That year a concord took off from the Canary Islands and what happened has not happened again

by

After more than 50 years of silence imposed by the sonic stamps, the United States has decided open again the heavens on the supersonic flight on the mainland. The Executive order Signed by Trump revokes the 1973 regulations that prohibited these operations on American soil, then motivated by citizen complaints to the deafening roller generated by the planes to overcome the sound barrier, an acoustic impact of up to 110 decibels. That same year, a concord arrived on the island of Gran Canaria for Make history. Concorde in the Canary Islands. On June 30, 1973, Spain was part of one of the scientific experiments more unusual and ambitious never undertaken to study the sun: a supersonic flight of the concord that pursued the Shadow of a solar eclipse total about Africa. The geographical location of the Canary Islands, perfectly aligned with The eclipse trajectoryallowed the country to be integrated into an international operation led by scientists from the United States, France and the United Kingdom, with the logistics collaboration of the Spanish Air Force. That day, the prototype of the Concorde, even without entering into commercial service, took off from Gran Canaria after landing on June 27 with the island covered by Calima. Its objective was not to transport passengers, but to become a flying observatory capable of staying inside the lunar umbra for a record time. Supersonic laboratory. The mission, developed and coordinated from Toulouse, transformed the Concorde 001 in A scientific platform unprecedented. To do this, the aircraft fuselage was modified drilling its roof and installing quartz crystals that allow the cameras to capture without distortions the infrared emissions of the sun from an altitude of More than 17,000 meters. Although the British initially opposed the aircraft, Air France accepted their temporary conversion enthusiastically In Air Laboratory. Inside the plane there were hardly any seats: scientists had to be held as they could during the maneuvers, in a small space and adapted to the minimum indispensable for the observations. The rudimentary preparation (including cleaning the windows manually before the flight) contrasted with The magnitude of the challenge scientist they faced: record from the air phenomena impossible to see from the earth’s surface due to atmospheric distortion. From Gran Canaria to eclipse. Thus, that June 30, 1973, the team of scientists aboard the prototype of the Concorde made one of the most spectacular exploits in the history of observational astronomy: they followed the shadow of a total solar eclipse on Africa during 74 uninterrupted minutesthanks to the ability of the plane to fly more than double the speed of sound. Don LiebenbergAmerican physicist and organizer of the experiment, was one of the seven investigators on board that since that altitude of 17,000 meters they observed the curvature of the Earth and captured Images of the solar crownthe critical region of the Sun whose emissions can affect from satellites to electrical networks on Earth. The path of the entire eclipse The problem. Equipped with infrared cameras installed on carries carved on the roof of the plane, the concorde 001 took off from the island and crossed the sahara behind the lunar umbra, achieving prolonged observations Never before. The problem? That although scientific results, such as First oscillation indication Five minutes at the intensity of the crown, they were technically impressive, its impact was limited: much of the material remains without digitizing and no significant conclusion was published. Concord 001 on display A feat that exceeded the results. As we said, despite the spectacular images and the technical audacity of the mission, the scientific legacy of the Concorde flight It was discreet. Most of the data, stored in hundreds of 35 mm film rolls, It was never digitized Due to lack of resources, and the analyzes were never formally completed. The flight, however, left an indelible mark on the collective memory of astronomers and fans of space exploration. Liebenberg himself, today attached professor at Clemsson, He recalled in National Geographic The moment when the concord penetrated the shadow of the moon A Mach 2.2 and darkness wrapped the sky in broad daylight. Despite the low immediate scientific profitability, the experiment served as a model for future missions and demonstrated the potential of supersonic flights in solar investigations, a field that still It is still active half a century later. Historical milestone Although the concord would return to Visit Spain In 1977 (already in commercial service and under sponsorship of El Corte Inglés), its 1973 scale in the Canary Islands was much more transcendent. Not only represented the first operational use of the plane for an international scientific mission, but consolidated Spain as relevant actor in solar research and in European aerospace logistics. That flight, often forgotten by the general public, symbolizes an era of bold experimentation, where the borders between aviation, astronomy and geopolitics are They blur at the speed of sound. Broking the myth. If you want also, that was a feat of international collaboration, technical innovation and scientific audacity that opened a door that today Cross again With new tools. For Liebenberg, the eclipse of 1973 was not only an experiment, but A sensory experience Unforgettable: absolute darkness to Mach 2, the vision of the curved horizon, the emotion shared by a handful of researchers determined to run after the shadow of the moon. Half a century later, the concord with perforated roof and clean windows remains as a testimony that, during more than a fleeting moment, science reached the eclipse and Spain was there To see it.

