A user bought a state -of -the -art connected dishwasher. There began his nightmare

by

“I will not connect my dishwasher to your stupid cloud.” That has been The declaration of intentions From Jeff Geerling, a well -known YouTuber, after buying a new household appliance. It is something that we are living for years: the condemnation of the products that force us to spy on everything they do because if they do not work as they should theoretically. Premieving dishwasher. This week Geerling explained in his blog and also In a video on YouTube How he bought a new dishwasher from the Bosch brand. Specifically, one of the 500 series, because I had seen it recommended in Consumer Reports, a well -known organization of consumers and users in the US. After the installation the surprise came: I could not turn it on and put it to work without more. Wi-Fi and Mandatory Online Account. When trying to start it and start a clarified cycle, Geerling realized that he could not activate that option. After reading the manual he knew why. I needed to do two things first. The first, connect your dishwasher to your domestic wi-fi network. The second, create an account in the Bosch Home Connect service, which would allow you to access the option of clarified and some additional options, such as ecological or medium load mode. I could not even use the basic options via Bluetooth for example: it had to connect it to the Wi-Fi network and create the account yes or yes. If you want screen, it’s time to pay more. The dishwasher that bought this youtuber is a model that costs around $ 1,000. In spite of this – or precisely because of that – it did not have physical buttons, and the controls are tactile and are at the dishwasher door when opening it. There is also no screen that allows you to know how much time it remains for the washing cycle to end, for example. The upper series, the Bosch 800, do have that screen, but there is to pay $ 400. Why do I need a dishwasher app? As Geerling indicated, a local application with some type of direct wireless connection – but without connection to the outside or the rest of the local network devices – could make sense, but this did not have it. That you have to control virtually all the options and information of your washing machine mandatory through an app and a Wi-Fi connection was absurd according to your opinion. “I don’t need internet in my dishwasher,” he said. Few and bad options. This YouTuber is a technology expert and is accustomed to finding solutions to these types of problems. He talked about how maybe I could not use those advanced options, but if you spend $ 1,000 in a dishwasher it seems like not strange not to be able to use them. He also thought of using a VLAN network for IoT devices (a separate and isolated network). Nor hack it compensates too much. There is even an even more technical option, because someone has made reverse engineering of the Bosch protocol and has created a HCPY protocol To control these dishwashers without the manufacturer being able to do anything. However, that would force him to devote several more hours to putting everything in motion and all he wanted was to be able to use his dishwasher in a simple way. And he could return the appliance, but he had also invested time and effort to install it at home. A dishwasher should not connect to the Internet. For Geerling Bosch’s strategy is an absolute mistake. Among other things because if you depend on an application and a cloud service to use your dishwasher, Bosch will have to manage and maintain that service, which means two things: either they are selling the data of your use of the appliance, or will end up closing the service or migrating it to be a subscription service, something that has passed in similar scenarios. And a potential security hole. But it is also that a dishwasher is part of your domestic network opens another potential attack vector. If someone manages to find vulnerability in Bosch dishwasher, they will have access to the rest of your local area network. That It has also happened. Not onebut several times. Not everything needs to be connected. Geerling’s conclusion – with which we agree – is that IoT appliances and products should be designed with a maximum: first that they work at home, and then, if perhaps, they work in the cloud as something optional. This dishwasher is an example of a trend that can make sense in some areas, but not of course in this concrete. Image | Jeff Geerling In Xataka | We are running out of “dumb” appliances.

