#2So, has anyone seen any of the replication studies start coming in yet? From what I've read we seem to be waiting on those. (and I think they're likely coming today or tomorrow?)

I'm following this fellow: https://twitter.com/andrewmccalip
Seems to have the right energy

Here’s a more colorful play by play as well:

#4There is really nothing new reported on the site. They seem to cite a lot of HN comments from previous posts.

#5Can someone explain why this is a big deal? The author cites that it doesn't need an explanation, but I definitely need one lol.

#6"this may spark a revolution in electronics as significant as the invention of the transistor, vacuum tube, and induction motor."
How, exactly?

#7Just for fun: Am I the only one who thinks there's connection between this and the UAP news that's coming out? RTSC would probably enable a lot of incredible energy & maneuverability capabilities...
Sorry, indulging in a little off-topic conspiracy theorizing.

You could look at any of the other threads where that has been discussed to death

It is fun to joke about alien technology.
But they are unrelated in reality. In fact they are pretty uncorrelated in terms of timeline. This material has supposedly been waiting in the wings for a while.

Conduct electricity with zero resistance. This has been possible at cryogenic temperatures (powers supermagnets, MRI etc) but running at room temperature _and pressure_ means in theory that you don’t need expensive support machinery. Has been the holy grail for the field.
If true, this specific case is only low current, but demonstrates such a thing is possible - almost certainly winning an instant Nobel Prize.
