Hopping on to say I'm Incredibly proud of our team today!

[Jacob DeWitte @jakedewitte]

Do not lose sight of this

Conclusion based on results only 😊

#Onthisday in 1969, the Zero Power Physics Reactor started up. This low-power reactor provided physics data for EBR-II and other fast neutron spectrum reactors. #70yearsofINL

Haiku version for #HaikuPoetryDay:

Why "market" cash comp?
"Our options and mission rule"
Your team must believe

[Jacob DeWitte @jakedewitte]

Critically important point.

[Emma Redfoot @EmmaRedfoot]

Ahmed Abdulla discusses how public financing can actually harm projects if investors view those financing mechanisms as less reliable. Makes sense if a technology is viewed as not viable on its own, only w government support. #FastestPathToZero @SustainUCSD

@AmSciMag Interesting graphic, but need to include water use for all sources, including hydro, solar, and wind.

[Jacob DeWitte @jakedewitte]

These two have done a ton to help advanced nuclear. Well deserved and congratulations!

[GAINnuclear @GAINnuclear]

Congrats 🎉 to @LABraase & @JohnJaxon1971, GAIN team members, for their achievements and dedication.

They were awarded the @INL Vision Award last Friday night 🏆

@JasonRedd76 I understand your frustration. Maybe some nighttime yard work and trimming is next?

[Jacob DeWitte @jakedewitte]

Auburn was just robbed by a missed call. I don’t know what the right answer is but we need to figure out a review system so that these kinds of things don’t affect game outcomes.

[Jacob DeWitte @jakedewitte]

Also reminds me how thankful I am that really large doses of ionizing radiation will sterilize pretty much everything. Might want to explore that more often for decontamination purposes.

This really illustrates the need for advances in probiotics. https://t.co/Vsz7ZNkXoq

But he's often wrong about advanced reactor technologies

[Jacob DeWitte @jakedewitte]

If you see Ed Lyman quoted in an article about nuclear it's most likely he is wrong on most or all accounts. He is anti-nuclear, has little technical credibility, and should not be given a platform as an expert by media organizations. Please do better journalists!

[Jacob DeWitte @jakedewitte]

(all of this has been done and demonstrated before by the way)

[Jacob DeWitte @jakedewitte]

Recent quote on fast reactors is wrong on all accounts. They actually can offer superior economics, safety, and security. Oh, and they can recycle waste. That's a pretty powerful combination and value proposition.

[Jacob DeWitte @jakedewitte]

@jm_desp Absolutely. That was egregious.

[Jacob DeWitte @jakedewitte]

@nuclearkatie They often have nothing to say. An all too common reality of executive culture, especially in industries like this.

[Jacob DeWitte @jakedewitte]

@NickVise Have to disagree on that one, many APIs treat that as coordinates information, far more efficient to put it in the appropriate field so APIs read that to a phone call.

[Jacob DeWitte @jakedewitte]

Observation: you can use smart links on conference call invites that take you right to the conference call. Also, phone numbers are not a location, better to enter them elsewhere on a calendar invite.