We just needed AI and satellite images

by

The last year exceeded all expectations Regarding the installation of renewable energy. However, until now we did not have a clear visual image of this phenomenon, but only with data to make comparisons. Now we can access that panoramic. Short. The project GLOBAL RENEWABLE Watch It consists of a map created from satellite images and artificial intelligence models to show the expansion of solar and wind energy. The initiative has been developed by Microsoft AI for Good Lab, in collaboration with The Nature Conservancy and Planet Labs PBC. In addition, Cornell University He has participated in the validation of the project. The operation. The program itself has explained that they can identify, thanks to the AI, where it is more viable to install renewable projects, considering factors such as the availability of long -term land, the electrical infrastructure of all countries and the environmental impact. In addition, the Public Platform information in Github and uses an open source approach to guarantee transparency. Accelerated growth. In a quick look at the program, it shows that energy has advanced at an unprecedented rate. In it we can see something that We already knew: China leads the installed capacity of solar and wind energy, with large projects that extend throughout the country with a capacity of 632,859.61 MW. This data is quite significant because in the data collected in the fourth quarter of 2017 it had 270,827.59MW, exceeding 133.68%. Well below, but with a significant number it is the United States that is located with 285,974.11MW, exceeding 126.63%. The data show a considerable increase in the American country, but with Trump’s policies It seems that they will be maintained In that amount. For its part, in the case of the European Union, the most prominent case is Germany with 60,042.53MW, but its data at the beginning of data collection were not so low: 38,151.75MW. In fact, the case of Germany was expected by The rise of self -consumption with more than 500,000 solar panels installed on the balconies. Spain’s capacity in solar and wind energy And Spain? It is the next country that follows the EU. The data shown by the Atlas are of the second quarter of 2024, which reveal that the energy capacity in megawatts is 54,068.67 exceeding 127.93% the capacity of the fourth quarter of 2017. In addition, solar energy is the source that More has increased In the same time parameter, achieving more than 254.55%. There are still things to polish. One of the main challenges is the handling of large volumes of data, since the platform processes the terabytes of satellite image and thousands of predictions related to solar and wind energy. In addition, for the data to be reliable, it requires a constant validation of the AI ​​algorithms.

AI is a great black box that prevented us from knowing how “I thought” inside. Until now

by

AI do not have No idea what he says Not why he says it. When he responds almost everything makes sense – even his legs of legs – but he only seems to us, because the machines do not understand what they do. They simply do. We do not know how the IAS think inside, but that seems to be able to change soon. Opening the black box. Those responsible for Anthropiccreator of the chatbot Claude, They affirm having made an important discovery that will begin to understand how the LLM work. These models work as large black boxes: we know what we give them starting (a prompt) and what we get as a result, but it is still a mystery what happens within that “black box” and how the models end up generating the content they generate. Why it is important to know how “think” the AI. The inscrutability of AI models generates important problems. For example, it makes it difficult to anticipate If they “hallucinate” or make mistakesand why they have committed them. Precisely knowing how they work inside would allow better to understand those incorrect responses to correct these problems and improve the behavior of these models. Safer, more reliable. Knowing why the IAS do what they do as they do would also be crucial to be able to trust us much more. These models would therefore allow many more guarantees in areas such as the privacy and protection of the data, something that can be a barrier for companies to use. And reasoning models, what. The appearance of models such as O1 or Deepseek R1 has allowed that during these “reasoning” processes the AI ​​apparently shows what you are doing at all times. That list of minitareas that is completing (“searching the web”, “analyzing the information”, etc.) are useful, but the so -called “chain of thought” does not really reflect how our requests are processing these models. How does Claude calculate how much are 36+59? The mechanism is not entirely clear, but in Anthropic they begin to decipher it. Source: Anthropic. Deciphering how AI thinks. Anthropic experts have created a tool that tries to decipher that black box. It is something like magnetic resonance scannars that study the human brain and allow to detect which brain regions play their role in certain cognitive areas. Long -term responses. Although models such as Claude are trained to predict the following word in a sentence, in some tasks it seems that Claude makes a kind of longer term planning of the task. For example, if we ask you to write a poem Claude you first find words that fit the theme of the poem and then go back to create the phrases that will generate the verses and rhymes of the poem. A language to think, many to translate. Although Claude has multi -mounted support, Anthropic experts reveal that their operation by handling several languages ​​is not “thinking” in those languages ​​directly. Instead use concepts that are common in several languages, so It seems to “reason” in the same language and then translate the exit to the desired language. The models cheat. That research also revealed that the models They can lie about what they are doing And they can even pretend that they are thinking when they really already have the answer to our request. One of Claude’s developers, Josh Batson, explained how “although (the model) claims to have made a calculation, our interpretability techniques do not reveal any indication that it has occurred.” How Anthropic’s deciphering works. The Anthropic method makes use of the call Cross-Layer Transcoder (CLT) that works analyzing interpretable sets instead of trying to analyze individual “neurons”. For example, these characteristics could be all conjugations of a specific verb. That allows researchers to identify complete “circuits” of neurons that tend to join in these processes. A good start. In the past OpenAi already tried to discover How their AI models thoughtbut it was not very successful. Anthropic’s work has notable limitations, and for example he does not know why the LLM pay more attention to certain parts of the Prompt than others. Even so, according to Batson “in a year or two we will know more about how these models think about what people think.” In Xataka | Universal Music has just stumbled against Anthropic by Copyright: a victory for AI technology

