Nebraska Posted February 2, 2022 Report Share Posted February 2, 2022 Quote Flowers discovered perfectly preserved in globs of amber bloomed at the feet of dinosaurs, suggesting that some flowering plants in South Africa today have remained unchanged for 99 million years, a new study reveals.

Scaramouche Posted February 21, 2022 Report Share Posted February 21, 2022 This could posted in the Social Media thread. Number 1 red flag should have been that the guy looks like a complete tool. https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-60387324 Quote The Zoom call had about 40 people on it - or that's what the people who had logged on thought. The all-staff meeting at the glamorous design agency had been called to welcome the growing company's newest recruits. Its name was Madbird and its dynamic and inspirational boss, Ali Ayad, wanted everyone on the call to be ambitious hustlers - just like him. But what those who had turned on their cameras didn't know was that some of the others in the meeting weren't real people. Yes, they were listed as participants. Some even had active email accounts and LinkedIn profiles. But their names were made up and their headshots belonged to other people. The whole thing was fake - the real employees had been "jobfished". The BBC has spent a year investigating what happened.

zazen Posted February 27, 2022 Report Share Posted February 27, 2022 (edited) The most complicated machine ever built is the EUV Lithography machine built by a Dutch company called ASML. 50,000 times a second, the machine hits a 25 micron drop of molten tin that is moving at 70 meters per second with two co-ordinated lasers, the first hit to change the shape of the drop of tin in exactly the right way, the second hit to vaporise it, creating Extreme Ultraviolet Light at the right wavelength to etch chip designs onto silicon at "5nm process" sizes. More about the light souce - No one else in the world is able to make these machines. If you buy one it costs $150m and gets shipped to you in forty containers on specially adapted planes. Very few firms have the resources/know how to even run the machines. The best known firm to use the machines is TSMC in Taiwan, who make over half of all the worlds chips and hence make Taiwan a strategically vital country to the worlds economy.
