It sort of depends on what you define as successful. These people involved in the show certainly aren't making a ton of money.
I see where your going but I don't think this show is the right example.
Can someone explain what exactly might qualify a material to be in a new state of matter? What I'm wondering is if they are just trying to attract attention by making wild claims, or if this really is just some new state of matter.
Speaking of which, is there a limit to the number of states that we know matter can exist in?
The author of that article actually mentioned that we have been able to make green lasers, but that they are not efficient enough to be used. This true green diode really makes laser projection screens inevitable because it can become just as efficient as our red and blue colored lasers.
I have pre-ordered games before while they were still being closed beta tested. It seems to me that what he described was a form of pre-ordering.
What won't happen is people pre-ordering games that are purely ideas. If you want investors to put something into your game, it needs to be impressive and exciting.
The problem with speeding up is that you eventually have to slow down, and slowing down takes plenty of energy and time too.
Also, when building up to this insanely fast speed, what are they planning to do if some random debris gets in their path?

Maybe for one developer this is interesting, but compared to real products this just isn't that impressive.
The sugar would really screw with the electrical resistance junk inside the keyboard. I'll need extra large plastic bags to protect it.
Um sorry but engineers that graduate with a degree aren't playing catch-up with engineers that jump right in after high school.

The guy wants to make money, and you suggest making it open source? Doesn't open source mean letting anyone have access to it for free?
