Whatever happens

Saltykov-Shchedrin M.E.

Phraseologism: Whatever happens.

Meaning: It is cited as an ironic commentary on the behavior of a timid, downtrodden, overly cautious person, as well as on the actions of a conformist person who blindly adheres to customs, traditions, and norms of behavior.

Origin: It is first encountered in "Modern Idyll" by Mikhail Evgrafovich Saltykov-Shchedrin (1826-1889), in which officials constantly repeat: "No matter how something comes of it!" But this expression became popular thanks to the story of Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860-1904) "The Man in the Case". The protagonist of this story, teacher Belikov, was an extremely cautious person: “For him, only circulars and newspaper articles were clear, in which something was forbidden ... In permission and permission, an element was always hidden for him, doubtful, something unsaid and vague When a drama club, or a reading room, or a tea room was allowed in the city, he shook his head and said quietly: "It is, of course, so-and-so, it's all wonderful, but whatever happens."

Artificial leather for touch emulation 15.04.2024

In a modern technology world where distance is becoming increasingly commonplace, maintaining connection and a sense of closeness is important. Recent developments in artificial skin by German scientists from Saarland University represent a new era in virtual interactions. German researchers from Saarland University have developed ultra-thin films that can transmit the sensation of touch over a distance. This cutting-edge technology provides new opportunities for virtual communication, especially for those who find themselves far from their loved ones. The ultra-thin films developed by the researchers, just 50 micrometers thick, can be integrated into textiles and worn like a second skin. These films act as sensors that recognize tactile signals from mom or dad, and as actuators that transmit these movements to the baby. Parents' touch to the fabric activates sensors that react to pressure and deform the ultra-thin film. This ... >>

Petgugu Global cat litter 15.04.2024

Taking care of pets can often be a challenge, especially when it comes to keeping your home clean. A new interesting solution from the Petgugu Global startup has been presented, which will make life easier for cat owners and help them keep their home perfectly clean and tidy.

This innovative device is equipped with various smart sensors that monitor your pet's toilet activity and activate to automatically clean after use. The device connects to the sewer system and ensures efficient waste removal without the need for intervention from the owner. Additionally, the toilet has a large flushable storage capacity, making it ideal for multi-cat households. The Petgugu cat litter bowl is designed for use with water-soluble litters and offers a range of additional ... >>

The attractiveness of caring men 14.04.2024

The stereotype that women prefer "bad boys" has long been widespread. However, recent research conducted by British scientists from Monash University offers a new perspective on this issue. They looked at how women responded to men's emotional responsibility and willingness to help others. The study's findings could change our understanding of what makes men attractive to women. A study conducted by scientists from Monash University leads to new findings about men's attractiveness to women. In the experiment, women were shown photographs of men with brief stories about their behavior in various situations, including their reaction to an encounter with a homeless person. Some of the men ignored the homeless man, while others helped him, such as buying him food. A study found that men who showed empathy and kindness were more attractive to women compared to men who showed empathy and kindness. ... >>

Random news from the Archive Portable camera that sees polarized light 11.07.2019 Scientists from the Harvard School of Engineering and Applied Sciences. John A. Paulson (SEAS) has developed a very compact portable camera capable of displaying the polarization of an object in a single image, according to the SEAS website. The miniature camera will find useful applications in remote sensing, in the study of atmospheric chemistry, and in machine vision. It can also be installed in self-driving cars. Polarization is a property of light in which oscillations of the electromagnetic field of a light wave propagate in only one direction. To illustrate this property, one can imagine a rope threaded through a narrow vertical slot in a fence. If you start to vibrate the rope from one side, on the other hand it will be able to pass only vertical vibrations, and, for example, horizontal vibrations, it will not miss at all. Polarized light is invisible to the human eye (but some species of shrimp and insects can see it), but it provides a lot of information about the objects it interacts with. Polarization can help with a XNUMXD reconstruction of an object, assess its depth, texture and shape, and distinguish artificial from natural objects, even if they have the same shape and color, said Paul Chevalier, SEAS researcher and one of the authors of the study. The polarization-sensitive cameras that are in use today have a big disadvantage: they are very bulky. In addition, they often rely on moving parts and are expensive, severely limiting their potential applications. The new camera, on the contrary, is quite small: only about two centimeters long, and is no more complicated than the camera on a smartphone. The researchers have developed a metasurface that uses an array of subwavelength nanoparticles to guide light based on its polarization. The light then forms four images, each showing a different aspect of polarization. By combining them, we get a complete snapshot of the polarization in each pixel. This technology could be integrated into a mobile phone or car camera in the future, allowing widespread use of polarized images and new applications.
