I implemented several updates in the platform, based on all the feedback received in the last 24 hs. Thanks to all the folks that helped improving the platform!

BTW it was pinned as a resource in the nuclear subreddit, which makes me very happy: people is finding it very useful!

ok! I'll add a filter in this page, looking forward to deploy an update in next hours.

thanks! and your comments are in the right direction, I plan to integrate other layers of the global energy network, with a better visualization of nuclear proportion by region/country.

a reaction to 2011 fukushima event. The ironic fact: if you check japan nuclear power evolution, they just had a small drop and later keep growing, nowadays in top 3!

Thanks! As I explained below, my first language is spanish and my intention was to provide fluid answers. Suggestion accepted.

THanks for your support defrost. Indeed, Im from Argentina and I tried to improve my answers assisted with AI. No more asistance, but I'm not that fluid in english!

I have changed the UI, now both power and research layers are on by default, so you should see nuclear pins in Australia at first sight. Thanks for the feedback!

thanks for your support! Im passionate about nuclear fusion as well, and there will be more projects to come from my side..! Feel free to share your projects in the community! Happy to take a look

The natural reactor in Oklo is a great one! It isn't a facility so it doesn't fit the current layers, but it deserves its own entry: added in the backlog and will be updated soon!

Thanks for the feedback! Al these are welcome and Im taking note for improvements. On the 2D map UI: you can select the 2D option right above the years slider. I hope it works as expected! Will update soon with the other improvements!

Sure! not a translation bug! The monitoring section you mention is part of the “signals” layer, where I’m tracking things like increases/decreases in power generation and grid contributions. I think this kind of data could be useful for operators and institutions. The Monitoring/News section, on the other hand, is 99% nuclear.

And yeah, fair point on the coding comment. I guess I still enjoy it too much! I’ll publish some piece of code fully coded by my own fingers one of these days

Hi HN, I'm a nuclear engineer and tech entrepreneur. After working for 3 years in the National Atomic Energy Commision (CNEA) in HPC software for nuclear simulations, I co-founded ratherlabs.com, a software company providing blockchain solutions for startups. Rather Labs business reached ~6 million usd in annual revenue in 2024; now demand is decreasing as our niche clients are using AI to launch their MVPs.

Now I'm joining my scientific background with my entrepreneurial inclinations to think of problems related to the energy industry. Nuclear is experiencing a renaissance now (it was in a dark age when I was studying after the Fukushima event) so I think this is the right moment for me to jump again into the field.

Reactor atlas is an interactive nuclear reactor map and an intelligence layer on top of it. The basic layer indexes:

  - power reactors
  - research reactors
  - fuel facilities

with their history and projection, by country. The project is solving a fragmented information ecosystem, where operational and commercial data is hard to conciliate. Also, I'm monitoring nuclear news associated with each of the facilities, political declarations that may affect the nuclear landscape and geo-phisical news (like earthquakes) that could affect operation. On top of the operational + news layer, I'm creating an intelligence layer that will help institutions of different types make faster decisions by subscribing to very specific alerts.

As an engineer, I used to code in fortran and c++ when I was working at CNEA, and later I participated in the first Rather Labs projects architecting complex async systems, mostly using MERN stack. I'm no longer coding anymore. I'm focused on designing robust systems with AI agents.

I mainly used Claude Fable 5.1 to develop reactoratlas.com, deploying on vercel and using mostly nextjs, threejs, postgreSQL and some cron jobs to query and update data. I miss coding as in the old days, but I haven't code a single line in this project. And I strongly believe we humans shouldn't code anymore: our responsibility is now on designing and supervising AI systems.

Thanks for your attention!

New comment by fedecaccia in "How to Become a Blockchain Engineer?"

fedecaccia — Thu, 22 Sep 2022 12:28:23 +0000

I started my path as BE 5 years ago and now I run a blockchain company.

My strategy was: 1 - learn just the basics on each vertical (bitcoin, EVM, smart contracts, consensus protocols, game theory) - it wasn't difficult having a background as engineer 2 - get a job as PM/PO to be in touch with as many projects as I can 3 - get a deep understanding of the market needs 4 - start working as low level developer on a particular (selected) project, to understand the core and become an expert 5 - manage my own team to sell services (outsourcing) to other entrepreneurs 6 - scale num.5

I share with you a doc I wrote a time ago, describing the roadmap I propose to learn the basics: https://medium.com/rather-labs/the-roadmap-to-become-a-block...

Also, if you want to check my company, you can do it at ratherlabs.com

I wish you the best on this exciting path!
