Very cool! I wonder if/how this will affect/effect our hobby?

But now how are we going to tube roll? Will the debates over the sound of NOS tubes and tubes of today finally cease?
Interesting articles. I'll read and try to understand more later.

Wonder if the (sure to come) Russian and Chinese knock off versions will sound cool, shrill and grungy, like their tubes do vs the original UK and US NOS versions?

Cool. About time. Hey at least someone is thinking out of the box. Hope it works out. NOS tubes are getting rarer everyday. The prices as well are putting off purchases.
Hope to see this work out.

Now if only they could add it to something like Audioquest's dragonfly USB DAC!
That'd be awesome!
