  • It is notoriously hard to replicate things in labs, especially with material science.

    This was attempt to do it within 2 days of the paper being published.

    To add to that, the original researchers apparently had 10% successes rate in their lab, they wanted to perfect it before publishing their paper.

    Bad luck was that it leaked, so to make sure somebody else doesn’t get credit for their work they published what they had within hours.

    It likely will take months before this will be verified.












  • I self host through my ISP connection.

    • sendmail
    • bogofilter
    • bogofilter-milter

    The truth is that only purists will stay, and most people (even tech people) don’t give damn about being locked out.

    Google also broke things in a subtle way. You could see the person is online, if they messaged you you would get their message, if you messaged them, your message would show as delivered, but never get to them.

    So first thing you thought that maybe they are just busy. When you started suspecting something is not right then it made you think that maybe there’s an issue with Jabber etc

    I don’t think the defederation was ever announced, it was more like a bug that was never fixed.
