Nothing’s CEO wants to conquer the mobile market with crazy designs. He has told us his very complex plan to achieve it

by

Carl Pei is one of the CEO that gives off the most in the technology industry. You saw a cowboy and basic shirt, they warn me that it is shy and, after a few minutes of interview, we end up smiling, commenting that “the vibes” are the future, and remembering the old days of Cyanogenmod out of formalities. Those who have been in El Cotarro to know Carl from that Old OnePlus who only sold his phones by invitation. With Nothing, the approach is different. A London company with the focus on design and with a clear slogan: “Make Tech Fun Again”. Looking up Nothing began with a Phone (1) that attacked the mid -range. He continued with a Phone (2) that took a specifications and, in 2025, attacks the market with a mobile of 799 euros with a high range. I can’t help wanting to know why. Carl explains that for Nothing, both the Phone (1) like him Phone (2) They were flagships. It sounds like a statement Marketinianbut it is not: “For a company, a flagship is the best mobile you can do.” For the first time, they believe they are at an engineering point in which they can compete with the best in the market, a point where they are finally ready. Sailing a high range is risky, and throwing it being oriented to a concrete niche, it is even more. Nothing is not in volume, it is not desperate to launch product and points directly to “the most creative users.” All this sounds very good, but it is worth asking if A company can be profitable and sustainable living as “creative users”. “We are focused on new generations of consumption. We focus on people who are interested in technology, design and creativity. Our consumer is much younger than the average consumer, it is around 26 years.” Does the strategy work? Yes. Carl tells me that they have folded the volume of business, exceeding one billion dollars in the accumulated sales. He knows that they have been focusing on software for years, but they intend to double software investment to be even more attractive. They also have an important investment behind, in which investors take a direct role in the decisions made by the company. “Sometimes it is uncomfortable, because they give their opinion in front of the rest of the members of our table. But I think it is really important to find ways to keep us connected with this base, especially when the company grows. It is difficult to hear uncomfortable truths when you have that type of structure, we always know what people want us.” The present Carl Pei during the presentation of Nothing Phone (3) and the Nothing Earphone (1). Image | Xataka With Nothing Phone (3) comes the whopping seven years of security updates and five software. Maybe it’s time for Get out of stopping a mobile per year if mobiles are getting older and more. Or maybe not. “On average, people renew phone every three years. So there will always be someone thinking about the following. But we are also seeing a trend of people who want to keep their device for a longer time. That is why we want to give even longer support.” The phone also lands with an integration of quite discreet. Essential Search Essential Space Minor translation functions Is enough to compete, taking into account that There are already those who integrate the AI Even in the most basic apps of the system (telephone, keyboard, camera …)? Carl is clear that Nothing’s approach is cautious, because they see “a lot of hype” in the market. It drops that, even if they have launched these functions, “the Roadmap is long, there will be updates and updates.” But, beyond promising that in the future AI will be more complete, it is not afraid to admit that it agrees. “This is almost like a hygiene factor, right? We have to take care of that basic part, but that is not what excites us most. What really excites us is how we apply this new technology to redefine the way people use products, especially in the software part. But yes, that basic work is necessary. You have to do it. The market is doing it and I think we can do much more.” Image | Xataka To close the block, I ask Carl for something practically inevitable: How are geopolitical tensions between the United States and China livingand if your supply chain is being affected. The Nothing Phone box (3) shows a clear “Made in China”, so there is nothing to hide. Here he tells us that most of their products are manufactured in India, and some of them in China. Apart from this, he affirms that they are in the process to start producing in other parts of the world. It does not seem too worried, and the reason is simple. “Being a startup, we can be quite agile and reagents, whatever happens.” The future of smartphone Nothing Phone (3). Image | Xataka A question that I like to ask the main responsible for Tech companies is how they look in the future. And being, honest, the answers are usually little concrete. It is something completely normal: neither should get wet with compromised statements or, really, it is easy to predict with where today’s technology is going. But Carl is a Jugónand it is clear that the future of the smartphone goes through a single app capable of controlling everything. That agriculture that we have spent so much speaking throughout 2025. The key is that, When everything is … what will be the reason to decide between one device or another? It clarifies that it is still distant, and that no one would buy a phone without apps today. The key will be on the path that is to achieve it, a path to combine and melt all software and hardware. “I think Essential Search is a good example. … Read more

