Now that a group at MIT has proved that “magic angles” can produce #superconductivity in carbon sheets, physicists are trying to apply the twistronics approach to other configurations of graphene.

Someone needs to do a "three rules of robotics club" that merges fight club rules and Asimov rules.. I cant come up with anything funny though :(
What should I make mty new email?
I just realied my personal website hasnt joined any web-rings yet! Oh no!
Thanks to @design_RG I just got in a model-M keyboard... trying it out now to write this toot, my first official act on the keyboard :)

My favorite is sublimation because its one that you can see happening and its a bit surreal.. Camphor is an easy and fun one as you can extract it pretty easily with some basic setup, or just buy it (they sell it as a superstitious thing to certain groups so oddly you can find it at the right stores). To see a solid object just slowly (or if you heat it up quickly) disappear into nothingness is always cool to see as it doesnt seem real.
A very close second for me though is supercritical point, especially if your lucky enough to see it (its usually at too high a pressure to see but there are youtube videos of people creating high pressure clear chambers to witness it). Like sublimation its one of the few phase changes that you can watch and its surreal and cool to see, though sadly unlike sublimation you are unlikely to be able to witness it or experiment with it yourself without investing a decent amount of money.
Other types are really cool but there is nothing to actually see, to it, so its not really as fun even if its pretty cool.. Those would be
1) super conductivity, but especially type II (not the type you normally hear about) as that gives rise to the flux pinning effect
2) Quantum condensation is also a cool phase state change as it allows light to be slowed down to super slow speeds and other cool effects.

Firs the pressure of approximately the same experiment, and my calculations for the number of moles of it
Not very much really
Interesting Fact of the Day:
Current climate change is happening at a pace 6.2 times faster than the climate change that resulted from the asteroid impact that killed the dinosaurs.
We have had 1.06 C change in about 150 years. The dinosaurs experienced a 4.5 degree change over 4,000 years. So for the dinosaurs it changed at a pace of 0.001125 C per year for us it has been about .007 degrees per year. So current climate change is happening 6.2x faster than it did during the extinction of the dinosaurs.

Interesting fact of the day: After the asteroid impact that led to the extinction of the dinosaurs it took 32,000 years after the event for the dinosaurs to go extinct.
The climate change itself that resulted took about 4,000 years to fully take effect.
People often say how Climate Change might be a natural process but people don't realize how absurd that is and why scientists laugh at the very idea. Even unnatural climate change like the asteroid that killed the dinosaurs is much MUCH slower than the climate change we are witnessing today. Literally there has never been a point in the history of life on earth where global temperatures have changed as quickly as they are changing now.
For two days now ive been thinking on and off about how much air it would take to fill a balloon in a perfect vacuum :)
