Etymology
Melissic acid gets its name from the Greek word melissa meaning bee, since it was found in beeswax.
Synthesis
n-Triacontanoic acid was synthesized by Bleyberg and Ulrich (1931) and by G.M. Robinson.[1]
Self-assembly
Triacontanoic acid and triacontanamide (CH3(CH2)28-CONHI) can be self-assembled.[2]
gollark: They probably (try and) detect VMs, too, because only !!!!!EVIL CHEATERS!!!!! need VMs.
gollark: Which is very annoying, because apart from the privacy (it can read basically any data and is designed so that you cannot know/see what it does) and security (they could have exploits) implications, it breaks stuff like WINE.
gollark: As I said, lots of anticheat things run in the kernel already.
gollark: Most anticheat things run with ridiculously high permissions, but this one runs *constantly* and apparently does cause slowdowns in other games.
gollark: They do tend to, at least, use tons of RAM because Java Edition is increasingly terribly programmed.