Bill Gates does not believe that doctors and teachers have a future

by

Bill Gates has led the technological scene for enough time to know see a disruptive change When you have it in front: AI is one of those changes. In an interview on the occasion of the launch of his new book ‘Sources Code: My beginnings‘, the millionaire has assured that the AI ​​of the future will no longer need human intervention in certain tasks such as the Disease diagnosis or education. It will not be in the short term, but it will be Bill Gates has repeatedly shared his vision of artificial intelligence in different interviews, the last in a recent interview during the program The Tonight Show presented by Jimmy Fallon. During the interview, in addition to remembering the anecdote in which Steve Jobs incredp LSD to improve your productsGates said that AI will have such a significant impact on people’s lives, that humans “will not be necessary for most things.” Although this statement could sound somewhat dystopian and alarming, Gates emphasized that the key is how we use AI to improve our lives instead of fearing it, something that He had already explainedin one of the entries in his personal blog. The millionaire recognized that, at present, the use of AI is still “rare and very expensive”, pointing to those fields, such as medicine or teaching, where assistance It is still closely linked to human specialists In those fields. “With AI, during the next decade, that will become free and usual. It is a very deep change because it solves all those specific problems, such as we do not have enough doctors, mental health professionals. But it brings many changes,” said the founder of Microsoft. Something that already advanced in 2023 in an interview with Sal Khan, founder of Khan Academy, For your podcast ‘Unconfuse Me ‘. Gates clarified that there will be certain activities that humans are going to want to continue doing, such as playing (and seeing) football or humans matches, but there will be other activities in which AI will end up being more efficient than humans and, therefore, they will be abandoned, explained to Jimmy Fallon. The general will be the great transformative leap In the interview that Bill Gates keptWith Arthur Brooks at Harvard University, the millionaire stressed How AI can expand human capacities in areas such as education, health and work. According to Gates, those best human capabilities assisted by AIthey will contribute to accelerate technological advances causing their development curve to be faster and, therefore, reach the majority of users at a very low price. “It is something very deep and even a little scary, because it is happening very fast and there is no upper limit,” Gates explained to Brooks during his interview. Gates believes thatin the first instance, it will be the agents of AI who will change the way in which we interact with AI, becoming specialists in very specific tasks. This was told to Aria Finger and Reid Hoffman, founder of LinkedIn in An interview for your podcast ‘Possible ‘. For example, a duly trained AI agent could help students and workers to develop skills more quickly through personalized learning tools to each student. However, Gates considers that AI, as we know it today, has the days counted. The next great jump is the General Artificial Intelligencethat is closer to Concept of human intelligence. Mustafa Suleyman, Executive Director of Artificial Intelligence of Microsoft and, according to Bill Gates, One of the most vision voices On the future of AI, it aligns with the prediction of Gates in that the current AI and the AI ​​agents are only one Intermediate step towards the great revolution which will mean the arrival of the general AI. “These tools will only temporarily increase human intelligence. They will make us smarter and more efficient for a while, and will generate enormous economic growth, but they are mainly replacing labor,” said Suleyman in his book ‘The coming wave: technology, power and the great dilemma of the 21st century. Gates assured in his interview with Fallon that “there will be some things that we reserve (to make humans). But in terms of producing, transporting and Cultivate foodover time those problems will be practically solved, “Gates said.

In Spain, cutting urban trees looks like national sport. These Swiss have just demonstrated that it is a mistake

