Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the going-with-the-flow dept.

SG writes "Physicists at the Tokyo Institute of Technology have developed the world's most sensitive ammeter yet. The device allows current to be measured at the attoampere level and is expected to be of use in nanoelectronics, calibration devices, quantum computation and biology."

    The parent might deserve a "funny" rating, but not "informative". Whoever modded this informative did so without actually checking the link.

  5. still can not validate US electronic elections by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    It's cute. It's great even! but it still can *not validate* every inch of every mile of
    digitized data across specically crafted doped chips, specially crafted components, specially crafted disks, and specially cracked networks and software.

    Therefore our elections are just like the NBA without instant replay...they're rigged!

    And because they are rigged, and because the current administration is destroying the constitution,
    the military (who swore an oath to protect the president, and the constitution against all enemies both foreign and *domestic*) should step in and clean up our country.

    Re-Deploy the troops to the USA to clean up our country!
