This is cavitation inside a piston diaphragm pump. Most engineers spend their entire careers hearing this destructive phenomenon. Almost none ever get to see it with their own eyes. When pressure drops below a critical threshold, liquid instantly flashes into vapor, creating thousands of microscopic bubbles throughout the system.... It happens in milliseconds, invisible to the naked eye in standard metal pumps. But when pressure rises again, those bubbles don't just disappear quietly. They collapse violently, sending shockwaves rippling through the metal components. The result is catastrophic. Valves get destroyed. Seals get shredded. Pump chambers get hollowed out from the inside, one microscopic implosion at a time. Cavitation is one of the most destructive forces in industrial fluid systems, responsible for equipment failures that cost thousands of dollars per incident. Engineers have studied it for decades through sensors, pressure readings, and the telltale sounds it makes. But they've never been able to watch it happen in real time. Until now. The clear plexiglass head on this LEWA pump changes everything. For the first time, pump engineers can observe cavitation as it occurs, watching the bubble formation and violent collapse that destroys their equipment. It's like finally seeing the invisible enemy that's been wreaking havoc on industrial systems. This is what happens when engineering innovation meets visualization technology. Sometimes the most powerful breakthroughs come from simply making the invisible visible.show more

Today we’re introducing 2 HUGE changes to the pump fun mechanism (in beta) 1) Coin creation is FREE 2) Coin creators receive 0.5 SOL (~$80) when their coin completes its bonding curve How does it work? 1) Instead of the creator having to pay ~$2 for coin creation, this cost is now paid by the first buyer of the coin *This unlocks the use case of someone creating a coin without buying any of its supply* Why would they do that? 2) They receive 0.5 SOL (~$80) if the coin completes its bonding curve. - This gets paid out from the pump fun migration fee (now only 1.5 SOL) - it is paid regardless of whether the coin dev has ever held the coin or still holding the coin - The reward also gives an incentive for all devs to get their coin to 100% Final notes: - when the coin is created, it’s not put onchain until someone buys it. That’s why sometimes, there may be a difference between the time it launched on the pump fun interface and when it launched on mainnet (what you will see on solscan, for instance)

Kedarnath is a tremendous space. The utterance of the sound “Shiva” attains a completely new dimension and significance in Kedar. It is a space which has been specially prepared for this particular sound. When we utter the word “Shiva,” it is the freedom of the uncreated, the liberation of one who is not created. It is almost like on this planet, the sound “Shiva” emanates from this place. For thousands of years, people have experienced that space as a reverberation of that sound. This is also a place that has witnessed thousands of Yogis and mystics of every kind. When I say every kind, you cannot imagine those kinds. These are people who made no attempt to teach anything to anyone. Their way of making an offering to the world was by leaving their energies, their path, their work – everything – in a certain way in these spaces.

If you ever get the chance to go to Normandy, take it. Don't just visit it-take your time and let it sink in, because it is one of the most humbling experiences I've ever had. Standing there, looking out across those beaches, you can almost feel the weight of what happened there. It's hard to fully understand what those soldiers went through until you're standing in that place, realizing the courage it took just to run toward that shore. The beauty of Normandy is quiet and powerful, but so is the sacrifice it represents. The rows of white crosses, the history in the ground, the silence in the air-it all reminds you that freedom came at a tremendous cost. It's the kind of place that stays with you long after you leave. It makes you grateful, reflective, and a little more aware of how much was given for the life we live today. Normandy is more than a battlefield. It is a lesson in sacrifice, bravery, and remembrance. 🙏🇺🇸🙏