Between 2026 and 2028 Spain will become a paradise of eclipses. And we have new maps to know where they will look better

by

The 2026 and 2027 will stand out in the astronomical: Two total eclipses in two consecutive years that can be seen from different areas of Spain. And if someone had been wanting more, 2028 keeps us a new eclipse, this annular, which can also be seen from the Iberian Peninsula. Many are already expectant, including experts from the National Geographic Institute (IGN). New maps. We refer in particular to those in charge of preparing the new maps, a new official guide to not lose detail of the three eclipses that await us in the coming years. The maps can be consulted on the IGN himself, In a special section Dedicated to this tool. 2026, 2027 and 2028. Between 2026 and 2028 we will have the opportunity to see three eclipses. The first of them will produce the August 12, 2026 And it will be visible as a total eclipse around a diagonal strip that will cross the peninsula between the western zone of Asturias and northern Castellón, and which will also cover part of the Balearic archipelago. The second eclipse will also be in summer, the August 2, 2027 And it will also be total. This time the Total Dark Strip will touch the Peninsula in the south, between Cádiz and Almería, including the coast of the province of Malaga. The third eclipse will arrive January 26, 2028will be annulled and its epicenter will move from the southern half of the coast of Huelva to the border between the provinces of Castellón and Valencia. A complete guide. IGN’s work offers us more than a visualizer, it constitutes a small guide to not miss key details when enjoying these eclipses. In addition to the maps, these guides include animations that explain, for example, how the shadow of our moon moves on the surface of the globe. Eclipse visualizer of August 2026. IGN/CNIG. Visualizer The visualizer The eclipse is probably the most interesting part of the new tool. It is a dynamic map in which we can see the evolution of the “stain” that leaves the umbra (the part of the shadow where it is complete and therefore the eclipse is total) over Spain and surroundings. We can also select a location and look for details such as the starting time eclipse, the total start, the maximum eclipse, and the end of the total eclipse; Elevation and Azimuth of the Sun, and the visibility profile depending on the elevation of the terrain around us. Planning issue. There are just over 13 months left for the first of These three eclipses But good planning can help us a lot not to lose detail of the eclipse. The last total eclipse, seen from the United States just over a year ago reminded us of these events. This It can be seen in the amount of displacements and in high hotel occupancy seen in the total concealment areas. To this it should be added that the two total eclipses of the coming years will occur in the middle of August, so an even greater number of displacements can be expected if possible. Nor does it appear to remember security measures, especially because of the fact that the stocks of specialized glasses For eclipses in the weeks prior to the event and those we use in previous events do not have to be used for the next.

I have tried the Glyph Matrix of Nothing Phone (3). And now I want it on all market phones

by

I’ve been using Nothing Phone (3) For approximately two weeks. It is the most expensive nothing in the company’s history, but also the best they have ever made. The English startup claims to be ready to compete with the bestwithout giving up the characteristic that best defines them: design. After two years betting on the glyph interface at the rear, A LED pattern that was illuminated in a personalized way when receiving notificationsin this third generation he dies with a good end. Matrix Glyph. What is this. As you can see in the superior image, the Nothing Phone (3) has a small upper screen composed of a total of 489 micro-leds. It is the first important step, the LEDs stop functioning as an indicative pattern and become part of a major whole: a circular mini panel. Although the new Glyph Matrix is ​​automatically activated (I will now tell you when and how), there is a small button in the rear that allows you to activate it in situations where you do not have to be on. What is it for. Last year, this interface only served as a notification pattern. Now it also indicates them, but it goes much further. Allows you to configure, one by one, the system apps and how they will show notifications NOTIFY OF LOST CALLS Works as volume indicator Indicates the chamber timer back It serves as … flashlight And it has … games Nothing mixes in the games section the games with useful functions. This is the list namely. Clock Bottle game Battery percentage Chronometer Mirror (literally is a mirror of what the main camera sees) Solar clock Paper and scissors The white circuit you see on the right side of the phone is the button to activate the interface. Just press the button that I just talked to you to activate the screen, and it is necessary to leave clusted to start working. Infigurable at the end. I have not been surprised only the amount of functions that it has as an indicator of useful functions, but the degree of customization that allows. This section opens the door to create rules. Extremely specific rules. Imagine what you want notifications of WhatsApp WhatsApp notifications of one person (or number) Who arrive, just, when that person writes a keyword The filter that allows is spectacular. We can add personalized icons for each of the apps or contacts and even use a photograph to make it and show it in the screw (I do not recommend it much, the pixels are pixels and it is not distinguished very well). Why is it important. Nothing’s proposal, beyond curiosity and extravagance, is important. Shows that the concept of notifications LED can remain alive, and in a better way than ever Integrates a second screen that barely consumes energy Open the doors to the developers use the nothing SDK to bring the functions of their apps specifically At a time when innovating seems almost impossible, Nothing has evolved a system that was simply good, towards a more complex and real utility solution.