Netflix has left the fever by the Korean series: they are drowning in their own money

by

Although they have not yet arrived in the mainstream As they have done, for example, The Turkish soapsKorean fictions are followed by millions of people worldwide and have transcended the borders of Asian countries. Netflix is ​​to blameand has led to South Korea to be known for much more diverse and varied productions than the one that remains its greatest success, ‘the squid game’. However, Netflix machinery He also has his dark side and has been about to crack the solid bases of the genre. Korean explosion. In recent years, Korean or K-Drams fictions have experienced unprecedented growth. Netflix has been a key actor in this phenomenon, positioning the South Korean content as The second most watched globallyonly behind American productions. Since 2023, K-Drams are between 8% and 9% of the total visualization hours in Netflix, highlighting titles such as ‘The Squid’s game’, but also ‘The Queen of Tears’, ‘Crash Landing on You’ or ‘Love at the door next door.’ Cloud expenses. Netflix investment in Korean products It is very important: More than half of the popular Korean titles on the platform are originals of Netflix herself, and about a third are exclusive, many of them made in collaboration with local studies. However, The costs have shot: At present, the average price per episode is about $ 700,000, arriving in some cases, such as ‘the squid game’, to exceed two million dollars per episode, more than double what they cost in 2020, and much more than they cost before the arrival of Netflix (about 200,000 dollars). Success series such as ‘If life gives you mandarins’ cost more than 40 million dollars per season. In Xataka Netflix’s best Korean series (because not everything is ‘the squid game’) Fall in production. The consequences that Netflix, a powerful platform and with financial muscle, has multiplied costs to generate luxurious and interesting productions for the international public are multiple. On the one hand, production has fallen, especially the one that comes from medium -sized companies and produced by traditional Korean channels: From 141 in 2022 to 123 in 2023 already just 100 in 2024. A pressure has also been generated so that the series are more expensive, which has multiplied the number of blockbustersbut it has reduced the average productions. The superstars. The architects of the Korean series know that the deals are often the authentic causing causes a series to succeed, which leads to a good part of the budgets to be invested in the protagonists, which can come to charge around 500,000 dollars per episode. One of the decisions that Netflix has taken to stop is climbing in the series budgets that can make the industry crackimitate the salaries of the actorswhich has set 400 million WON (just under $ 300,000) per episode. {“Videid”: “x850eq5”, “Autoplay”: false, “Title”: “The game of the squid”, “Tag”: “The game of the squid”, “Duration”: “476”} Goodbye to risk. The Korean fiction industry is at a key moment, where it is continually discussed between profitability and quality. The increase in budgets has raised expectations on the series, but has also increased financial risk, to the point that, unlike the situation before the arrival of Netflix, The series need to be global successes To recover the investment. This entails an added danger: to greater financial risk, less taste for risk, more will tend to be conservative, to embrace proven success formulas. What can make the Korean series lose one of their indisputable strengths for the global public: the ability to surprise. Has Netflix charged the Korean fiction industry? Of course, it has immersed it in a dynamic of inflated budgets and the need for show that at the moment, it is affecting medium, authentic mortar productions that give solidity to the industry with volume and stability. Korea has a clear benchmark to not look for mistakes: Hollywood, plunged into a creative crisis and an elephantiasis in the productions that question its near future. For now, the South Korean industry has a margin to react. If Netflix allows it.

