Wrong. The reactor would be launched cold, prior to having ever been fired up. In that state it would contain no fission products and fewer curies of radioactive material than an RTG. It also (like an RTG) would be constructed in such a way as to almost certainly survive re-entry intact.
Oh. Wailt. It's for hydrothermal. That's "green" and "sustainable". So it's ok and anyone who says it will pollute your well or that mining sand for it will give your kids silicosis is a filthy denier.
If you are dealing in state secrets you shouldn't trust any CA. If, on the other hand, you just want to keep thieves from cleaning out your bank account you needn't worry about any major government: they have more direct ways of getting your money.
My "computing environment" is quite adequately secure against my threat model which is limited to criminals who might want my secret banking information. Yours might include the NSA or even Bruce Schneier.

And that is the fundamental bug.
Effects not of nuclear power, but of panicky "abundance of caution" overreactions by authorities and news media to _any_ perceived threat.

Yes. CBS gets to decide what they publish. You get to decide what you publish. The government has no say in the matter. That's freedom of the press.
I thought maybe they were opening up the software that actually matters. No real chance of that, though.
...by claiming that the active RFIDs magically deactivate themselves when off school property?"
No. They are probably stupid enough to believe it.

That's what I meant.
Or Android? If so it might be possible to render these gadgets useful, even if it does require going through a song and dance every time you reboot.
"The only thing wrong with this argument is that employees always go screaming to the government, asking for help."
FTFY.
Could be useful.
A euphemism for panic. These people are cowards.

No one would be stupid enough to set the system clock to local time.
The right to link is settled law in the USA.
Interesting image there.
...and bring the same charges against the Catholic Church?
Perhaps you might want to consider looking at the paper (not the article).
Nonsense. Compare to Dome A in Antarctica.
Purely a political problem. Suitable and inexpensive reactor designs have existed for decades.
There were some interesting ones.
Wrong. Rockets very near the ground experience a ground-effect augmentation of thrust. Response to thrust vectoring will also be affected.
Thrust measurement experiment on the ground effect of a vertical landing rocket.
This means that the control algorithm must change as the vehicle lands.
...is maintaining stability while exiting and then re-entering the ground-effect region.
