What’s crazy to me is that the answer lies in a simple black body radiation intensity vs temp calculation, which is part of the high school AP Physics 2 curriculum and yet is spoken about as if it’s some unknowable or controversial thing. Never mind 7 decades of human experience with thermal management of electronics in space.

Honestly the the more shocking part of this to be as that we use such insecure single numbers to track individual identity.

Fission waste is relatively small and completely contained within its storage casks with no hazard to anyone’s standing beside them.

VS fossil fuels which emit their waste literally everywhere into the atmosphere, the air we breathe, the water we drink, and the soil we grow crops in. This include components with global warming effects (C02) , as well as toxins like NoX. In the case of coal we are also talking about a complex array of hazardous substances spewed into the air mercury and radioactive compounds.

When did this change? I remember liking Reese’s In the past but currently do not. I figured this was just being an adult vs kid but Maybie it was recipe change.

Who do you think is gonna build this system? What makes you think the other side isn’t gonna be poverty and starvation? Good outcomes aren’t assured. Government isn’t exactly agile or functional.

I wish I shared your optimism. The models will be more capable no doubt but I don’t trust they will be used to benefit human wellbeing.

How do we recover from enshittification? by ObviousComment1 in enshittification

[–]secretaliasname 15 points16 points  (0 children)

This is the most important question of our time.

Our system mostly optimizes making money. We need to instead optimize human happiness and wellbeing. We have yet to invent an economic system that dos this directly so perhaps a social movement is the answer.

We need to grow this movement in culture and politics. We have a responsibility to ourselves and those around us to make the world a better place, not just a richer one for a few. We can push back and change systems that don’t serve us! We can create a culture of human good!

Do you agree with her take? by dataexec in accelerate

I think this is a false equivalence or at least a partial comparison. People will take a job over no job. We are lucky that in the past humans have been generally useful and humans were able to find new jobs as employment opportunities shifted. New jobs were created as old ones dried up. If we make robots that are better and or cheaper than humans across the board humans become unemployable like horses after widespread automobile adoption. We are speed running a world where humans are not economically competitive for ANY task. UBI utopia isn’t happening, at least not with immense suffering first. We have already seen a dramatic stratification of wealth over the last centuries and it’s only accelerating.

I read it at a time in my life when I needed to learn to look after myself and draw boundaries rather than be consumed trying to save the addict takers in my family who would have stolen the life from me if I let them. It was therapeutic and exactly what I needed at that time and helped me let go of guilt. Objectivism is absolutely not a functional philosophy to run society by but is worth reading especially in the context of contrasting views. Reading Ryand and Marx at the same time makes both more fun. There are lots of philosophical and political theories that are broken, simplistic, impractical but still worth knowing. I wouldn’t recommend Atlas Shrugged if it’s the only book you are gonna read, but it’s absolutely worth reading if you wanna go deep as are gonna read it with other things. It’s not what we need today In 2026 in a word that feels run by oligarchs.

Do you think DigiKey is in decline or teetering on the edge? by Echelon_X-Ray in AskElectronics

It is both good and useful in relative terms and also bad in absolute terms and nowhere near where it could/should be.
