Samuel Butler. The most famous aphorisms

God isn't as bad as he's made out to be, but he's not as good either.
Faith, like everything in nature, follows the path of least resistance.
With faith you can do little, but without faith you can do nothing.
A couple in love is like sunrise or sunset: an everyday phenomenon, but rarely observed.
All peoples have a secret sympathy for their evil spirits.
All philosophies are ultimately absurd, but some are more absurd than others.
Genius and virtue are like diamonds: they look best in simple settings.
They say that money is the root of all evil. The same can be said about lack of money.
Fools invent fashion, and smart ones are forced to follow it.
Life is a weariness growing with every step.
Life is the art of deriving comforting results from disappointing premises.
To live is like to love: all reasonable arguments are against, and all healthy instincts are for.
Art is like nature. If you don't let it in the door, it will enter the window.
Every fool can tell the truth, but you need to have something in your head to tell a good lie.
Brevity is very good if we are understood or if we are not understood.
A chicken is just a means by which an egg produces another egg.
To lie is to acknowledge the superiority of the person to whom you are lying.
Deprivation is a clumsy attempt to achieve the same thing that is much more easily achieved by wealth.
The best speaker is the one who is able to say as little as possible with as many words as possible.
Any human creation, be it literature, music or painting, is always a self-portrait.
The last fool can paint a picture, but only the smart one can sell it.
Our world is like Noah's Ark: a handful of people and a lot of cattle.
Our spontaneity is only a consequence of ignorance of God's providence.
The progress of mankind is based on the desire of each person to live beyond their means.
Speech is the geometric mean between thought and action.
The oldest book is a burning novelty for those who have not yet read it.
Conscience is exceptionally well educated and soon ceases to appeal to those who do not want to listen to it.
To die means to stop dying.
I'm perfectly fine with lies. It's just the inaccuracies that annoy me.

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 ... >>

Mini air conditioner Sony Reon Pocket 5 09.05.2024

Summer is a time for relaxation and travel, but often the heat can turn this time into an unbearable torment.

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 ... >>

ERхххххH - FANSO lithium batteries 11.06.2021

FANSO has upgraded its production facilities and installed a new automated line for the production of cylindrical lithium-thionyl chloride (Li-SOCl2) batteries with a bobbin design. At the moment, all supplied batteries of this type ERxxxxxH are manufactured on a new line.

Due to the minimal human involvement in the technological process, new products are characterized by increased stability and repeatability of parameters both in the delivery batch itself and from batch to batch. This type of battery has the highest specific energy density and is characterized by the highest capacity among existing lithium batteries.

The ERxxxxxH battery type is designed for long-term operation of devices that consume low current (10-15 years with appropriate power consumption, taking into account the necessary factors). Due to the extremely low self-discharge, the batteries of this electro-chemical system have a long shelf life (up to 10 years). By the way, a similar fully automated line was already launched over a year ago for the production of the very popular CR123A/SN manganese dioxide battery.

Lithium-thionyl chloride batteries are widely used in fire alarm sensors, resource metering devices, remote control and telemetry devices, and other similar applications. However, it should be taken into account that batteries of the lithium-thionyl chloride system of any manufacturer have a passivation effect.
