You Have No Idea How Wrong You Are - YouTube - 2 views

  •  
    "There are a lot more ways to be wrong than there are ways to be right. Yet somehow, many of us think that we are probably right most of the time. Prior generations were wrong about almost everything they believed, but this does not stop our unfailing confidence that we, being so much more enlightened, have things for the most part figured out."

Frequently Asked Q: Turn an iPad Into an Oscilloscope - 1 views

  •  
    MSO-104 oscilloscope. What makes this scope so different? It is a very small module, smaller than the Arduino Uno sitting next to it on my desk, that plugs into your iOS device and your iOS device handles all of the display and heavy duty work for the oscilloscope! I usually have my iPad or iPhone with me when I am working so this seemed like an ideal solution.

    "Their machine is an adaptation of the box kite idea, with a propeller working on a perpendicular shaft to raise or lower the craft, and another working on a horizontal shaft to send it forward. The machine, it is said, can be raised or lowered with perfect control, and can carry a strong gasoline engine capable of making a speed of ten miles an hour. "

    "They all start as a hexagonal crystal of ice and then spread out, forming delicate arms and enchantingly intricate patterns. It's long been known that different temperatures influence the patterns of ice crystal growth. Near -2 °C, they grow into small, flat discs. At -5 °C, they form slender columns and needles. Near -15 °C, the thinnest, largest flakes, like the one pictured, emerge. At temperatures below -30 °C, they make columns once again. "
