Never B4 heard of,nor read about this concept called,"tokamak".When I found it pop up,I can honestly say I suspected it wasn't just a typo--but only b/c this book has few.When I came across it again in next page,I was sure & went 2 look it up (it's a Russian-invented fusion reactor chamber type).Really surprised that I hadn't come across this term B4.As I've been hearing a lot, lately:"I've learnt something today!"

Low progress speed notwithstanding,I really enjoy this & find it insightful.Even so, encountered its perhaps first big failure 2satisfy my curiosity: Universal Translator. UT's magical lip sync workings always vexed me.Absolutely hadn't expected the book 2properly address it(b/c no explanation I ever tried--hard!--2think of,was remotely satisfactory),but nevertheless could hope 4it.Great work @other areas,after all.

Time for some brief updates. 230606: reached the top of p92 in what has, for several years now, been my go-to emergency reading (i.e., when all other reading material availabilities have failed me).
