Does a USB drive get heavier as you store more files on it?

Nope. Paradoxically (and theoretically), the more you save on a flash drive, the lighter it gets.

USB drives use Flash memory, which means the the ones and zeros of the data are stored on transistors.

When you save data, a binary zero is set by charging the float gate of the transistor, and a binary one is set by removing the charge.

To charge it, we add electrons, and the mass of each electron is 0.00000000000000000000000000091 grams.

This means that an empty USB drive (which mostly holds zeros) weighs more than a full USB drive (which has ones and zeros). Add data, reduce the weight.

Application Results

Did you think we forgot about this? We totally didn't.

Thank you for the over 45 applications we received! This was roughly 40 more than we anticipated in receiving, and we could not be anymore thankful.

For the sake of self interest, we would like to anonymously record the results and present them here. Please click on the "read more" button below to view the data.

If you wish to skip to the point: Everyone who has applied has been hired, except for a particularly disturbing woman who shall not be publicly named. Welcome to the family, everyone else <3

Positions

According to the data: -17.4% were interested in being test subjects, which is good because we need a *lot* of those. -13% applied for Ecto Biologyst -10.9% applied for Court Jester (but there can only be One)

Rest of the data for this shall be shared at the end of the post. Remember that we did not collect emails- so the applicants are anonymous

In our "education" section, it appears that the vast majority of our applicants are college undergrad or higher (specifically Bachelor to Masters), which is great.

Apart of our diversity meter, '???' is way more than our human applicants which is. Mmm. Sure.

We have no reason to post this chart aside from the fact that we think its funny how much of the pie chart white takes up. Moving along-

Diversity win!! Majority of you are nonbinary!

When making this section of the application, we did not in fact accidentally forget to include heterosexual/straight because the application maker had a brain fart and forgot straight people existed for a solid hour. No. It was a test, you see. Anyway congratulations to asexuals.

In "second languages", we are pleased to report that the majority of you can speak at least a little bit of Spanish- which is promising.

And now, are top favorite contributions:

We may release a part 2 of the results if met with demand. For now, take this as a parting piece. Thank you once again for applying, and we look forward to seeing you first thing next week. -Vladco

Love how every zelda has a special interest and that special interest saves the world.

#Like whether it's piracy or history of light magic or ninjas or technology or art zelda ALWAYS gets super interested in the one thing #That'll save her and the kingdom down the line. Like oot zelda 100% idolised impa and demanded to be taught shiekah techniques #And disguise only for those skills to become vital during the 7 years link was gone. #Tp zelda had the most knowledge of light magic it's history and applications and spirits by FAR and all of those enabled her to save midna #And summon light arrows #If ww zelda was sitting pretty on an island instead of roaming the seas with a loyal crew and several cannons link would have been screwed. #If botw zelda had been allowed to pursue her fascination with shiekah tech or even science as a whole who knows what they might have manage #Ganon might not have been able to take them over at all. She might have learned to channel her power through artifacts or learned to mimic #The energy flow of the shiekah magic which is directly derived from hylia/the tf of wisdom! She wouldn't have been stranded at the mountain #When ganon attacked if she hadn't been forced up there on her birthday. She could have outfitted the champions with better weapons that #Would have been more effective against the blights. She might have unlocked the slate or the shrines. She would have been more confident #And thus less abrasive with link. They would have been able to bond sooner and faster. Link would have been more relaxed and ready. #The shiekah might have been able to rework teleportation instead of 106 years late. #I am salty about rhoam banning her. It never would have worked out well. #Never keep a zelda from her special interest okay!!!! #Like as soon as she and link got to do whatever they wanted the problem got solved within a few months. #Never tell a link to behave or a zelda she can't research #loz #legend of zelda #tears of the kingdom #Totk #loz totk #loz tears of the kingdom #Botw #loz botw #breath of the wild #Zelda #princess zelda #loz zelda #loz link

Okay my fellow ADHDers or whatever else is up with your brains that makes it hard for you to study and study on time and study in a way that you actually remember stuff:

How do you get yourself to actually sit down and study? For me, the "oh shit deadline/exam soon, we can focus for a bit in emergency mode" hasn't worked in a long time now, which leads me now to an exam last week or so I put off to February and another one I would have tomorrow that I'm almost positive I won't go to because I never was in the lecture (clashed with another mandatory one) and only just now downloaded the stuff the professor provided, and I'm about ready to fall asleep so I know I won't manage it in time anymore anyway. And I have two other things I'd need done by tomorrow and I already know I'll cry during christmas break because of being overwhelmed not only because of staying at my parents' and missing my friends but mostly because I'll be overwhelmed at the prospect of January coming up with all the presentations and exams etc etc to get done, next to preparing for my main translation exams in February and getting started on my thesis.

So. HOW do you sit down and actually make yourself study? I came home at 7:30pm today, it's now 3:40am and I'm queuing this so that someone might see and have some sort of advice, because in that time I have finished one sentence of a translation that I'd been putting off for two weeks - ONE sentence - and revised the translation but like, very half-assed. I did not study for the exam although it was RIGHT THERE in my brain the whole time and I KNEW it was the most important thing and still, my brain just went kinda "eh 🤷🏼‍♀️" and I naturally didn't get my bills or even something I'd enjoy doing done. Just did fuck all for several hours that I swear didn't feel that long.

So, yeah, any advice on how to get yourself to actually START working and then sticking with it would be very much appreciated.

