Foremen of the Spirit

Voznesensky A.A.

Phraseologism: Foremen of the spirit.

Meaning: Outstanding creative personalities, ascetics (jokingly-ironic).

Origin: The title of a poem by the Soviet poet Andrei Andreyevich Voznesensky (1933-2010). It served as the basis for the expression "foremen of perestroika" (1987), which belongs to the leader of the CPSU and the USSR, MS Gorbachev. Foreman - an abbreviation accepted in the construction environment, meaning "workman" (usually a lower-level manager).

Random phraseology:

Let the genie out of the bottle.

Meaning:

By their unreasonable actions, to initiate an uncontrollable and very dangerous process.

Origin:

From the collection of Arabic folk tales "A Thousand and One Nights". Once a poor fisherman fished out a copper jar from the sea, sealed with a lead seal of King Suleiman bin Daud, a famous magician and sage, "the only one who knew the secret and terrible name of Allah", saying which you can control the winds, birds and evil spirits - jinn. Once the king got angry with one of the genies and put him in a "bottle" - a jug, which the fisherman caught. Driven by curiosity, he opened the jar, and from there with a noise, in the form of a huge column of smoke, a genie escaped, punished by King Suleiman. Naturally, the fisherman could no longer drive the genie back into the "bottle".

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. ... >>

Wireless BLE sensor STEVAL-BCN002V1B 17.12.2019

The new STEVAL-BCN002V1B Bluetooth Low Energy Sensor Node Wireless Development Kit includes the STEVAL-BCN002V1 multi-sensor board based on the BlueNRG-2 SoC chip acting as the control processor. This sensor board is equipped with an accelerometer, a gyroscope, a magnetometer, a pressure, humidity and temperature sensor, a ToF distance meter and a MEMS microphone. Autonomous power supply is provided by the disk element CR2032.

The sensor board communicates with a Bluetooth LE-enabled smartphone running the ST BLE Sensor app, which can be downloaded free of charge from the Google Play and iTunes stores.

The STEVAL-BCN002V1D accessory board is used for programming and debugging the sensor. The accessory board is connected to the PC via USB.

The STEVAL-BCN002V1B kit with STEVAL-BCN002V1 sensor board and STEVAL-BCN002V1D programming board includes:

BlueNRG-2: Bluetooth Low Energy system-on-a-chip;
BALF-NRG-02D3: ultra-miniature balun and harmonic filter;
LSM6DSO: iNEMO 6DoF low power inertial module;
LIS2MDL: 3-axis magnetometer with digital output;
VL53L1X: ST FlightSense rangefinder (photon flight time);
MP34DT05TR-A: omnidirectional digital MEMS microphone;
LPS22HH: piezoresistive absolute pressure sensor (barometer);
HTS221: capacitive digital relative humidity and temperature sensor;
Cell holder CR2032 (battery not included).

To develop applications based on the STEVAL-BCN002V1B, the STSW-BLUETILE-DK software suite is available, which extends the STSW-BLUENRG1-DK software for BlueNRG-1 and BlueNRG-2 wireless microcontrollers by adding drivers for all sensors, a middleware library, and several BLE application examples.
