If distilled water is non-conductive, why do extreme overclockers need to worry about condensation?
Extreme overclocking involves cooling a CPU to subzero temperatures using an air conditioner, dry ice or liquid nitrogen. This causes the surrounding air to cool down, forming droplets on the CPU, motherboard and heat sink. Overclockers prevent droplets from accumulating on the motherboard using petroleum jelly or some sort of absorbent insulating material. ... read full post

Applied Physics: I have a problem with my wind wheel.
All blades have the same size, 36cm long, aerodynamically well shaped. But. The first weighs 120g, the second 125g… And the third one 210g… This is a small problem. So what are my options now? Making a new blade would be the last option, but do I have any other options?

It's Official, Antimatter Falls Down in Gravity, Not Up
https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-023-03043-0Since the discovery of antimatter decades ago, particle physicists have wondered if these particles were repulsed by gravity. Einstein predicted that despite having opposite charges to its regular matter counterparts, antimatter should still behave like matter does concerning gravity. This has been tricky to confirm experimentally since it's hard to make enough antimatter to observe its behavior. Particle physicists have finally pulled it off, using the ALPHA-g experiment at CERN, generating antihydrogen atoms and then dropping them in a 3-meter tall vertical shaft. ... read full post
