The 100 best universities in the world excluding those of the US, exposed this graphic revealing

by

The listings are important. Well for Choose the most reliable car or to see Where can we give ourselves a feasthaving well -ordered options is a good starting point in our search. The same goes for universities and, in These dates after the Pauit is likely that many wonder which one is the best. In this graph prepared by Visual Capitalist We can see the top 100 of the best universities in the world if we do not take into account those of the United States. Eeuu queen, but collapses. The list of the best universities has been prepared thanks to the data and scores of the ranking of Times Higher Educationbut something interesting is that the United States is left out for a very specific reason: although it represents almost a third of the best 100 universities in the world, in recent months Cases of permits rejection are being given due to the changing immigration policy of the country. According to data Of the Association of International Educators, or Nafsa, the interest in studying in the United States by postgraduate students from other countries collapsed in more than 40% after the arrival of Donald Trump to his second term. That after 6.6% increases in 2023 and 11.5% in 2024. Because of that, the graphic excludes American universitiescountry that still has Mit, Harvard, Princeton, Stanford, Caltech, Berkeley and Yale within the world top 10. United Kingdom: proper name. There are three free positions within those first ten, and the United Kingdom is the protagonist. The best in the world, according to this data, is the Oxford University. His eternal rival, Cambridgeoccupies the fifth place and closes the top 10 the Imperial College of London. The latter does not have as much name as the previous two and is much younger (open in 1907, when the other two are from the eleventh and thirteenth century respectively), but has managed to sneak among the best of the best. If we exclude the United States again, the United Kingdom stands out with 12 universities in the list. Europe, culture focus. If the United States is the one that has the most universities in the top 100 and the United Kingdom that has the best university in the world, as region, it is Europe that carries the singing voice. 36 of the 100 best non -American universities are found in Europe thanks to programs and policies Focused to scientific excellence and research. This list tells us about how Europe is not only an academy, but also a Important research pointwith Germany to the front with eight centers and other countries such as France (4 centers), Sweden (3) and the Netherlands (1) being outstanding names. In this list, Spain, Italy or Portugal are out of Top 100. In fact, according to the list, the only Spanish universities within the Top 200 are the University of Barcelona (position 149), the Pompeu Fabra (176) and the Autonomous University of Barcelona (199). Italy strain three others (Bologna (146), Scuola Normale Superior Di Pisa (154) and Sapienza University of Rome (185). China advances with speed. Leaving Europe, another important name is that of China. In recent years, Chinese universities have acquired greater importance in the international scenario due to an exhibition greater to their studies, to research and innovation. The country has seven universities in the list, two of them (the Tsinghua and Beijing) They are within the 20 most important, and is the third country with the most renowned universities at the moment after the US and the United Kingdom. AND It is not a coincidence: The Chinese government has invested more than 23,000 million dollars since 2016 for infrastructure and research equipment improvements and have started To apply policies to attract international students, with programs in English and certain advantages. And also talent. Notable absences. Outside these three regions, we have Japan, Canada, Singapore or Australia as examples of countries that also have universities in this list of the best 100. And, beyond countries such as Spain, Portugal, Greece or Italy without universities in this top, we also see a lack of Latin American and African universities. Rejection of listings. And, although lists of this type can be very useful when finding the university that best suits your educational or research needs and can give prestige to those that are above the list, it is also possible that those same universities reject being there. An example is that of the Harvard School of Medicine, which a few years ago said “no” to one of these lists. Specifically, the index of the medical schools of US News & World Report. Reasons? Question the methodology used to create these indexes. But from the index they responded to Harvard stating that, with increasingly faces, students deserve to have access to all data and information to make a decision. Beyond all that, it is curious to know which countries that accumulate that educational and research wealth and know that it is not something that is achieved overnight, needing, as we see in the case of China, that the government impulse is key to improving the university offer.

