Origin:

Words by Eduard Bernstein (1850-1932), leader of the Second International and the right wing of the German Social Democracy, who is often referred to in Lenin's articles as "revisionist", "opportunist" and "reformist". E. Bernstein revised ("revised") the theory of K. Marx and began to oppose the ideas of "class struggle", "dictatorship of the proletariat" and "the inevitability of a socialist revolution" led by the working class. E. Bernstein saw the main task of the labor movement in the struggle for social reforms, improving the material situation of wage workers, protecting their rights ("the movement is everything"), but without any attempts to translate K. Marx's ideas about the "proletarian revolution" into reality ( "goal is nothing").

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 ... >>

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. ... >>

Interactive panel for classrooms with motion sensors 03.07.2012

Smart Technologies, a provider of collaboration solutions, announced the release of the Smart Board 8055i interactive flat panel for classrooms. The Smart Board 8055i interactive panel combines a 139,7 cm (55 inch) high-definition LCD display for shadow-free viewing with advanced multi-touch input technology.

The Smart Board 8055i is equipped with motion sensors, which automatically detects user movements to quickly turn on and off the device, thereby increasing energy savings and panel life, says Smart. The display body is made of high-strength materials, and the display surface is scratch-resistant and anti-reflective to reduce friction and glare.

Smart Board 8000 series interactive flat panels combine powerful collaboration with high image quality. DViT (Digital Vision Touch) technology, which is implemented in interactive panels 8055i, provides multi-touch capabilities, freedom of action when working with displayed content, recognition of input objects (finger, pen or object for erasing from the board) and finger movements on the touch surface (recognition the most common movements such as panning and flipping pages, as well as gestures for working with objects - zooming, dragging and rotating), which allows for collaborative learning.

With the Smart Board 8055i Interactive Flat Panel, users can simultaneously select objects, move them, or make notes on them (using Smart Ink). In the near future, Smart also plans to launch even larger Smart Board 8000 series interactive flat panels to offer educators a wider range of displays for teaching and collaboration.

Smart Board 8055i owners are offered Smart Notebook software for collaborative learning and access to the Smart Exchange website, where educators can connect with like-minded people and share their ideas. In addition, about 60 thousand different digital materials available for download have been published on this resource.
