What did Dante Alighieri call his greatest work?

The pinnacle of creativity of the great Italian poet Dante Alighieri (1265-1321) is the poem, now known to us under the name "Divine Comedy".

Dante himself, however, called his work much more modest - "Comedy", and the author's fans called the poem "Divine" after more than three centuries.

Random interesting fact from the Great Encyclopedia:

Why did English women at the end of the 18th century give false reports that they were victims of a maniac?

In 1788, there were reports that a criminal was operating in London, who stabbed women with a knife or pin - usually in the buttocks - and then disappeared. Over 50 victims were reported on assassination attempts in two years, but no one knows how many there actually were. The fact is that the "London Monster" attacked mainly beautiful ladies, so many women, out of a desire for greater fame and public compassion, falsified the fact of the attack, injuring themselves. In the end, a certain Rinwick Williams was caught and convicted, although historians doubt his involvement in the crimes described, and some even question the existence of a "monster", speaking of mass hysteria from scratch.

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. ... >>

Nanotube heatsinks 02.02.2014

Scientists were able to increase the cooling efficiency of microprocessors by six times using carbon nanotube heat sinks.

To create strong covalent bonds between the cooled surface (experiments were carried out with aluminum, silicon, gold and copper) and grown nanotubes, physicists used an interlayer of organic molecules of aminopropyl trialkoxysilane and cysteamine.

Mechanical adhesion of heatsinks to metal surfaces proved to be sufficient for further growth of nanotubes to improve heat dissipation. Carbon nanotubes were chosen for cooling chips because their thermal conductivity is better than that of diamonds, the most thermally conductive natural mineral.

At the same time, the authors of the work noted that, despite the general improvement in heat transfer, most of the grown nanotubes were not fixed directly on the metal. The researchers plan to continue experiments to improve the contact density.

Heat dissipation plays a critical role in the operation of integrated circuits, as their processing power decreases with increasing temperature. The problem of overheating is further exacerbated by the growing density of transistors in modern microprocessors, which are cooled using both passive (metal heatsinks) and active (coolers and fluid systems) methods.
