A researcher committed misconduct while trying to prove there's an exception to the laws of physics?!? I'm shocked! Shocked, I say!

Well, not that shocked. Not even surprised. In fact, it's just another Thursday in that department.

Seems every claim of "warm" super-conduction ends up being retracted, redacted and ridiculed. I get that it's a goal, but it seems to be a unicorn most of the time.

While I'm always skeptical of room-temperature superconductor claims, I'm pretty sure it's not an exception to the laws of physics as we know it.

It's similar to how when super conductors were first discovered it seemed implausible but it turns out they're perfectly possible!
