William H. Nichols Medal

The William H. Nichols Medal is awarded annually for original research in chemistry. Nominees must have made a "significant and original contribution in any field of chemistry" during the five years preceding the presentation date. The medallist receives a gold medal, a bronze replica and $5000.[1] The award was established in 1902 by the New York Section of the American Chemical Society (ACS) through a gift from chemist and businessman William H. Nichols.[2] It was the first award to be approved by the ACS. The medal was first awarded in 1903.[1]

gollark: If identities are global, I think it would *also* be good to make it so your client cryptographically signs all your outgoing messages, so servers can't fake you engaging in beeoidal activity.
gollark: A possible issue would be locking up your TCP connection or whatever with big downloads of images, but I guess you'd want a sensible way to offload those *anyway*.
gollark: I think it would probably make sense to make it so that your identity server serves your profile picture, but servers you chat in can cache it for clients and serve it over the chat connection on demand.
gollark: I was envisioning a somewhat more IRC-like thing where you commune directly with each server you want to join.
gollark: That would possibly expose your IP to it which might be bad.
