Thought spoken is a lie

Tyutchev F.I.

Phraseologism: A thought uttered is a lie.

Meaning: It is quoted as advice to be attentive to the word - far from every thought expressed is understood by another person adequately, correctly.

Origin: From the poem "Silentium!" ("Silentium!" - "Be quiet!", 1831) by Fyodor Ivanovich Tyutchev (1803-1873): "... How can the heart express itself? // How can another understand you? // Will he understand what you live for? // A thought uttered is a lie, // Exploding, disturb the keys - // Eat them - and be silent..." Written on the theme of the poem "Shut up" by the German poet, participant in the revolution of 1848 in Germany, L. Pfau (1821 -1894).

Random phraseology:

Hydra.

Meaning:

A hostile force, the fight against which is unusually difficult.

Origin:

In Greek mythology, the hydra is a multi-headed snake, in which, when one head was cut off, two new ones grew again, for the first time the myth about it was conveyed by the ancient Greek poet Hesiod (VIII-VII century BC) in Theogony. The image of the hydra was widely used in parliamentary speeches, brochures and newspapers in the era of the French Revolution of the 1931th century, the expressions "hydra of the aristocracy", "hydra of anarchy", etc. appeared (Paul Lafargue, Works, vol. III, M.-L. 252, p. XNUMX).

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. Startup Petgugu Global has unveiled a unique cat toilet that can automatically flush feces, keeping your home clean and fresh. 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. ... >>

Genetic analogue of the transistor 14.04.2013

The biological device was called a "transcriptor" after the name of the synthesis of RNA molecules based on DNA. It is this process that is the useful output of the genetic transistor. From several such devices, scientists managed to create a set of primitive logic gates: AND, AND-NOT, OR, and others.

Transcription in cells is carried out by enzymes of the class of DNA-dependent RNA polymerases. They sequentially move along the DNA chain, creating an RNA molecule on its basis. To control the work of the polymerase, scientists added terminator regions to the DNA chain, which cause the dissociation of the enzyme from DNA and the cessation of synthesis.

The control mechanism (analogous to the gate voltage in a field-effect transistor) is the possibility of changing the orientation of the terminators - to stop transcription, or to pass the polymerase. For switching, integrase enzymes are used, which are able to cut and paste sections of DNA.

Cascades of "transcriptors" allowed researchers to amplify the work of genes that cause cell fluorescence. It was by the luminosity of various cells that scientists in the process of experiments understood which of them correctly worked out the laid down logical scheme.

In the future, new biological devices could help build genetic computers. Various advances in the field of biological informatics have been previously reported. So, scientists were able to develop genetic relays, DNA memory modules and a way to encode messages using biological objects.
