Comment This is completely a non-issue with the ISPs (Score 0) 147

The simple answer why we don't hear an answer to "Have you or has your ISP fixed your bufferbloat yet?" is because the ISPs have been usin cut-through routing and forwarding that do not suffer from the buffer bloat.

Comment Opposing nuclear energy is very short-sighted (Score 1) 485

Opposing nuclear energy is very short-sighted and without constant R&D and improvements of existing reactors will let other countries to surpass technology-wise in the nuclear field. Also demand for electricity will only go up especially as the transportation moves away from petrol to electricity. Effort has to be put into creating tight regulation rules and investment into safer reactors instead of bluntly opposing nuclear energy as a whole. We can start talking about abandoning nuclear energy when solar or other safer technologies mature, however we are not there yet and we need electricity now.