What cars can circulate and which ones rest on June 7

by

Weekend and, of course, days to be attentive to today, Sabatino does not circulate. Because specific restrictions on Saturdays can be very expensive if we do not remedy and we put ourselves at the wheel of our car without taking anything into account. But what are we talking about? Of course, of today’s restrictions, a system devised by the CDMX Ministry of Environment (Sedema) to try to reduce the pollutants of the air we breathe. This measure, as surely you know, forces to leave some cars at home since it applies a very simple formula: less cars, less pollution. But of course, for that restrictions apply that can lead us to a fine if we are not attentive. 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 this clear, what restrictions apply and how? First, what we have to be clear about is that our cars will not be able to move if we are in any of the following groups that we are going to specify below. First, for day to day you have the superior image. It specifies that, depending on the hologram and plate number, a car will always have to rest. Of course, the thing changes the weekend because on Saturdays there are specific rules. Thus, 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. Analyzed all this, the important thing is to know who cannot circulate during today does not circulate Sabatino. To do this you have to look at the hologram, the plate number and, if necessary, the calendar. On Saturdays, cars with hologram 2 cannot circulate in any case. The opposite happens with cars with hologram 0 and 00 that can move completely free. As are less pollutants, they can move with total freedom. But what happens to hologram 1? In this case, the restrictions are distributed taking into account the calendar. This Saturday, June 7, 2025 We are facing the first Saturday of the month. That means that it is the cars with hologram 1 and plate finished in odd number those that rest. Next week, as is broken, they will be finished in torque. 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.

Switch 2 is important for Nintendo, but also for a nvidia that does not want to lose ground against AMD

by

Nintendo Switch 2 It’s here. When a new generation of consoles arrives, beyond New games and experiences that allows, there is a substantive issue that may not interest all users so much, but it is of vital importance for the technology industry: Who signs the processor. We don’t know Switch 2’s heart beyond what the tests of their first games suggest. AND, Although it is evident that it is powerfulwe will have to wait to see how developers thoroughly squeeze their chip designed by NVIDIA and manufactured by Samsung. It is evident that the console is important for a Nintendo who saw that switch sales began to waverbut just as important for that NVIDIA that signs a processing unit with which, now, it comes back to the battle horse in the hybrid console segment. Nvidia returns to load When a company leads, what you want is to have even more part of the cake. Nvidia dominates The world of PC video games With iron hand and, although AMD is doing things well with its latest generations, the singing voice continues to take the company led by Jensen Huang. That battle against AMD on the PC is very unequal, but In the field of consoles, history tells us something else. Both were linked decades ago to video games on platforms dedicated with ATI (before being part of AMD) designing the GPU of Game Cube, Wii and Xbox 360 and Nvidia taking care of the GPU of the Original Xbox and of PS3. With the jump to the next generation, Nvidia got out of the equation and left the free ground for an AMD that did not succeed with her GPU, either with her CPU, but with her APU. It was his technology that convinced Sony and Microsoft for all their consoles from Xbox One and PS4 From now on. Nvidia, however, returned in 2017 with His tegra chip and a new alliance with Nintendo for Switch launch. It was not the most advanced at the time, that Tegra showed that the technology was ready To be able to create platforms that offered such experience with desktop power, but in portable format. And they have not gone wrong or Nintendo … neither Nvidia by extension. 152 million units and up. However, things have changed because Nvidia is no longer alone in this and AMD, along with Valve with Steam Deckshowed that its image reconstruction technology, Photograms generation and its power/consumption relationship could overcome what Nvidia offered with switch. Thus, we have seen AMD heart on PC consolidated as impressive as the Lenovo Legion Go or the Asus Rog Allyand it is a segment in which Intel, with a first failed proposal with the MSI Claw and a much more solid second with MSI Claw 8 AI+shows that you also have something to say. Nvidia has remained away from those PC consolidated for a reason: They didn’t have a CPU. Now, earlier this year, and after months of rumors, Nvidia presented Project Digits. It is a desktop computer for AI whose CPU is designed by NVIDIA: Graceof 20 cores, which although it is still ARM and arrived a few years ago, is now consolidated with digits as a blow to the table to a market that was dominated by Intel and AMD. Nvidia’s commitment is still far from the average user, and even further from the players, but although they are not possible to create processors that compete against Intel and the AMD Ryzen, on desktop PC, that renewed alliance with Nintendo to create Switch 2 can be, if sales accompany, the impulse that they lacked to finish deciding and being The third player in the battle of the PC consolidated. Your proposal? Beyond gross power, artificial intelligence nuclei for Push the hardware Beyond the possible until now. But of course, they would have to develop a X86 processor. Or that or throwing into the pool and marking an adventure with a valve that is already trying to stem Compatible with ARM. Although, of course, all this would be nothing if Nvidia, which money does not lack, would have signed an exclusive contract with Nintendo for this type of hardware. Whatever happens, Jensen Huang seems like engaged With Nintendo’s vision, and they may not end up getting into mud with Intel and AMD as the third company in discord, precisely, because with Switch 2 and their AI -based technology already have more than enough reasons to say an “EY, which in this segment we also have much to say at the power level”. After all, no matter how veteran the first switch was very obsolete that his heart was, I kept selling like hot bread Although the rest of hybrid systems offer much more as far as gross power is concerned.

