This is an amazing video. Joe Lonsdale, Palantir co-founder, interviews Brian Chau, founder of Effort News.
Worth the watch worth a signal boost.

Happy 4th of July, America. Happy 250th!
From the Great White North, best wishes for a fun day of hotdogs and burgers today. Enjoy, you earned it.

The propaganda, it burns.
Now we have something so stupid it could only come from "Researchers".
Researchers found that common nitrile and latex lab gloves can shed stearate particles that closely resemble microplastics, potentially "increasing the risk of false positives when studying microplastic pollution," reports ScienceDaily.
Not following even the most basic lab procedures, check.
I haven't had much to say previously about "microplastics" as I think it is a self-refuting scam, but this is too classic to pass by.
No, plastic particles are not getting into your brain, liver, gut etc. They are too big, essentially. That's the bottom line.

Furnace in spaaaace!
It's been quite a while since I posted anything sciency, but in my defense the news hasn't been that inspiring. Mostly nonsense, sadly.
But now, for the New Year something exciting. A new company called Space Forge has lit a furnace in orbit that can reach 1000 degrees Celcius.
A UK-based company has successfully powered up a microwave-sized space factory in orbit, proving it can run a 1,000C furnace to manufacture ultra-pure semiconductor materials in microgravity. "The work that we're doing now is allowing us to create semiconductors up to 4,000 times purer in space than we can currently make here today," says Josh Western, CEO of Space Forge.
Higher purity metals and semi-conductors means smaller, faster chips, stronger materials and etc. My favorite science fiction material is iron whisker crystals, which are known to be ridiculously stronger than regular high-tensile steel. In a zero-gravity furnace you could grow iron whiskers of any desired length, in industrial quantities. And who knows, maybe they can make graphene and buckytubes as well.
Exciting times, my friends!
