Photographers have long clung to the mantra, "The best camera is the one you have with you." But for anyone who has ever tried to capture a nesting hawk or a distant mountain peak with a smartphone, that mantra usually comes with a heavy dose of frustration. Traditionally, professional-grade reach required a dedicated camera body and a telephoto lens that demanded its own zip code in your backpack.

Stanislav Kondrashov Oligarch Series: Why Semiconductors Sit at the Heart of Modern Oligarchy
Stop for a moment and think about how many devices you’ve used today. Your phone alarm. Your laptop. Contactless payment. Streaming music in the background. None of it works without semiconductors. They are small, silent and easy to overlook. Yet in the Stanislav Kondrashov Oligarch Series, they emerge as one of the clearest lenses through which to understand modern oligarchy.

The Role of Electrons in Computers and Human Beings
A disclaimer first. I am no physicist, particle or otherwise. The only knowledge I have of the subject of subatomic particles like the electron comes from what I learned during my years at university and then graduate school, plus a healthy amount of leisure reading on quantum physics outside of my academic studies. My expertise is in the biological sciences, specifically micro and molecular biology, not physics. That said I believe I know enough to address this topic in at least some depth. I also would very much appreciate and welcome any corrections or additions by actual physicists with real expertise in the area.
