Little one has reached an interesting stage of personal hygiene. She wants to shower instead of taking baths, but can't do it fully by herself.
So i have to poke my head and arms around the shower curtain, soap up her head, rinse her hair without getting water in her eyes, and try not to get myself completely drenched in the process or fling too much water around the bathroom.

Senate Democrats are increasingly concerned that President Donald Trump is considering striking Iran without seeking authorization from Congress
— or even filling them in on his plans.

Sen. Tim Kaine (D-Virginia) is mounting a last-ditch push to force a vote as soon as next week
to restrain Trump from attacking Iran without Congress’s approval.

Other Senate Democrats say the White House has not briefed them on its plans for a potential strike.
And some are warn…

Democrats raise war powers concerns as Trump mulls Iran strike
The pushback follows Trump’s encroachment on almost every congressional prerogative — from taking control of the power of the purse to threatening tariffs.

Full-Gap Superconductivity in BaAs/Ferropnictide Heterostructures
Interfacial interactions often promote the emergence of unusual phenomena in two-dimensional systems, including high-temperature superconductivity. Here, we report the observation of full-gap superconductivity with a maximal spectroscopic temperature up to 26 K in a BaAs monolayer grown on ferropnictide Ba(Fe$_{1-x}$Co$_x$)$_2$As$_2$ (abbreviated as BFCA) epitaxial films. The superconducting gap remains robust even when the thickness of underlying BFCA is reduced to the monolayer limit, in cont…

#ZenBrowser is considering to change the behaviour of windows in the following way:
- Two windows of the same workspace show the exact same tabs.
- Tabs are not lost when closing a window.
- In order to create a new, empty window, you first need to create a new workspace.
Any opinions? I find that quite weird and don't understand the purpose. 🤔

The Hyperbolic Tangent as an Educational Tool for Teaching Variable Acceleration
This paper presents an approximate analytical solution to the Falling Astronaut Problem by means of the hyperbolic tangent, and it explores the educational opportunities presented by this technique. The author's previous paper presented a function for time in terms of position t(x) that modeled the motion of an astronaut as she falls from an arbitrary height to the surface of a spherical planet with no air resistance, but an exact analytical function for position in terms of time x(t) was not f…

Thermal conductivity minimum with thickness in ultrathin films
The thermal properties of solids under nanoscale confinement are currently not understood at the atomic level. Recent numerical studies have highlighted the presence of a minimum in the thermal conductivity as a function of thickness for ultrathin films at a thickness about 1-2 nm, which cannot be described by existing theories. We develop a theoretical description of thin films which predicts a new physical law for heat transfer at the nanoscale. In particular, due to the strong redistribution…
