They want to show their knowledge

Chekhov A.P.

Phraseologism: They want to show their knowledge.

Meaning: About the behavior of people seeking to demonstrate their education, erudition, erudition (jokingly ironic).

Origin: From the vaudeville "Wedding" (1890) by Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860-1904). The telegraph operator invited to the celebration begins to talk about the advantages of electric lighting, but the bride's father cuts him off, noting that this is "only a scam", and lighting needs "natural, not mental" fire. He is supported by the bride and groom, who summarizes: "They want to show their education and always talk about the incomprehensible."

Random phraseology:

Dust of ages.

Meaning:

Traces, signs of antiquity, signs, evidence of the past.

Origin:

From the tragedy "Boris Godunov" (1824-1825) by A. S. Pushkin (1799-1837). These words are spoken by the monk-chronicler Pimen, referring to another chronicler who will replace him: "And, having shaken off the dust of centuries from the charters, // He will rewrite the true stories."

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. ... >>

Spin memory STT-MRAM 23.01.2015

Spin memory STT-MRAM is free from such shortcomings of flash memory as relatively low reliability and durability, as well as relatively high power consumed when writing data. It is seen as a replacement for flash memory and DRAM

The Singapore agency A*STAR (Agency for Science, Technology and Research) represented by the DSI (Data Storage Institute) and Micron Technology announced the continuation of the joint development of random access magnetic memory, which uses the effect of spin torque transfer magnetic random access memory, STT-MRAM). The original three-year cooperation agreement, signed in autumn 2011, has been extended for another three years.

A*STAR DSI capabilities and the institute's expertise in STT-MRAM helped Micron set up a research center in Singapore. At the initial stage of cooperation, the institute also shared the experience necessary for the successful manufacture of STT-MRAM chips.

Based on the successful experience of working together, the partners intend to focus on developing a low-power switching mechanism and improving the performance of STT-MRAM in the new phase. The parties hope that the cooperation will bring the new memory technology closer to commercial applications.

Recall that STT-MRAM memory is free from such shortcomings of flash memory as relatively low reliability and durability, as well as relatively high power consumed when writing data. It has such a combination of qualities that it can be considered as a replacement for flash memory and random access memory (DRAM).

Micron and A*STAR are not the only ones doing STT-MRAM development. Two years ago, Toshiba specialists managed to create an STT-MRAM memory element with the smallest power consumption in the world, and in early October of this year, TDK showed prototypes of STT-MRAM memory chips with a density of 8 Mbps. In the spring of last year, IMEC and Globalfoundries announced the expansion of cooperation in the development of STT-MRAM memory.