#body doubling only works somedays but often esp in the library i'm also irritated by other people #pomodoro etc doesn't work at all #help #adhd #mine #yeah i'M not doing that exam it's in 12h and I need to sleep now; I'm doing it in february #it's about how to build streets or whatever. not my studies but from the technology faculty as a chosen credit thing. #idk man i'm tired i can't think anymore. i chose it when i still thought i was going on erasmus so I'd be done in december #and not have clashing exams and leaving times #which btw i'm still upsetti spaghetti over. for ONCE i did everything right and put my whole heart in the application and they went na sorr #anyway. good night. #i'm exhausted and idk how i'll manage this semester and then it only gets worse because then there's a goddamn thesis to write #and after that i hope i'll be able to have some summer off at least before i start to work and will only have 5 weeks off a year until i die #or maybe retire if there still is a normal retirement age by then 👍 #yeah i“ #xm #jesus #i'm very excited to start fulltime work a #can you see it?

The more I learn about very basic ways to generate (admittedly very low) amounts of electricity using basically nothing the more pissed I am that like 17 people are insistent on sending the whole world to hell because god forbid they make less than $87 trillion every minute

#please feel free to ignore this #Jake meets world #Read a very cool paper about applications of triboelectrics in wearable technology #Obv nothing significant enough to like power a city but like idk #Just a reminder that pretty much anything can make electricity we don't need dirty energy sources

The latest quantum computing news is funny as hell, and mirrors the fiasco with Google's claim a few years ago. They claimed to have done a calculation that would've taken 10K years on a conventional processor, then maybe a few months later a Chinese group proved it was doable in five minutes on silicon. IBM's recent claim has already been refuted, with a research group making a better accurate calculation in only several minutes.

I'm all for quantum optimism, but it is not the era-changer that their marketing makes it out to be. It's also not even useful for anything yet and given the immense cost it's kind of silly. I don't particularly care for investment grifts but I also don't like false information.

#we are still a long time off from commercial application of quantum computing #and we haven't even reached the peak of silicon technology either

A More Realistic Artificial Skin May Lead to Medical Advances - Technology Org

A More Realistic Artificial Skin May Lead to Medical Advances - Technology Org

A new bioengineered skin model could improve testing of skincare products and lead to better ways to heal damaged skin.

University of Oregon researchers have teamed up with scientists with the French personal care company L’Oréal to develop a multilayered artificial skin that more accurately mimics real human skin, and can be grown in just 18 days. The advance relies on a novel 3D printing technique invented by Paul Dalton, an associate professor in the Phil and Penny Knight Campus for Accelerating Scientific Impact at the UO. 

The research was published in the journal Advanced Functional Materials.

“This is the first known case of replicating quality skin tissue at full thickness, using different kinds of cells separated by a membrane,” said Ievgenii Liashenko, a research engineer in Dalton’s lab. 

Creating an artificial skin isn’t as simple as growing cells in a petri dish. Real skin has multiple layers, with different kinds of cells that perform distinct functions. And in the body, cells are supported by an external network of proteins and other molecules. Called the extracellular matrix, this system helps cells stay in position and communicate with their neighbors, which is key to keeping all systems working properly.

To replicate this complex environment, the researchers designed a two-layered artificial skin, with the layers separated by a membrane.

Researchers from Dalton’s lab and L’Oréal co-developed plastic scaffolds that mimic the extracellular matrix via a network of finely structured 3D printed threads. Then, L’Oréal researchers grew cultured cells in those scaffolds to create the artificial skin, with different cell types growing in each layer. The membrane prevents the cells in the different layers from mixing as they develop. 

“Other attempts don’t have the same layering—it actually looks like real skin,” said Dalton, who is the Bradshaw and Holzapfel Research Professor in Transformational Science and Mathematics.

The underlying scaffolds resemble a mesh material made of many spaghetti-like threads, each much thinner than a human hair. To make the porous scaffold, members of Dalton’s team used a 3D printing technique they’ve developed called melt electrowriting. In that technique, an electric field pulls the molten printing plastic from a nozzle into a thin thread, enabling very precise control over the printing.

Some 3D printing techniques can create very fine details, but only small objects, Dalton said.

Other techniques allow easy fabrication of larger pieces, but at the expense of resolution. Melt electrowriting bridges that gap, allowing engineers to create relatively large objects with fine details.

The new skin model can be grown in just 18 days, the researchers found, rather than the 21 to 35 days it took to create previous scaffold-based artificial skin models. That makes it more viable to use in commercial lab testing.

L’Oréal is currently using the artificial skin to test cosmetics and skin care products. Going forward, both Dalton’s team and L’Oréal researchers plan to explore the many other potential uses for the underlying scaffolding in skin tissue engineering.

Other potential skin-related applications include healing diabetic foot ulcers and creating skin grafts for burn patients. Beyond skin, the scaffolds developed by Dalton’s team could support myriad biomedical applications, such as artificial blood vessels and structures to help regrow damaged nerves. 

“While we’ve made this big advance with the skin, the design of the scaffold is crucial and could be applied more broadly,” Dalton said. “There are so many diseases and injuries in the world that aren’t being solved, so having an extra tool to try to tackle these is really valuable.”

The materials used in the scaffold are already FDA– approved for use inside the human body, making the path to real-world application smoother. 

The fabrication facilities at the Knight Campus make it possible for Dalton’s team to scale up production of the materials, Dalton said. “This is the part of the Knight Campus projecting its expertise beyond UO to influence state-of-the-art research fields globally.”

firmly and deeply resent the modern condition of stratification social isolation and compulsion to not only own ‘essential’ tech and have it within arms length at all times but also to adopt and maintain a digital identity/social life

#everything even modestly good has gone to absolute shit every revolutionary hope for the internet is dead or being killed etc #technology the vampire. were killing the earth for it #lysposting #fuck social media tbh. this is so fucked up. #idk the future (now) is just a big piñata of diarrhea #I’ve known a lot of people addicted to screens like from the instant they became widely available in terms of phones. i wonder what my life #would have looked like with either no smartphones at all or limited application for them. I hate this thing.