Almost all startups are dedicating themselves to it

by

If you are a startup in the US and look for financing, it is almost mandatory And combinator. This accelerator has become a unique barometer of the technology industry, and what the candidates present there is a clear indication of where technological innovation moves. And now it moves towards the AI agents… and above all, towards AI in any sense. AI agents everywhere. Of the 144 startups that were part of the 2025 spring batch in and Combinator (YC), 67 were recorded in the accelerator database Within the group of “AI agents”. That means that almost 50% of the candidates work in one way or another in this type of technology, and demonstrates that technological startups in the US see this specific segment of AI as the most promising in the short (and perhaps long) term. Source: pitchbook Climbing to the car. As they point out In pitchbookthe evolution of the candidates that were presented to each of the annual editions of and Combinator (one per station) has been clear, and there are more and more that focus on developing agents of particular AI and in the AI ​​in general to solve a problem. In the last 2024 winter edition of the 260 startups that were presented, more than half were or developing an AI solution or using it for their projects. Diversity Tech, dep Artificial intelligence sweeps everything, and that is also true for those who seek to create new successful companies. Previous trends such as mobile applications, social networks or cloud services pass to the background or are already only components of the central focus, which is AI. Technological diversity, betting on other ways of solving problems, seems to be reduced to the minimum expression: everything can be (should it?) Resolve with artificial intelligence. Now is AI, before it was something else. And Combinator, created in 2005, soon became an oracle of technological investors. If something left there, their options to succeed were older. The trends followed, and while in the first decade of the millennium the startups bet on mobile applications and social networks (Dropbox and Airbnb left there at that time), in the last decade the ones that triumphed were Startups of Fintech, Health and B2B (stripe, doordash). New bubble in view? The expectations generated by AI are even greater than those generated in the past with mobiles and before with the Internet. The bubble of the Puntocom caused a huge correction in the market, but at that time what is happening in this happened: all startups wanted to point to the Internet (and then to mobiles) because they understood that these technologies could solve many problems. The reality is that they ended up transforming our lives, but in many cases these projects failed because they were not solutions to real problems, but solutions to a problem that did not even exist. The question is with this technology something similar will happen. And of course it is inevitable to talk about a potential bubble of AI. Many illustrious names. In addition to those mentioned, Twitch (which was born as Justin.TV), Coinbase, Cruise, Instacart, Reddit, or Helion Energy They took their first steps in and Combinator. One of the last examples is especially notable: Scale AI left and combinator in 2016, and a few hours ago an investment of 13,000 million by Meta has been announced, which in addition has signed its founder, Alexandr Wang. The startup success rate is Very modestbut the “durability” of those that leave YC is much higher than the average: more than 50% of the companies that leave there They are still alive After 10 years, compared to 30% usual in other environments. But that is not necessarily bad. As Andy McLoughlin, of the Uncork Capital investment company, indicated every year the same thing usually happens and “people complain that YC is oversatured with an X technology, but everything now is AI: all the companies in which we invest, which we look for and that it is going through yc is using AI, and the question is if they are good or if they are JOD ****** THE PROBLEM OF THE VALACIONES TRIBUTED. The AI ​​fever has done these startups quickly lift spectacular rounds even without having visible product. YC is a good example of this, and has become an elite event for startups, because there they usually get more financing than in any other event. These emerging companies – pequeñas and unknown – have initial assessments of about 70 million dollars, a spectacular amount for projects that always have a complicated future. Some investors even refuse to “play that game.” Others think otherwise and know that although many can fail, others end up having a spectacular success and it is worth investing “more expensive.” Image | And combinator In Xataka | Soon it will not matter who has the most advanced AI model: the authentic battle will be fought by AI agents