Apparently, I saw this video online and I decided to share. What this worker is applying is called bitumen, or what many of us know as bituminous coating. Most people think a wall is a solid, impenetrable block, but in reality, it is more like a sponge. Concrete and blocks have microscopic pores that pull water from the earth through a process we call capillary action. This thick black substance is the shield that stops that water from climbing up into the house. It is not about making the wall look good because this part will be buried under the dirt forever. It is about creating a skin that water cannot breathe through. When do you need to do this? The need for this arises because the soil is a very aggressive environment. Water is not your only enemy.. The ground also contains salts and sulfates that want to eat away at the cement. If this moisture finds its way to the steel bars inside the columns, those bars will start to rust. And when steel rusts, it expands, and that expansion is what cracks the concrete from the inside out. This coating is the only thing standing between your foundation and that kind of slow destruction. Thats is why if you see wet patches at the bottom of your walls inside your house, it usually means someone skipped this step or did it poorly during construction. You can apply this anytime you are building parts of a structure that will stay in contact with the ground. It is common in areas where the water table is high or where the soil stays damp for most of the year. This is a one-shot opportunity. Once you backfill the soil, you can never go back to fix it without a lot of expense and a lot of digging. It is about having the foresight to protect the heart of the building while it is still exposed. Please don’t ignore this if you need to. If you ignore it now to save a bit of money, you will be funding the future decay of your own home. I hope this helps.

Sitting here watching my Cybertruck charge with the mountains of Utah in the background, it hit me again… I really believe this is the most beautiful Tesla ever made. Every angle is different. It looks futuristic without trying too hard, and it fits just as well in the middle of a city as it does surrounded by nature like this. What makes this truck special is so much more than just the stainless steel or design. For me it’s how capable and practical it is. Long road trips, hauling gear, camping, tough weather, and FSD… it feels like THE one vehicle built to do almost everything. I’ve owned and driven many Teslas over the years, and every one has been amazing in their own unique way, but the Cybertruck is the first one that genuinely makes me stop and look back every time I park it. Driving across the U.S. in this beast has only reinforced that feeling. And to me, the Cybertruck is the best vehicle Tesla has ever built.

The fascinating concept of Non-Newtonian fluids, which transition from a liquid state to a solid-like state when pressure is applied, has a rich history that spans several centuries. The study and understanding of these peculiar fluids have evolved over time, leading to a wide range of practical applications and scientific insights. One of the earliest references to Non-Newtonian behavior in fluids dates back to the 17th century when Sir Isaac Newton formulated the basic principles of fluid mechanics. Newton's laws of fluid motion primarily applied to Newtonian fluids, which exhibit constant viscosity and flow behavior regardless of the applied force or pressure. However, it soon became apparent that not all fluids behaved in this predictable manner. In the mid-19th century, a scientist named Thomas Andrews made significant contributions to the understanding of Non-Newtonian fluids. Andrews conducted groundbreaking experiments with carbon dioxide, revealing that under high pressure, this gas could transform into a liquid. This observation marked one of the earliest instances of pressure-induced phase changes in fluids. The term "Non-Newtonian" itself was coined in the 20th century to describe fluids that did not adhere to Newton's classical laws of fluid dynamics. These fluids exhibited a variety of behaviors, but one of the most intriguing was their ability to solidify or increase in viscosity when subjected to stress or pressure. One of the most famous examples of such behavior is cornstarch mixed with water, which forms a substance known as "oobleck" that becomes more solid when pressure is applied. In the modern era, Non-Newtonian fluids have found applications in various fields, including food science, engineering, and material science. They are used in products like quicksand, body armor, and even in the development of impact-resistant materials. One of the key insights that emerged from the study of Non-Newtonian fluids is the importance of understanding the relationship between stress and strain, as well as the influence of time-dependent properties on their behavior. This knowledge has led to advancements in rheology, the study of flow and deformation in materials, and has practical implications in areas such as industrial processing, medicine, and the design of everyday products.

One of the worst things you can ever do is tell a child that he can never be good enough and that his worth will always mean nothing. The caste system does exactly this. Hearing such sentences even one time can destroy their lives, and they will spend the rest of their lives in a state of anxiety. They will succumb to perfectionism, trying to prove their worth even in meaningless things. They will no longer be able to relax or chill. They will always try to overcompensate. The caste system is one of the most evil systems ever conceived by humankind. And yes, anyone who advocates it, validates it, or even slightly leans toward it is my enemy. I will have no respect for you or your upbringing. This is my stand, and I will take these words to my grave. This is the bare minimum. Everyone must condemn the caste system and try to abolish it. Otherwise, you are a disgusting human being. Thank you ప్రశ్న for this ♥️

