"Unsafe is the stupidest language feature (on a technical level)", Nadri says. It's just an arbitrary constraint to call code with the unsafe keyword, with only the unsafe keyword. Therefore, it's mostly a social that "works super well".

Given #Protectionism like the #ChickenTax #Tarriffs on actually reasonably sized #MiniTrucks the #US has no right to complain.
Sadly, the last good car from the USA (that isn't a road-legal Dragstrip Suicide Machine or 4x4 Solid Axle Outdoor Toy) was the #Ford #CVPI / #P71 & #P72a models that got axed in 2012.

Karen #Silkwood's sudden death unpacked in ABC documentary
The four-part podcast unearths never-before-heard audio tapes.

"Fifty years ago, the death of a 28-year-old #plutonium plant worker and whistleblower in Oklahoma -- a death many found mysterious and sparked decades of speculation -- shocked the nation.
"The official story was that Karen Silkwood died in a one-car crash on Nov. 13, 1974. She was on her way to meet a New York Times journalist, reportedly to hand over documents she'd secretly been collecting at her job at a #NuclearFacility. The Oklahoma State Highway Patrol concluded that Silkwood fell asleep at the wheel -- possibly under the influence of prescribed drugs --- drove off the highway, crashed into a ditch, and died.
"'We’ve never believed it,' Mike Boettcher said of the official narrative. Boettcher and his reporting partner Bob Sands, both veteran Oklahoma journalists, say many in Oklahoma speculate that Karen Silkwood may have died for what she knew.
"Silkwood's story has become widely known, inspiring several books, articles, and a major motion picture.
Silkwood worked at a nuclear fuel production plant that manufactured #plutonium fuel rods to power a new type of nuclear reactor, which was part of a multi-million dollar experiment to enhance #nuclear energy. When she noticed what she felt were #unsafe working conditions -- such as leaks, spills and co-workers frequently getting #contaminated with #RadioactiveMaterial -- she spoke up and tried to make improvements.
"'Karen became nuclear energy's first #whistleblower, though the term whistleblower was just starting to be used,' Boettcher said. 'This was at a time when the idea of someone inside of a big corporation exposing alleged misdeeds was shocking.'
"Silkwood's allegations, contamination, and untimely death sparked an investigation by the Oklahoma Highway Patrol, an FBI inquiry, a civil lawsuit, several appeals, a congressional hearing and two appearances before the U.S. Supreme Court."

Want to find out how your city handles homelessness? Walk into a local shelter on a cold night

An easy way to find out how your city handles homelessness is to walk into a local shelter on a cold night. Look around. Say hello. Get a feel for the place. If you wouldn’t be comfortable sleeping there, why would anyone else want to?
I have zero fear of cops & even less fears over cowardly bootlickers. I've been facing off cops for over 3 decades. Some island colonial carrying cowardly mofos don't even know until they have to face off with me or make online racist mistakes like #MatWright - willing accomplice to #RCMP & #Unsafe person for #POCFolks.
I am going to BLOCK anyone who boosts this fucker, going forward.
Scientist: #plutonium #contamination still present in #NewMexico's #AcidCanyon
by Roz Brown
Friday, August 23, 2024
"A scientist who said he found extreme plutonium contamination in #LosAlamos' Acid Canyon believes concerned residents should invest in monitoring equipment for greater peace of mind.
"Over a 20-year period ending in 1963, liquid and often #RadioactiveWaste was dumped down the canyon.
"#MichaelKetterer, professor emeritus of chemistry and biochemistry, Northern Arizona University, presented findings to #NuclearWatch New Mexico about water, soil and plant samples he collected at the site 60 years later. He believes people living nearby should follow his lead.
"'New Mexicans, you guys can do this too,' Ketterer urged. 'Your state needs a community instrument, not one run by the state or the locals or by #DOE, one run by the community. You can do this too.'
"Ketterer pointed out the instrument would provide those downstream updated contamination readings. In 1967, the Atomic Energy Commission worked to clean up the area before releasing the land to Los Alamos County without any restrictions on uses. A County Councilor who attended the presentation said they have not received any notification from the federal government about Acid Canyon being #unsafe.
"The canyon now features a dirt trail shaded by pines, providing easy recreational opportunities. Ketterer noted the levels of plutonium contamination were the highest he's ever seen in an area without restricted access.
"'You know this is happening in an area with full public access,' Ketterer emphasized. 'Anybody's child or dog can go down there, contact water, the sediments, the plants. What actions has #EPA taken or should EPA take to stop this?"
"#NuclearWatchNewMexico is pushing for increased cleanup of legacy waste from Los Alamos National Laboratory. The group also opposes new #PlutoniumPit production proposed near the site and worries future #wildfires in the area could possibly disperse plutonium through falling ash."