15 years ago, diesel got the best record in the history of Le Mans

by

In a few hours they will start 24 hours from Le Mans. A year ago, in Xataka We had the opportunity to be there. I remember the expectation of the minutes before. We arrived with hours of advance but in Le Mans you breathe nervousness from the early morning. Those nerves that cause a smile contained halfway between illusion and fear. I wasn’t there 25 years ago But I’m sure something very similar was lived. The 2000 race served to collect the new millennium with open arms. What we did not know is that one of the most dominant eras in the history of the competition was beginning. One that starred Audi. One that began, like all, with a victory but that completely changed the idea of ​​understanding Le Mans. One that began with the smell of gasoline and ended with the smell of diesel. The golden years of Audi in Le Mans Although it was in 2000 when Audi won for the first time in Le Mans, the previous year he had already served the company of the four hoops to take temperature with the most famous resistance race in the world. In 1999, BMW had managed to impose itself as the last winner before the millennium change. No one predicted that during the next 18 editions a team got the victory in thirteen of them. And of these, nine joined consecutively. For the year 2000, Audi appeared again with his R8. He did it with a 3.6 -liter V8 engine with which they had already tried luck the previous year but made changes in the transmission. From the beginning it was confirmed that the three Audi were going to have very few rivals. Courage, Oreca, Dams and Panoz were not rivals for some Germans who added 368 laps with the unit piloted by Frank Biela, Tom Kristen and Emanuele Pirro. Audi copied the podium and his third unit added 368 laps. To understand the domain, the fourth classified was the C52 Courage that mounted Peugoet motor and only managed to add 344 turns. The distance was sidereal and would be certified in later years. Between 2000 and 2008, Audi scored each and every one of the victories of its LMP900 and, later, LMP1. Of the 24 possible drawers of the podium, Audi copied 19 of them with his official team or a private team that mounted any of his audi r8. The domain was overwhelming as we see but after three years dominating as an official team, the Germans left the competition and the Audi that were put in the starting line did it with private equipment. The situation was repeated between 2003 and 2005. But in 2006, the thing changed. Audi showed his interest again in the queen category of Le Mans but did it with surprise. He arrived with a diesel engine to show that fuel efficiency had no rival. The strategy was simple: less consumption involved less reposses and, therefore, longer on track. A diesel record And the strategy worked. In 2006Audi appeared at the starting line Of the 24 hours of Le Mans with two cars instead of the usual three to focus efforts. However, he managed to occupy two places of the podium, adding a 1-3 to his record and growing his private prustle account between 2000 and 2008. The car mounted a supercharged V12 with two turbocharger that could generate a maximum of 659 hp. According to its initial calculations, without shocks, the Audi R10 TDI He could take two more turns to the circuit of the pan than his predecessor before reproducing. That implied that he could travel 26 more kilometers before stopping. Although there had been previous attempts, that was the first year in which a car that used diesel fuel was made with the victory. It would not be the last because Audi repeated Victoria in 2007 and 2008. However, the fence was narrowed and in 2007 Peugeot also appeared in the output line with a diesel engine. In this case a Peugeot 908 HDI FAP that repeated the structure of the German: 5.5 -liter V12 engine and supercharged with two turbos. That year, the Peugeot went to 700 hp. In spite of everything, in 2007 Audi dominated again and put ten laps away to Peugeot. But the following year the competition matched so much that Audi and Peugeot added both 381 laps. However, the best would come. In 2009, Peugeot He finally managed to get the victory and did it with sufficiency, with the end of six laps above the Audi. A year later, the Germans would compensate getting one of the most spectacular records in history. In 2010, Audi returned to the three seats of the podium, already without Peugeot in the competition. The domain was so overwhelming that the first LMP1 No Audi It was a oreca that ended 26 laps from the winner. It was not for less, Mike Rocknfeller, Timo Bernhard and Romain Dumas managed to complete the cross circuit 397. They matched the number of turns achieved by Helmut Marko and Gijs van Lennep with a Porsche 917K In 1971 but there was a small difference. In the 70s, the circuit measured 13.47 kilometers, while in 2010 it had lengthened 13.63 kilometers. Those almost 200 meters apart, return to turn, made, since then, Audi shows the record of distance covered in the 24 hours of Le Manswith 5,410,713 km. The record was achieved with the Audi R15 TDI Plus. The car then rode an engine V10 5.5 -liter TDI that gave a maximum of 600 hp. It was an evolution of the previous year and served to find a winning path that extended until 2014, with change to hybridization along the way. The second half of the past decade became dominated by Porsche and Toyota (with that victory of Fernando Alonso included). The year 2014 closed, therefore, Audi’s most glorious story with Le Mans.