Doge, Pepe, and Shib all crashed 85-95% after their initial run ups. Troll is currently right around this mark. Many will wait for a dip to bid, thinking they have missed the “pump”. Nobody has seen a pump. Every single time $Troll gets going(has had 2 legs thus far), it runs harder than anyone believes it can simply due to the fact that it is a top 3 meme ever and subconsciously people realize it deserves to be in the billions. The third leg will be no different and it will make the first 2 look like chump pumps. It is one of if not the only meme left that has this kind of reflexivity and has been around for over a year. Buy as much $Troll as you can in the coming months. When risk on comes back fully, you will see Troll run like you have not seen a coin run in a long time. People have forgotten what a worldwide, known meme can do because they trade niche memes all day, they will be reminded of what we are here to begin with. Trade less, $Troll more.

This is one of the nicest things about China: whatever happens to you, you can always count on people's solidarity. This is what just happened to us. We wanted to park our RV right next to Hulun lake for the night but stupidly managed to get it stuck in the sand. Impossible to drive out anymore 😓 Immediately, and I mean immediately, people around us started to pitch in to help. Luckily it so happened that a group of ex-PLA soldiers were having a get-together barbecue 100 meters away from us. They got told about our issue, stopped their barbecue and came to help. They told us "don't worry, no matter what we'll get you out, it's just a matter of time". Before we know it, one of the guys takes the wheel of the RV and the others start pushing. In 5 minutes, job done! RV unstuck and the guys get back to their barbecue. The Chinese are often depicted as cold and distant but my consistent experience is that they're one of the kindest people in the world, always ready to help a fellow human in need!

Ever drink water directly from a creek or lake? This is my son, drinking from a little lake in Jasper, on the Chaba trail in 2014. I do it all the time on my hikes. It's the number one topic I get on YouTube. Everyone tells me it's dangerous. That's because most Canadians have never seen the inside of a water pipe in their community. I usually convert about 90% of the folks who come hiking with me. I've never been sick, but I have had upset stomachs. Mostly because of the high dissolved mineral content.

One of the most profitable bots i've ever seen on Polymarket crazy 9922 predictions with unreal 80% accuracy and $430k pnl in one month. making $8k-30k every day using the simplest and most obvious strategy ever. account: on 99% of Up/Down markets, it holds Up and Down positions at the same time. it buys both outcomes when combined price is under $1. example: 35¢ for Up, 62¢ for Down = 97¢ total. Risk-free profit in any case. doesn't wait until the market resolution, average holding time is just a few minutes. don't try this yourself, humans can't catch these mispricings. It all happens in milliseconds. I'm starting to seriously think about creating a similar bot, lol.

🚨 THE LAST NEUTRAL LINE: If Oman is pulled in, the entire region changes For decades, Oman has been the quiet bridge in the Middle East — the country that talks to everyone when nobody else can. Iran knows this. The Gulf states know this. The West knows this. That’s why any reports involving Oman matter so much. Because Oman isn’t just another country on the map. It sits on the edge of the Strait of Hormuz — the world’s most critical energy chokepoint — and it has historically been the last diplomatic door left open when tensions explode. If that door closes… The off-ramps disappear. Neutral ground vanishes. And the risk of full regional war rises dramatically. Right now the situation remains fluid and not all claims are confirmed. But one thing is certain: The Middle East is closer to a historic turning point than it has been in years. Stand by.

