"The Economist published this article that's contentious but probably right: It argues that laws protecting labour in much of Europe make lay-offs so onerous that high-risk moonshot projects become unviable. Making it easier to fire people could weirdly benefit everyone"

"In Maryland Rocket Labs is using a huge XX ton carbon fibre layup machine to build orbital rockets. Building with ribbon polymer & robots. This is the miracle of carbon composites They've come a long way since the first carbon fibres appeared in a lightbulb XXX years ago"

"To make a star on Earth we can't use a billion years or a solar system worth of hydrogen so instead we must use heat: XXX million degrees of heat I've released a huge free read for you today and it's all about how fusion reactors work"

"@AngelicaOung I'm not sure I'd agree. Ukraine for sure is unlikely to retake what it lost but the meat grinder is running so intensely and particularly so for the attacker that it could very likely be unwinnable for Russia too"

"There is competition. An Allam cycle plant could manage the same thing but at a lower efficiency and would be impossible to retrofit to an existing coal plant. But Allam cycle plants are being built unlike MCFC ones. Where's the challenge"

"Firstly ash: Coal contains large quantities of materials that combine to ash and can degrade a fuel cell and this either needs removing in-process or in advance. Kobe Steel developed ash free hyper coal using high temperature solvent extraction. This is a possible solution"

"Californium XXX is a weird and very valuable element. It's also very very dangerous: Here's less than a gram of it being transported. But you can use it to kick-start a nuclear reactor It's time for the weekly Flashback Thread"

"It's the hottest nuclear reactor in operation it's Chinese it's cooled by helium gas and it's impossible to melt-down. It's the HTR-PM high temperature reactor and it's extremely neat It's also fuelled by self-contained impregnable TRISO pellets. Want to learn more"

"Or it might have nothing to do with America or even irrationality: It could be perfectly rational self-interest. An aggressive victorious Russia is in nobody's interest save theirs. Helmets and good wishes were sent when the war was thought hopeless. When it proved not to be then aid ratchets-up as the lure of neutering a historical threat by proxy (in the name of democracy We'll all repeat that) becomes irresistible. Totally rational. And also morally a good thing to do to repel an invader so there's that as well. If America pulled out completely European nations would still be mostly"
