Robert Louis Stevenson. The most famous aphorisms

  • We all know what parliament is, and we are all ashamed of it.
  • Do you think dogs don't go to heaven? I assure you they will be there before any of us.
  • It is much better to let yourself be ruined by a frivolous nephew than to be fed by a peevish uncle.
  • Let's agree to disagree.
  • Drama is the poetry of behaviour, the novel of adventure is the poetry of circumstance.
  • If people only married when they fell in love, most people would die celibate.
  • If you want to know the flaws of a person, go to those who love him. Maybe they won't tell you, but they certainly know.
  • If you call a spade a spade, then the most integral, significant and noble roles in the Theater of Life are performed by amateur actors and cause only a lazy yawn in the viewer.
  • Marriage is an affection recognized by the police.
  • It is legitimate to pray to God that he will not let us fall into temptation, but it is illegal to avoid those temptations that visit us.
  • Knowing what you need, instead of the slurred "amen" that you say to the one to whom the world points you, is to keep your soul alive.
  • As we go through life, we suddenly find that the ice under our feet is getting thinner and thinner, and we see how our peers fall under it around us and behind us.
  • Books may be good in their own way, but they are nonetheless a very bloodless substitute for life.
  • When you get married, you can do nothing for yourself - not even suicide.
  • The best things are nearby: breath in the nostrils, light in the eyes, flowers under the feet, cares in the hands, the road in front of you. Having this, one does not need to scoop up a handful of stars. Just do what life gives you.
  • In every segment of our lives, leaving someone means being a winner, forgetting someone means being happy.
  • There is no obligation more neglected than the obligation to be happy.
  • There are no foreign countries. There is only a traveler who is a stranger there.
  • Monuments are erected to everything that is least memorable.
  • Let any man speak long enough and he will have followers.
  • Politics is perhaps the only profession for which no preparation is needed.
  • Simple deeds and simple bread are the best that can be.
  • The cruelest lies are often told silently.
  • The darkest era is today.
  • Saints are sinners who did not stop there.
  • The difficulty of literature is not to write, but to write what you think.
  • Old and young, we all went out on our last cruise.
  • There is so much good in our bad side and so much bad in our good side that everything else that we have is not even worth talking about.
  • One who lives in a glass house should not throw stones at others.
  • The success of a work depends not only on who wrote it, but also (to no lesser extent) on the innate instinct of the one who read it.
  • The human body is a house with many windows. We all sit in front of them, show ourselves and ask those passing by to come into the house and love us.

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 ... >>

Breath betrays the criminal 09.06.2002

English criminalists have developed a method for detecting DNA molecules that any of us release with microscopic skin particles, hairs and even droplets of saliva that fly apart when coughing and just breathing. A criminal can wear rubber gloves to avoid leaving fingerprints, but he is unlikely to be able to breathe, drop skin flakes, or commit crimes in an airtight spacesuit.

The method has already been tested by the London police when investigating computer thefts. As a result, the detection of such crimes increased by 20 percent.
