And gave him neither rest nor time

Krylov I.A.

Phraseologism: And he did not give him any rest or time.

Meaning: About someone's importunity (jokingly-ironic).

Origin: From the fable "Demyanov's Ear" (1813) by I. A. Krylov (1769-1844).

Random phraseology:

The Moor has done his job; the Moor may leave.

Meaning:

The phrase is a symbol of a consumer attitude towards a person who was first cynically used for any purpose, and then, instead of gratitude, turned away from him.

Origin:

From German: Der Mohr hat seine Schuldigkeit getan, der Mohr kann gehen. Sometimes these words are erroneously attributed to the Venetian Moor Othello, the protagonist of W. Shakespeare's play "Othello". In fact, this phrase is from the play (act. 3, yavl. 4) "The Fiesco Conspiracy in Genoa" (1783) by the German poet Johann Friedrich Schiller (1759-1805). Russian translation (1804) by Nikolai Ivanovich Gnedich (1784-1833). This phrase is uttered by one of the characters in the play - the Moor - after he helped Count Fiesco organize an uprising against Doge Doria, the tyrant of Genoa, and soon discovered that the conspirators no longer needed him, that they saw in him only a tool to achieve their goals. Schiller's play is based on real events in Genoa in 1547.

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 ... >>
