Yep. This is one of those world changing tech advances.
Replication is a huge step.
But I temper the excitement with the memory that I read my first The Coming Room Temp Superconductor revolution 30 or so years ago. IIRC it was a cover story in Scientific American in the early 90s.
That said, fuck I hope they have cracked a scalable RTS.
First off, don't refer to the 90's as "30" years ago. That's just rude dude....
Second, yeah this has been an ongoing theme for decades....
Wait, did I get old? What the fuck?!
Nah. No one every gets old... Old is always 10 years older than you are now.
Agreed, I want to believe so bad, but the Meisner effect is so easy to fake with cameras that even video proof doesn’t cut it for me. I guess at this point it’ll take a preprint from a National Lab . Thankfully that won’t take long apparently given how easy this is to synthesize.
The 90s were 30 years ago? Damn.
"The Matrix" was released closer in time to the French Revolution than to today.
Please. Spare me.
GenXer reading this... First time?
