Physics, tech and humor. Because science and learning are cool, and life’s too short not to laugh.
Chad went an mentioned a buzzword that sets my teeth on edge: deferred maintenance.
It’s not just the economics of academia that suck in this regard. I’ve seen my fair share of it, too. As Chad notes, maintenance is not sexy, and it’s hard to get people not directly involved fired up about [...]
Chemistry Drives Convection
Convection occurs when lower density fluid is located below higher density fluid–the lower density material rises, and the higher density material sinks. The best known case is where the lower density fluid is warmer, but it need not be. Since the 1980s researchers have been studying convection triggered by “autocatalytic” reactions, which are [...]
