I’m curious to hear people’s takes on small modular reactors.

Those are great points, too. I know a few sellers and have noticed their complaints about Amazon have increased in recent years at the same time my satisfaction with the platform as a buyer has been going down. You have all given me a lot ot think through. Greatly appreciated!
Yeah, @[email protected] raised some good points about potential problems. But it’s no impossible in theory. Like you say, I’d love to see something from the FOSS world that could take on Amazon. Amazon is a bully and a design thief.
Awesome!
Sorry for the delay, my wife gave birth and it’s been a busy few weeks. These are all great questions/points. Thank you for such a great reply!
anything on reddit gets shit on by 13 year olds who don’t know anything besides constant adaption to change.
That comment and this thread reminds me of this line from Cory Doctorow’s book Walkaway:
Anything invented before you were eighteen was there all along. Anything invented before you’re 30 is exciting and will change the world forever. Anything invented after that is an abomination and should be banned.
The tracking, the crap algorithms—they’re bad for user experience and they’re bad for society as a whole. But there is good stuff, too. I think that things like RSS (something old that is still amazingly supported but not consciously used enough), ActivityPub, and others can empower us to break free from the bad stuff while embracing the good.
Separate the content from how the content is viewed and we’ll change the incentives for (and power held by) for those who have turned it to such garbage.

Yeah, it’s not about automating the decision making, but making the tools available for when the will is present.
Machine Learning has huge potential. I am more interested in seeing it used to inform decisions and highlight things that may get overlooked than deciding actual allocation.
Yeah, I was thinking tools for a more local level that enable collaboration, knowledge sharing, and tracking (rather than allocating) resource use. For higher-level coordination, something that could flag emerging conflicts over resources would be useful to spot problems on the horizon and then enable groups to work things out rather than impose a solution.
I worked on a project earlier this year to build an AI system that would share knowledge about performance and best practices to match communities up with solutions to their problems, as well as modules to help them implement, manage, and track them, all of which could then be fed back into the system. Enterprise tools for grassroots groups, so to speak. Unfortunately, it didn’t get off the ground.
Thanks, this looks great! I heard last year that Łódź, Poland was looking to do some interesting things across the city, too.
