Nuke in US is impossible so long as ill-informed TWOTs like you can prattle on with misinformation. There are simply too many treehuggers/ dirty hippies in positions of power who will STOP any new or reused nukes. See arsehole judges insisting that they can conrol the Executive branch. The only way to re-do nukes is to build portable ones in a central location and then truck them into existing sites and hook 'em up. The only social aspect of US nuke program is ........ TWOTs. I say this from 25+ years of commercial nuclear power experience.

Try some science, fella. Mutation survival is encouraged by pressure -- other things killing off the weaker variants. Vaccines increase pressure, kinda like GainofFunction processes used in Wuhan lab. More pressure means more variants, less means fewer. It is the vaccinated that are the little labs for creation of Delta, Lamda, etc. Your statement is the exact opposite of evolutionary science.

Oh, nooo, no one condemned this for being GMO. Horror of horrors! What a pack of Aholes y'all are. Condemning an efficiency increase in food production 'cause it will allow more people to not starve. What kind of privileged, entitled, pampered lives you must lead to look down on anyone who might be offered a chance to raise their kids past the toddler stage 'cause they now have enough nourishment to avoid some killing diseases. I'm surprised none of you complained about this undoubtedly allowing more of "those kind" to proliferate. Y'know, darkies.

I am not disagreeing with your general dislike of corps. However, who owns what depends upon jurisdiction. Creation or expression is owned by the individual regardless of who publishes or patents. Both of those features give you standing in court. But, if someone can walk in and show evidence (e.g., correspondence, notes, etc) that they were first, you lose. Ca is very protective about this sort of thing. Other states further east, not so much. It depends. That is why any sort of deal involving a communist government is so tricky -- they do not recognize intellectual ownership a'tall. Which is how the CCP justifies stealing all the tech from any company dumb enough to operate there (alternatively, any company whose execs are willing to take a bribe -- back to corps again).

Got that right. What a wad of twaddle: "demonstrated activities during flight that were essential to public safety, or contributed to human space flight safety." Oh, please. Have you taken an ocean voyage by going on a liner? Did you miss out on climbing everest 'cause you were lugging the supplies? Being a pilot and "contributing" according to some self-proclaimed expert is crappola. Sounds like something a union rep might spew to play down the contribution of non-union members. Bite me, NASA. You lost credibility when your bureaucratic incompetence blew up Challenger.

Ooh, I love your last bit: if construction yada yada. Basic reason is that programs are not written by engineers. Engineers, depending upon their level of responsibility are personally (financially and criminally ) responsible for F-ups. Coders never are -- which explains the crappola that comes out in programs.
