're a guy chatting with a woman, you don't want to find out she's really a dude.
