Lets see how "move fast and break things" will work in nuclear industry
4 comments

Breaking things was exactly why nuclear power even got started.
That's wrong. Nuclear power plants were started after the "breaking things" part.
Right, that's why public sentiment around nuclear was and has been so hard fought, because it had never failed in a catastrophic manner in history.
OP clearly meant nuclear weapons, not power generation accidents.
but they're breaking someone else's things, not your own.
Fission tends to move quite fast and break a lot of things, so... I'd say they'll produce a lot of energy.
what about don't get permission ask forgiveness?
"What would you do if you weren't afraid?"

"Focus on impact."

Every Facebook/Meta corp slogan works.

Didn't they try that in Chernobyl in 1986?
