Great. This will go well.

Hahahaha, no. I can see reality. Different from you. Lets see, Fuqing 5 is a PWR, and as such mostly understood tech. Terra Power "starting" some construction means exactly nothing. You really have nothing here, except a big mouth.

This is just nonsense. Fusion is a very long-term project and that was clear form the very beginning (disregard the inane press reporting an listen to the actual scientists). Fusion is NOT going to solve climate change, but it may eventually change the energy landscape and that is why it is being done.

So, no we cannot hold out for fusion and we can not hold out for any "next-gen" nuclear either.

Why would anybody sane mod that down? Ah, I see. Just answered my own question.

This thing may go online in 10 years. It then needs to run for at the very least another 10 years to prove the concept. And than, if everything goes well (it never does), we may see more of these in about 30 years.

I dropped it about 15 years ago. Still not missing anything.

Actually, it can do that too, just not reliably.

But idiots that think they can barge in with no skill, just because AI "helps" them may well do so.

Well, you have understood nothing, clearly.

But I have your number now: You are just an asshole with a gigantic ego and rather pathetic skills.

What gave you that idea? I said I have been following this for 35 years. In what universe is 35 years "quickly"?

Weapons detections systems send automated alerts. The specific form depends on the system. But no system is dialing up unanticipating randos on the phone and going, "Hello, police? I've got an emergency here!"

And unless the system had facial ID, and the police knew the "suspect", what they had to go on was the picture from the security camera, so they were already looking at the supposed "gun" in the picture and still saw fit to act like this.

Interview the coders while being a competent security coder yourself. I have done that several times. It works nicely.

That is one part of the problem. The other is no liability, no regulation, no standards that need to be followed and no qualification requirements. Mess up the calculations for a bridge and it collapses? If you were missing the qualifications, you might well go to prison and rightfully so. Make an utterly dumb testing mistake that costs your customers $20B? Nothing happens.

And the real problem is that they have zero liability, zero regulation, zero standards that need to be followed and zero qualification requirements for the people that work on these systems.

History shows us that any engineering discipline needs a few really bad catastrophes to grow up. IT is no different. Better hold on to your hats.

Yes. This is extreme incompetence in the whole organization. It starts with incompetent "managers" getting hired and they then hire incompetent "engineers" and, on top of that, create unsuitable working conditions. It rally is a whole crap-fest of incompetence all around. All to make a few more bucks in the short term.
