News Nature Retracts Controversial Room Temperature Superconductor Paper (But Not LK-99)

[Admin]

Room-temperature superconduction would be the holy grail for humanity's computing and energy-efficient future. But there are risks to being a poster-boy for the pursuit of Nobel prizes: that individuals co-opt science to advance personal goals.

Its nothing but crickets in here. HMMM I wonder why.

What are you seeking? A discussion of our continued decay from a high trust to a low trust society? Where verification is the only means one can trust?

Somebody ask Utah about cold fusion... Unfortunately a lot of these journals are just denser lies and on a rare occasion a platform to brag and show phenomenal work, but most of that amazing work is likely old trade secrets.
Lies, damned lies, and statistics, tale as old as time...

I was seeking input, and curiously enough you replied, quite well I might add. And I very much agree in many industries or lines of research are full of lies. All the more reason you need reproducibility, something LK 99 seems to be lacking thus far.

Article is right on time. I predicted a few days ago we would see another article on super conductivity, and here we are!

In a few days we will see another article about China's AI analog chip claimed to be faster than Nvidia A100 GPU. Likely to explain it was not exactly like that...

Thank you for the continued coverage on the LK-99 saga. It's a shame, wherever that shame may lie and to whomever may hold it, that the research behind the material was insufficient to drive forward the understanding of its behavior and under what conditions and formulations it could prove useful and replicable.

This article isn't about LK99, it's about an entirely different, supposed room temperature super conductor.

My mistake!
