LEGO® Block Structures as a Sub-Kelvin Thermal Insulator - Scientific Reports
We report measurements of the thermal conductance of a structure made from commercial Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) modules, known as LEGO® blocks, in the temperature range from 70 mK to 1.8 K. A power law for the sample’s thermal conductivity κ = (8.7 ± 0.3) × 10−5 T 1.75±0.02 WK−1 m−1 was determined. We conclude that this ABS/void compound material provides better thermal isolation than well-known bulk insulator materials in the explored temperature ra…

Hydrogen can't hack it; in most contexts simple electricity beats it hands down

Les bus à hydrogène de Pau bientôt mis à l'arrêt : un fiasco à 13 millions d'euros ?
Six ans après leur inauguration par Emmanuel Macron, les bus à hydrogène de Pau (Pyrénées-Atlantiques) vont déjà être remplacés. Ils devaient incarner l’avenir des transports propres, mais la station de ravitaillement enchaîne les pannes, les coûts de maintenance s’envolent et le constructeur a fait faillite. Chronique d’un projet à plusieurs millions d’euros qui tourne au fiasco.

The Trump administration is requiring states to change the way they conduct elections
or risk losing tens of millions of federal terrorism-prevention funds,
in its latest move that would make voting harder and undermine trust in results that don’t go Trump’s way.
The effort would force states to transition to paper ballots,
verify citizenship of voters
and make other changes to election procedures, according to Federal Emergency Management Agency documents.

New Rules Require Election Changes for States to Get Terrorism Grants
Federal officials said they would withhold some money unless states pursue paper ballot systems, verify citizenship and conduct costly audits.
