21 days agoTesla has to write in a clause saying that buyers aren’t allowed to sell the vehicle for 2 years and a large number of owners are already desperate to break that agreement.
Doesn’t that break the ‘first-sale doctrine’ to limit someone’s ability to on-sell a product they own?
That’s not at all what happened with the Demon Core. On its own, you could not do anything to it that would make it reach supercriticality. The experiments that were conducted on it involved neutron reflective materials. With the addition of neutrons back into the core, that pushed it closer and closer to criticality. Both incidents occurred when too much reflective material was added around the core and it reached supercriticality, a sustained chain reaction.