If China attacks Taiwan, Russia and North Korea will also do so … but to Europe

by

An interview of the New York Times It has opened the possibility of a scenario that concerns a large number of nations. NATO general secretary Mark Rutte, explained The closest thing to a chess board where the movement of a key piece produced a geopolitical earthquake of extraordinary dimensions, according to the leader, everything would begin if China finally decides Attack Taiwan. What would come later would be the closest thing to world war. The context. The extensive interview He came to a key point: the fear of an escalation of Chinese military intervention on the island of Taiwan It has increased drastically He launched his invasion On a large scale of Ukraine. The approach: the war has served as possible model How both taipéi and the international community could answer if Beijing decides to invade. Of course, Rutte took the opportunity to spread the message we listen to incessantly: rearmamentbut from a disturbing perspective. Routte word. “There is more and more awareness, and let’s not be naive about it: if xi jinping attack Taiwan, he would first make sure his smallest partner in all this, Vladimir Putin, and say: ‘Hey, I will do this and I need you to keep them occupied in Europe attacking NATO territory’”, Routte declared. “It is very likely that this is how this advances. And to dissuade them, we need to do two things. One is that it, collectively, is so strong that the Russians never do it. And the second, collaborate with the Indo -Pacific, something that President Trump is promoting vehemently,” added. The strategic clamp. We have coming counting These months. As the military pressure China on Taiwan reaches levels unprecedentedthat key date of 2027 It is glimpsed on the horizon and, meanwhile, Western strategists begin to fear a more gloomy scenario: than Beijing, when launched into an eventual invasion of the island, activate its Russian partner to open a second front in Europe. That was about Rutte’s wordsthat this coordination would not be an improvised act, but a deliberate play. They remembered the Analysts on Twz That, although it seems alarmist, the warning fits with the growing alignment between Moscow and Beijing, which not only share strategic interests, but also reinforce each other in their respective wars: Russia with Chinese technical support in Ukraine, and China benefiting from the distraction that represents the European conflict for US military resources. NATO troops The 2027 horizon. A few months ago We point that Western intelligence reports agree that both China and Russia would be working with similar temporal horizons. Xi Jinping would have ordered the EPL armed forces to be ready to Take Taiwan in 2027a period supported For the CIA and by The statements of the then head of the IndoPacom, when talking about the call “Davidson Window.” In turn, the Rutte ownas well as high controls military from Germany and Ukraine, they argue that Russia could reconstitute your abilities To attack NATO territory Towards 2029. That is, by the end of this decade, both powers would be (it does not mean that it will be so) in technical and logistics conditions to open A double front which would test the American reaction capacity. In practice, this would mean that any Chinese offensive on Taiwan It could coincide With a Russian offensive on the eastern flank of Europe, forcing the United States to divide its resources between two simultaneous war theaters. Pressures on Taiwan. The United States Indo-Pacific Command data (INDOPACOM) leaves no doubt: Chinese military pressure on Taiwan has Increased 300% Annual, with Naval maneuversexercises amphibians, drills landing, rocket and operations releases of aircraft carriers Around the island. Admiral Samuel Paparo warned of a “boiling point” that could crystallize in a real operation if Beijing considers that Washington is too dispersed to respond effectively. Although some analysts consider unlikely that Russia is ready Right to attack NATO, others recognize that even a credible threat or hybrid war actions could force the United States to mobilize resources preventively. And the simple expectation of conflict would already be enough to dilute the American response capacity in the Pacific. Iran and North Korea. Beyond Russia, experts agree that China has other “saturation actors” to divert US attention and media. The recent offensive With B-2 Spirit bombings on Iranian nuclear facilities, it shows that Washington already has part of its arsenal committed in the Middle East. The maintenance of Two groups of aircraft carriers In the region, along with the sustained war Against the hutis In Yemen and the constant tension with Iran, they already suppose a drainage considerable operation. To this is added the latent threat North Koreawhose structural dependence on China makes it a strategic pawn willing to sow chaos if Beijing demands it. Neither Pyongyang nor Moscow would have to launch into a total war: it would be enough with actions of “Gray Zone” Sufficiently to force a reaction from the United States and its allies, dispersing strength, anticipating conflicts and undermining the logistics and tactical concentration that would require a Taiwan effective defense. Wear strategy. The key to the scenario that is emerging is not in the immediate brute force, but in asymmetric deterrence. China knows that a Taiwan invasion is not simply a military operation, but a total geostrategic bet. To have any chance of success, It must guarantee that the United States cannot concentrate your forces quickly in the region. Russia, North Korea and even latent conflicts in the Middle East are part of this architecture. In that context, a weakened, distracted or forced to defend their eastern flank while Washington has to operate on several fronts, would offer the “Window of opportunity” that Beijing needs. Hence the revitalization of the European rearmethe reinforcement of the Defenses in Finland and Poland, and the Increase in spending Military in almost all the countries of the Alliance, are not only reactive measures against Russia, but essential elements of the strategy to also deter China. Washington and unpredictable deterrence. The Trump … Read more