I love your observation and it will make me discuss the remarkable adaptations that prevents giraffes from passing out and suffering brain damage when bending to drink water and when standing up. ADAPTATION 1 Did you know that the distance from the giraffe's heart to its brain is about 2 meters or more? That's more than the average humans height! Pumping blood up to that great distance and working against gravity is not a joke! That's where the giraffe's heart comes in. A giraffe's heart is unique in several ways. First, it is quite large, weighing up to 11kg and measuring about 2 feet long, which is necessary to pump blood up the long neck to the brain. Second, it has thick walls to generate enough pressure to overcome gravity and push the blood up to the head. ADAPTATION 2 Now, let's move to the neck. Before discussing the incredible roles the valves in the jugular veins perform, let's look at what can happen without them, and then the solution. Problem I: When the giraffe bends down to drink, blood rushes downward to the head. Gravity pulls a huge volume of blood toward the brain, which could cause dangerously high pressure in the head and potentially burst vessels or cause other damage. Solution: They have one-way valves in the jugular veins (the large veins in the neck). These prevent blood from rushing backward uncontrollably into the head when lowered. These valves help regulate and slow the downward flow, avoiding a massive pressure surge to the brain. Also, the neck veins can act as temporary blood storage unit, storing over 1 litre of blood. This prevents blood from flooding the brain and also reduces the amount of blood returning to the heart. As a result, the heart pumps with lower pressure while the head is lowered. This buffers the high head pressure that gravity would otherwise cause. Problem II: When they raise their head up immediately after drinking, blood pressure drops sharply to the brain. A sudden drop could starve the brain of oxygen, causing fainting. This is similar to but much more extreme than the dizziness some people feel when standing up quickly. Solution: When the giraffe raises its head, that stored blood rushes back to the heart quickly. The heart responds with a strong, high-pressure beat that immediately pushes blood back up to the brain, preventing a dangerous drop in cerebral pressure. Impressive right?!

Is there any real "due diligence" done by the 🅰️people? All of their points seem empty, vague, and very handwavy, at least that's the feeling I get. It seems to be confirmed when it comes down to the facts, they try to apply that same vague speculatory mindset they use regarding Starlink, arriving at a conclusion that always seems to be wrong. How many guesses have been propagated as truth? How many small differences have been exaggerated so large that they become the very core of their position? Probably a lot, because the trend I see is to take a kernel of truth and cover it with heavy layers of lies and speculation. I like what ASTS is doing, but the community makes it pretty hard to know what's actually significant, and the truth is, it's pretty hard to tell until both constellations are built and delivering data to customers. The issue is that most of them likely have a huge amount of money riding on the company, so they'll take anything and go with it solely for the comfort factor.

Nobody comes into my office and says they've been losing ground for years. They come in for a knee or a shoulder. But when you ask the right questions, a different story emerges. They stopped hiking because it got too hard. They gave up tennis. They hesitate before the stairs they used to take without thinking. They've quietly rearranged their lives around what they can no longer do... and most of them didn't notice it happening. This is what I think of as the narrowing of people's lives. It's not a dramatic event. Instead, it's a gradual shrinking of what's physically possible, so slow that people mistake the adaptation for a choice. It wasn't a choice. It was the slow, quiet disappearance of capacity that nobody warned them to protect. They normalized all the changes and attributed them solely to aging. The narrowing is not inevitable!! Dammit... it's not ;-)! But it requires intention to resist because the body will not hold the capacity to do things you do not train, and the losses accumulate in silence until they don't.

$Sky turned red over Jagannath Puri. On Maha Vishuba Sankranti. The Odia New Year. April 14, 2026. People called it beautiful. I didn’t. I felt a message. Because Jagannath Puri is not just a temple. It is a living cosmic architecture. A point where Bhuloka, the human world, connects to higher consciousness. For some this may be hard to grasp. This space responds. No birds cross above it. The flag moves against the wind. The shadow never touches on the ground. Call it anomaly. Or call it calibration. So when the sky turns blood red above this exact sacred geometry on the first day of the solar year… You don’t ignore it. You decode it. I went looking. Varahamihira wrote about this. In the Brihat Samhita. He called it Dik-Daha. Burning of the directions. Rakta Varna Akasha. A sky that turns to blood. His reading was clear. Agni rises. Mangal dominates. Mangal is Mars. The planet of war. The force of action. The energy that does not wait for permission. And Maa Kali… Not the Kali of fear. The Kali of Mahakaal. She who destroys what has expired. She who removes what blocks evolution. When Mangal and Kali align, it means one thing. The system is about to be reset. Look around. A Manufactured Energy Crisis is building. Fuel prices. Supply chains. Grid stress. When energy is controlled, movement is controlled. When movement is controlled, thought is controlled. The world is moving toward a reset. And the power centre is moving Eastward. Expect a Stock Market Crash. And then comes the trigger. Pakistan is unstable. But instability alone is not dangerous. Desperation is. A fractured state. A pressured army. A proxy pushed to the edge. History shows… such systems don’t collapse quietly. They create events. India will not choose war. But war will choose India. And this time, an endgame. Red is not just warning. Red is Sindoor. The mark of victory. Operation Sindoor is still ON. Inside Bharat… Structural shifts are coming. And the cosmos already spoke. Through Jagannath. Through Mangal. Through Kali. This is cleansing. Every civilization faces this fire. Most collapse. Few evolve. Bharat has faced it before. Bent. But never broken. So the red sky over Puri was not a coincidence. Because the cosmos does not warn, what it plans to destroy. It warns what it expects to rise. And this time… The signal was not subtle.$

