So a few months ago a bunch of us decided to stay up half the night and write a law about regulating AI. Originally this was a joke, but afterwards we looked at it and said "hey this is pritty good", why I hear you ask, well AI is becoming an embedded part of our lives, with increasing decision making and control, so it makes sense that at some point we would need to regulate it. I have to stress two things. Firstly we are not legal experts, so the wording is perhaps a little informal, and secondly this is not a real law, and probably never will be, its just a bunch of computer scientists and cyber security nerds throwing words down in a hope it makes sense.  Enjoy.

Hahn was a teenager who attempted to build a homemade nuclear reactor in his backyard in the 1990s using materials he obtained from household items and industrial sources. His project was eventually discovered by authorities, and he was investigated for potential nuclear safety and radiation hazards.

Did you know... 3 mile island was not the first major nuclear reactor disaster on American soil.  some 18 years before, near a small town called Idaho Falls a small experimental low powered nuclear reactor exploded killing all its operators and coating almost 30 miles of desert and highway in mild doses of cesium. To date it is the only reactor explosion in the US to cause instant death, and remains the only nuclear accident in US history to product Corium. This is the story of Stationary Low powered reactor 1 Or SL1 for short.

I love nuclear physics. I have always been fascinated by it. For me though there is the history of nuclear and atomic physic's. Its got a rich and somewhat checkered past, throughout its development there have always been, 'bumps' in its road.

This isn't the type of toolkit like a spanner (wratchet) set you would put together and think yeah its done! This is the type of tool kit you started collecting when you were 12 and you are still adding to it. YES its that type of toolkit, the only difference is it lives in folders of bookmarks and databases, text files and programs. Online sockpuppets and api calls. This is the info sec toolkit.
