Niccolo Machiavelli. The most famous aphorisms

States are acquired either by one's own or someone else's weapons, or by the grace of fate, or by valor.
The sovereign is not free to choose his people, but is free to choose to know, for his right is to punish and pardon, bring closer and disgrace.
Deeds that are objectionable to subjects, sovereigns should assign to others, and pleasing to perform themselves.
A reprehensible mistake is made by those who do not take into account their capabilities and strive for conquest at any cost.
Friendship, which is given for money, and not acquired by the greatness and nobility of the soul, can be bought, but cannot be kept.
Anyone who thinks that new blessings can make the great ones of this world forget about old grievances is mistaken.
When necessity compels action, insolence turns into prudence, and courageous souls, undertaking something great, never consider danger.
Those who relied less on the mercy of fate held on to power longer.
People are the enemies of any embarrassing enterprise.
People are so simple-minded and so preoccupied with immediate needs that a deceiver will always find someone who will allow himself to be deceived.
Although the people, according to Tullius, are ignorant, they are able to perceive the truth and easily yield when a trustworthy person tells them the truth.
There is no business that would be more difficult to set up, more dangerous to conduct, and more doubtful of success than replacing the old order with a new one.
The ruler’s mind is first judged by the kind of people he brings to himself.
One must first come to terms with the fact that every decision is doubtful, for it is in the order of things that, having avoided one trouble, one finds oneself in another.
The members of the body obey the head, and not vice versa.

The existence of an entropy rule for quantum entanglement has been proven 09.05.2024

Quantum mechanics continues to amaze us with its mysterious phenomena and unexpected discoveries. Recently, Bartosz Regula from the RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing and Ludovico Lamy from the University of Amsterdam presented a new discovery that concerns quantum entanglement and its relation to entropy. Quantum entanglement plays an important role in modern quantum information science and technology. However, the complexity of its structure makes understanding and managing it challenging. Regulus and Lamy's discovery shows that quantum entanglement follows an entropy rule similar to that for classical systems. This discovery opens new perspectives in the field of quantum information science and technology, deepening our understanding of quantum entanglement and its connection to thermodynamics. The results of the study indicate the possibility of reversibility of entanglement transformations, which could greatly simplify their use in various quantum technologies. Opening a new rule ... >>

Energy from space for Starship 08.05.2024

Producing solar energy in space is becoming more feasible with the advent of new technologies and the development of space programs. The head of the startup Virtus Solis shared his vision of using SpaceX's Starship to create orbital power plants capable of powering the Earth. Startup Virtus Solis has unveiled an ambitious project to create orbital power plants using SpaceX's Starship. This idea could significantly change the field of solar energy production, making it more accessible and cheaper. The core of the startup's plan is to reduce the cost of launching satellites into space using Starship. This technological breakthrough is expected to make solar energy production in space more competitive with traditional energy sources. Virtual Solis plans to build large photovoltaic panels in orbit, using Starship to deliver the necessary equipment. However, one of the key challenges ... >>

Optimists live longer 14.04.2020

Scientists from the Boston University School of Medicine conducted a study in which they found that the life expectancy of optimists is approximately 15% longer than that of other people.

Experts say that optimists are less likely to experience depression and respond more calmly to stressful situations in life. This allows them to maintain mental health and serves as a preventive measure for the development of dangerous diseases.

Scientists turned to people with a request to look at life positively and get rid of negative thoughts.