Tesla wants to keep certain accidents of accidents with her cars. A judge will decide if they should be made public

by

The Autopilot and the Total Autonomous Driving Capacity (FSD) have been available in the Tesla sold in the United States for years. Its existence, its commercial deployment and even its general operation are well known. What remains a mystery are some details of the accidents occurred With those activated systems. Tesla does not want this information to come to light, and now he has resorted to court to keep it locked. The origin of the conflict is in a lawsuit filed by The Washington Post against NHTSA, the Federal Road Safety Agency of the United States. The newspaper requests access to the full spreadsheet that compiles the reports of incidents occurred while the Tesla driving assistance systems were activated. According to the medium, the NHTSA publishes some data, but retains “critical details” such as environmental conditions, the location of the claims or the concrete versions of the software that were in use. For the plaintiffs, it is information of public interest that can shed light on the true performance of these technologies. A defense based on commercial secret As Reuters collects, Tesla has responded firmly. This week, he presented a writing before the Federal Court of the Columbia district to oppose the publication of this data. Its central argument is that certain fields of reports contain sensitive information. Specifically, the hardware or software version, the indication of whether the car circulated inside its Designed Operational Domain (ODD) and the detailed narrative of the accident. According to the company, revealing these elements would allow its competitors to evaluate the effectiveness of each version of the system, track the pace of improvement and associate errors with specific versions. It is, says Tesla, “a technological road map” that could cause severe competitive damage. The NHTSSA, meanwhile, has partially backed that position. In a separate writingthe agency coincides with Tesla that these three fields are protected by the Law of Freedom of Information (FOIA). Both argue that it is not only privacy, but of commercial confidentiality, a category that can legally justify that documents are not delivered to the public. The newspaper’s lawyers, on the other hand, have alleged that this information is already partially accessible to the drivers themselves and that their compilation should not be armored by the business secret. Now it is the Federal Court who must decide whether that information comes to light or remains hidden. But the debate is not purely legal; It occurs in full scrutiny of driving assistance systems. As NPR points outNHTSSA investigates FSD’s yield in 2.4 million vehicles After several accidentsincluding mortal in 2023. It also maintains other inquiries on collisions in low visibility conditions and on the function Actually Smart Summon. Although not all collisions are known publicly, the confidential spreadsheet that the Washington Post claims contains the incidents that Tesla regularly refers to the agency, but seeks to delve into the information that is made known. Autopilot, improved autopilot and total autonomous driving capacity are the three levels at which Tesla organizes its driving assistance systems. The first, Autopilot, comes standard in new vehicles sold in the United States and includes functions such as adaptive cruise control and autogyro, which keeps the car inside the lane. From there, the user can pay to access a more advanced package, the improved autopilot, or directly to the total autonomous driving capacity (Full Self-Driving or FSD), the most complete set offered by the brand. In practice, none of these systems converts the car into an autonomous vehicle. Despite his name, Full Self-Driving requires the driver to be attentive, with his hands on the steering wheel and willing to take control at any time. Tesla makes it clear: These are systems designed to attend, Not to replace the driver. That does not prevent functions such as automatic lane changes, assisted parking or the ability to stop before traffic lights and stop signals (in beta) are already available in many cars. They are important advances, but under mandatory human supervision. Images | Tesla (1, 2, 3) In Xataka | It seeks to hunt influencers.

