Going to the people

Herzen A.I.

Phraseologism: Walking among the people.

Meaning: About personal participation to attract the broad masses to some idea.

Origin: Movement among Russian student youth in the 70s. 1861th century In those years, interest in higher education, especially in the natural sciences, grew significantly among the youth. But in the fall of 1874, the government raised tuition fees and banned student mutual aid funds. In response to this, student unrest took place at the universities, after which many were expelled and seemed to be thrown out of life - they could neither get a job in the public service (due to "unreliability"), nor study at other universities. At that time, A. I. Herzen wrote in his journal Kolokol: “But where can you go, young men from whom science was locked up? Tell you where? .." Those expelled from universities became rural teachers, paramedics, etc. In subsequent years, the number of "expelled science" grew, and "going to the people" became a mass phenomenon. Usually, “going to the people” is understood as its stage, which began in XNUMX, when revolutionary-minded youth went to the people with a very specific goal - to “re-educate the peasant”, “revolutionize the peasant consciousness”, raise the peasant to revolt, etc. The ideological leaders of this “walking” were the populist N. V. Tchaikovsky (Tchaikovsky), the revolutionary theorist P. L. Lavrov, the revolutionary anarchist M. A. Bakunin, who wrote: “Go to the people, there is your field, your life, your science. Learn from the people how to serve them and how best to conduct their business." In modern language it is used ironically.

Random phraseology:

Admiral hour.

Meaning:

Allegorically: the time (around noon, noon) when it's time to "drink and eat" (joking). Usually this expression is accompanied by a comment: "Gentlemen drink and eat" (jokingly).

Origin:

As the researcher of the Russian language and ethnographer I. M. Snegirev writes in his work "Russians in their proverbs", this expression resembles "the custom of the founder of the Russian fleet (Peter the Great. - Comp.) at eleven o'clock in the morning after work, drink vodka with his employees." It was a kind of "lunch break" for Peter. The expression "admiral's hour" came into wide use after, beginning in 1865 at exactly noon in St. Petersburg, they began to shoot from the cannon of the Admiralty, thereby indicating the exact time.

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. ... >>

The influence of temperature on physical processes 01.08.2022

Biologists led by José Ignacio Arroyo, a postdoctoral fellow at the Santa Fe Institute, have presented a diagram that demonstrates how temperature affects living organisms.

"The theory is fundamental," says SFI professor Pablo Marche, an ecologist at the Pontifical Catholic University, Santiago. "It can be applied to almost any process that is affected by temperature."

Previous attempts to generalize the effects of temperature on biology lacked the "big" implications of the new model, Marquet says.

Biologists and environmentalists often use the Arrhenius equation, for example, to describe the effect of temperature on the rate of chemical reactions. This approach explains a number of biological processes, but it does not take into account metabolism and growth rate.

Initially, Arroyo wanted to develop a general mathematical model to predict the behavior of an initial variable in a conventional biological system. However, he quickly realized that temperature was a kind of universal predictor and could guide the development of a new model.

He started with a chemical theory describing the kinetics of enzymes, but with a few additions and assumptions, he extended the model from the quantum molecular level to larger, macroscopic scales.

It is important that the model combines three elements that were absent in the previous theoretical experience.

First, like its counterpart in chemistry, it is based on first principles. Secondly, the model is based on one simple equation with a small number of parameters. (Most existing models require many assumptions and parameters). Thirdly, "it is universal in the sense that it can explain the patterns and behavior of any microorganism or any taxa in any environment," explains the scientist.

All temperature responses for various processes, taxa, and scales are reduced to the same functional.
