What a time to be alive, to find such ultra high quality and inspiring materials for free. When I was young I spend so much time with an illegal copy of Encarta (which sparked my career as a scientist) and already considered myself to be fortunate... What a time to be alive.by teekert

I didn’t know how electrolysis really worked, and probably still don’t but I know a little more, and these cheap ion filtering membranes are absolutely wild, and turning the graphite fire blanket into a super high surface area electrode is super interesting. I remember when he re-made the “lost” aerogel-like substance a while back and wonder if we can make graphite aerogel-likes using similar processes somehow for super high surface area electrodes. Sometimes I think I’m more interested in practical materials science than software engineering, but at 39 years old I am probably past the point of going to university to actually study. Of course, unless we all get UBI quickly because of Claude 8.5 taking everyone’s jobs.by robinduckett
