Added 2022-09-14 12:29:08 +0000 UTCThis is a video that was requested by a lot of people. On Saturday we will talk about metamaterials and what we can do with them: superlenses, invisibility cloaks, earthquake protection, and also chocolate.

We can be on about several different topics at once.
2022-09-18 16:32:08 +0000 UTCMeanwhile, a forest somewhere is burning. This is not a knock on Sabine's subject. If I were much younger, I would focus on an education that would allow me to consider: 1: The development of a eco-friendly bio-degradable plastic-like material. 2: An algorithm for forest planning the that minimized the spread of wildfires and maximize our ability to put them out. 3: Develop an automated wildfire extinguishing system that uses autonomous drones and a satellite detection system. 4: Fool-proof nuclear energy usage (1% of the fusion budget should be enough). 5: Closed loop factory system that captures and recycles the waste produced by energy production and water usage. Make the list long enough and we might just make a dent in the climate crisis. P.S: I do not believe fusion investors are in it to save the world, I believe they are in it for the money. Meaning, if someone discovers a cheap novel method of producing sustainable fusion that could be brought to market, it would not see the light of day.
