UV Community · South Korea’s Vaping Culture: Innovation, Aesthetics, and the Pursuit of "K-Vape" CoolHey UVers! Still have interests in the Asian vaping culture? Our 5th station of vaping culture exploration will chase clouds from Seoul’s neon-lit Hongdae streets to Busan’s coastal cafes. Let’s unpack South Korea’s vaping scene—a mix of tech obsession, K-beauty-level aesthetics, and a Jangnan (passionate) community that thrives under strict regulations. 🇰🇷 1. Regulatory Tightrope South Korea has adopted stricter regulations on e-cigarettes, especially in response to rising youth us...

#Dennis #Gaitsgory has dedicated the past 30 years to proving the #geometric #Langlands #conjecture.
Over the decades, he and his collaborators have built an extensive body of work, forming the foundation of the new proof.
Although the geometric Langlands program is highly abstract, it forges deep connections between different mathematical structures
and has the potential to drive breakthroughs in theoretical physics, number theory, and even quantum computing.
The #Breakthrough #Prize was established in 2012 by Sergey Brin (Google), Mark Zuckerberg (Facebook), and others to recognize outstanding researchers for their groundbreaking discoveries.
It is awarded in the fields of life sciences, physics, and mathematics.
In 2016, the Breakthrough Prize in Life Sciences was awarded to #Svante #Pääbo from the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Leipzig,
and in 2022, to #Anthony #Hyman from the Max Planck Institute for Molecular Cell Biology and Genetics in Dresden.

Ok, I want to offer a #prize/ #reward for something I need doing.
Used to be I'd get Walmart or Amazon gift cards, but those - Amazon especially - are shit and I don't wanna give Bozo any more money.
What are some "good" (#FairWage , good #DEI, #lgbt+ policies) retail chains that have adequate coverage in most #urban areas or online in North America? Groceries, books, something else?
Need options for #US and #Canada (or presence in both or online).

Thank you J+ Art Awards and the #prize judges for nominating How to Touch a Dragonfly. It’s an honour to be considered for this inaugural #ecology focussed #art #award.
How To Touch a Dragonfly presents a reinterpretation of a #dragonfly experience through sound and animation within a dome structure modeled after the creature's eyes.
Herbert Kroemer, Nobel winner who developed laser tech, dies at 95
#Herbert #Kroemer, a Nobel Prize-winning physicist who spearheaded the development of a new kind of semiconductor, leading to Information Age advances at the heart of everything from bar-code scanners, CD players and cellphones to satellite communications and fiber-optic networks, died March 8 at 95.
His death was announced by the University of California at Santa Barbara ( #UCSB ), where he had been on the faculty for nearly 50 years.
A statement from the school’s chancellor, Henry T. Yang, did not say where or how he died but credited Dr. Kroemer with “transforming UC Santa Barbara into a leader in engineering and #materials #science.”
A German-born researcher with a thick white beard and heavy skepticism of scientific authority, Dr. Kroemer was awarded a share of the #Nobel #Prize in #physics in 2000 for developing #semiconductor #heterostructures, layered devices that proved foundational to advanced lasers and high-speed transistors.
He shared his half of the prize with the Russian physicist Zhores Alferov, who worked independently but in parallel to develop the devices; the other half went to Jack Kilby, a researcher at Texas Instruments who played a central role in the invention of the integrated circuit, or microchip