We tried switch games on Nintendo Switch 2. The surprise is capitalized in games that were crawled before

by

Nintendo Switch 2 It arrives with a bestial launch catalog. It is true that, perhaps, The games that come from start They are not very numerous or really new. Beyond ‘Mario Kart World‘ and ‘Nintendo Switch Welcyome Tour‘, games like the surprising’Cyberpunk 2077‘,’Hogwarts Legacy‘ either ‘Street Fighter 6‘They were already available for other consoles. However, the key to this console is that it is backward with most physical and digital games of Nintendo Switch. Simply insert the switch game cartridge you would not have played so far … enjoy. I’m already testing switch 2 In the face of the analysis and one of the first surprises that I have found is that there are Nintendo Switch games that They improve a lot in Nintendo Switch 2 without the need for a patch Payment. And another thing that has caught me by surprise is that Nintendo has launched some totally free improvement patches. But let’s see what it is, since there is crumb. Quality of life vs. Visual quality: The key of the retrocompatibles of switch 2 As I say, Switch 2 retrocompatibility It is as simple as introducing or downloading the game of the previous console and starting to enjoy. There is an obvious improvement as soon as we start with the game thanks to the screen. Have improvements or not, simply by the greatest contrast and saturation of the new panel -despite being LCD -, the games look “better. But here you have to talk about improvements that the new Nvidia chip can offer. That extra power is already noticeable in exclusive titles of the new switch, as a ‘cyberpunk 2077’ that is halfway between the versions of PS4 and Xbox Series Sor the new ‘Mario Kart’ which is a visual delight. In games that have improvement patch, such as ”The Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild‘ either ‘Tears of the Kingdom‘, there is also a higher image resolution and textures, better shadows and, above all, a yield at 60 fps when the original fought in some moments with the 30 fps. Ok, we talk about games that have been ‘spoiled’ for the new console, but … what about a ‘Bayonetta 3‘, a ‘Xenoblade Chronicles 2‘or a’Super Mario Odyssey‘? This is where the thing gets interesting and each of them allows me to comment on the sensations with the focus of this retrocompatibility of Switch 2. ‘Bayonetta 3’ This game is a visual wonder in Nintendo’s hybrid. It has a section very similar to that seen in previous deliveries, but also the goal of moving to 60 frames per second. The problem is that this figure does not always achieve And, although the character’s response and the feeling to the controls is good, nailing the frame rate per second in 60 is something very interesting for these action games. In fact, in this game, video scenes are blocked at 30 frames per second, as confirmed by the Foundry digital mediumand they feel softer than the scenes in which we take the controls, which range between those 60 and 30 frames per second, with jumps that transmit greater roughness in the controls. I have tried to explain it in a simple way, but the summary is that it is a situation that was not ideal. With Nintendo Switch 2, the situation changes. The game has a fragment rate unlocked with 60 as a limit and the new Nintendo console, thanks to that greatest gross power, PErythe you carry the game scenes to very constant 60 frames per second. Now, playing ‘Bayonetta 3’ is a delight, also because the response time between our button and the character’s movement is lower, and everything feels softer. It is something that also happens in other titles such as a ‘Deadly Premonition‘I had a subochorous performance on switch or’Batman Arkham Knight‘, that Nor was I left over of fluidity in the nintendo hybrid. As I say, there are several games in which the performance was unlocked and the youtuber Modern Vintage Gamer It allows us to see the before and after. Summary: The games with frame-unlocked or that had problems in Nintendo Switch, even if they do not have improvement patch, they feel better to the controls, much softer. ‘Xenoblade Chronicles 2’ This game is one of the largest in the previous console and that implied, especially in portable mode, that developers introduced a dynamic resolution system for prioritize at all times to reach acceptable performance to 30 frames per second. It resulted in a game that was at an extremely low resolution, keeping a long time in 360p when the 1st 720p switch screen. Other games that prioritized performance against sharpness were ‘Doom‘ either ‘Wolfenstein: The New Colossus‘, among others. What happens when we introduce them in Nintendo Switch 2? Well … there are good and bad news. The good news is that the performance, when there were some downturn, is better, as is the case in ‘Bayonetta 3’. The bad news is that the resolution was dynamic, but there were limits that could not happen and if on a 720p screen they already looked blurred, in a larger and with more resolution such as Nintendo Switch 2, the problem is accentuated. ‘Doom’ looks somewhat more clear in the portable mode of Switch 2, just like ‘Wolfenstein’, but the textures have the same definition as those they had on Switch and the result is a somewhat washed general image. With vaseline effect, as they say. In ‘Xenoblade Chronicles 2’, now I don’t notice so many dowersbut the resolution is still very low and the ‘jaggies’, or saw teeth, are more accentuated in Nintendo Switch 2. It is a game that would come from pearls a patch. Summary: The games that were already blurred on the Nintendo Switch screen, will continue to see blurred on Switch 2, despite the highest general quality of the new panel. Free patches Apart, there are games that do not have any type of patch and that, despite … Read more

