Borrowing pfp

Aave, formerly known as ETHLend, is a decentralized, non-custodial lending protocol that allows you to deposit assets into liquidity pools to earn returns and borrow assets at a flat, fixed interest rate. It was launched in 2017 by Stani Kulechov after a $17.8 million initial coin offering (ICO). Aave also allows you to borrow without collateral in a short period of time — flash loans.

Borrowing pfp

The decentralized protocol manages debt by ensuring that all loans (except instant loans) on the platform are overcollateralized. This means that the value of the collateral must be greater than the loan itself. If the value of a user’s collateral falls below a certain threshold, it is automatically liquidated to pay off part of the debt. This ensures that there is always enough liquidity in the system.

Bunny Girl pfp

Sakuta Azusagawa, a high school nobody, never expected to find a bunny girl in the library. What's more, the girl he meets isn't just anyone-she's a former actress and popular upperclassman-or at least she was, until, somehow, she disappeared from everyone's view. Now, Sakuta is the only one who can see her or even remember that she existed. Perhaps going unnoticed is just a symptom of puberty.—Funimation

Extensively marketed and widely anticipated, the game broke industry sales records and became the fastest-selling entertainment product in history, earning $800 million in its first day and $1 billion in its first three days. It received critical acclaim, with praise directed at its multiple-protagonist design, open world, presentation and gameplay. However, its depiction of violence and women caused controversies.

Dmitri Ivanovich Mendeleev ForMemRS (sometimes romanized as Mendeleyev, Mendeleiev, or Mendeleef; English: /ˌmɛndəlˈeɪəf/ MEN-dəl-AY-əf; Russian: Дмитрий Иванович Менделеев, romanized: Dmitriy Ivanovich Mendeleyev,[a] IPA: [ˈdmʲitrʲɪj ɪˈvanəvʲɪtɕ mʲɪnʲdʲɪˈlʲejɪf] ⓘ; 8 February [O.S. 27 January] 1834 – 2 February [O.S. 20 January] 1907) was a Russian chemist and inventor. He is best known for formulating the Periodic Law and creating a version of the periodic table of elements. He used the Periodic Law not only to correct the then-accepted properties of some known elements, such as the valence and atomic weight of uranium, but also to predict the properties of three elements that were yet to be discovered (germanium, gallium and scandium).

Archimedes of Syracuse[a] (/ˌɑːrkɪˈmiːdiːz/ AR-kim-EE-deez; c. 287 – c. 212 BC) was an Ancient Greek mathematician, physicist, engineer, astronomer, and inventor from the ancient city of Syracuse in Sicily. Although few details of his life are known, he is regarded as one of the leading scientists in classical antiquity. Considered the greatest mathematician of ancient history, and one of the greatest of all time, Archimedes anticipated modern calculus and analysis by applying the concept of the infinitely small and the method of exhaustion to derive and rigorously prove a range of geometrical theorems. These include the area of a circle, the surface area and volume of a sphere, the area of an ellipse, the area under a parabola, the volume of a segment of a paraboloid of revolution, the volume of a segment of a hyperboloid of revolution, and the area of a spiral.

Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz or Leibnitz[a] (1 July 1646 [O.S. 21 June] – 14 November 1716) was a German polymath active as a mathematician, philosopher, scientist and diplomat who is disputed with Sir Isaac Newton to have invented calculus in addition to many other branches of mathematics, such as binary arithmetic, and statistics. Leibniz has been called the "last universal genius" due to his knowledge and skills in different fields and because such people became much less common after his lifetime with the coming of the Industrial Revolution and the spread of specialized labor.[15] He is a prominent figure in both the history of philosophy and the history of mathematics. He wrote works on philosophy, theology, ethics, politics, law, history, philology, games, music, and other studies. Leibniz also made major contributions to physics and technology, and anticipated notions that surfaced much later in probability theory, biology, medicine, geology, psychology, linguistics and computer science.

Tajikistan pfp

Tajikistan, landlocked country lying in the heart of Central Asia. It is bordered by Kyrgyzstan on the north, China on the east, Afghanistan on the south, and Uzbekistan on the west and northwest. Tajikistan includes the Gorno-Badakhshan (“Mountain Badakhshan”) autonomous region, with its capital at Khorugh (Khorog). Tajikistan encompasses the smallest amount of land among the five Central Asian states, but in terms of elevation it surpasses them all, enclosing more and higher mountains than any other country in the region. Tajikistan was a constituent (union) republic of the Soviet Union from 1929 until its independence in 1991. The capital is Dushanbe.

Alexander Column in the Palace Square weighs 613 tonnes. It stands under its own weight and took less than 2 hours to get installed. The Column was put in the square in 1834 to commemorate Russia’s victory over Napoleon and was purposefully designed to be taller than the Vendôme Column in Paris. This is the world’s tallest monument among those out of solid granite and third tallest victory column. The column shaft is the tallest and heaviest solid block ever installed as a column or an obelisk and one of the biggest monoliths ever displaced by people (the fifth biggest of all times and the second biggest in modern age – after the Thunder Stone under the Bronze Horseman).

Drainage and soils The dense river network that drains the republic includes two large swift rivers, the upper courses of the Syr Darya and the Amu Darya, together with their tributaries, notably the Vakhsh and Kofarnihon. The Amu Darya is formed by the confluence of the Panj and Vakhsh rivers; the Panj forms much of the republic’s southern boundary. Most of the rivers flow east to west and eventually drain into the Aral Sea basin. The rivers have two high-water periods each year: in the spring, when rains fall and mountain snows melt, and in the summer, when the glaciers begin to melt. The summer flow is particularly helpful for irrigation purposes.

The city has its own beach next to the Peter and Paul fortress. Often as popular in winter as it is in summer thanks to the presence of “walruses” (those that believe in the health effects of very cold water), we’d recommend wearing a wetsuit!

I would like to see a peaceful sky, but this is by definition impossible, since a huge hot ball in the sky (the Sun - a star) torpedoes countless amounts of radiation and dangerous elements onto the Earth.