This is how the creator of the most complex machine on the planet supports the US pressure

In 2022 sales of ASML In China they amounted to 2.9 billion euros, which represented 13.8% of its annual sales. At that time Taiwan was a more important market for this company than China. In fact, in 2023 the clients of the island bought this manufacturer lithography equipment For a total value of 8,100 million euros, while its Chinese clients disbursed 7.3 billion euros. And, curiously, in 2024 China consolidated as the largest market for ASML with total sales of 10.2 billion euros. This company of the Netherlands cannot sell its most advanced equipment to its Chinese clients, such as the machines of extreme ultraviolet lithography (UVE) or deep ultraviolet (UVP), but at the moment you can give them the solutions that allow producing chips with mature integration technologies. These are the semiconductors that are mostly used in cars, appliances or electronic devices, among other products, and usually occur in nodes of 28 nm or less advanced. ASML needs China. And China still needs Asml Christophe Fouquet, the general director of ASML, has a huge challenge ahead. Like his predecessor at the head of this Dutch company, Peter Wennink, he has the obligation to defend the interests of his company. And currently the tension held by the US and China does not make it easy. The sanctions that They have deployed US and the Netherlands They prevent Asml selling Your most advanced lithography teams To its Chinese clients. And neither can some maintenance and after -sales services services provide. In the Netherlands 2024 will be remembered as the year in which the strap between ASML and the Dutch government reached its maximum expression. Christophe Fouquet He is convinced about what US will continue to put pressure on its partners to even more harden the sanctions that seek to stop the development of the Chinese industry of the integrated circuits. In fact, according to the British weekly The Economistthis executive argues that European politicians and regulators should do more to help their company. In 2024 China was consolidated as the largest Asml market with total sales of 10.2 billion euros Anyway, one of the figures in which we have repaired a few lines above gives us a very accurate clue about how ASML is dealing with prohibitions from the US and endorsed by the Netherlands government that could greatly degrade their business. As we have seen, in 2024 China was consolidated as its largest market with total sales of 10,200 million euros. This success is because Chinese manufacturers of integrated circuits have bought A ASML many suitable photolithography equipment to produce mature semiconductors. This Dutch company has much more advanced chips manufacturing machines, such as the UVE and UVP lithography equipment that I have mentioned a few lines above. And also The very complex High Opening Machine which has been designed to optimize the production of integrated circuits Below the 2 nm. As we have seen, ASML cannot deliver these teams to its Chinese clients, but, and this is a very important fact, has the effective monopoly of Uve and Uve Machines of Haute Opening. No other company has the necessary resources to produce such complex equipment. Currently TSMC, Intel, Samsung, Globalfoundries, Micron Technology and Sk Hynix are well building new chips manufacturing plants, they are well expanding some of those they have in operation. In any case, they all have something in common: they are buying the UVE and UVP equipment of ASML. And, in addition, TSMC, Intel and Samsung presumably will acquire for the next three years a large number of UVE Machines of Haute Opening. It is evident that even in the complicated current situation it is difficult to lie to ASML. For now Your business in China enduresand will continue to do it at least until the moment when Chinese lithography manufacturers have their own UVE machines. And outside China Asml has no competition if we stick to its Porpholio of UVE machines. This is your true strength.