The world’s most popular video platform is giving failures (updated)

by

Update 06/06/2025 21:08: The video platform has re -operated normally If you were planning to finish the week watching videos in YouTube And you are not getting it, calm: the problem is not on your computer or in your Internet connection. The world’s most popular video platform is experiencing failures at the moment, with several users reporting errors to access or reproduce content. In our tests from Spain, trying to enter YouTube.comthe page loads partially but shows no miniatures or content. The only thing that appears is the usual skeleton of the interface: gray blocks where videos should go, without images, without titles and without descriptive text. It is not a punctual failure: the interface directly does not work. Reports about YouTube failures too They are appearing in Downdetectora platform that includes incidents in digital services from the alerts of the users themselves. According to visible data at this time, the peak of problems began few minutes before 20:00 (Spanish peninsular time), with more than 5,000 notifications in a very short time. For now, the origin of the failures that are affecting YouTube is unknown. Neither the platform itself nor its parent company, Google (owned by Alphabet), have offered explanations about what happened nor have any official statement issued. There is also no technical information that allows us to understand whether it is a specific problem on servers or a global fall of the system. At the time of publishing this article, The official YouTube account in X (formerly Twitter) has not done No mention to the problems that are affecting the service. The last message posted dates back approximately 24 hours. The falls of this type may be due to multiple factors: from errors on the servers of the platform itself to service denial (DDOS) attacks or failures in fundamental third party services for the operation of the Internet, such as the content distribution network suppliers (CDN) or DNS.

Byd pays up to 600,000 euros for unmasking defamatory campaigns

by

The electric car market has become something suffocating in China. The competition has shot to the point that some of the fashion companies are denouncing defamatory campaigns against them. The last to do so has been byd. “We accept media criticism and public supervision, but we will not tolerate defamatory content or false accusations.” With these words, Li Yunfei, general manager of the BYD brand and public relations department, has referred to statements collected by Carnewschina. The hard tone comes after Byd has denounced 37 influencers for what he considers a campaign against the company. According to the company, these accounts would have poured misinformation content to damage their sales. More than 150 accounts under suspicion In addition to these 37 accounts that he has already denounced, the Asian giant monitors the activity of another 126 accounts that could, according to their opinions, be misinforming and launching harmful information against the company. This has been confirmed by the company itself a statement in Wechat, according to Carnewschina. In its announcement, the company specifies the number of accounts reported and on which it maintains their attention but also emphasizes that anyone who gives clues about accounts that are organizing these alleged discredit campaigns will be rewarded. Specifically they talk about delivering between 50,000 and 5 million yuan (between 6,000 and 600,000 euros, approximately). It also coincides with A publication in Weibo where they presume past and good reputation. It is in this social network and others like Tiktok where the company seeks who, they assure, to defame their work. Nor is it the first time that Byd carries out a similar action. Last year the company has already taken similar measures and did in 2021. In its messages they emphasize that it will be rewarded “whenever you can clearly sign up for relevant individuals, advertising companies or relevant automobile companies. We will resolve it and inform the public”, can be read in this notice last year. Although, by size, Byd is the one that has the most speaker is the only company that has denounced similar practices. In SINA FINANCE We can read that Nio also suffered similar discredit campaigns. And more recently Xiaomi too denounced a discredit campaign Hours before showing in public its Xiaomi Yu7. In the case of Byd, in Carnewschina They collect some examples that the brand has published. Among them is a Weibo user who It has been sanctioned by the Chinese courts with the payment of 100,000 yuan (more than 12,000 euros) for ensuring that the company manipulates influencers. The same amount will have to pay another user who insulted the company and its executives. And a third will have to disburse about 8,000 euros for giving false information on the safety and quality of Byd cars. All are cases that have already been investigated or that are in the hands of justice, as accounts reported by, according to Byd, to give false information about explosions of vehicles or false financial data that pointed to a possible bankruptcy.

