Do you find the times article bait and switch? My reading was it is something never seen before, and I found it interesting and exciting and the properties discussed seemed unique (the pressure+heat=lots of energy particularly). But as an expert in the field, is the headline over stating the result to entice clicks?
- ghaff 4y ago>Do you find the times article bait and switch? No. It's accurate if unspecific. The dek is also a good teaser. "medium-density amorphous ice" is mentioned in the photo caption at the top. And the lede is both clever and summarizes things at a layman's level. I'm not really an expert on ice. My thesis advisor is but I actually worked on Nickel Aluminides though that branch of my thesis advisor's work never ended up really going anywhere. But this seems like a very reasonable (and readable) article for a mainstream audience on the topic. Sure. I might like to see some phase diagrams, etc. but I don't expect that in a newspaper.
