The #Manhattan-Project was stolen in 1944 by #George-Koval a #Russian-spy working at #Oak-Ridge-National-Labs in Tn. So America what have you done to close the door since then? Nothing since you put krasnoff in charge of giving away all our national secrets. America is totally insecure

Warp Sciences launched with $215M to automate wet labs.

Ex-OpenAI's Kevin Weil runs it. Chemists wearing cameras and sensor gloves train robots to make compounds around the clock, reshoring work sent overseas.

3D-Printed Nuclear Pressure Vessels Cut Build Time

Two national labs just proved something nuclear builders have wanted for years: you can print a reactor pressure vessel instead of forging one. Oak Ridge National Laboratory and Idaho National Laboratory teamed up to build 3D-printed nuclear…
3D-Printed Nuclear Pressure Vessels Cut Build Time
Two national labs just proved something nuclear builders have wanted for years: you can print a reactor pressure vessel instead of forging one. Oak Ridge National Laboratory and Idaho National Laboratory teamed up to build 3D-printed nuclear pressure vessels using a technique called wire arc additive manufacturing, and the early results point toward faster, cheaper reactor construction. You can read the original announcement at…

Truly enjoyed learning about Dr. Heidi Hanson's research on Population Health Surveillance at Oak Ridge National Laboratory during the Spatial Utah Data Science (SUDS) Fall Keynote. Research at national labs is fascinating due to its scale, scope, and direct utility. Hits me every time!

Government funds account for more than *half* the R&D budget that US universities spend each year—in 2023, that was $60B out of $109B. The gov also does a lot of its own research at national labs like Oak Ridge & Los Alamos and agencies like NOAA and DoD.

What are the returns on that investment? 3/

If Iran bombed, say Oak Ridge National Labs, I'm pretty confident that Spray Tan would be online yelling "This is an ACT of WAR, thank you for your attraction to this matter"

So yeah, it's a provocation

My grandfather was a nuclear health physicist at Oak Ridge National Labs in the 1950s. Ironically he died of radiation-related cancer in 1955

I recently found this document from ORNL dated Jan 1954 that has a crayon doodle by my dad on it, less than a year before my grandfather died. My dad was 7

ORNL’s CONNEQT Transforms Nonequilibrium Quantum Research
Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) launches a groundbreaking four-year research collaboration. This initiative transforms how scientists understand nonequilibrium quantum materials. Experts from national labs and universities join forces. They harness high-performance computing (HPC) and exascale supercomputers. Together, they explore quantum systems far from equilibrium. The program, called Controlled Numerics for Emergent Transients in Nonequilibrium Quantum Matter (CONNEQT), tackles major barriers. Scientists struggle to model and predict dynamic behaviors in quantum materials under real-world conditions.

First thing was building data. I had already pulled the Oak Ridge National Labs dataset into Wherobots courtesy of the code from Mark Litwintschik (www.linkedin.com/in/marklitwi...) moving it from Geodatabase files for each state to Geoparquet files loaded into AWS S3. www.ornl.gov/project/geos...

I worked with the man who ran oak ridge during the height of the cold war. They called him Mr Plutonium.

We have some staggering intellect working at our national labs. Since most of it is very highly classified, no one knows what they do. Most have at least 2 PhDs in hard sciences. Amazing people

When Oak Ridge National Labs built the stonesoup computer they used 133 totally donated 486 PCs, Pentiums and DEC Alphas in what's called a massively parallel Beowulf cluster running free Linux, basically junk computers and 10 Mb network cards but it hit over a gigaflop in the 1990s.