How to add bibliographic quotes and references in a work or report with artificial intelligence

by

Let’s explain How to add quotes and bibliographic references in a work or report with artificial intelligence. Creating appointments with AI is quite easy, and you will be able to do so with Chatgpt as with COPILOT, Deepseek, Gemini or any other chatbot. To create the citations, you will only need the bonding bond or reference you have used As a reference for your work. Then, at AI you can ask you to use it, and then you will generate the text using different summons formats. Remember that it is still easier to use Tools to cite your bibliographyalthough the AI ​​is gradually arriving there. Create appointments for university jobs with AI To create bibliographic appointments and references in a job or report you only have to use a very simple command For AI. Basically, you have to ask you to make an appointment, and add the link or reference used. The prompt that we have used is as follows: I want you to believe me a citation for a university job of the link/book (reference) When you write this command, You must specify what kind of appointment is itif it is a web link or a book. And then, where we have put (reference) in the prompt put the link to the web or the name and author of the book. Only this will be enough. When you do, The AI ​​will create several appointments in several summons of summons. In fact, it will put both the reference to put in the bibliography and the way you must add the appointment within your text. You can also ask for concrete citation styles. You can specify it in the main prompt, but you can also ask for it later. You shouldn’t even put all the full prompt again, if after the answer you write something like “and in Harvard style?” Within the same chat, the AI ​​will know that you mean citations, and will generate one in the format you ask. You can also add several links To believe you several citations. For that, tell him something like “I want you to believe me a citation for a university work of the following links/books”, and then Chatgpt or the chosen AI will tell you to go ahead, and you can respond with the list of links.

Wimbledon has replaced all his line judges with a success. The only problem is that tennis players do not believe it

by

Wimbledon has replaced This year for the first time in its history to its line judges for a technology that is an evolution of the traditional eye of the hawk. Despite the accuracy it brings, several tennis players They have expressed their discontentespecially following the controversy with the party of Kartal and Pavlyuchenkova. What’s happening. Several tennis players have publicly expressed their doubts about the electronic system. Jack Draper and Emma Raducanu, the British numbers, have questioned the accuracy of decisions, while the Switzerland Belinda Bencic It was more direct: “I do not trust the system. Nor is it that I want to speak it too much, but it is really stressful.” The reluctance about this new system are increasingly common in tennis. Although the hawk’s eye has accompanied the games for many years already, The replacement of the judges It marks a general discontent in several professionals of this sport and fans. AND The case of Pavlyuchenkova He has put the situation more inri. Failure in three key situations. The incident that has been playing the most in networks was during the match between the British Sonay Kartal and the Russian Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova on the central track. With the marker matched 4-4, a Kartal ball clearly came out, but the Hawk-Eye system remained silent. Without the usual sound signal of “out”, the referee ordered to repeat the point, causing The frustration of Pavlyuchenkova: “You have stolen the game.” The ruling lasted 6 minutes and 49 seconds, during which the system lost three decisions. The AI ​​is working. The organization has revealed that the problem of Pavlyuchenkova was actually a human error: an operator accidentally deactivated part of the cameras with a click on their computer. Sally Bolton, executive director of All England Club, He has defended that “the ball monitoring system has worked optimally and effectively” throughout the tournament. After the incident, they have modified the software so that the cameras cannot be deactivated manually when there is an ongoing game. How the system works. The Live Electronic Line Calling (Live Elc) that Wimbledon uses is An evolution of the traditional hawk eye that we have been seeing since 2007. The key difference is that it now works in real time: use a network of cameras with artificial vision that tracks the ball and automatically emits an “out” when it goes out. Before, the hawk’s eye was only used to review decisions when players requested it; Now he is the main referee of all lines. It has been working for years. Studies show that electronic systems in sport are significantly more precise than human judges. An investigation He revealed that line referees make mistakes in 27% of cases where the check -up review is required, which is equivalent to an error every 17.4 games. The system has demonstrated its reliability in multiple sports for more than a decade, and both the Australian Open and the US Open have integrated it in its entirety in recent years. AI and arbitration, whenever complaints. Resistance to technology in arbitration is not exclusive to tennis. THE VAR IN FOOTBALL It generates constant controversies. In addition, Hawk-Eye is also implemented in volleyball, Cricket, and even in football for ghost goals, situations in which there has also been controversy with technology. And it is that sport is usually very reticating to technological changes. We don’t trust technology. Machines fail less than humans, but Perception is usually different. And it is that many problems attributed to AI are actually errors in the implementation or in human decisions that accompany the system, as has happened this time in Wimbledon. Technology is not infallible, but it is statistically more reliable than any available human alternative. And why don’t we trust? According to Gina Neff, a teacher in Cambridge, “right now, in many areas in which AI affects our lives, we believe that humans understand the context much better than machines,” he says. “The machine makes decisions based on the set of rules for which it has been programmed. But people are really good when it comes to multiple external values ​​and considerations as well – what is the right decision may not seem like the fair decision,” he continues. “It is the intersection between people and systems that we have to do well.” “We have to use the best of both to make the best decisions.” Cover image | Shep Mcallister In Xataka | 150 years ago the English played the first football matches in Spain.

