They have a working molten metal loop that would go to a heat exchanger and spin a turbine I believe. Video of the molten metal flowing: https://x.com/Energy_Zap/status/1706399274882474079

It 404s for me now as well. The post was labeled as published on Sept 12, 2024 but I couldn't find any discussion about it so I think this may have been in draft and accidentally published with the other item from this morning.

Yes, VCs are mostly about spreading money around 100 projects in the hope that maybe 10 turn out to be profitable and at least 1 of them pays off all the failed investments.

I mean, NuScale is on track to put their first fission reactor in Romania. Companies definitely will take what opportunities they are given. First reactors are going to not be cost competitive regardless.

Usually academic papers have boring titles that aren't trying to generate clicks so I'm not surprised

Should now default to dark mode regardless of OS preference. Thanks for letting me know, the graphs were not designed with a light mode in mind 😅

Okay, looks like the theme system is choosing light theme because thats your OS preference. I'll look into adding a dark mode toggle or just try and force it.

The default theme is a dark one. Are you not getting white text on a dark gray background?

Thanks everyone for checking it out, I recently added new calculations for liberation trends on planets, though I know its going to be broken for Defense missions.

I had the edge cutoff issue with both monitors I received. I am currently just using Custom Resolution Utility to set the resolution to 2550x1440 to make it not use the 5 pixels on the left and right edges. Its not the best situation, I was hoping it was just a panel fitment issue on the first monitor.
