It seems convenient that the evidence to corroborate the claim can't be found yes? I think you will also find that the publications of the 1800-1900s are quite well preserved.

Indeed, but you are clearly missing the historical context as these were two highly celebrated and referenced texts of the time period by leading scientists. However, it appears that the leading scientific minds (of which Maxwell and Whitta

The most boring example is x-rays. Slightly less boring are the radiation therapies for cancer. What is maybe the most applicable that is widely accepted is electric therapy for people recovering from ACL surgeries.

Going to need some citations here since the texts that I'm familiar with from that time period are "A Treatise on Electricity and Magnetism" by Maxwell (mid-late 1800s) and "A History of the Theories of Aether and Electr

I think the requirements at the semi level are quite different than what the tooling industry will be able to produce. The silicon carbide layer thickness probably needs to be controlled at least to the 10 nm level and the film quality will

A few major elements to this that I'm really interested in: 1. wireless data transfer and how that affects the performance 2. EMG: this is alright, but seems to be a bit overhyped 3. MicroLED: clearly the best display technology availa

I think here there is a misunderstanding on the meaning of 'work'. It's most likely clear to all authors in this chain that if you take an LED and shine it onto an appropriate PV you will get voltage out of it. That much isn&

A lot more institutions, but in terms of total number of students, about 4x the UW system, ~2x amount of administrative staff, 4x the academic staff. Not saying the UW got a good deal of course, it's pretty clear based on the progress

Not quite true, especially not for the higher end research universities. The University of Washington is projected to spend $2B on modernizing IT infrastructure (which does seem like a reasonable amount). In that number though is $340M to u

Chemical reactivity isn't the only thing at play here, in fact I'd say it's more burying the lead (kekek) than addressing the issue at hand. Sure glass isn't the most inert material, but another piece of the puzzle that

This is bit of a commonly misheld perception in my opinion. It took 30-50 years for anything in the 1910s to become particularly useful. Even the photoelectric effect itself took over 30 years before the first devices (photomultipliers) we

I think you missed the memo during the pandemic then. That was the biggest supply of free money in a while for many industries.

The article mentions the use of a diffractive mask. This can be very generally associated with an optical diffuser in its function. And yes, Laura Waller at UC Berkeley has been one of the pioneers in this research for a few decades.

what a tragedy... I can't think of many sites with the impact that YouTube has had, especially during her tenure as the lead. lung cancer as well, I don't think she was a smoker so what a bad stroke of luck.
