Hugely excited to share my company @cfs.energy has just launched our public-facing blog, the Tokamak Times!! Take a look: blog.cfs.energy

This is a space for ANYONE interested in the fusion industry to learn more - journalists, policymakers, investors, and especially the general public!
The Tokamak Times | The power of the stars, delivered on Earth.
With fusion energy headed toward the power grid, it's time for the world to understand this technology better. And we're set on making that happen. Introducing, the Tokamak Times.

I went to the art museum today and it was super fun! I got to see this cool guy with a ball and this cute rat

Can't believe I'm wasting my time with the S&P500. I could've bet it all on eggs two years ago and 5x'ed my life savings

Today, for the first time ever, I plugged a piece of hardware into a server rack. Somehow this feels like a coming-of-age moment.

If you could fix one☝🏻 piece of terminology in your field, what would it be?

I’ll go first👇🏻(replying to myself like it’s normal)

Someone made a LEGO model of a tokamak (a style of magnetically-confined fusion device) and I want this so badly, please please support this project so I can buy it for myself for Christmas 🥹🥹🧪

Atoms are binary. They are either intended to be hydrogen or helium. We can't just scrap this worldview just because of a handful of exceptions

I was riding my bike by a river today and felt that the wind was stronger the closer I was to the river.

Do rivers interact with wind?? Like, will a river with stronger current create stronger winds?

Climate science friends, feed my curiosity! @syiwang.bsky.social @anthonymeza.bsky.social

What were your favorite parts of your communities when you were in school?

I'll start! I loved loved loved being surrounded by people who I viewed as WAY more talented and smart than how I viewed myself. It drove me to better myself.

Do people walk on the other side of the sidewalk in other countries? eg. in the US I walk on the right side because that'd the side of the road I'm used to driving on.

Does it go the same elsewhere??

I had a cool moment at the coffee shop in Woods Hole yesterday morning.

I was chatting with the barista about being on my way to my roommate's PhD defense. I got my coffee and stepped aside. A minute later, I overheard another man chatting with her about being on his way out to "the boat"...

Resharing for the science feed now that I'm added! Super excited to be here, and looking forward to conversations about fusion energy's role in the energy transition movement 🧪

THAT'S MY ROOMMATE DEFENDING HIS PhD!!!!! Infinite congratulations Dr. Shouyi Wang @syiwang.bsky.social, you are one of the smartest, most kind, genuine, and wise human beings I know. I am proud to call you my friend.

@whoi.bsky.social you've produced an amazing scientist here 🥳🥳

Good morning bluesky!!! It's an hour until my roommate's PhD defense (wish him luck!! 🤞) and I'm drinking one of the best iced mochas I'd ever had. A beautiful day awaits!

Fantastic conversation about commercializing climate tech, and how to do so faster/in a more structured way. I've been thinking a ton about this kind of thing recently, reading this transcript is like water 😍

There are quite a lot of reasons to be concerned about genAI that don’t get as much mention.

This is a list of just a few that we've listed in our @aimod.social docs.

New monster factory just dropped and I'm going to start watching it while my gf is in the shower instead of waiting for her to finish. Let's see how this plays out
