Just yday learned something about microwaves (kitchen appliance). First produced by Raythreon in 1947 were big and expensive ($68,000 in 2023 dollars).

So it's breaktroughs, then incremental improvements in efficiency and production cost. Commercial availability allows scaling and further fall in production cost. It takes time...

I'd really like to see more eye pleasing version of this, but those symmetries are wild - Quasi-periodicity 17 fold symmetry - https://www.goldennumber.net/quasi-crystals/#jp-carousel-988...

One of the channels I check frequently is Closer to Truth. ~10min interviews with scientists about physics, neurobiology and religion. Quite stimulating if you ask me...

I recommend watching videos from juice media, funny and informative, showing corruption and shitfuckery in Australia - https://www.youtube.com/user/thejuicemedia/videos

Photonic processor is coming out this year, claiming to be up to 10x faster than nvidia A100 in BERT and using 90% less energy - https://lightmatter.co/products/envise/
