Lots of folks also like the unmarketable names, because you know that it’s not a corporate project. You’re hearing about it, because it’s actually good, and not just because some startup got VC money to do marketing.

Heck, the reverse is true as well. This project is better specifically because it has that name. You just know some transfemmes are tirelessly hacking away at it, because they enjoy the silly name.

Damn, did not expect mining to be concentrated on so few countries.

Obviously, not every nation has worthwhile uranium deposits. And I guess, some nations might decide to import while that’s possible and only dip into their own mineable resources when necessary…?

Still feels, though, like a certain trumpet could decide tomorrow to attack Kazhakstan and completely fuck the uranium supply chain in addition to the oil supply chain.

Which, thinking about it, isn’t even too unlikely. He attacked Iran on the pretense of them supposedly building a nuke.
If they were building a nuke, they would likely get uranium from either Kazhakstan or Uzbekistan, since those are pretty much next door.

Oh man, don’t show this chart to the guy…

I feel like the series presents itself as a bit too serious for the kids, too. Especially FF16 with its Game of Thrones vibes pandered to an adult audience. It just doesn’t look like the kind of simple fun that kids tend to enjoy.

Everything I implement at work is open source because I don’t want to wait for a purchase approval.

Just to say, though, I feel like 99% of the software we deploy is open-source for that exact reason. Projects generally start out small, where you try to evaluate some concept. You’re not gonna spend months to go through the purchase process of some proprietary tool, if you can help it…