by

There is only a handful of things that we know for sure about cities and one of them is that trees are key. And it is that the exposure to green spaces (and there the trees enter) “is associated with lower risks of mortality.” It’s simple, it’s clear, it’s easy. And, despite this, we do not take note. Wait, wait a moment … how? Yes and There are many reasons To do this: trees filter air pollutants, provide shadow, reduce ambient temperature in warm climates and encourage people to spend more time outdoors. They are a cheap and relatively accessible system to improve people’s lives. But, as I say, when planting trees it is not so easy. Among other things because there is no space. How can we plant trees to get maximum benefit? That is what They wondered Zurich ETH researchers. To do this, they examined high resolution data of the tree canopy to determine “the structure of the green tree spaces” within a radius of 500 meters of the place of residence of a person. Of six million people, actually. AND They crossed this urban data with health and mortality information from the neighborhoods of Europe and Asia that analyzed. What have you discovered? That both tree coverage in residential areas and its spatial distribution correlates with mortality. In fact, researchers They realized that the risk of mortality was “significantly lower in people living in neighborhoods with extensive, adjacent and well -interconnected areas of tree cups than in people who live in areas with less areas of fragmented tree glasses and with complex geometries.” This seems true, in addition, if we discount other factors such as age, wealth, gender or educational level. It is true that the data are correlational and, therefore, do not allow to establish causal relationships; But the effect size makes all this very promising. But, indeed, research is needed. “We are still in the early stages of this research”, The researchers explained. There are very basic things that are there to be clear: for example, they did not study the influence of specific factors such as pre -existing diseases, smoking or the same use of these green spaces. A big problem … that affects us especially. And I say it affects Spain because Bad care that urban trees are given here is An endemic problem. The causes are diverse, yes; But they can be summarized in three: few media, mismanagement and isolated political decisions of any current technical knowledge. Swiss study is just the last drop of a glass to be overflowing. Because we have known for a long time that trees help reduce atmospheric pollutants and mitigate the Urban heat island effect; But we don’t take it seriously. Nor do we go to take it.

Kaspersky has everything to protect us on the Internet from home

by

When we sail online, we are exposed to certain dangers that are difficult to fight. We are already used to seeing how there are large -scale data leaks, as well as continuous attacks of Phishing. Even shopping online or making a bank transfer, there may be risks for our data or our security. There are tools such as VPNs that are designed to give an extra security layer to our Internet traffic, as well as antivirus or systems that warn us of possible dangers in our Wi -Fi network. Of course, few services join these tools and others like Kasperksy, especially in regards to your premium plan. Now we have a great opportunity to get him: a year he goes out for 39.99 euros. Kaspersky Premium – Annual * Some price may have changed from the last review A tool to improve our Internet safety Kaspersky’s premium plan is the best that the brand has. Generally, it is priced at 79.99 euros a year, but right now it is reduced to 50%, that is, it costs 39.99 euros for the first year of subscription. Besides, has no permanenceso we can prove the service the first year and, if we are not satisfied, we lower ourselves whenever we want. What can we expect from this plan? One may think that it is only an antivirus for our PC (or telephone), But the reality is that it is much more. It has a system that warns us if there is any software in our team that is tracking us in some way, as well as protection for webcam and microphone to prevent someone from fying at home. Another point where Kaspersky is very interesting is when protecting our passwords, since it allows us store them and synchronize them between devices. In addition, it also has a tester that detects data leaks on the Internet, warning us if our data is among them. This supply of the Kaspersky Premium Plan includes a free year of Kaspersky Safe Kids, a tool designed so that our children can navigate or use your equipment safely. It has GPS tracking, filters for websites and even a system to manage time and use they give to its devices. Kaspersky Premium – Annual * Some price may have changed from the last review To all of the above, we must add that it includes a VPN, a service that is useful both at home and when we leave. For example, if we are going to use a public wifi or that of a hotel, using a VPN will offer us high security in a network that can entail more risks of all kinds.

Internet has been trying to locate Granada places that come out in a prohibited film starring a Nazi

