so far every nuclear power plant melt down has been caused by cost cutting and neglect, nuclear power plants are low upkeep but not zero upkeep. you have to repair and upgrade systems while having a good culture. so basically meltdowns are because of capitalism.
if you think that green energy (ignore that nuclear is green energy) is going to be different, think again. solar farms can overheat if the cooling system is nonexistent or breaks down due to lack of repair, resulting in the photovoltaic cells igniting.
wind turbines can, and have just fucking obliterated themselves because of cracks and strains in the structures.
how many dams have collapsed and flooded, destroyed towns?
nuclear power fear is just propaganda through misinfo, it's a victim to capitalism like everything else. most nuclear power plants are built in low impact zones so even if you have a meltdown only the industrial complexes are affected. (this is largely a coincidence because land there is cheaper.)
"It's not rocket/nuclear science, it's simple" is such a weird statement because rocket and nuclear science is relatively simple as far as sciences go.
Rockets are things go boom, nuclear is two hot things makes a much hotter thing.
It's the two trillion caveats that you have (so called "Safety Measures" and "Aerodynamics")
you can make a conceptual rocket with mentos and a soda bottle, if you measure the impulse by the components- that's rocket science.
@navi@social.vlhl.dev I've always interpreted it as the first, because there are a lot of considerations and caveats with cryptography such as avalanching, reflection, initialization, alignment and padding along with the complexity/entropy of the mathematical equations-- most if not all of which will have been taken into consideration.
but sometimes you have to reimplement the cipher due to either platform availability (i.e. embedded, old consoles) or they're a niche that doesn't exist on the language you're using like most secondary ciphers like almost everything in the eSTREAM project.
there also are concerns about backdooring when using mainline ciphers but that's a conspiracy theory rabbit hole.
@thesamesam@social.treehouse.systems i love that i went to audit the rest of this system and found
// yes, technically this creates a memory leak of 64B every hook creation. But I don't care.
// tracking all the users of the memory would be painful.
// Nobody will hook 100k times, and even if, that's only 6.4 MB. Nothing. 😔

@ariadne@social.treehouse.systems at this point any amount of harassment to "add more maintainers because development is too slow" should be considered as a social engineering attack and the user should be ignored/blocked.
reminder that there's security levels beyond ring zero, yes- ring zero is the kernel.
above that is the bootloader, above that is the bios, above that is the base metal, above that is the device.
justifying anticheat in kernel level only means that you're encouraging senseless escalation and the only way to stop it is complete surveillance of the person. which is as authoritarian as you can get. you're saying to trust some pandora's box to be just and correct while also saying that everyone everywhere is untrustworthy.
and even physical observation doesn't actually stop cheating immediately, that itself takes time and requires a human being. there have been documented cases of cheats being used in tier one international esports which have thousands of people watching
@navi@social.vlhl.dev@lanodan@queer.hacktivis.me if macOS can default to everything-is-forbidden and then prompt the user twelve times a second when a quarantined app wants to do anything, and people aren't complaining about it-- i think sacrificing security and stability for simplicity isn't it.
half-related, this does have the side effect of it potentially becoming popup-ware
