  1. Re:Heat and cooling and follow on effects on Will Future Nuclear Power Plants Float? (thebulletin.org) · · Score: 1

    The actual issue is that nuclear ships generally dump heat into (relatively) flowing water. Also, the more heat they have to dump, the faster the water flows around them. Dumping a much larger amount of heat into almost stationary water is most likely going to be a bit more problematic.

    If you write an unpublished book, and I happen to write the same book, or a very close one, by some cosmic improbability, it's actually perfectly fine.

    Crypto currencies frequently have a transaction cost of pennies or less.

    Yes, the thing that consumes hundreds of kilowatts per transaction costs pennies for the same. I think you're rather exaggerating the costs of existing currencies. Reality shows that they're perfectly fine when it comes to transaction costs.
