Well that didn’t take long. I had hope for like what… two days?

It is. Completely different guy, completely different superconductor.

It’s a different paper (e.g. https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-022-05294-9) from a different researcher (specifically Ranga Dias). This is not connected to the recent non-peer reviewed https://arxiv.org/abs/2307.12008

That’s good to hear. I’m still suspicious of anything that sounds like room temperature superconductivity but it’s nice to know the jury’s still out and there’s maybe hope.
