The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time by Ciro Santilli 35 Updated +Created
This game was mind blowing to Ciro Santilli and all kids. It felt so real. The perfect contrast between peaceful town work and saving the world. OMG.

Schrödinger equation for a one dimensional particle by Ciro Santilli 35 Updated +Created
We select for the general Equation "Schrodinger equation":
giving the full explicit partial differential equation:

.
The corresponding time-independent Schrödinger equation for this equation is:

Examples:
  • flash memory uses quantum tunneling as the basis for setting and resetting bits
  • alpha decay is understood as a quantum tunneling effect in the nucleus
Erase SSD securely by Ciro Santilli 35 Updated +Created
You can't just shred individual sSD files because SSD writes only at large granularities, so hardware/drivers have to copy stuff around all the time to compact it. This means that leftover copies are left around everywhere.
What you can do however is to erase the entire thing with vendor support, which most hardware has support for. On hardware encrypted disks, you can even just erase the keys:

Electron Interference by the Italian National Research Council (1976)

Institutional video about the 1974 single electron experiment by Merli, Missiroli, Pozzi from the University of Bologna.
Uses an electron biprism as in electron holography inside a transmission electron microscope.
Shows them manually making the biprism by drawing a fine glass wire and coating it with gold.
Then actually show the result live on a television screen, where you see the interference patterns only at higher electron currents, and then on photographic film.
This was elected "the most beautiful experiment" by readers of Physics World in 2002.
Italian title: "Interferenza di elettroni". Goddammit, those Italian cinematographers can make even physics look exciting!

Oxford Nanopore MinION by Ciro Santilli 35 Updated +Created
One of the sequencers made by Oxford Nanopore Technologies.
The device has had several updates since however, notably of the pore proteins which are present in the critical flow cell consumable.
Official documentation: nanoporetech.com/products/minion (archive)
The following images of the device and its peripherals were taken during the experiment: Section "How to use an Oxford Nanopore MinION to extract DNA from river water and determine which bacteria live in it".

Meteor (web framework) by Ciro Santilli 35 Updated +Created
The idea is cool. It really unifies front-and back end.
But Ciro Santilli feels the approach proposed by FeathersJS of being a glue between bigger third-party Front-end web frameworks like React and backend (object-relational mapping) is more promising and flexible.
