Korolev himself was sent to work in a platinum mine where he lost his teeth when he was younger. If it wasn't for Tupolev getting him out, to work in his prison lab, he would quite likely have died there in the mines. Korolev was interested in rocket powered airplanes when he was younger. Those back then were considered to have limited applications, so he was basically sentenced for misusing state resources or something like that.
Of course they are. Why do you think the Soviets boozed up their soldiers before sending them to fight in WW2 against like Finland? Mind you, they didn't always make for the best troops, but at least they kept trying to go forwards.
I don't think it is quite like that. But acetaminophen does disable the sensation of pain by acting on the nerves directly, it even has counter effects when taken with sedatives like diazepam (Valium), so it is not surprising it has other effects on the nervous system.
Considering the migraine is due to blood vessels dilating you would be better off with something which actually has an effect on that like caffeine or aspirin.
As much as 90% of the fuel can be reused. It just that the rest is actinides which poison the nuclear reaction and don't allow the reaction to occur any more. Much of the U-238 in the original fuel is transmuted into PLUTONIUM which is fissile so you need less U-235 because Plutonium can replace it.
The alternative is to use a nuclear reactor which works regardless of the actinides being there or not. Namely the Generation IV fast reactors that I mentioned above.
Have you had the chance to view it yourself? What do you think of the Google News facelift?
The new Google News page is total and utter crap. For a minute I actually thought someone had hijacked and defaced the site or something. Then I realized it was a redesign. You can't find anything in there. I mean I searched for some recent major world news item that I heard about and it was nowhere to be found. I guess they hadn't rebuild the index yet even. The design is full of useless borders and cruft which is totally against Google's own minimalist website design philosophy. And everything is freaking huge. I feel like my desktop screen is the size of a phablet. Looks like one of them "mobile optimized" sites. Blech.
Remember that time Scientologists tried to ban that guy at xs4all for "copyright infringement"? Next time they'll be able to use this to smother dissent dear Canadian judges.
I got a phone call from someone claiming to be from Microsoft and that my computer had a virus. Which was... interesting to say the least. Considering that I never gave Microsoft my phone number in the first place. The guy on the phone line had the most ridiculous accent.
I dunno. I thought we already had vending machines. MacDonalds was supposed to be a fast food joint, which actually allows you to customize your order and have face-to-face service.
notwithstanding the fact that no persistent storage device ever made has had any natural relation to 2^20, 2^30, etc
I dunno man. Magnetic core seems to be pretty persistent to me. That was back when memory actually remembered things, rather than forgetting them. Today you have NAND Flash and MRAM.
No kidding. Then again that's Apple for you. Compare this with Qualcomm. When they needed a GPU design, they basically bought a small company a lot of people thought was vaporware, (Bitboys), and an ex-ATI team and made the Adreno GPU. Which they still use today.

Hydro? In California? I don't think so.

RTFL.
CANDU reactors do not need 5-6% fissionable uranium. 1% is enough.
They use heavy water as a moderator. Of course you could have read my link above but noooo.
You go back to school you dolt.
Considering there are DOZENS of CANDU-6 reactors operational in Canada, India, China, Romania, Argentina, etc, I would say your argument is pointless.
Of course you could have read the link but this is Slashdot after all...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
Also, something like a CANDU reactor, heavy water moderated, requires a lot less enrichment in the fuel for it to work.
Yes you can. Ever heard of MOX fuel?

Just ignore them. That's what I do. Now... where is that killfile.
Of course! All modern Full Stack Programmers (i.e. do everything Joes/Janes) must use Javascript on both server and client.
No Ruby on Rails for you...
As for shell scripting and toy programs that's what Python's for.
That's not honey. It's High Fructose Corn Syrup.
I knew it! Time to use DDT again!
Or use an integral fast reactor (Generation IV) to burn the fuel more.
You could also recycle the nuclear fuel and burn it further. I think he's making a decent assumption.
That makes two of us. Also a user of DDG.

Yeah you could do it if you wanted to. Just like you could do non power of 2 DRAMs if you wanted. But did anyone do it? That's the question.