AI is turning software programming into a assembly chain

by

AI is not only transforming the labor market, but also It is changing the nature of the work itself and the tasks that They make up every position. What was previously a highly Specialized and well paidlike that of Software Engineernow Run risk If becoming much more routine, segmented and, above all, accelerated. Something closer to an operator in a assembly chain. According to The New York Timessome Amazon engineers already begin to feel like that. From the industrial revolution to digital automation The impact of AI is already beginning to be noticed among the Technology template. Not so much for the destruction of jobs, as for the transformation of Those who already existed. Often It is equated The arrival of AI with the Industrial Revolution for the change of technological paradigm that was lived. The History has demonstrated that, in the medium term, the automation was not linked to the destruction of employment, but to A displacement and transformation of labor tasks. During the industrial revolution, and then with the passage to Model ‘Fordist’ Mass production with assembly chain, no jobs were destroyed. Its nature was changed. With the Ford assembly chain, the manufacture of cars in workshops was replaced in an artisanal way, by workers located in A assembly line They specialized in doing a very specific task. That was the key to Increase productivity and reduce costs. Automation allowed workers to will focus on specific functionswhile the machines assumed the heaviest or repetitive work. According to A study conducted by MIT researchers and the University of Pennsylvania, Amazon, Google and Microsoft are using their AI tools in a similar way. Software operators With the As a co -pilotlarge technological ones are automating certain tasks of their software engineers that previously required working hours. That liberated time dedicate it to Improve existing products or get new products in less development time. That is, this process is taking a new level, where IA begins to play the role equivalent to industrial machinery of the nineteenth century. Andy Jassy, ​​CEO of Amazon, acknowledged in A LinkedIn post That thanks to this automation with AI, the company had “saved the equivalent of 4,500 years of development work.” Amazon Robotic Warehouse Amazon logistics centers can serve as an example of what is happening now in their software development offices. Some years ago, the employees who prepared Amazon shipments had to travel the long halls of their stores to gather the products of each order. However, now technology It has robotized This whole process to eliminate that search task. With the automation of its centers It has not been dispensed with of those jobs, but are now dedicated to specific tasks. of packaging, the number of orders that each employee can process and His work has been devalued. That warehouse staff now assures that his work is monotonousrepetitive and poorly paid. The same that happened with the operators of the assembly chains. Software engineers begin to notice the same symptoms, with an acceleration of their workflows and greater automation. “If they tell you that you have to review the code, it is never a fun part of work. When you work with these tools (of AI attendance), it is most of the work,” assured Simon Willison, veteran programmer and blogger. The consequences of this automation are already beginning to be noticed in the Junior positions of different sectorsand the programming is exempt. The agents of Which generate code They do the task that the Junior previously developed and, of that practice, acquired the experience that allowed them to ascend. Without this learning, senior engineers will not be trained that tomorrow can review the code generated by an AI and detect errors, or face adequate development strategies.

For years we peel fruits by habit. It seems that we were throwing the best according to science

