It's just cool stuff. Liquid metal! < used to have a game called Mercury Meltdown which < was obsessed with, in which you direct a globule of mercury around an obstacle course by tilting the level. That probably fuelled <'s obsession.

< congratulates ^ on getting a new page

< thinks ^’s opinions are fair enough

< wonders if people are tired after yesterday.

< knows people definitely are

< had a good rest after yesterday. < needed to disconnect a bit from the Internet, but < is full of energy rn.

< didn’t really face much issues with RD because < found it like a regular day just with more hype down here

< finds it amusing that we were discussing governance and resignations in the Glade during Record Day, and meanwhile the day before, Patrick Freyne had written about governance under the Jedis in one of his delicious TV reviews!

"Daad, it says non-toxic!" "Well, that's a plus!"

< finds gallium frustrating because in theory it's a better fit than boron to p-dope a silicon wafer (in terms of atom size) but the low melting point translates into a high diffusivity, making it useless

< finds that article very bizarre

< thinks it’s unusual to see Ambi without the mini-Jane rank. But the idea of being able to hold a liquid metal in one’s hand is really cool.

< is mystified at ^^’s knowledge, as usual.

Mini-Jane < can’t even imagine it

< thinks mini-Jane sounds funny.

< thinks ceramics are the future of semiconductors as they're slowly proven to be more efficient for different applications. Perovskite solar cells, for example, are surprisingly efficient, but unfortunately they're not that resistant. < thinks that's some interesting work to do.

< is interested in what a “mini Jane” rank would look like

Hahaha < sees <’s not the only one who finds it funny

< wants to see if anyone will make a “mini Jane” rank (whatever that’d look like )

F***!

< sees clearly that auto correct has struck < again.

< really wants to see the mini Jane rank

< imagines a mini-Jane rank might involve a small version of Patrick Jane:

< has a colleague who worked on those for her PhD actually!

< Asks if someone can make it and give Ambi it on RD next year?

< may or may not remember to do that
