Largest gene, polyprotein that contains SARS-CoV-2 non-structural proteins 1 to 11.
Can be used to detect single photons.
Richard Feynman likes them, he describes the tube at Richard Feynman Quantum Electrodynamics Lecture at University of Auckland (1979) at one point.
It uses the photoelectric effect multiple times to produce a chain reaction. In particular, as mentioned at youtu.be/5V8VCFkAd0A?t=74 from Video 1. "Using a Photomultiplier to Detect single photons by Huygens Optics" this means that the device has a lowest sensitive light frequency, beyond which photons don't have enough energy to eject any electrons.

Source. The cutest fan art ever!This section discusses the pre-photon understanding of the polarization of light. For the photon one see: photon polarization.
polarization.com/history/history.html is a good page.
People were a bit confused when experiments started to show that light might be polarized. How could a wave that propages through a 3D homgenous material like luminiferous aether have polarization?? Light would presumably be understood to be analogous to a sound wave in 3D medium, which cannot have polarization. This was before Maxwell's equations, in the early 19th century, so there was no way to know.
The link will break, and the answer will lose. Or the person who summarizes inline will get more upvotes because people are lazy to click the link. Also, web archiving exists.
This is especially idiotic when it is a link to another post in Stack Overflow itself.

The rise of powerful AI will either be the best or the worst thing ever to happen to humanity. We do not yet know which.
For each process, the virtual address space looks like this:
------------------ 2^32 - 1
Stack (grows down)
v v v v v v v v v
------------------
(unmapped)
------------------ Maximum stack size.

------------------- 0The kernel maintains a list of pages that belong to each process, and synchronizes that with the paging.
If the program accesses memory that does not belong to it, the kernel handles a page-fault, and decides what to do:
- if it is above the maximum stack size, allocate those pages to the process
- otherwise, send a SIGSEGV to the process, which usually kills it
When an ELF file is loaded by the kernel to start a program with the
exec system call, the kernel automatically registers text, data, BSS and stack for the program.The
brk and mmap areas can be modified by request of the program through the brk and mmap system calls. But the kernel can also deny the program those areas if there is not enough memory.brk and mmap can be used to implement malloc, or the so called "heap".mmap is also used to load dynamically loaded libraries into the program's memory so that it can access and run it.Stack allocation: stackoverflow.com/questions/17671423/stack-allocation-for-process
Calculating exact addresses Things are complicated by:
- Address Space Layout Randomization.
- the fact that environment variables, CLI arguments, and some ELF header data take up initial stack space: unix.stackexchange.com/questions/145557/how-does-stack-allocation-work-in-linux/239323#239323

When TLB is filled up, older addresses are overwritten. Just like CPU cache, the replacement policy is a potentially complex operation, but a simple and reasonable heuristic is to remove the least recently used entry (LRU).
