YouTube: https://youtu.be/dnRSrU8Gwmc Audio version: https://share.transistor.fm/s/8ba9f9c9 Matt had the chance to chat with Julie Slaughter from the Ames National Laboratory about their research into magnetocalorics (using magnets for heating and cooling). Do you think this is an attractive idea? Or does it repulse you?
Latest follow-up podcast is out! YouTube: https://youtu.be/5gs1Gr8BhQo Audio: https://share.transistor.fm/s/cc243a29 Sean and I talk about how AI is impacting us today. As well as a recent change in lithium-sulfur battery research, and how that might change the energy storage market. Stinky sulfur may finally be leaving its mark.
