I only skimmed the article, but would creating something similar to the homestead act, but with regards to low population residential areas be a workable solution? Population dispersal seems like an interesting topic.

Well I just found out that I was grossly underestimating the danger of handling Cf-252, given its half-life.

Look what ORNL used to transport 1g: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Californium#/media/File%3ACf...

This is the cheap go-to method for fusor enthusiasts to check for fast neutron production.

You'd probably be interested in the metastable isotopes of hafnium, too. Most notably 178m2Hf.

Depending on the amount, a license would be required.

Thanks for building it!
I trained a least-squares linear regression model to predict the 'sharability' of a given sale using n-gram feature hashing on data I scraped, applied weights and normalized by percentile, from social media sites.

It's built using Huginn[0], Azure ML[1], and Wordpress.

If anyone has any suggestions to improve the model, or really anything else, please feel free to comment or drop me an email at [email protected]

The skimlinks JS code automatically rewrites any links within their affiliate system, including amazon. I only suggested it because you'd only need to copy/paste a few lines of code to rewrite everything.

Have you tried something like skimlinks/viglink? I think you could use either as a medium to amazon associates and still get paid.

I'm using skimlinks with my project and it seems to work pretty well, though it does take a while to get paid.

Beryllium's also used as a neutron multiplier.
