Ondsel is shutting down its operation. The company couldn't find a product-market fit before it ran out of funding.

Most team members, including myself, are likely to continue contributing to @FreeCAD in some way.

I just realized I never uploaded this here. From 2020, a full 4K 3D remake of the Windows 3.0 CHESS.BMP wallpaper done entirely in Blender (except the floor which was Inkscape)

Forget Electronics: Here Come “Orbitronics”

Electronic devices like phones, tablets, and laptops can contribute to the worldwide problem of electronic waste, or e-waste. While experts are working to make these devices more environmentally friendly, a new advancement at the fundamental level of the electron could provide a much-needed solution. Enter “Orbitronics.”

Researchers at the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) in Switzerland and the Max Planck Institutes in Germany have found a way to harness a property of electrons known as “orbital angular momentum,” which could open the door to a whole new type of technology known as “orbitronics.” This result, which was achieved using experiments conducted at the Swiss Light Source (SLS) and was published in Nature Physics, could help make electronic devices of the future more environmentally friendly.

With health inevitably absorbing a larger share of GDP, keeping the overall current public spending share roughly flat is not going to end austerity, or reduce poverty.
