Joke Of The Day
No worries
Fresh out of business school, the young man answered a want ad for an accountant. Now, he was being interviewed by a very nervous man who ran a small business that he had started himself.
"I need someone with an accounting degree," the man said. "But mainly, I'm looking for someone to do my worrying for me."
"Excuse me?" the accountant said.
"I worry about a lot of things," the man said. "But I don't want to have to worry about money. Your job will be to take all the money worries off my back."
"I see," the accountant said. "And how much does the job pay?"
"I'll start you at eighty thousand."
"Eighty thousand dollars!" the accountant exclaimed. "How can such a small business afford a sum like that?"
"That," the owner said, "is your first worry."
On This Day
CryotronIn 1957, the cryotron, a superconductive computer switch was announced in a press release by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Developed by Dudley A Buck, the cryotron was the first practical use of superconductivity—the ability of some metals to conduct current with no resistance at a temperature of a few degrees above absolute zero. A fine hair-thickness wire is coiled around a straight wire cooled by liquid helium. Current passes in the straight wire unless halted by the effect of a magnetic field when a current flows in the coil, thus acting like a switch. The cryotron was hailed as a revolutionary device for miniaturizing the room-sized computers of the 1950s. Buck's invention was first recorded in his lab notebook on 15 Dec 1953, and he coined the term “cryotron” in his an entry in Feb 1954.«[Image: in the hand of its inventor, the cryotron, so incredibly small 100 cryotrons could fit in a thimble.] |
