Those key issues involve substantial solutions to cost material improvements in safety and ongoing maintenance and safe storage. N ext generation nuclear technology, as led by small modular reactors smrs are nuclear fission reactors that are now being designed to take the scale of nuclear plants down significantly and enable innovative features...

As human brains increasingly interact with technology that mimics their own capabilities, the need for students to understand both the science and engineering of intelligence continues to grow as well. Addressing these challenges will require a deeper understanding of how the brain produces intelligent behavior and how we may be able to replicate... See more

The most fascinating part about the intelligence controversy is that most people don't find the genetic component and potency of IQ in your success as intuitive. It was blatantly apparent to me growing up people's ability to perform in subjects in school was secondarily driven by the amount of studying they did and other controllable factors and... See more

Early on, big things might start out feeling like a toy. But their ability to extend from one value proposition to the next, and address more and more of a market is the secret sauce you want to dream about. That's where high net dollar retention comes from. Companies that are able to drive usage (more volume of the same thing) or modules (adjacent... See more

Molten Salt Reactors (MSRs): In MSRs, molten salt (e.g., fluoride, chloride) contains the nuclear fuel (i.e., uranium). The molten salt also acts as the coolant, and graphite rods act as the moderator. Replacing water as the coolant removes the possibility of steam explosions and the generation of flammable hydrogen gas. The nuclear reactions in... See more

The problem isn’t encouraging young people to aim high or dream big. It’s pretending that each of us is a blank canvas. I can dream all I want of becoming the next Michael Jordan, but my five-foot-seven frame and general lack of coordination say otherwise. Better advice came from the Greeks almost 2,500 years ago: “To know thyself is the beginning... See more
