Today’s a dear friend’s birthday, and I’ve got a really cool present for them!

Getting an initial impression of some new field I want to learn about. I ask the model for a short summary and links to more in-depth information. This would be more difficult to do on my own when I don’t even know where to start.

Microprocessor manufacturing. Just think about it: we invent a device called the transistor. We’re making them one by one and using them to make computers. And then, we just find the way to cram more and more of those devices in tiny, dirt cheap slabs of silicon that are literal computers by themselves. In 2021, a typical processor contained 60 billion transistors.

Thanks, great insight!

Interesting. Liquid ventilators do use pumps; I guess because, as you say, we can’t push the liquid fast enough with our own force. But I think some research setups only fill the lungs and then use a regular oxygen ventilator, so maybe it’s not that infeasible to survive in a perfluorodecalin-filled tank for at least a few minutes, before becoming exhausted?

I’d say perfluorocarbons, like perfluorodecalin. Harmless and clear, but they have huge oxygen absorption capacity, so you’d surely be able to breathe even if you sank your face in it (probably not fun to do so tho).
