By Andy Haas, an experimental particle physics professor: as.nyu.edu/content/nyu-as/as/faculty/andy-haas.html What an awesome dude!

899 USD as of 2022, takes a year to ship as they gather up a lot of orders before producing.

Sounds so cool, especially the multi functionality. Shame so expensive.

Projects:

How to decide if an ORM is decent? Just try to replicate every SQL query from nodejs/sequelize/raw/many_to_many.js on PostgreSQL and SQLite.

There is only a very finite number of possible reasonable queries on a two table many to many relationship with a join table. A decent ORM has to be able to do them all.

If it can do all those queries, then the ORM can actually do a good subset of SQL and is decent. If not, it can't, and this will make you suffer. E.g. Sequelize v5 is such an ORM that makes you suffer.

The next thing to check are transactions.

Basically, all of those come up if you try to implement a blog hello world world such as gothinkster/realworld correctly, i.e. without unnecessary inefficiencies due to your ORM on top of underlying SQL, and dealing with concurrency.

This was an intermediate step between the nuclear chain reaction prototype Chicago Pile-1 and the full blown plutonium mass production at Hanford site. Located in the Oak Ridge National Laboratory.

Precursor organization to the Oak Ridge National Laboratory, name that it took in January 1948.

Produced the enriched uranium used for Little Boy, located in the area/predecessor of Oak Ridge National Laboratory.

Ciro Santilli's jaw dropped when he learned about this concept. A Small Talent for War, are you sure?

The B Reactor of the facility produced the plutonium used for Trinity and Fat Man, and then for many more thousand bombs during the Cold War. More precisely, this was done at

Located in Washington, in a dry place the middle of the mountainous areas of the Western United States, where basically no one lives. The Columbia river is however nearby, that river is quite large, and provided the water needed by their activities, notably for cooling the nuclear reactors. It is worth it having look on Google Maps to get a feel for the region.

Unlike many other such laboratories, this one did not become a United States Department of Energy national laboratories. It was likely just too polluted.

Bibliography:

The equation is simple: frequency is proportional to field strength!

Used to identify organic compounds.

Seems to be based on the effects that electrons around the nuclei (shielding electrons) have on the outcome of NMR.

So it is a bit unlike MRI where you are interested in the position of certain nuclei in space (of course, these being atoms, you can't see their positions in space).