by

“A film full of humanity without any trend.” With that overprinting phrase on the screen it starts ‘Solange du Lebst’. A “neither right -wing” manual “that, however, hides a Nazi propaganda film that did not come to be seen in Spain but, surprisingly, in Germans after World War II, where he unleashed a considerable scandal. Today is completely missing. ‘Solange du Lebst’ (in Spanish it could be translated by ‘While you live’) is the closest thing to a cursed film mixture and, at the same time, purely, propaganda. We are facing una movie comparable to which both sides of the war rolled In large quantities, each favoring yours. Those of the allied side are better known, since Hollywood He launched all his machinery so that even non -war movies such as the Westerns or the suspense cinema would insufferate the ideology that the allies were interested in propagating. On the Nazi side the Fiction and propaganda films They are less popular, however much documentaries such as ‘The triumph of the will’ have gone down in the history of cinema for the power of the propaganda imagery of Goebbels, which produced 1200 films, Many of them prohibited for decades. But films like ‘El Arrow Quex’, ‘I wait for you’, ‘President Krüger’ or ‘Kolberg’ were not as well known as their American counterparts due to their low film quality. In Spain, in fact, the laughible ‘race’, the milestone of Franco’s fiction code, than any of these. That is why it is not strange that it has not been heard about ‘Solange du Lebst’, that did not premiere in Spain and was barely seen in Germany. The producer, Eva Films (we are not going to get Nazi connotations in every detail, but well, there is the name of the producer, which she shares with that of Hitler’s couple) premiered it thanks to subterfuges as the aforementioned initial message. However, the daring to reach German screens After the Nazi defeatwhen the nation faced global ignonymy and a feeling of guilt, the country ranked, it resulted in a considerable box office failure that ruined the producer. The film disappeared from the rooms and never broadcast on television. Occasionally it has reappeared in very limited circuits, such as when it was published inadvertently in a collection of DVDs in Spain, ‘jewels of the history of cinema’. FTW Condor Legion In ‘Solange du Lebst’, a heroic and handsome pilot of the Condor Legion, the Air Force that Hitler sent to Spain to help Franco in the Civil warshe crashes into the fictional Andalusian town of Torralbán. There he will live a caste and sincere relationship with his caregiver while he remains injured and hidden in a cave, facing the fearsome international brigades who want to invade Spain and the wild Republicans who patrol the area. The film (which you can see complete, yes, in German, in the video on these lines), despite appearances, it is not a series B shot under co -production. There is a considerable media slack where, in addition, several names that would later be known internationally. The director and screenwriter Harald Reinl has an extensive filmography that arrives until 1982 and where there are from war dramas to family comedies, through ufological documentaries or literary adaptations of the classic mystery writer Edgar Wallace. The leading actress, Marianne Koch, would reach some international fame with Westerns as ‘for a handful of dollars’. The scarce scope of the film has not even given margin as to become a cult film, but its atmosphere in Spain has raised the curiosity of experts … and the locals. As The ideal newspaper accounttwo scholars carry Three years trying to unravel the mysteries of ‘Solange du Lebst’: They are Julio Grosso, professor of audiovisual communication at the University of Granada and Ralf Junkerjürgen, researcher at the University of Ratisbona. Together they decided to try which areas belonged to the locations of the film. To do this, they have been publishing in social networks photograms of the lost film and thanks to the collaboration of Internet users have located areas of Granada such as Los Arenales del Trevenque where the pilot, the old clinical hospital in San Cecilio, the Armilla Air Base, the Tablate bridge, the old road of Güéjar Sierra and El Castillo de Lácha. Purely Spanish areas that, however, did not prevent the film from being released in Spain. Why that unusual destiny? Although his argument left no doubt about his political orientation, neither this nor its atmosphere helped the film to be released in Spain. A possible reason, despite the fact that the Franco dictatorship was completely settled, is that In 1955 the regime was not interested in digging up old ghosts. The pacts of Madrid between Spain and the United States They had just signed in 1953and he was ending the international isolation to which he had submitted to the country. The last thing that interested Franco was his little Nazi propaganda. No matter how well photographed that Granada was.

In South Korea offered 14,000 euros to young people in exchange for them to get married. Young people did the same