In just three weeks we have seen several warm episodes and what is more, some experts already foresee the arrival of the first heat wave of the year. However, these temperatures that await us are not the only heat that Meteorologists interest. And there are good reasons behind. A very hot Mediterranean. The Mediterranean Sea is reaching temperatures that we had not seen in at least four years and considerably higher than what would correspond during these days of the year. The Data offered by SOCIB (Observation and coastal prediction system of the Balearic Islands) indicate that the temperature is above not only the average of the temperatures observed at this time in the period 1982-2015, it would also be above the 90th percentile of the observations and the data recorded in recent years. According to the socib data compiled on June 12, on average, the surface of the sea presents a thermal anomaly of 2.26º Celsius above what on average would be at this time during. Different areas, a similar story. The situation is especially striking in the Western Mediterranean, where thermal anomaly reaches 2.65º. In the surroundings of the Balearic Islands the sea surface is located at an average of 3º above the average, with the waters of the National Park of the Cabrera archipelago registering an anomaly of 3.18º. Although in the Eastern Mediterranean the thermal anomaly is lower in absolute terms (1.9º), it also exceeds the 90th percentile of the data compiled at these dates between 1982 and 2015. Something similar occurs in the sea of ​​Alborán, one of the few areas of the Western Mediterranean than with a lower growth than 2º (1.64º specifically), but also above the percentile. What is happening? According to Explain the meteorologist Duncan Wingen in Meteoredthere are three factors that have taken us here. In the first place, the absence of winding wind, a “natural refrigerator” that cool the sea facilitating the evaporation of surface water and the outcrop of the coldest and most deep waters. Second, the stability caused by subtropical anticyclones that have dragged warm air masses and left clear skies. Finally, it should also be taken into account where we came from: according to the Socib datain recent years the surface temperature of the Mediterranean has been almost constantly above the average. In fact, the last time temperatures were seen below this average was in April 2022. The forecasts. The situation seems to change, at least not better. According to the models From the European Center for Middle Term Meteorological forecasts (ECMWF), towards next Wednesday, a part of the central Mediterranean near Naples could show thermal anomalies between 4.5º and 5º. A significant part of the Central Mediterranean and the Alborán Sea for their part could show anomalies above 3.5º. The forecasts still get worse if we advance until Monday 23: ECMWF models calculate that broad areas of the Western Mediterranean could present thermal anomalies of between 5th and 5.5º. Towards that weekend the bulk of thermal anomaly could move to the east. It could be then when normality would return to the Western Mediterranean, even with a slight cold anomaly in areas near the coast. It should be noted that these are medium -term forecasts so uncertainty must be considered. Why does the Mediterranean matter so much. The question of why meteorologists are interested so much for the temperature on the high seas has to do with the fact that it affects what happens on the mainland. High maritime temperatures make warm and humid air rise in the atmosphere. This favors the appearance of storms with greater destructive capacity. Surely the best example of this we will find the hurricanes but the Mediterranean also has examples Beyond the appearance of hypothetics Medicanes o Mediterranean hurricanes: Danas or “cold drop” are examples of the virulence that storms can reach in the Mediterranean basin.

Superyates have become the last redoubt of demonstration of opulence and status For millionaires who demonstrate their economic power exhibiting Its floating mansions. It is more than likely that none of those millionaires are questioned if the fine woods of the soils of Those floating moles They are or not respectful of the environment. However, there was someone who asked him and made a curious choice about it. Steve Jobs, obsessed with controlling Until the slightest detail of his yacht design, changed the Myanmar teak wood, prohibited For the environmental impact of its felling, for a much more sustainable wood: that of poppal that grows In Los Montes de León. Teak: traditional luxury yacht wood For decades, teak has been the favorite choice for the soils of the luxury yates. Its natural beauty and resistance to the extreme conditions of the sea make it a highly valued material. However, the demand for this wood has put in serious risk forests From India, Laos, Myanmar and Thailand, where this species is mainly cultivated. Due to Danger of deforestation Already unsustainable exploitation, the marketing of teak has been prohibited in many countries. International organizations such as FAO have warned of the environmental impact and They have promoted restrictions To protect these threatened ecosystems. Despite prohibitions, teak He has continued to arrive at the Yates Market luxury through illegal channels. An emblematic case is that of Oceanco Dutch shipyardresponsible for the construction of the Koru for Jeff Bezos. Oceanco was fined $ 150,000 for using teak wood from Myanmar, a country where forest exploitation is linked to conflicts and serious environmental problems. This scandal gained greater relevance because the Koru is presented as a symbol of innovation and sustainability, while actually appealed to practices that contradict these values. The use of teak of illegal origin on the deck of the Bezos Yate has been harshly criticized, especially because the tycoon himself He has received prizes for its supposed contribution to the preservation of the environment. Sortryate Venus, designed by Philippe Starcks and Steve Jobs Steve Jobs’s bet for León’s poplars Faced with this controversy, Steve Jobs made a radically different decision for his Venus yacht. Obsessed with perfection and sustainability, Jobs He rejected teak of more than 60 countries and Choose Leon’s poplar wood. A Álamo variant, known for its quality and low environmental impact. As he revealed The University of León in a specialized forum, both the covers and some structural elements of Venus were manufactured with this local wood, detailed he Diario de León. The Leonese chopo is highly appreciated in the luxury naval construction by its strength and lightness, qualities that make it an ideal alternative to teak. This choice not only reflects Jobs’s commitment to excellence, but also his Concern for the planet. The founder would never see the yacht that he designed together with Philippe Starcks, but was supervising every detail of the project until his death in 2011. The yacht was delivered in 2012. According to Superyatch Fan, Venus is valued at 120 million dollars. Its sharp silhouette stretches up to 78 meters in length and stands out for its futuristic aesthetics and vanguard technology. The command bridge is equipped with seven 27 -inch IMACS, and the interior spaces are wrapped in roof floor, which provides exceptional luminosity and amplitude. The interior of the sober and elegant Venus, with lighting, air conditioning and even entertainment systems that, according to rumors, can be controlled from iPads, in line with Apple’s philosophy of offering an intuitive and sophisticated experience. The yacht can house 12 guests in six cabins and needs a crew of 22 people to operate it.