"wait until 5 & 6. At least for me, i'm kind of a gooey, romantic when it comes to all that stuff. That's where the real acting and the real person-on-person moments and the real grit of it comes out." starting with the physical intimacy, and they're really about to dive in deeper even in the real, emotional intimacy. Especially with Ilya, that means so much, cause he's about to take down all of his defenses and just be his most vulnerable, his most honest self with Shane. No more "that means nothing" when deep down, he always felt it, those moments with Shane always meant everything, cause he is fucking in love with this man. And he's about to confess that, even if he already did but this time, Shane will hear it in his language... Cause this needs to be out. The cottage is gonna be the whole turning point of their life I AM NOT OKAY 😭 #heatedrivalry

The past year has seen me have a renaissance, in the truest sense… I won’t go into details now but will at some point before long. What has brought so much happiness to my life and those around me this past year has been my falling back in love with sport. Cycling has, and always will be, my number one. Yet I’d forgotten that I simply love sport, not for results but for the sheer joy of doing it, I’d completely forgotten that the health of my mind is intrinsically connected to the health of my body. I’ve rediscovered the love I had for sport that existed before the world of professional cycling took over in the way it did. I’ve been pushing myself and trying new things this past year, indifferent to the results, just out having fun and at times going deeper than I thought I was capable of anymore. Last week I got on a TT bike for the first time in a decade, Factor Bikes built me a bike, I’ve been looking at it for two years and decided it was time to get fitted, getting back on it felt like going home. Anyway, the long and the short of this is that it’s inspired me to create a club to inspire and be inspired. A community for us to share our love for getting out there and doing it, because I’ve realized that although I spend most of my sporting life on my own I derive the most pleasure when feeling part of something. It’s in its early days, I’ve called it Sporting Club CHPT3 aka SCC3, I’d love you to check it out and join. It’s still in its infancy, but I hope it’s going to grow into something that will inspire you as much as me.

🚨🚨 THIS WEAPON JUST CHANGED WARFARE FOREVER Israel just deployed the Iron Beam in LIVE COMBAT for the first time in history. It's a laser. A literal laser that shoots down missiles and drones out of the sky. Cost per Iron Dome interceptor: $50,000 Cost per Iron Beam shot: $3.50 Three dollars and fifty cents. → It fires at the speed of light — there is no dodging it → It never runs out of ammunition — as long as it has electricity, it fires → It's already integrated into Israel's layered air defense system → It just intercepted incoming projectiles in the middle of a war → Iran fired 5 missile barrages in 7 hours — the Iron Beam didn't flinch This is why the Patriot interceptor crisis doesn't matter anymore. Ukraine burned through 600 Patriot interceptors in 1,460 days. The Iran war burned through 800 in just 3 DAYS. That rate is unsustainable. You can't manufacture interceptors fast enough. But a laser? Unlimited shots. Near-zero cost. Speed of light. Iran spent decades building a missile arsenal designed to overwhelm traditional air defense through sheer volume. Fire 1,000 missiles, hope 50 get through. That strategy just DIED. When a laser costs $3.50 per shot, it doesn't matter if you fire 1,000 or 10,000. Every single one gets burned out of the sky. This isn't just a weapon. It's the end of the missile age.
