Haven't seen much discussion on the recent room-temperature superconductivity claims here on Mastodon (am I following the wrong people?), but before the hype hits you, here is the current state of affairs:
* Two experimental attempts to replicate the result have found nothing (https://t.co/D1gmAEOvzx, https://t.co/u5qIEv7aB7)
* One numerical result shows that the suggested material should have flat eletron bands, which are consistent with (but do not prove) superconductivity (https://t.co/2m0ojMOTLr).
Until we have independent experimental replication, any hype is premature.
