This was known ever since it happened. For example do you think Hiroshima or Nagasaki are barren? That was with bombs. A meltdown is a much less dangerous event.
You just need to look at the decay chains. For example dangerous elements are Iodine-131 and Strontium-90.
Iodine-131 has a half life of 8 days. This is why people are advised to take iodine tablets in case they are exposed to uranium/plutonium fission products. It basically reduces the chance Iodine-131 will stay for long in the thyroid gland and reduces the chance of cancer there. Strontium-90 has a half life of 28.79 years. There are also other isotopes which are produced in a meltdown but the dangerous ones typically have ~30 years half life. The rest of the decay chain is a lot less dangerous.
Simply limiting exposure in the first two weeks reduces chances to get sick and die dramatically. After 50-60 years the radiation becomes mostly harmless.
He's getting a clue from Apple on pricing. It seems fleecing is in fashion.
If I was one of the Asian manufacturers I would do something really dumb. Like make a Mali GPU chip and put it in a PCI-Express card and sell that. Seriously. There are probably even drivers already made for it because of Windows RT. Thankfully Intel (I never thought I would say this) actually got the AMD GPU design team so they might actually put a competitive product in the market in a couple of years.
It is a miracle! It seems negative tax rates, as proposed by Milton Friedman, now commonly reffered to as the Universal Basic Income, exists already. For Amazon at least. Poor Amazon.
Caltrain is lame. The line is not electrified, it has loads of at grade passes, I doubt it uses modern electronic signaling systems. But I agree that it should be improved.
Bullshit. The railroad would have been cost effective. If the Chinese can make a line from Beijing to Shanghai cost effective so could you. Heck, the line to Urumqui was built and it's literally from nowhere to nowhere and twice as long as Beijing to Shanghai. The problem was typical California. NIMBYism and inflated right of way land costs.
No actually. If you read the article it explicitly states it made no difference to these unemployed people whether they received the money or not in terms of them getting a job.
So, no, it did not cause more of them to remain unemployed.
That's what you get when you go ludicrously cheap Google. I am surprised they did not simply glue it to the road. Coz that. Now that. Would have taken COURAGE.

There are people in the world who live in granite houses which emit radon gas. Those are not even the worst places.
Here, this page has a photo of ground zero at Nagasaki. With tourists.

Yeah. The coin rig bubble popped. How about they just reduce their expectations or slash costs instead?

NVIDIA needs to get real here.

Not all A380s had that configuration. The main European carriers which had the A380 for example don't engage in that kind of extravagance.
Not just looking at it. Boeing designed the 747-8 which was a total failure.
Twatter has always been like that. The loudest chirps to the top and nothing else.
It is a squawk box not a discussion site.
Short duration test with a massive shockwave at the end.
Makes me wonder how well the engine would handle a full duration burn without blowing up.
I don't know... China?
The mountains in the Californian coast look like molehills compared to those in Japan.
Just make sure to bring your own earplugs if you use BART from SFO to SF.

Actually there are more jailed people in the USA than in China per capita.

I bet if it was to build a Walmart they would have used eminent domain and seized the land just fine.

Merced? I thought it was a crappy Intel CPU.
Yes, Mr. CONservative. Because building a highway over the Embarcadero would have been better than the high speed train.
NVIDIA never manufactured anything at a Samsung fab and the processes are not even compatible.
You would have to redesign the chip to manufacture it there.
Apple supposedly opened an office in San Diego right next to where Qualcomm designs its baseband processors.
You can guess why.

Can I make mine 12000 dpi, sign board size?
And expensive graphics cards for a lot of people.
You are talking about the FFC Cambridge Process. AFAIK it is not used in any major way because of, well, complications.
