Carbine choke. Travel Tips

Tourist tips

Node "carbine choke" it is used to fix the rope on the terrain, in situations involving the subsequent pulling of the rope.

A figure-eight knot is knitted at the working end of the rope. It has a carabiner attached to it. The working end, together with the carabiner, is wrapped around the tree (protrusion of the relief) and the carabiner is fastened into the root end (Fig. 28). When the root end is loaded, the knot is tightened.

Fig. 28

If you pull the carabiner with the help of an auxiliary rope, releasing the loaded end, then the carabiner will begin to move along the cargo rope, and the cargo rope itself, following the carabiner, will be pulled.

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 ... >>

Vaccine against disinformation 26.08.2022

A team of psychologists from the Universities of Cambridge and Bristol created 90-second videos to explain to users online manipulation techniques such as scapegoating and deliberate incoherence.

The scientific study consists of seven experiments involving almost 30 people and shows that even just one viewing of an instructional video increases awareness of misinformation.

There were 6464 participants in the six initial experiments (the sixth was conducted a year after the first five to allow past results to be tested). Participant data collection was comprehensive, from basic information - gender, age, education, political affiliations - to conspiracy thinking, news and social media checks, and more.

Lead author Dr John Ruzenbeek of SDML Cambridge explains: "The effect of the inoculation was the same for liberals and conservatives. It worked for people with different levels of education and different personality types. It's such a general educational inoculation against misinformation."

"Malicious disinformation takes many forms, but manipulative tactics and narratives are often repeated and therefore predictable," says Beth Goldberg, co-author and head of research and development at Google Jigsaw. "We've shown that a pre-emptive video clip can reach millions of people online, possibly before malicious narratives take root in their minds."