by

With $ 14,000 you can cover holes, take a few sabbatical months to travel around the world or invest in that business that has been around your head for years. What you will not get is to match two South Koreans to marry, form a home and have children to help the country out of the deep crisis of birth in which it has been mired for years. We know it because in Korea there are administrations that already They have thrown out of a checkbook and reached those figures (more than 10,000 dollars) in their efforts to act as a casameros. All without success. Moreover, that commitment to administrations to encourage matches is having a peculiar effect: it has made singleness A true business. Question of love … and money. In his efforts to leave the demographic pothole in which he has been plunged for a long time, he has not hesitated to pull a check -up. Its reasoning is simple: if birth can be encouraged with money, the government is willing to put it on the table. In recent months the authorities of the country have proposed to deliver large ‘baby checks’ to its citizens, offer Fiscal incentives To families with children, expand parental permits or even guarantee that the new moms have access to select food. Another of the country’s great bets has been to match its young people. And that has gone so much to create appointment programs Designed specifically for single to find love how to make it easy at the economic level, offering money so that the cost of a romantic dinner is not an obstacle. Perhaps it sounds exaggerated, but there is a fact that explains it: in South Pareja and Bulality they go hand in hand. So much, that less than 5% From babies they are born out of marriage. How much money do we talk about? A lot A good part of the southern Korean pairing programs start from regional organizations, so that photography can vary from one area to another of the country; But it arrives with a quick turn by Google to see news from cities or districts that try to raise their birth rate with expensive pairing programs. Recently We talked to you of the Seoul case, where the Metropolitan Government studied to deliver 700 euros to the couples who marry there. It is a lot. Although not as much as in other cities. In Busan, one from the main ones Metropolitan Areas of South Korea and that is suffering the effects of the demographic crisis in a form particularly hardthey have gone a step further blessing the new couples with hundreds of dollars. What does that translate? In which money ceases to be an obstacle to throwing girlfriend (or boyfriend). In June The Korea Herald He informed That one of the districts of Busan, Saha-Gu, planned a pilot project with local singles born between 1981 and 2001 to which it offered 360 dollars (to spend on appointments) only for ‘doing Match ‘ With someone. That is, each couple who left the event grabbed by the hand and with plans to be added 700 dollars for their romance. A figure: $ 14,000. Those 360 ​​dollars per person to enjoy as a couple were only the first part of the SAHA-gu program. The idea was to increase support as the relationship progressed until you reach the great wedding gift: 20 million wones In advance for couples who give themselves the ‘yes I want’, about $ 13,600. The district was even willing to offer newly married a larger deposit if they decided to buy a house or help them with rent. Such a bet is better understood in the light of the demographic tables of the Metropolitan City of Busan: if at the beginning of the 90s it passed from the 3.8 million inhabitantsin 2010 it was at 3.4 million. The trend does not clash with that of the country as a whole, which At the end of 2024 It became a “aging super society”, with 20% of its population above 65 years. Do these aid work? That was the big question that was driving … and just answered The Wall Street Journal (TWSJ) with A report in which the title is almost a sentence: “Not even a governmental aid of $ 14,000 can make the single South Korea marry.” Despite the promise of receiving a wedding gift of $ 14,000, the Saha-Gu program was not very successful. TWSJ assures that no participant demanded that reward. And that Saha-Gu is just one of the aid to which couples can opt. TWSJ remembers that not all support leaves administrations and that there are also religious companies or organizations that try to reverse the country’s demographic crisis. Two examples are the construction company Booyoung Group, which offered $ 75,000 to employees who have a child; and the Yoido full gospel churchwhich gives its members almost $ 1,400. The big question. With such incentives the question is evident. Why don’t South Koreans marry? Why do your birth continue well below of that of years ago? Part of the answer are social and cultural changes. TWSJ He quotes a survey recent that shows that three fifths of the South Koreans with employment do not see the slightest problem in not going through the altar, a factor to which others of an economic nature are added, such as the long working daysincreased cost of living or how will be The parenting of children in a society characterized by their demand level and competitiveness. Another key are The difficulties with which women are to rejoin to the labor market after being mothers. In fact there are courtship programs that have ended up suspending precisely because they could not gather a sufficient number of interested women. Other young people rule out simply registering for the heavy bureaucracy that accompanies this kind of initiatives. “It’s more problematic than you imagine,” Recognize one to TWSJ. Is the government … Read more

Everything makes us take the 256 GB version for 404 euros With a 25 W charger as a gift if we ask the Chat of experts on the website or in the Samsung app, where they are also available. And eye: for 39.90 euros more, we can take a Galaxy Fit3 or some Buds faithwhat we choose. * Some price may have changed from the last review Thus samsung money earns: the secret is on the iPhone Galaxy A36, a cheaper option that has nothing to envy If we want a mid -range of Samsung, but we want to spend a little more, the ideal option for us is the Galaxy A36. This device is very similar to the previous: It has the same screen, the same battery, the same IP67 protection and a photographic section with a small variation (the wide angle is 8 megapixels for the 12 of the Galaxy A56). The main difference of it is found in your soc, That in this case is the Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 of Qualcomm. In addition, this device arrives in two different configurations that in this case also change the RAM memory: 6 GB of RAM and 128 GB of storage, on the one hand; 8 GB of RAM and 256 GB on the other. It arrives in four colors: Black, Gray, Light Violet and Light Green. As with the previous one, your memory promotion is also applied here. In this way, the 256 GB version of the Galaxy A36 leaves for 379 euros. At this price, we can discount additional 30 euros if we pay with Bizum and 10% extra when making the purchase through the Samsung app. This leaves us the phone in 314 euros that we can also accompany A free 25 w charger thanks to the expert chatboth on the web and in the Samsung app. Here is also the promotion of the Galaxy Fit3 and Galaxy Buds Fe, which would come out, which we choose from the two, for additional 39.90 euros. * Some price may have changed from the last review Some of the links of this article are affiliated and can report a benefit to Xataka.

