What about ferromagnetic fluid? You can still spin it if you are aiming to push it 'centrifugally' into the features of the vacuum boundary, but you shouldn't lose a lot during the detachment.
For those wondering what this is about before jumping into the PDF. It is an article from the captain's perspective of a flight in 1977, where a Lockheed L-1011's left elevator jammed (corrosion) during take-off forcing the plane to pitch up.
The captain, Capt. Jack McMahan, was awarded the FAA's Distinguished Service Award for successfully landing the plane by using a thrust differential between the wing engines and tail engine to counteract the upward pitch, preventing a stall.
There's nothing wrong with over-insulating (although at a certain point it is no longer economical), but you need to ensure the house is ventilated to prevent mold.
You also need to ensure you choose the correct building materials, so they can ventilate themselves. Modern building science says there should be a continuous airtight wrap around a house with insulation either side. The interior insulation ventilates to the inside, and the exterior ventilates to the outside. What you don't want is multiple airtight layers as that could cause it to become moldy inside the layers.
Passivhaus houses will almost always have a heat-recovery ventilation system. These will bring in fresh air and take out stale air - like a bathroom fan. But they also exchange heat from the outgoing to income air in the process. Typically 80%+ of the heat is recovered (you can get systems that are 95% efficient). They run at a low speed so consume minimal electricity (typically under 100W for small houses) and don't provide a noticeable draft like air conditioning or forced-air heating. They have filters to prevent pollen and other contaminants from entering your house, so for allergy suffers they are a big plus.
I live in a cold climate in an apartment built in 2015, which is well insulated and has this system. Even though it has been below freezing (currently 8c) outside, we haven't yet needed to turn on our heating because of how well the building is insulated. We do actually have a typical vented bathroom fan, but everything else (kitchen hood and dryer) are unvented, so we keep all that heat inside.
Where did you learn about modern building best-practices? I just bought my first single-family home and am excited to slowly transform it into a comfortable-and-efficient modern building. But I'm finding it a little difficult to penetrate this new-to-me space and would love to find some more-complete resources.
My random web-crawling has certainly been moderately productive, but it's slow and I can't help but feel that I'm not being adequately exposed to a reasonable breadth of topics.
That is too postmodern for my tastes. I would strongly argue that one can speak without making false statements, and would be very much in favor of some sort of fact-checking badge on social media. It would be difficult, but I really believe it would be worth it.
So far pretty much every fact checking organization, regardless of original intent, eventually succumbs to the temptation to bend their fact checking to their ideological preference.
There is no social media company that has the credibility to even be taken seriously as a impartial arbiter of fact.
Yet everyone does not like equally, not by a longshot. We have sites like snopes and polifact. Maybe not perfect, but better than postmodern nonsense like "there is no truth".
Or, you know, the truth leans heavily on one side, considering that there's not a single one even remotely relevant fact checking organization on the other one.
I'm not sure if the US is the same as the UK, but here there are tax incentives [1] to classify, or interpret as much engineering time as possible as R&D.
What is your proposal for an alternative to Facebook, Twitter, etc? Thousands of small independently-owned networks? How would that work when you need to send data from/to arbitrary locations in the entire US/world?
