L'immagine è un meme che rappresenta una scena drammatica. A sinistra, una donna con capelli rossi e una maglietta rosa corre verso destra con un'espressione di paura sul viso. La sua bocca è aperta in un grido, e le sue braccia sono tese verso un soldato in uniforme verde militare. Il soldato, con un'espressione seria, tiene una mitragliatrice puntata verso un bambino piccolo in camicia azzurra e pantaloni blu. Il bambino ha un'espressione di paura e sta guardando il soldato. Sopra la donna, c'è un testo che dice: "No, don't Kill the Children." Sopra il soldato, c'è un testo che dice: "Are you Anti-Semitic." Lo sfondo è un paesaggio urbano desolato con edifici in lontananza.

Highlights the importance of right-to-repair.
“The US military is a major force for manufacturers to contend with — and Warren hopes that adopting repairability rules will have a ripple effect far outside it. “The Army’s commitment to right to repair shows other industries that they can do the same,” Warren says. “If it can happen here, it can happen in farm equipment, farmers, washing machines, consumer electronics… and every place else that big manufacturers have tried to take two bites at the apple: the initial price and another bite at the consumer to cover subsequent repairs.”l

It’s really hard at times, but it’s also really rewarding. Thanks for the kind words of support!
Below is her listing on our website, she’s very sweet and in a dog-free home would make a wonderful house cat. When we give her and her kittens free time while the dogs are in another room, she often comes up for pets and will even sit on your lap.
We’re still hopeful we can find a place for her!

Im Vordergrund liegt ein Mountainbike auf dem Sandstrand, bereit für eine Fahrt. Der See erstreckt sich weit in die Ferne, umgeben von dichtem grünem Wald. Auf der anderen Seite des Sees sind einige Gebäude und Häuser zu sehen, die sich harmonisch in die Landschaft einfügen. Die Farben sind lebendig und die Atmosphäre ist friedlich und einladend.

Compliant Mechanism Shrinks Instead of Stretching
Intuitively, you think that everything that you stretch will pull back, but you wouldn’t expect a couple of pieces of plastic to win. Yet, researchers over at [AMOLF] have figured out a way to make a mechanism that will eventually shrink once you pull it enough.
Named “Counter-snapping instabilities”, the mechanism is made out of the main sub-components that act together to stretch a certain amount until a threshold is met. Then the units work together and contract until they’re shorter than their initial length. This is possible by using compliant joints that make up each of the units. We’ve seen a similar concept in robotics.
Potentially this may be used as a unidirectional actuator, allowing movement inch by inch. In addition, one application mentioned may be somewhat surprising: damping. If a structure or body is oscillating through a positive feedback loop it may continue till it becomes uncontrollable. If these units are used, after a certain threshold of oscillation the units will lock and retract, therefore stopping further escalation.
Made possible by the wonders of compliant mechanics, these shrinking instabilities show a clever solution to some potential niche applications. If you want to explore the exciting world of compliance further, don’t be scared to check out this easy to print blaster design!

"At Tscherning, we not only decide how we drive – but also who we drive with. That’s why we’ve chosen to hand over the keys to our Tesla company cars – not because Tesla has become a bad car, but in light of Elon Musk’s political commitment and the opinions he has publicly expressed (and which are increasingly hard to overlook), we as a company have chosen to say “thank you for the ride.”
