border situation

Karl Jaspers

Phraseologism: border situation.

Meaning: About a difficult psychological moment - the choice between different decisions, states, good and evil.

Origin: From the book "Psychology of Worldview" by the German philosopher Karl Jaspers (1883-1969). The philosopher understands by this term that period in the life of a person (as well as the state, society), when he creates some values ​​(or joins them) and at the same time destroys, debunks others. For example, in Russia in the early 90s. XNUMXth century familiarization with the values ​​of Western civilization (that is, what former Soviet people understood by them) was accompanied by destruction, ridicule of the values ​​of the Soviet era. That is, the country was going through a borderline, according to Jaspers, situation.

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. ... >>

Random news from the Archive Silicon fibers are 15 times stronger than steel 16.01.2013 Scientists from the Optoelectronics Research Center have developed a technology to create silicon nanofibers 15 times stronger than steel. At the same time, they can be made very long - theoretically up to thousands of kilometers. The new technology is already of interest to many companies around the world, primarily in the aviation and shipbuilding industries, where there is a need for lightweight and durable composites. Nanofibers attract attention with their extreme strength. Material properties at the nanoscale are very different from macroscopic samples - some crystalline materials in the form of nanofibers show tensile strengths in excess of 10 GPa. So far, it has been possible to fabricate crystalline nanofibers only a few millimeters long. Longer fibers have many defects that reduce their strength. Scientists from the Optoelectronics Research Center turned their attention to silicon dioxide nanofibers, the strength of which is less dependent on single defects. In fact, this is ordinary fiberglass, only made at the nanolevel, which made it possible to dramatically increase their strength. Experiments have shown that silicon dioxide nanofibers are 15 times stronger than high-strength steel and 10 times stronger than ordinary fiberglass fibers. In the future, this will reduce the weight of composite materials while maintaining their strength. Interestingly, the new nanofibers only become stronger as the diameter decreases. It should also be noted that the raw materials for their manufacture are silicon and oxygen, which are very common elements of the earth's crust. In addition, silicon dioxide nanofibers can be produced by the ton, just like conventional optical fiber, which is widely used in communication technologies today. A new type of fiber could change the future of composite materials: nanofibers could make planes, helicopters, boats, and so on stronger and lighter.
