Visiting the most expensive nuclear station
I think your down votes are because people are tired of rebutting the same old anti-nuclear arguments.
"Civilizationally" The evidence is nuclear has remained safer than alternatives well over half a century even when we have failed organizationally to do the right things (e.g. Chernobyl, Fukushima). IMO let us move on and use technologies that might prevent civilizational collapse rather than avoid them and make such a thing more likely. (Although it's unlikely under any scenario.)
"Proliferation" as a product of civilian nuclear power has been studied and discussed for its entire history and has been disproven. There's no link. In general having civilian nuclear power allows more oversight by international bodies about what you're doing, whereas regimes pursuing nuclear weapons tend to pursue them in secret and using infrastructure fit for the purpose of producing weapons materials.
"Fuel efficiency" simply isn't important when the fuel is so abundant and so cheap. We can afford to worry about that in future if we ever wind up building enough nuclear power it becomes a problem. If anything this is a good reason to stop freaking out about "nuclear waste" i.e. mildly used and 95% reusable fuel and leave that where it's been sitting perfectly safe for decades, above ground.
If someone had the time they could mine every nuclear thread on Hacker News and pull out all the common tropes and rebut them someplace in a similar vein to Skeptical Science's list for Climate Change (https://skepticalscience.com/argument.php). @acidburnNSA's https://whatisnuclear.com/ might be the closest thing. But then nobody would read it, and the problem would continue.

The Small Website Discoverability Crisis
I went snooping in your HN profile to find the link, and that is a really well done site. Clean design, relevant pictures, and interesting material. It's probably going to cost me an hour or two of productivity today.
Link for people lazier than me: https://whatisnuclear.com/

Nuclear
If you want to read more on nuclear from a guy with a PhD on the subject, I highly recommend checking out https://whatisnuclear.com. The upsides and challenges are all clearly laid out without any agenda as some people in this thread have accused the pro-nuclear folks of falling for.

whatisnuclear.com run by a couple of nuclear engineers is definitely a more objective and trustworthy source than the Scientific American / the University of Maryland.

Google Search results polluted by buggy AI-written code frustrate coders
I started gathering domains to see for myself the state of the Internet
https://github.com/rumca-js/Internet-Places-Database
I have many observations.
One is that I cannot see aby useful amiga links. I had to manually search them for some time. Some parts of the old internet exist, but are buried.
Second is that spam sites are everywhere. Not only AI generator.
Next is that personal sites exist, but they are often boring. Also 'CV sites' are a waste of time for me. I wonder how many of them are fake.
Many sites have poorly set up HTML meta fields, title, description. How anybody is supposed to find them?
I prefer going to passionate personal site about programming tips that reading content farms. It is difficult to find such sites.

Show HN: OpenOrb, a curated search engine for Atom and RSS feeds

It contains also domain lists, that include tag indicating, if it is personal, or not.

We Need to Rewild the Internet
I am running my personal web crawler since September of 2022. I gather internet domains and assign them meta information. There are various sources of my data. I assign "personal" tag to any personal website. I assign "self-host" tag to any self-host program I find.
I have less than 30k of personal websites.
Data are in the repository.
https://github.com/rumca-js/Internet-Places-Database
I still rely on google for many things, or kagi. It is interesting to me, what my crawler finds next. It is always a surprise to see new blog, or forgotten forum of sorts.
This is how I discover real new content on the Internet. Certainly not by google which can find only BBC, or techcrunch.

The internet is slipping out of our reach
Google will not be interested in fixing search. It also may not be possibile because of ai spam. They would like to invest in deep mind/bard/gemini than to fix technology that will be obsolete in a few years.
I have started scanning domains to see how many different places there are in the internet. Spoiler: Not many.
We could try to create curated open databases for links, forums, places, and links, but in ai era it will always be a niche.
Having said that I think that it is a good thing. If it is a niche it will not be spoiled by normal users expecting simple behavior, or corporations trying to control the output.
Start your blog
Start your curated lists of links.
Control your data. Share your data.

YaCy, a distributed Web Search Engine, based on a peer-to-peer network
There are already many project about search:
- https://www.marginalia.nu/
- https://searchmysite.net/
- https://lucene.apache.org/
- elastic search
- https://presearch.com/
- https://stract.com/
- https://wiby.me/
I think that all project are fun. I would like to see one succeeding at reaching mainstream level of attention.
I have also been gathering links meta data for some time. Maybe I will use them to feed any eventual self hosted search engine, or language model, if I decide to experiment with that.

A search engine in 80 lines of Python
I have myself dabbled a little bit in that subject. Some of my notes:
- some RSS feeds are protected by cloudflare. It is true however that it is not necessary for majority of blogs. If you would like to do more then selenium would be a way to solve "cloudflare" protected links
- sometimes even selenium headless is not enough and full blown browser in selenium is necessary to fool it's protection
- sometimes even that is not enough
- then I started to wonder, why some RSS feeds are so well protected by cloudflare, but who am I to judge?
- sometimes it is beneficial to cover user agent. I feel bad for setting my user agent to chrome, but again, why RSS feeds are so well protected?
- you cannot parse, read entire Internet, therefore you always need to think about compromises. For example I have narrowed area of my searches in one of my projects to domains only. Now I can find most of the common domains, and I sort them by their "importance"
- RSS links do change. There need to be automated means to disable some feeds automatically to prevent checking inactive domains
- I do not see any configurable timeout for reading a page, but I am not familiar with aiohttp. Some pages might waste your time
- I hate that some RSS feeds are not configured properly. Some sites do not provide a valid meta "link" with "application/rss+xml". Some RSS feeds have naive titles like "Home", or no title at all. Such a waste of opportunity
My RSS feed parser, link archiver, web crawler: https://github.com/rumca-js/Django-link-archive. Especially interesting could be file rsshistory/webtools.py. It is not advanced programming craft, but it got the job done.
Additionally, in other project I have collected around 2378 of personal sites. I collect domains in https://github.com/rumca-js/Internet-Places-Database/tree/ma... . These files are JSONs. All personal sites have tag "personal".
Most of the things are collected from:
https://nownownow.com/
https://searchmysite.net/
I wanted also to process domains from https://downloads.marginalia.nu/, but haven't got time to read structure of the files

Is Google Getting Worse? A Longitudinal Investigation of SEO Spam in Search [pdf]
On the other hand it is not 1995. Time has moved on. I wrote a Simple RSS feed, that also serves as search engine for bookmarks.
I am able to run it in attick on raspberry pi. We do not have to rely so heavily on google.
https://github.com/rumca-js/Django-link-archive
It is true that it does not serve me as google, or kagi replacement. It is a very nice addition though.
With a little bit off determination I do not have to be so dependent on google.
Here is also a dump of known domains. Some are personal.
https://github.com/rumca-js/Internet-Places-Database
...and my bookmarks

Some more years, and google can go to hell.
