Adding grapes to microwave setups doubles the magnetic field strength, opening doors for smaller, more efficient quantum sensors.

I got to try one of these surgery robots one time and it's to this day probably one of the coolest things I've been allowed to control.

Ah, no way, really? The da Vinci? That's badass. Closest I ever got was a 6-axis industrial Mitsubishi.

Yeah, it was a Da Vinci back around 2012 I want to say? It was at a robotics competition as an exhibit, I just happened to go past while it wasn't busy and got to spend 5 minutes manipulating a little toy they had set up. It felt incredibly futuristic with the 3D display and finger controllers.