by

When I was little, there was a girl in my class that did something that produced us between laughter and repulsion: he ate orange with skin. Without peeling it, without dividing it into segments, I bit her whole as if it were an apple, and we all looked at her incredulous. I remember that it seemed strange to me, and I think someone told her not to eat like that, to what she ignored. Today I wonder if, without knowing it, that girl was not closer to the truth than the rest of us. A popular trend. In recent years, eat fruits with skin, such as kiwi, has become In a viral trend in the networks. Everything exploded when Jenna Ortega, the actress who gives life to Wednesday, A story uploaded eating a kiwi without peeling. In a matter of days, thousands of users They have dared To site the tooth to the skin of this fruit, but it has turned out that it is recommended by some experts. Science behind. According to A Heathline analysisfruits and vegetables usually concentrate more nutrients than pulp. The example that uses is a raw apple, which, with the skin, contains much higher nutritional values, such as 115% more vitamin C. Another reference that makes is with a boiled potato, if the skin is maintained, it can be 115% more potassium. The most important point is that the shells contain much of the total fruit or vegetable fiber. In addition, that fiber, especially the so -called viscous fiber, Help reduce appetite by slowing down gastric emptying and stimulating hormones that promote satiety, According to a study. There is much more. As for antioxidants, such as has underlined in its column The doctor Mahammad Jube, are mostly on the skin. These compounds help combat cell damage and reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases and certain types of cancer. All peeled. If until now it has always peeled, it is partly because of its texture or flavor. In the case of Kiwi’s skin it can be rough, that of bitter citrus, and that of some pumpkins too hard. However, the fear of pesticides also influences. As have explained in an investigationpesticide residues can be found in fruits cultivated both conventional and organic; Most stay in the outer skin. Washing fruits eliminates 41% of these waste on average, while peeling can eliminate double. Can you know all fruits and vegetables? Not all skins are the same. Some, such as apple, grapes, plum or eggplant, are perfectly edible and nutritious. Others, such as melon, pineapple, avocado or papaya, are too hard or fibrous. Healthline offers a useful list to distinguish between edible and non -edible skin. In the case of Kiwi, that many people will be rejecting, such as has detailed Cleveland Clinic, it is possible to eat your skin, and is a fiber and vitamin E source, although it is recommended to wash it well and, if desired, choose more fine skin varieties such as golden kiwi. However, it should be noted that fruits such as Durián or the Japanese loaf The conversation. I wasn’t so wrong. Today we know that many fruit skins are not only edible, but also rich in nutrients. That the rejection of them has more to do with custom, texture or perception than with an objective reason. Science supports it, but the habit weighs. Maybe it’s not about eating it all, but looking twice before throwing what we discarded.

In the heart of Karakum deserta vast extension of dune burned by the sun that covers about 70% of Turkmenistanthere is a place that breaks with the monotony of the landscape. There, between sand crests and without asphalting roads, the Darvaza cratera cavity of 70 meters in diameter known as the ‘Hell door‘. Its origin, like many episodes inherited from the Soviet era, is wrapped in contradictory versions and incomplete documents. The most cited theory holds that in 1971 a team of Soviet geologists pierced in search of oil when he found a natural gas bag. The land gave in and several sinks were formed. To avoid a methane leak, they would have decided to set fire to one of them. They thought it would be extinguished in a few days. Half a century later, the flame is still alive. Half a century later, the flame begins to extinguish Now, no version is confirmed. According to the Canadian explorer George Kouounis, First person to explore the crater in 2013not even local geologists agree. Some place training in the sixties and ignition in the eighties. Others talk about a grenade or even neighbors of a nearby town who preferred to light the crater to avoid bad odors or risk of poisoning. There are no public documents of the Soviet era that clarify the event, and the existing records could continue to be confidential. The truth is that, regardless of its origin, the crater has become the main tourist claim of a country that I barely receive 15,000 visitors a year. Every night, the glow of the flames illuminates the sky of the karakum and attracts travelers willing to travel four hours from Asjabad on a double -meaning road and sand roads. Visits have been professionalized: today there are several camps, such as Garagum, with housing in yurts, solar lighting and outdoor dinners next to the edge of the crater. But that fire could go out. In recent years, the Turkmenistan government has shown interest in extinguishing it. This week, During the TESC Environmental Conference held in Ashgabad, Irina Luryeva, director of the Institute for Natural Gas Research, reported concrete progress: previously sealed wells have been reactivated, drilled new to capture the residual gas, and The volume of flames has decreased visibly. The British Capterio company, specialized in satellite data, confirmed that combustion intensity has been reduced more than three times since 2013. Darvaza’s flames, which for decades have symbolized both the power and unpredictability of the country’s energy resources, have begun to diminish. And it is no accident. Turkmenistan, frequently indicated for its lack of transparency and authoritarianismhas begun to move internationally with concrete environmental promises: reduce its methane emissions by 2030. As part of that commitment, the authorities have activated a technical roadmap to contain the gas flow in the area.
