Fry taxes to empty houses and second residences

by

Madrid or Barcelona are not the only major European metropolis that They look with trouble his Residential Market. In London they deal with some triggered rentals (some study place the average price in almost 40 pounds by m2), the pressure exerted by the foreign investors and tens of thousands of empty properties. Already in 2023 his mayor, Sadiq Khan, talked about “scandal” which supposes that in the British capital there were 30,000 houses and floors without use while its inhabitants faced “a housing crisis”. To solve it, in London they have Moved file Using one of its great tools: the tax burden. Retouching taxes. The news The newspaper progresses The Telegraph: The authorities of Wandswortha district of London, have decided to update their taxes penalizing those owners who have empty houses and apartments in their territory. To be more precise, to the municipal rates of homes that remain more than a year empty and without furnished will be applied A 100% surcharge. The measure will be adopted from April and confirms the effort of the British authorities for taking the properties that are now unoccupied to the rent or sale market. Until now, in Wandsworth, disuse housing already faced a similar surcharge, but as long as they remained empty for more than two years, a ‘grace period’ that will now be cut in half. More empty time, more paid. A 100% increase is considerable, but those who maintain disused properties for longer will risk much larger penalties. According to The Telepraghthe owners of houses that have been empty for five years will see how that percentage rises to 200% and in the case of the properties that are not used for a decade, it will further shoot, to 300%. The rates will also be more burdensome for those who have second homes, furnished properties but are not used as the main home. In those cases, twice the corresponding municipal tax will be charged, although the standard contemplates Some exceptions. For example, if the owners are conditioned by their work, as is the case with the personnel of the Armed Forces or the caregivers. What is the goal? To tackle the problems of the residential market, which in the case of Wandsworth is also found with particularly low taxes. The British press Precise That with the measure the authorities seek to penalize the abandonment of properties, encourage their owners to sell or rent empty houses and dissuade foreign investors who are made with homes they do not use. “The objective is to ensure that the homes are inhabited or rented. Many people want to live and Wandsworth and we want to use all the powers we can to increase the number of homes in which people can reside,” Aydin Dkerdem explainsLabor councilor. In his opinion, it could even be discussed whether to double the municipal tax does not imply a fiscal burden “high enough. Are there so unoccupied houses? In May 2023 the office of the mayor of London He spoke of around “30,000 empty homes for a long time” and required that the districts of Kensignton and Chelsea presented a particularly high concentration. Only there would be about 1,600 properties with a total value that exceeded 2.2 billion pounds. In Westminster there were around 1,100 homes with a value that, in the market two years ago, was around 1.7 billion pounds. Is there more data? Yes. Action on empty homes assures That the total number of unoccupied housing is much higher and among them includes even social properties, “emptied real estate to allow their demolition and replacement for new houses in ‘neighborhood regeneration’ programs. The Telegraph Precise That with the data of the 33 local authorities of the city on the table, we can speak of around 36,200 empty properties for a long time. And slide another figure to older interests: only in Wandsworth the number of second residences has increased exponentially since 2023, going from just under 600 throughout the district to touch the 1,400 today. “It’s a scandal”. In addition to breaking up data, in mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, has openly complained about the number of properties unused in a city that has seen how their rentals sneaked into the top of The rankings European prices, with clearly forecasts up. “It is a scandal that so many houses so necessary in London are empty in the midst of a housing crisis,” regretted The councilor in 2023 before claiming specific measures and “the return of powers” so that the municipalities can act via taxes. “Not only would it deter absent international investors, but would release homes throughout the capital for Londoners,” I cried. It’s not The first time that the local United Kingdom authorities ask for greater margin to act before empty floors. In fact, the new leveling and regeneration law allows Since 2024 Collect more taxes on unemployed house owners for more than a year. Beyond Wandsworth … and the United Kingdom. Empty homes are not an exclusive problem of London. Action on Empy Homes estimates that in the whole of England they are counted by hundreds of thousands And not a few of them, according to the agency’s estimates, have been in that state for a long time. Hence Wandsworth has not been the only one to move. In Cornwall They have also raised apply severe surcharges to second residences, a measure that has also been put on the table In Wales u Oxford. The newspaper Standard He quotes policies on the same line in Westminster and Hackney, which announced Just a year ago: “Any house that has remained empty for at least 12 months will be charged twice the usual tax rate.” Until then the surcharge was limited to disused houses for more than 24 months. The United Kingdom is not the only one that has moved to loosen the tension of the residential market with the help of unemployed homes. In Brussels, with thousands of empty apartments, they have considered going beyond and … Read more

