    I’m still trying to not get too excited but its getting difficult with all the new videos and replications. We’re getting close to real world hoverboards!

      hoverboards are nice and all but if this helps us with nuclear fusion itll be a world changer.

        Fusion and compact magnetic imaging, we’d have a tricorder and a path to a: higher density magnetic storage, 2: possible magnetic fabrication, via precise layer deposition.

        Supercapacitors should be interesting too.

      Evidence that the class of materials is a thing is decently solid so far (but will still take a few months to confirm).

      The hard bit of finding a process or another material in the class with a yield of more than a couple of milligram specks per kg of input starts after that.

      Plus even then, the anisotropy (it only works in one direction) will give it some odd limitations. Still really cool though
