There’s a second form of magnetism?
apparently it’s one of those “technically correct but also obviously nonsense” things: there’s no different type of electromagnetism, but specific materials can be magnetic in different ways, dimagnetic/ferromagnetic/paramagnetic, and the stuff the article is about seems to be at least the fourth kind… urgh
Everyone in this thread:
Everybody gave them shit for admitting to not know how magnets work (in a song), and yet, 99% of the public don’t even know there’s three forms.
I bet you don’t know how to use the three shells
For anyone interested in what they could be used for, but without time to read the article,
On a nano level, everything we store inside our devices is the result of the coordinated action of electrons. If these materials could be improved, it could mean higher efficiency, more storage within the same size of material, and less loss when data is accessed.
Because
…in [this] paper, scientists show that they can tune these materials very precicely in order to create specific directions of magnetism.
While the traditional ferromagnets we use today are fine in many ways, they aren’t ideal, and can introduce a blurring between separated bits of data known as crosstalk.
Nano machines!? I wonder if this will allow smaller than 1nm chip manufacturing.
THE NANO MACHINES WILL ALLOW MORE MEMES

Kanye West pole?
Animal Magnetism
2025 we’re finding out animal magnetism was real all along, but it requires a certain concentration of microplastics to work
He has the kavorka!
The best kind!
Uh, don’t we already have three? Dia-, ferro- and paramagnetism?
and Antiferro-, Ferrimagnetism.
Magnets are the solution, just you wait
