It’s going to be in everything if it’s what they say it is. Landfills are going to be full of lead.

This is not an engine. In the linked video it has 75 distinct moving parts. It also looks like a maintenance nightmare with particulate and deposits getting into every crevice including direct access to the bearings.

Anything that has any sort of deposit will turn that thing into a monolithic cylinder in no time.

In the United States, if you’re not a white male it probably is. It was also probably pretty good for white women that didn’t want a job and wanted to be a homemaker.

It’s the exact opposite trope in my experience. The ingenious people that are always right are invariably courteous, polite and a pleasure to be around. Those a little bit lower on the intelligence rung are usually the ones that feel the ne

No, India and China are both below replacement rate. Most of South America is. Rates are evening out in sub Saharan Africa as well.

One glass with each drink (get the water without ice, it’s easier to chug down) and then two or three full glasses before I go to bed. Haven’t had a hangover in 15 years.

No, tariffs should not be equitable. If anything there should be a certain threshold of the development status of a country above which the tariffs should apply. It’s fair as well, the vast majority of greenhouse emissions up to this point

So your solution is to sit on your hands and do nothing. You may be an anti environmental shill or a simple defeatist, either ways you’re wrong. China and India are both furiously building nuclear reactors that will over time reduce their e

If I were you I would begin experimenting with gene replacement therapy. It seems like a straightforward fix in the case of Usher’s. In the worst case scenario there are things you can try in your own garage.

If I’m not mistaken those trees are planted as living fence posts. I could also be confusing it with the black locust.

This is definitely premature. If it’s real though, holy cow, can’t wait for my 200Ghz processor.

What’s the context for this? What does over mean and who did he sit down with?

The middleman hasn’t been cut out of credit payments which a lot of people end up using, at least in the US.

It isn’t though. You can use gravity to apply the weight to the superconductor and the pushback would be against gravity.

Time travel to the future is extremely exciting. Being able to pass a 1000 years in a year or two means you could observe the long term evolution of mankind over millennia. I’d much rather see that than the past if only one of the two were

You’re not getting it, either genuinely or in a more dissembling way to justify your point. Sure alcohol will make you “lose your wallet” but it’s not fundamentally changing your perspectives/outlook on life significantly unless you ab

The problem never was that you’re rubbing shoulders with the “poors”. The problem is mentally unstable people and drug addicts. Formerly there were far fewer hard drug addicts and the insane got shipped off to asylums (which we don’t have a

I’m just thinking aloud here but would this enable actual perpetual motion machines? For instance, wouldn’t the pushback from the quantum locked superconductor be an infinite source of energy?

So what if art is devalued? We are hardwired to appreciate beauty so art of some form will always be sought. Obviously there is the matter of artists losing their livelihoods but that is also an inevitable outcome of progress and always has

A strange exposition video then, I would try to remove the part that wasn’t superconducting (the part touching the magnet) before I released this. A completely floating piece of this superconductor would remove literally all doubt.

To be fair, you’re quoting only half the sentence when the second part of that sentence justifies/qualifies it rather well.

I’m sure this is on Applied Science’s (a YouTube channel) radar. He recently went on a deep dive on making YBCO superconductors so it’s right up his alley.

I don’t know enough about this but shouldn’t the entire superconductor be floating above the magnet? Why is one part still attached (or maybe attracted) to the magnet?

Enforcing artificial scarcity is idiotic and counter progressive. There will be other things that will continue to be uncommon that humans will continue to appreciate. This is what human progress looks like. Imagine someone said this when a
