Discussion on Nano Thermite Discovery
Okay.
Somebody found nano thermite, whatever the hell that is.
And-
They,
they found na-- Did you hear him? He said they found nano thermite,
whatever the
hell that is.
That's a factoid.
Well, well, no-
Or as we would say in Spanish, facticito.
Uh.
It's a...
Thermite is a pyrotechnic compound, um, primarily made
of metal powder, usually aluminum and metal oxide, most commonly
iron oxide. And then, uh, but I guess he's baffled, uh, 'cause
you put the word nano in front of it.
Mm.
And so he's like, "What the, what the, whatever the hell that is.
I don't know."
"I'm, I'm just the world's leading linguist.
Uh, I got, I don't know what the fuck."
Well, doesn't just nano mean small?
It's a nanocito for the facticito.
Nano, it means thermite on a micron scale.
It's got much higher reaction, and it burns, uh, at a much higher...
So that's a... It's just, I, I'm a C student, Noam, and I know what-
...
nano thermite means. But it's adorable
that you pretend to not know whatever the
hell that means.
God forbid you spend two seconds looking it up.
What is, hey, what is this nano thermite? Ah, you don't wanna look it up.
That'd be doing your own research.
