So either someone found that cat and transported it and then it got away again and turned into a shelter or we got a real life

AI and Nuclear reactors..what can go wrong

I think it depends on who has programmed the AI. Let the Navy do it. The Navy has supposedly dreamed up every possible thing that can go wrong, and then they make their sailors memorize all those problems and the solutions to try in order. That process would work great with AI, it's a bunch of yes/no steps. Apparently, civilian nuke engineers don't thrive in the Navy because they like to take time to think about what's going on instead of just doing. Basically, they know too much.

I drove across the Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel for the first (and second time) this weekend. Really neat feat of engineering, but man was I close to freaking the f*** out a few times lol
When I lived DC I used to cross that bridge to go to the Delaware beach. Always scary. I did have one very cool experience though, I was driving across it at night and there was lightning up in the clouds. It wasn’t raining and I didn’t see any strikes going to the ground, just flashes of light dancing around in the clounds- and it went on for like 15 minutes or more.

Edit: Oops. I thought I saw “bridge” not “tunnel”. Oh well. Point still stands.
