Thanks for the blinding insight.

Fascinating stuff, I've never really thought about what problem e.g. frameworks are solving. It's kind of too bad that in my day job my head's in the clouds and usually somewhat re…

I guess regular religious fervor just isn’t what it used to be.

Primary cooling could be molten salt or liquid metal but unless you take the power out through the Seebeck effect like RTG’s on space probes, you still need water to make steam for…

Sparrows are history these days, but even more modern weapons can be defeated. It’s a lot about knowing what your weapon’s perf envelope is, and what the other side has to throw at…

"The Fine Comment" and "Article", respectively. Sometimes another adjective is substituted, by angry people.

I haven't dived all that much, but the initial submersion with empty lungs is super unpleasant every time, the urge to draw air is super strong. After I'm under I'm 100% fine with …

Also the idea that design is something that's just "out there" totally apart from how things are used is just precious.
