In a pressurized water reactor, yes. In boiling water reactor, steam is formed in the reactor vessel and is sent directly to the turbines. While in operation, the turbine area is too radioactive for human presence. Fortunately, the radioactive byproducts carried in the steam are all very short lived, so it only takes a few minutes cool off.

Superset means all valid JavaScript is also valid Typescript. (At least, so long as you don’t have compiler setting on that requires all variables to have a type declared.)

It’s a superset of JavaScript. The big add is static typing, reducing the chance of runtime type errors. It compiles to vanilla JavaScript for distribution. Other new features include enums, interfaces, and generics for more type safety.

When the President is the WWE Hall of Fame, and Secretary of Education owns the organization…

Same in Vermont, so long as it’s not “lewd and lascivious behavior.”

I’m curious what countries like Spain, Italy, and the UK will do. They all have smaller aircraft carriers that require short takeoff / vertical landing planes, a role currently being filled by the F-35B. I’m unaware of anything similar from other western aircraft manufacturers.

The footage of them in full face obscuring costumes, along with the mecha, is mostly straight from various Japanese shows, overdubbed into English. The US production company got Japan to shoot a little bit of extra content when Mighty Morphin Power Rangers became a smash hit, before they started rotating to other Japanese series to take footage from. You can make more money off of the toys, anyway, if you have new action figures and mechs every year.

At the end of the Strange New Worlds musical episode, after the curse is broken, there’s a cover of the TOS theme that didn’t make it onto the album.

It’s da bomb

There’s a long-standing bug in Excel, dating back to the original release, where it thinks 1900 is a leap year. This isn’t a mistake, though, Microsoft coded it this way because Lotus 1-2-3 thought 1900 was a leap year, and they wanted to be compatible so they could import Lotus spread sheets. However, by doing this, they locked themselves in, and they need to continue to have this bug even today to be compatible with old Excel spreadsheets.

There are also two other ways to see the MLB logo: you’re either looking at the front of a left handed hitter or the back of a right handed hitter.

Make sure to lead your shot. At Apollo velocities, you’ll need to aim where the moon will be at in three days, not where it is right now.

Russia’s joint military drills with Belarus has caused Poland to shut down Poland / Belarus border crossings. A lot of Chinese goods are shipped to Europe via rail that goes through one of these crossings, so China is taking notice.

1xx - We’re still working on it

When it fails, it at least points you to the site where everyone asks for help.

Except this boy band is from the early 00’s.

Looks like some former USSR countries in Eastern Europe, like Ukraine or Lithuania, use +3 country codes. Was this always the case or was it changed after the dissolution of the USSR?

He still doesn’t understand who pays tariffs, does he?

They’re very distinctive calls. It stands out whenever some sound designer adds one of them to a jungle scene or somewhere else it doesn’t belong just to make it sound “wild.”

It’s a PC, essentially, so the hardware is always evolving, they could upgrade whenever they choose to. The advantage of any console, the Steam Deck included, is it offers a very consistent set of specs the developers can target for years. If Valve iterates too quickly, then two problems arise: One, there’s one performance goal for devs interested in making a portable game to work towards, there’s many. In addition, the Steam Deck Verified program gets a lot harder to maintain if there are too many flavors of Deck to manage. I think Valve is planing on a lifecycle similar to the major consoles.

The upside is it is all PC hardware, and there are other handheld manufacturers out there, some even running SteamOS, so if you want a higher performance rig before Valve’s ready for the SD2, you can certainly find what you’re looking for.
