And he has no friend, at least many friends

Benediktov V.G.

Phraseologism: And he has no friend, at least many friends.

Meaning: Regret for someone's loneliness.

Origin: From the poem "The Singer" by Vladimir Grigorievich Benediktov (1807-1873). The author speaks of a romantic poet, unrecognized and misunderstood by his contemporaries: "... Will he then want to extend friendship // The sufferer's celibate hand - // On whose open chest will he fall? // Native to the whole world in sound, // He drowns in sad an excess of connections, // And he has no friend, even though he has many friends..."

Random phraseology:

Life is short, art is eternal.

Meaning:

The artist, the creator dies, but the fruits of his hands, the creations of his spirit, mind, art live forever, and thus they keep the memory (remind) of the person who created them, the master lives in his creations.

Origin:

From Latin: Vita brevis, ars longa. From a well-known saying that belongs to the great ancient Greek thinker, naturalist, great physician, founder of modern medical ethics, Hippocrates (460-370 BC). Speaking of "art", he meant not artistic creativity, but the art of healing. And the meaning of this comparison lies in the fact that the art of healing is so complex, it requires so much knowledge that even a whole human life is not enough to comprehend them. “Hence,” explained the Roman Stoic philosopher Lucius Annei Seneca in his essay “On the Brevity of Life,” the famous exclamation of the greatest of physicians that life is short and art is long.” In the original, the thought of Hippocrates sounds like this: Life is short, the path of art is long (another translation: science is immense), chance is fleeting, experience is deceptive, judgment is difficult. Therefore, not only the doctor himself should use everything that is necessary, but also the patient, and those around him, and all external circumstances should contribute to the doctor in his activity. The expression became popular after I. W. Goethe repeated it in his tragedy "Faust" in this form: "Art is durable, but our life is short."

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. ... >>

New battery cell is 7 times denser than lithium-ion cells 02.08.2014

A team of scientists from the University of Tokyo, working in collaboration with specialists from Nippon Shokubai, has succeeded in creating a new battery cell that is superior to existing ones.

The operation of the new cell is based on a redox reaction between oxide ions and peroxide ions at the positive electrode. The project participants were able to confirm in practice the performance of the new system, showing that peroxides are formed and destroyed in the process of charging and discharging on a positive electrode formed from the crystal structure of lithium oxide with the addition of cobalt.

The new cell is said to have seven times the energy density of existing lithium-ion battery cells. The development will increase the capacity of batteries, reduce their cost and improve safety. The new technology is expected to be used in next-generation electric vehicle batteries and stationary batteries.

The theoretical specific capacity is 897 mAh per 1 g of the active substance of the electrode, the cell voltage is 2,87 V, and the energy density is 2570 Wh/kg.

So far, it has been practically possible to obtain an energy density of 370 Wh/kg. For comparison, currently produced batteries have an energy density of about 50-55 Wh/kg. Note that lithium-air batteries have a maximum theoretical energy density of 3460 Wh, but the new batteries are safer and more practical because they have a sealed structure.

It remains to add that the operation of new batteries is not associated with the release of oxygen or carbon dioxide, which makes them environmentally attractive.
