It's because it's a piece of news that doesn't cause outrage and polarization so they don't know how to profit off it.

Man, I'm feeling stronger about LK-99 being it. This paper is theoretical and she finds that particular Cu substitutions onto specific Pb atomic sites are key to enabling a band structure that is usually linked to high Tc superconducto

It's only been a week! I'm a materials scientist and the recipes for material growth are true for their systems. I have to find the truth on my system, so if a recipe calls for a deposition temperature of 100 C and anneal at 600 C

"Just a 48yo American engineer who allegedly shouldn't have had access" We don't know that at all. Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.

Their PPMS is limited to 400K. There's nothing they can do about that. So yes, it is a nitpicking. I've used the same instrument, that's the max temperature quantum design allows without forking over more money. It matters t

I wonder about this so much, why does this particular set of people obsess/fixate on this unimportant part of the question?? I see it happen over and over.

Useful? It would be a veritable revolution if we had access to room temperature, ambient pressure superconductors. Applications would be everywhere, even new ones would arise from people tinkering with it.

Other experimental groups have failed to reproduce his results. There's good reason to be skeptical of this until we get multiple groups confirming it's real.

Jesus christ these headlines. Ambient is supposed to mean room temperature and pressure. This alleged superconductor is a high pressure one. External groups have not been able to reproduce his results.

Orcas are orcanizing! Orcas are cultural animals that are similar to us in that fads are a thing for them. A while back they had a fad where they'd kill a salmon and wear it as a hat. I think this is a fad, they're having fun, it&

The clones that drew the most attention all ended up becoming right-wing cesspools. I remember they were often created because of free-speech absolutism which was code for "I want to express hateful views without consequence".

The UC Berkeley library is getting its funding cut. The physics library and some other have been closed.

We don't know yet, we're slowly finding out who had exposure to what and how things are interconnected. It's a complicated machine and we'll probably know only after the fact. There's a lot of damage control messagi

In my opinion the Fed should be more decisive and data-dependent. In 2021 the Fed stubbornly stuck to an "inflation is transitory" narrative that meant they did not start raising rates all of 2021 when most people could see the ex

When I was in grad school I had done measurements of the magnetic anisotropy of amorphous compounds. I had found an interesting link between the structure and the magnetic properties which is surprising since the material is amorphous, the

It's crazy that AMZN announces this and the stock goes up in after hours trading. People are losing their livelihoods yet rich people only care about the potential higher profits. This is very disconnected from reality, amzn needs cons

You guys always take it to the extreme. It's an optimization problem. The market thinks 10% is a pretty good number that will translate into higher profits, likely because they believe the people laid off are non-essential to the busin

I would also add that he's one of those people that benefit greatly from bad press. He's able to monetize the hatred. An article like this and the attention we pay him ultimately benefit him.

I don't like the communication that's been set forth by LLNL and DOE, it has misled many people into thinking that fusion is a done deal and we're on our way to limitless, clean energy. The reality is that charging up the las

I'd be very careful with anything fungal on my body. Last thing I'd want is a fungal infection in my lungs or something dreadful like that. This looks like the classic human folly were we get blinded and overhyped by the usefulnes

That's crazy considering we just had a pandemic.

The amount of media attention to the layoffs seems disproportional to the number of people actually laid off no? 1000 people? There's high schools with more than that. Local to twitter yeah that's a big fraction. But compared to t

In my opinion the reason is political, that is, I think zero-covid policy is a form of citizen control to prevent protests/insurrection against the accumulation of power by Xi, but also against the economic crumbling surrounding the co

No it definitely is technical, we need a lot of materials science and RF electronics to get things to work better with each other. We need better material growth and device fabrication techniques and better readout schemes.
