Wait until they put AI on it...

And I would question the "accidental" nature of Chernobyl, given than the power plant has voluntarily been pushed out of its boundaries.

...and yes I know, then design flaws stroke. But the initial spark was not accidental at all.

We also don't factor in a carbon tax for the fossil-fuel power plants.

Yet their CO2 will remain for 10'000 years on the atmosphere, affecting even remote populations.

and for France, we're talking about 6 reactors voluntarily paused, out of 56.

It is usually people parrot-repeating (like GenAI?) whatever intox Grennpeace and the likes (e,g, the German government under Merkel) spread.

Uranium is not rare. You can even extract it from sea water.

Russia's is just cheaper.

But it accounts for 5% of the cost of a produced MWh, so if it had to be generated otherwise, we'd know how to do it.

oh the irony...

In France, which has the most nuclearized electricity, 13% of the electricity bill is actually a tax to finance the subsidies to solar and wind power plants.

Nuclear is highly profitable, if you compare prices for 24x7 electricity (i.e., if comparing with solar, factor in the cost of energy storage at grid scale, or separate power generators able to provide for peak demand).

It seemed obvious to me that the next version number after 2.56 would be 5.12

> cout is guaranteed to flush anyways when the program ends

This is not always true in the case the program crashes. I've had case where `std::endl` was necessary.

I am on the design-doc team and I'd like to add the 3rd category:

3. The developer is not able to imagine how the design works because s/he has no capability for abstraction. Needs to go hands-on.

I might add that writing the doc is not the purpose, the purpose is to think it, challenge it and share it.

The design "doc" is needed, but not the static doc for printers, a more dynamic one where you don't need a 50 pages doc with lots of links between pages, but a very good dynamic diagram with some text.
