The moral of this story is

Mikhalkov S.V.

Phraseologism: The moral of this fable is as follows.

Meaning: Quoted to clarify the meaning of what was said.

Origin: The primary source is the fable "The Lion and the Label" by the poet Sergei Vladimirovich Mikhalkov, which ends like this: "The moral of the fable is this: // Another label is stronger than the Lion!"

Random phraseology:

The stove pot is dearer to you, you cook your own food in it.

Meaning:

About a lack of understanding of the true value of culture in general and artistic creativity in particular, about narrow pragmatism as a consequence of human limitations and underdevelopment (ironic, contemptuous, disapproving).

Origin:

From the poem "The Poet and the Crowd" (1829) by A. S. Pushkin (1799-1837). Its first publication took place under the title "Mobile". The mob (crowd) reproaches the poet that although his song is free like the wind, "but like the wind it is fruitless." And she asks the creator: "What use is it to us?" The poet replies: “Everything would be good for you - by weight // You appreciate the Belvedere idol. // You don’t see any benefit, you don’t see any benefit in it. // But this marble is a god!, so what? // The stove pot is dearer to you, / / You cook your own food in it." Later, this Pushkin image is used by N. A. Nekrasov in his poem "Railway" (1865), where the aristocratic general ironically inquires from the lyrical hero: "Or is Apollo Belvedere // Worse than an oven pot for you?"

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 ... >>