If the question is “how much caffeine each cup of coffee or tea has”, this graph offers revealing responses

by

Every day, the world consumes about 2,250 million coffee cups. Let’s drink for their Health effectsbut also for its flavor and for caffeine. This substance surrounded by myths It is the psychoactive more consumed and is present in a lot of products outside coffee such as tea, sodas or energy drinks. Now, not all caffeine drinks have the same amount, and in this graph we can see how much caffeine your favorite coffee or infusion has, with an incontestable winner: the espresso. But there are many nuances. The figures. There are many ways to prepare coffee. In the Italian classic, With filterpercolation, infusion and even with unthinkable supplements until not as much as Protein either Fungi. And the amount of caffeine of each elaboration depends both on the caffeine of the grains of each variety of coffee, its roasted process and the way of cooking it. Caffeine for 30 ml of drink Espresso coffee 62.5 mg Filter coffee 22 mg infused coffee 17 mg Coffee for percolation 15 mg Matcha 8.75 mg mate 4-6 mg Black or green 4-6 mg Instantaneous 1.9 mg MILK CHOCOLATE 1 mg Decaffeinated instant coffee 0.6 mg Very roasted coffee decaffeinated 0.4 mg As the graphic prepared by Visual Capitalist With studies data from Health Canada and Consumer Reportscoffee with a greater concentration of caffeine is the espresso. As much, in addition: in 30 milliliters of drink, it has almost four times more caffeine than the following elaboration, and twelve times more than a black tea. The rest of coffee elaborations are quite pair, but we continue to see a greater concentration of caffeine than in the Matcha tea so popular latelyin the mate or in other tea infusions. If the Italians already knew … That the espresso has the greatest concentration is not a surprise and, in fact, it is an essential part of this elaboration. In it, by the extraction method itself, both flavor and intensity are intensified, increasing that concentration of caffeine. And it is something with a practical function. In the Italian traditionthe espresso was born to be fast. The coffee had to be extracted in the shortest possible time, standing at the bar of the bar and continuing with the day. Traditionally, it is taken without milk, as if it were a sucking sucking that is rapidly sipping, implying a break on the workers’ day, but also that energy ‘chute’ thanks to caffeine. It is a more practical drink than anything else, or it was. The ‘deception’. But of course, we must bear in mind that there is a very important factor in these data: The size of the cup. 30 milliliters is scarce, and it is the amount of an espresso. The coffee size that is usually taken is much larger, so it ends up compensating for the lower concentration of caffeine in other elaborations. An example is the Cold Brew, which is a Perfect infusion for summer that we take in a long glass of more than 300 milliliters. Adding the quantity and long extraction times, the caffeine goes to 200-280 mg per cup. The filtered coffee is also taken in high volumes, contributing between 95 and 150 mg per cup, and something similar occurs with the French press and its contribution of between 80 and 100 mg of caffeine. If we talk per liter, Newcastle University He found That the espresso is the absolute queen, but in the amount of drink we can take, the easiest thing is that there are many elaborations that exceed that contribution of the espresso. Caffeine per liter Espresso 4,200 mg Cold Brew 2,240 mg Moka 2,192 mg French press 742 mg Drip 692 mg How much caffeine is a lot of caffeine. And although there are more and more studies that suggest that caffeine is not a problem nor is it cause of heart attacksa question that is still on the table is how much coffee is too coffee. A study by the European Food Security Authority revealed that the unique doses of 200 mg are not any problem and that a maximum of 400 mg for an adult is fine. In pregnant women and infants, the thing changes and the figures are reduced, but the general measure is about 5.7 mg/kg of the person to talk about safe amounts. But, as we said, it is something that depends a lot because not only does the elaboration come into play, but The origin, variety and roasted of coffeesince it is something that vary the amount of caffeine in the final elaboration. And that is good or not so healthy depends a lot on the situation, such as If dream is missing or if we are going to do some sport.

