re: “An Electrifying Improvement in Copper Conductivity”
By “conventional wisdom” they mean conventional opinion. “A common carbon compound is enabling remarkable performance enhancements when mixed in just the right proportion with copper to make electrical wires. It’s a phenomenon that defies conventional wisdom about how metals conduct electricity.” more “… Materials scientist Keerti Kappagantula and her colleagues at DOE’s Pacific Northwest National…
Who could build a fusion reactor
Reading this in Asianews my first reaction was >They have photos of the one of the magnets on a table in a lab and give the technical specs. Fwiw I believe in these, and that they will make it much easier to contain the high temperature. What I do not believe in is the physics…
quick science post about the QI propulsion test
Since I just wrote an opinion post. The theory of quantized inertia (QI) was thought up by Mike McCulloch. His latest blog post. Among other things, it predicts a new method of propulsion, which would only work in outer space. A few years ago the USA govt agency DARPA funded some startup ~$1M. This June,…
about the Western culture
Imagine a person in the following way: the outer body is a kind of house for the mind & soul. Most who accurately see themselves inside such a ‘house’ will make moral decisions; they will be captain of themselves. the outer body will be an ‘armor of God’, and the soul will move roughly in…
What happens where a liquid touches a solid? -quick MM
The best movie animations these days model liquid flow but physics, not so much. There is non-zero drag. My guess is this real effect is likely to derive from Miles Mathis theory. Something like: the hadrons (protons & neutrons) channeling density increases between liquid to solid at the boundary. Which in turn binds the liquid…
Veritasium with on his weakest videos, in more than one way
Top Youtube science vlogger, with many good videos on his channel, has sunk in the deep end with this one. Maybe he started, obtained his usual access, then could not stop. The sun orbits the solar system mostly ‘head first’ from this video. TBF I could not finish the video, it was so bad. It…
Solar flare spikes just when .. oh my
Solar models face actual tests every 11 years or so. With the new solar cycle the mainstream theory has taken it on the chin. And, yes, is false. But what is true? Miles Mathis two days ago: “The Day Mainstream Science Died.” Frustration has built up and he finishes personal, does a photo comparison. That…
Egos to the left of them, rode the fewer than six hundred
Wow, do I dread parsing what it going on in those science fields I follow. Not incidental fields, either. Not that any specifically involved will read this. For which I am thankful. Yet my dread in what I am about to type conjures up a precious rewording of that famous Kipling poem about charging into…
I am prioritizing a new site
This site may go on hiatus. I had been planning to cover some Science as it actually is right now. This I feel nearly qualified to do. Even as a bit of heretic. Right now there is both a lot of amazing science and some fields past their sale dates. The new site is called…
re: lifting with morality
The PushingRubberDownhill blogger has changed his mind about the need for a man to become spiritual before becoming a lifter (of weights). This spurred lively discussion. I have never been a lifter. Yet, it sounds abstruse but the cognitive mapping of virtue is important for the future of humankind. e.g. It is not just LIFTING…
