"HAUNTED BY HISTORY II: In Wroclaw my heart was warmed talking to a friend who told me the [--] million+ Ukrainian refugees has been embraced by the Polish almost like kin. In Warsaw talking to another friend I came to the realization that not all Polish people felt the same. You heard the politically correct story and its bullshit said my other Polish friend as far as Im concerned both Ukrainians and Russians are enemies of Poland. The bitter mistrust in such stark contrast to kind openness of my other friend stems again from the past: the SS Galician division were made up of ethnic Ukrainians"

"This is what we like to see Korean big build takes another step in Poland. Although a lot of us doubted the Polish for splitting their orders between two suppliers as these projects unfurl I can really see why they did it like that. There is no putting all the eggs in the Westinghouse basket. As a private company with a market cap of about [--] billion they will not be capable of doing what the incoming Polish government is asking and take a 30% ownership stake. Now I hope that gets worked out somehow but displays the inequality in financial wherewithal the two parties are bringing to the table."

"One SMR that I do know of that has the module factory is the Rolls Royce SMR. This chicken and egg problem does apply to them. Lets say one of those 470MWe big little reactors cost $3billion. Ive heard that the factory to manufacture the modules would be another $3 billion. Thats not so bad spread throughout an order book of [--] or so reactors but makes for a huge risk for the company to build the first one. Contrast with the BWRX-300. The module for that would be the steel prefabricated panels also known as steel bricks. They are fabricated at a shipyard and such facilities capable of bending"
