The humility is refreshing, compared to anime girl. Also, the photos/videos are not shot using a potato.

Exactly, that Russian anime girl shud not be getting any credit, I don’t say this because of her anonymity but because of her absolute refusal to take a video or do absolutely anything that can make outsiders trust her claims.

  I don't understand why she would be like this. Why would anyone hold back the production process for a material that could change humanity forever?

    Lots of bizarre pro-Soviet behaviour from her as well which feels somehow connected
    - refulgentis 3y ago
      She's _literally_ Russian, not ironically. So not so bizarre.

        Well, she said, she's ethnically Ukrainian. It was great times for us during the USSR so not that's why I was finding it a bit odd.

    Why? Simple, there's lots of mentally ill people on this planet. Anime profile pictures are usualy a redflag. These kind of people should only be ignored since they never want to cooperate.

      That sort of comment is completely unnecessary and ignorant on so many levels. Do better.

      > Anime profile pictures are usualy a redflag. These kind of people should only be ignored since they never want to cooperate. A lot of them are simply trans and tired of dealing with constant harassment campaigns directed towards their gender identity. Of course they're wary about cooperations with people they don't intimately trust.

        There would have to be a lot of cognitive dissonance to be illegally trans yet self identity as "ethnically soviet" on a social media bio.

        It takes a lot of cognitive dissonance to be pro USSR in the first place, so a little more shouldn't hurt.

        USSR means something different to Russians than it does to Americans. To Americans it was the Enemy. To Russians it was the last time that Russia was truly important on the world stage and had some degree of prosperity.

        just some good ole nostalgia for stalin's purges!

    Her methods were improvised and lacking, by her own admission. There are several world class labs working on this today. There's basically zero chance a junior researcher doing amateur chemistry in the kitchen is going to outperform the best groups in the world at figuring out how to synthesize this thing with decent yield, and then characterizing it.

  Looks like there's at least three other people in front of Andrew on the "first floaty flake replication" list[0], and something like four more efforts where the flakes didn't float which arguably still counts as replications.
