The Chinese did it, they built a chip that doesn't require silicon! Their new chips use bismuth and are faster and more efficient than silicon chips.

My 10 y.o. laptop finally broke down, and it's not fixable. What I realised is that I don't really care about the new laptop (will probably just get something lightweight for under $1k), but I care a lot about properly storing my files (mainly photos). I'm paranoid about hard drives breaking down (happened to me multiple times), and I'm also not very disciplined with back up. ChatGPT told me about NAS and RAID stuff and seems like that is a perfect solution, although not quite affordable - cheapest Synology setup is ~$600. But maybe there's some other option I'm missing?

😅 Ok I thought the title was a metaphor, but it's literally just about heat. He literally called this his easiest video ever. Good old thermodynamics 👍 https://youtu.be/US6YO-IK64w

Someone built a small VTOL (vertical takeoff and landing) aircraft from scratch with no experience and shared how he designed and built it: https://www.tsungxu.com/p/first-vtol-design-build-and-flight Very cool.
