Special orthogonal group Updated +Created
Group of rotations of a rigid body.
Like orthogonal group but without reflections. So it is a "special case" of the orthogonal group.
This is a subgroup of both the orthogonal group and the special linear group.

Superconducting tunnel junction Updated +Created
Specific type of Josephson junction. Probably can be made tiny and in huge numbers through photolithography.

Illustration of a thin-film superconducting tunnel junction (STJ)

Quantum Transport, Lecture 14: Josephson effects by Sergey Frolov (2013)
Source. youtu.be/-HUVGWTfaSI?t=878 mentions maskless electron beam lithography being used to produce STJs.
LC circuit Updated +Created
When Ciro Santilli was studying electronics at the University of São Paulo, the courses, which were heavily inspired from the USA 50's were obsessed by this one! Thinking about it, it is kind of a cool thing though.

LC circuit dampened oscillations on an oscilloscope by Queuerious Guy (2014)
Source. Finally a video that shows the oscillations without a driving AC source. The dude just move wires around on his breadboard manually, first charging the capacitor and then closing the LC circuit, and is able to see damped oscillations on the oscilloscope.

Video 4. Source. Exactly what you would expect from an Eugene Khutoryansky video. The key insight is that the inductor resists to changes in current. So when current is zero, it slows down the current. And when current is high, it tries to keep it going, which recharges the other side of the capacitor.

Terminal emulator Updated +Created
Once upon a time young Ciro Santilli spent lots of time evaluating the features of different terimnals. The many windows of Terminator. The pop-uppiness of Guake/Yakuake.
But then one day he met tmux, and he was enlightened
Terminal choice doesn't matter. Just use tmux.