What cars can circulate and which ones rest on June 14

by

Saturday and you can’t say that you have caught you by surprise. Because as every week the Sabatino does not circulate today. Restrictions that, as you know, are specific to the Saturday in which there are some master lines but that vary. This happens because, as you sure know, today does not circulate designed by the CDMX Ministry of Environment (Sedema) To reduce the pollutant emissions we breathe takes into account the type of car we use and what contaminates. For that, it takes into account the hologram and plate number. But, above all, the hologram as we will see very soon. Those restrictions, if we don’t take them into account, can cost us a good fine. Of course, remember that these restrictions that only apply in the 16 mayors in Mexico City and in the following conurbation municipalities of the State of Mexico: Atizapán de Zaragoza Coacalco de Berriozábal Cuautitlán Cuautitlán Izcalli Chalco Chicoloapan Chimalhuacán Ecatepec de Morelos Huixquilucan Ixtapaluca La Paz Naucalpan de Juárez Nezahualcóyotl Nicolás Romero Tecámac Tlalnepantla de Baz Tultitlán Chalco Valley What cars and plaques affect the Sabatino today Once we have all this clear, how do these restrictions apply? Well, we have to be clear that our cars can move as long as they are inside one of the following groups that we are going to specify below. First because the basics, the day to day, you have it in the superior image. As you can see, it specifies the prohibitions for each car, taking into account the hologram and the plate number. There they define what are the cars that have to rest. Because the thing changes on Saturdays. A day like today the following conditions can be applied. Cars that can circulate every Saturday Cars that have to rest every Saturday Cars that rest on a Saturday yes and another no+ These restrictions, however, do not apply all day. At night they do not take into account and, therefore, are active between 05:00 and 10:00 p.m.. That is, at night we can move freely and without being afraid of fines. Taking all this into account, what do you have to know yes or yes today does not circulate sabbatino? The first, that the hologram number defines the first restrictions but then there is a second layer in which we have to take an eye on the plate number and, above all, the calendar. And it is that on Saturdays, cars with hologram 2 cannot circulate in any case but those of Hologram 0 and 00 have a free way to move whenever they want and wherever they want. As are less pollutants, they can move with total freedom. And those of Hologram 1? Here you have to take an eye on the specific restrictions of the calendar. This Saturday, June 14, 2025 We must be very clear at what point we are. As it is the second Saturday of the month, it is the cars with hologram 1 and plaque finished in even number that rest. Next week will be the cars with hologram 1 and plaque finished in odd number those who will have to stay at home. However, there are some exceptions that must be taken into account because those cars can move with total freedom: Those that work for electricity, natural gas or are hybrid Those who have disabled plate All those dedicated to urban transport services (includes funerals) Those who offer school or passenger transport Those destined for public safety and/or civil protection In case of breaching these restrictions, the fine will be 20 to 30 times the unit of measurement and update (Uma), which is equivalent to 1,924.40 pesos and even 2,886.60 pesos.
