What do bulls and bears do on the stock exchange?

"Bulls" (optimists) are those who play on the stock exchange to increase the price of securities. Anticipating an increase in the rate, "bulls" buy up securities in advance, the rate of which should rise, in order to sell them profitably later. The term "bulls" is associated with the fact that they raise prices, take them "on the horns".

"Bears" (pessimists) - those who are interested in lowering the rate. They short-sell commodities they don't have in stock at the price fixed at the time of the trade, planning to buy them before the trade is due at a lower price and thus make a profit in the form of a price difference. "Bears" "overwhelm" prices, lowering them.

How did ancient Rome forget about the atrocities of criminals?

In ancient Rome, a special posthumous punishment was applied to state criminals - the curse of memory. Any material evidence of the existence of a criminal - statues, wall and tomb inscriptions, references in laws and annals - were to be destroyed in order to erase the memory of the deceased. All members of the criminal's family could also be destroyed.

Machine for thinning flowers in gardens 02.05.2024

In modern agriculture, technological progress is developing aimed at increasing the efficiency of plant care processes. The innovative Florix flower thinning machine was presented in Italy, designed to optimize the harvesting stage. This tool is equipped with mobile arms, allowing it to be easily adapted to the needs of the garden. The operator can adjust the speed of the thin wires by controlling them from the tractor cab using a joystick. This approach significantly increases the efficiency of the flower thinning process, providing the possibility of individual adjustment to the specific conditions of the garden, as well as the variety and type of fruit grown in it. After testing the Florix machine for two years on various types of fruit, the results were very encouraging. Farmers such as Filiberto Montanari, who has used a Florix machine for several years, have reported a significant reduction in the time and labor required to thin flowers. ... >>

Advanced Infrared Microscope 02.05.2024

Microscopes play an important role in scientific research, allowing scientists to delve into structures and processes invisible to the eye. However, various microscopy methods have their limitations, and among them was the limitation of resolution when using the infrared range. But the latest achievements of Japanese researchers from the University of Tokyo open up new prospects for studying the microworld. Scientists from the University of Tokyo have unveiled a new microscope that will revolutionize the capabilities of infrared microscopy. This advanced instrument allows you to see the internal structures of living bacteria with amazing clarity on the nanometer scale. Typically, mid-infrared microscopes are limited by low resolution, but the latest development from Japanese researchers overcomes these limitations. According to scientists, the developed microscope allows creating images with a resolution of up to 120 nanometers, which is 30 times higher than the resolution of traditional microscopes. ... >>

Air trap for insects 01.05.2024

Agriculture is one of the key sectors of the economy, and pest control is an integral part of this process. A team of scientists from the Indian Council of Agricultural Research-Central Potato Research Institute (ICAR-CPRI), Shimla, has come up with an innovative solution to this problem - a wind-powered insect air trap. This device addresses the shortcomings of traditional pest control methods by providing real-time insect population data. The trap is powered entirely by wind energy, making it an environmentally friendly solution that requires no power. Its unique design allows monitoring of both harmful and beneficial insects, providing a complete overview of the population in any agricultural area. “By assessing target pests at the right time, we can take necessary measures to control both pests and diseases,” says Kapil ... >>

New unique type of magnet 15.02.2019

Chemical engineering specialists from New York University, USA, demonstrated their new, unusual design of a unique type of magnet, discovered not so long ago during a parallel study of the properties of certain types of uranium and antimony. Specialists have identified a new type of magnet as a "sweatshirt magnet", naming it so because this type of magnet has the unique ability to change its magnetic properties, switching from a magnetized state to a demagnetized state. It is worth noting that the discovery of this new type of magnet is of paramount importance for improving the quality and reliability of modern hard drives.

In principle, the same applies to any other recording equipment. The very discovery of a new magnet was associated with the study of some configurations of antimony and uranium - then scientists were able to identify the prototype Usb2 magnet, in which electrons were formed not in the standard way, as is usually the case in magnets, but through a kind of layering and transposition. This allows the new Usb2 magnet to simultaneously demonstrate the properties of a charged and discharged magnet, depending on what the user specifically needs.

Connecting with each other, the electrons in the presented magnet form something like a disparate magnetic field, in which switching is controlled using standard flip-flops - in this respect, control is carried out in traditional and easy ways.

This type of magnet-sweatshirt will certainly be an excellent tool for a significant technical improvement in current technologies and methods for creating hard drives and other storage equipment - in particular, making this equipment more reliable, resistant to various types of deformation and more durable, which is very, very important.