Science has tricks to see it without risk

by

Saturday 29 The sun will darken hidden by the moon. It is a partial eclipse that will be visible from an important fraction of the southern hemisphere: almost all of Europe (including Spain) can see this concealment, as can also be seen from part of North America, Africa, Asia and even from a small fraction of South America. Solar eclipses are astronomical phenomena that hardly go unnoticed. Time has spent since these events ceased to be a sign of evil agüero, but we also know that they have a certain associated risk: the risk of damaging our view If we do not properly protect our eyes. Looking directly at the sun is never a good idea. But during an eclipse, even less. As Francisco Doménech and José A. Álvarez explain in The countrythe sun emits its light in a wide segment of the electomagnetic spectrum, a range of frequencies that expands beyond the visible spectrum, entering the infrared and ultraviolet. UVA rays (ultraviolet-a) from which we have to protect ourselves in summer and in certain circumstances are an example of how these invisible rays can still affect ourselves if we do not realize at the time. The energy transmitted by the different spectrum frequencies is inversely proportional to its wavelength. That is, shorter wave frequencies such as ultraviolet carry more energy than the longest wave, such as infrared. Despite this, both extremes can have a negative impact on the physical integrity of our eye. What do we expose ourselves? Looking at the eclipse without proper protection can expose permanent damage in the retina and in the cornea. Damages that can even come out with the loss of sight. According to Geoffrey Bradford, Professor of Pediatrics and Ophthalmology at the University of Virginia Occidental, In an article for The conversationour eyes have a natural capacity to adapt to different luminosity conditions. However, DIRECT OBSERVATION OF THE SUN It can exceed the ability of the eyeball to protect yourself from excess light. In the cornea, says Bradford, there is a risk of solar or actinic keratosis. This disorder can make our sight cloud and cause pain. This injury would be reversible but may require several days for your cure. The problems in the retina are not painful but they can be more serious, Bradford adds. Retinopathies can affect our sightcreating a blind spot in our central vision, visual distortions and the alteration of our color perception. An additional problem is that if we look at the eclipse we will not take pain even though our eyes will be suffering. This can generate a false sense of security while we harm our view. See it safely If we want to see the eclipse directly we will need glasses specifically designed for the observation of this type of event. Sun glasses offer protection against solar rays in everyday situations, but eclipses are not such a thing, so in practice their protection of nothing serves us in these situations. Even if we wear eclipse glasses, we must make sure they are duly approved and comply with the international ISO 12312-2 standard. The National Geographic Institute (IGN) offers us on your website Additional information, including points of sale, to take into account if we want to acquire these glasses. IGN himself also warns us that we must avoid observing the sun with devices such as cameras, or instruments such as telescopes or prismatic that are not prepared for the observation of these phenomena, something that is only achieved through special filters, not as usually used in other contexts. If we do not have specialized glasses, we can still observe the eclipse indirectly. If we walk through a wooded zone during the eclipse we can see a curious phenomenon in THE SHADOW THAT PROJECT THE TREES LEAVES. If certain conditions are given, we can see how the shades of the eclipse can be seen among the shadows. Also We can cause this effect Using, for example, the holes of a strainer. We can, for example, use a Stenopic projector, which we can manufacture ourselves with a cardboard box, aluminum foil, Celoy scissors. NASA explains how In a video. A last trick that IGN offers us It requires a mirror, a wall and a paper that we must also cut a hole. It is enough to cover the mirror with a role in which we will have previously made a hole between five and ten millimeters in diameter. With it we must reflect sunlight on a flat wall in which the image of the eclipse will be projected. Saturday’s eclipse is just the appetizer of A complete menu of eclipses that awaits us in the next three years. This eclipses parade includes two total eclipses that in August 2026 and 2027 They will be visible from a good part of the Iberian Peninsula, and an eclipse annular in January 2028 also visible from our environment.