Ouigo excuses himself from the collapse in the bird and believes to know who is the culprit

by

They were “13 hours trapped in the middle of a plain”. And, since then, the Government, Ouigo and Adif are trapped in a major battle. Specifically, to find a culprit to the collapse of high Andalusian speed last week. Thousands of affected travelers, many unknowns and only a safe thing: nobody wants to peeled. “A Sinking”. “How to attribute responsibility in the sinking of a road to stuck cars, something frequent and habitual.” This is how Ouigo has described in a statement, collected by Europa Pressthe report derived from the collapse of the high speed that was lived on June 30 when hundreds of travelers from the Andalusian corridor their trains were stopped But, above all, when the passengers of one of those trains spent the night in the bird, No water and without being rescued. That report has elaborated Adif And he points out that an Ouigo train was to blame for the collapse of the network. According to the infrastructure manager, the French company train “lost the check with the signal systems standing on the road.” That caused four other trains to stop, causing the dominated effect already conspired. Adif points to Ouigo … The report, collected by The worldHe points out that the French train stop accumulated up to five trains in seven kilometers of tracks. The manager explains that the catenary tension is designed to feed a train in motion but not to keep five trains active at the same point. In that case, there is a risk of over -overtime. When this happens, the train is disconnected from the catenary to avoid greater risks but causes a tension drop in the line. It is something like lowering the leads at home so that appliances do not shrink with a voltage rise. The whole system is controlled by the pantograph. This manages the electricity between the train and the catenary and is the one that is supposed to be in the Avant de Renfe that remained in the middle of nowhere. That is, Adif points to Ouigo as the seed that ended up creating chaos. … ouigo blames Adif … “This cannot be used as an alleged cause of the tension drop in the catenary. The infrastructure must normally contemplate this type of situations.” Ouigo said in the aforementioned statement to subsequently underpin the phrase with the previous metaphor. The company emphasizes that Alstom’s MEPs, the trains with those operating in Spain, are one of the “most reliable and insurance models in Europe” while emphasizing that they will collaborate in any request for information that is requested from ADIF to clarify what happened. … And the government puts the eye in ouigo. The mention of trains safety is not accidental. Last Wednesday (July 2), at a meeting between Addar and the PSOE, María Jesús Montero, Vice President of the Government and Minister of Finance, was hunted by an open microphone. There he could say that the maintenance of “the ouigos these” was not correct. “We from Renfe remove them, which do not remove the trains from the tracks,” Montero was heard to tell various representatives of adding, in words collected by the media, among which is 20 minutes. “Apparently there is a problem too, well, of those operators, and I plan to raise it. I do not know if there is a certain sabotage, I cannot understand it, I am a user of that bird, it is my usual means of transport,” Montero insisted. More investment with canons flying In addition to defending themselves, from Ouigo they have insisted to Adif on taking into account their demands of greater investment in the maintenance of the infrastructure. They point out that the situation lived last week is “unpublished and unacceptable”, in the words of Helene Valenzuela, CEO of the company in Spain, during the IV Mobility Forum organized by The economist. They ensure that the projected image directly affects high speed and believes that The ADIF Plan It is not enough because “you cannot identify all the weak points of the network.” That is why they demand a greater investment at the time that the canons that the manager wants to apply to the operators for the use of the infrastructure. Until now, Ouigo has pointed to the canons as the main reason why they are not profitable on their arrival in Spain. That absence of profitability has been denounced by the Government who even warned that would denounce Ouigo against Europe for unfair competition.
