wtf is an nft

 

The NRDC has built a new kind of food called an NFT. It's basically just a small tube with bits of plants inside that are designed to attract bugs and other insects. The plants inside the tubes will grow from their roots in wet dirt. Eventually, they'll dissolve, releasing the plants into the ground where they can continue to grow stronger."

So what is this NFT? Basically, it's a miniature garden that you can plant beneath your windowsill! And if you have kids or pets in your house, it would make for easy cleanup — instead of spilling dirt all over your floor or carpet, simply fill up and re-plant when needed! Sounds pretty awesome to me... - The name and logo were inspired by the fact that NFT, when pronounced out loud, sounds sort of like 'wtf'?

- If you do some googling, you'll find out that the NRDC has worked on this concept since 2008. Its research paper can be viewed online here.

So what's more complicated than a garden solution for bugs? How about an electrical one? That's exactly what the NRDC is working on. Sound energy technology researchers at MIT have started developing a system that uses light and sound to control insects. Now you see why I'm publishing this article in March. But in any case, this electrical bug solution would use light and sound to disrupt the reproductive cycle of bugs. In other words, it's designed to interrupt their maturation process and halt the growth of their population.

- The idea behind the research is that insects are attracted to lights at night, so they would be programmed to turn on and off at certain times during the evening (when insects are typically out) — similar to how your Christmas lights go on at night.

- The frequency of the light will be a combination of green, yellow and red wavelengths. These wavelengths have been chosen because they're most attractive to bugs.

- Besides light, the researchers are also working to design different types of sounds. Apparently, flies are more attracted to high-pitched noises (think buzzing), while other bugs are more attracted to low-pitched sounds.

So ultimately, the combination of sound and light will likely be the most effective method for controlling insect populations. We actually already use these frequencies to deter pests in the garden (mosquitoes usually use high frequencies while mice and rats like low ones), so it's cool that we're developing ways to use them in our houses as well!

- The research can be viewed online here. It's being conducted by Chris Tabak at MIT and Eyal de Lara at Harvard. An nft is a type of family feud. It happens when two families have ongoing issues that get worse until someone in one of the families does something so outrageous to cause the other side to retaliate. They're most often based on grudges, and can be one-sided or mutual. The parties in an nft are usually connected by ancestral ties, such as being from the same lineage, clan, political party or tribe; they may also be former friends and current enemies who were once close but had a quarrel that led to an irreparable rift in their relationship. This article will explore what causes these kinds of feuds as well as how they can affect family members on both sides. Causes of nft

Nfts sometimes happen when two families have been in a mostly peaceful co-existence for a long period of time. During these years, members of the families might be friendly with each other, or at least share cordial relations. But over time, some minor situations can cause a buildup of grudges and resentment that eventually boil over into full-scale war. If this happens, it's likely to start out with one person on one side doing something they shouldn't have done; it may be something they did intentionally or unintentionally, but there's usually some kind of instigator who gets the ball rolling. This is known as a "bait.

The instigator is the bait because, from the other side's perspective, he or she has waited long enough to have someone on their team do something to a member of the other side that matches an old grudge that's been stewing for a long time. This will inevitably cause strong emotions and fierce retaliation from the other side. Sometimes it's not as calculated as that, though. An incident on one side might just trigger a cold rage among people on the opposite side who had been holding it in for years.

If an nft gets started with someone intentionally luring another person into a situation they didn't want to be in, they will likely feel regret and grow some sort of conscience afterward.
