“Next-gen” nuclear power is such a grift. Once again reminder that there is only one operational grid-connected SMR-powered power plant in the world, with two repurposed marine reactors on a barge in Russia.
Remember when things like “uranium enrichment” and “nuclear proliferation” seemed bad?
Are we really going to turn every datacenter into a nuclear waste dump? (probably not, because the technology is expensive, untested, and generally doesn’t make sense)