A 41 km fiber optic cable

by

Five months after Ukraine crossed the Russian border in the first land invasion of Russia since World War II, the Kursk region has become the stage of some of the most heinous fighting of war. It makes sense, since it not only symbolizes Ukrainian resistance, but has a key strategic weight in any negotiation of high fire where it seeks to use the Russian territory as an asset negotiator. The 12,000 North Korean soldiers deployed and the waves of tanks attacks were giving an advantage to Russia. However, Ukraine has found an invention. Drones, tanks and tactics. The New York Times had a few hours ago In a report from the war zone that the fighting in Kursk evoke the brutality of the battles in Bakhmut and Avdiivka, with tactics that mix mass advances of infantry and modern technology such as guided drones. Ukraine had achieved Limit the effectiveness of radio controlled dronesbut the new Russian devices are representing a persistent threat. On the battlefield, tens of thousands of these unmanned devices constantly seek objectives, while tanks and Russian armored vehicles advance in those organized waves. They said in the times that the confrontations are so intense that Ukrainian soldiers report the mental collapse of gunners After hours of continuous combat, with landscapes marked by innumerable bodies and destroyed equipment. Before this perspective, the nation has found something. A revolutionary system. The 414 Brigade of unmanned attack systems of Ukraine, known as Ptakhy Madiara or Magyar’s Birds, has revealed something unpublished in the war: A FPV drone (First-Person View) connected by a fiber optic cable that allows an operability of up to 41 kilometers (It has a reel that extends as the drone moves), thus marking an unprecedented technological milestone, since it is the first time that this type of explosive drones with cable “arrives” at such a distance. Its innovative design guarantees invulnerable control to the so -called “electronic war”, that is, to electromagnetic interference and discretion against Russian signal intelligence systems, significantly expanding the operational range of these tiny explosive drones. The new invention Mass production and applications. From Ukraine has confirmed the production of 1,100 drones of this type In the next lot, with an estimated monthly capacity of 1,000 units. These devices are designed to attack long -range artillery and medium -range air defense systems, exceeding the battery limitations and electronic warfare that the previous models restricted. In addition, the mass production capacity and the low cost relative position these devices from now as an innovative transformative tactical and operational weapon. Impulse in the military technological career. ANDl Development of this invention also highlights the role of war in Ukraine As a catalyst for technological advances in unmanned systemsnot only in countries directly involved, but globally. The technological competition between Ukraine and Russia in this area is intense and has allowed all kinds of more or less innovative ideas, although none of the parties has achieved a decisive advantage so far. FPV drones with optical fiber are, therefore, an example of that impact of technological innovation on the modern battlefield. Plus: lo We count a while ago. In view of Concerns about possible restrictions from China to the supply of critical components for drones, the appearance of this and other technologies Lists for mass production indicates that the Ukrainian industry maintains an efficient supply. If you want also, the progress is an indirect sign of the resilience and adaptation capacity of the nation’s technological sector, even in adverse conditions. Strategic and potential advantages. About it Robert Brovdi has spokenMagyar’s Birds commander, who has highlighted the advantages offered by these drones, such as Its ability to overcome electronic defenses and achieve great distance goals. A development that represents, not only an advance in drone design, but also a strengthening of the tactical arsenal of Ukraine, capable of decisively impacting the battle fronts. In short, the 41 -kilometer fiber optic controlled drone of 41 kilometers not only redefines the operational limits of unmanned systems, but also symbolizes ingenuity and adaptation capacity in a context of technological warfare where the lack of resources in many phases From the contest, the ingenuity of the troops has been supplied.

This is how climate change is making Valencia a match in the middle of a sea in flames

by

January has the days counted and the Valencian thermometers seem to be in the wrong month. In more than a century and a half of data, a temperature had never been recorded above 26.6 degrees In the city of Turia. Well, yesterday Aemet devices They reached 27.1. AND It is not an isolated fact: We can travel the entire community jumping from weather station to weather station and a surprising amount of them would be for 25 degrees. In Chelva, a couple of days ago, The 30 were touched. But is this weird? The truth is that. Normal, according to the historical series, is that temperatures They should range between 10 degrees during the nights and 16 during the day. Overcoming the 25 is nothing that can be classified as “normal.” But it cannot be said that it is just a meteorological curiosity, it is a much greater problem than only now we begin to understand. What is happening in that Mediterranean area? The seasonal forecasts of Aemet They already drew A warmer winter than normal. I should not miss anyone: 73% of the 2024 days had an average temperature higher than the historical average of reference (and, As they point from the agencythat “the average is already a warm period”). Cold peaks, on the other hand, are increasingly rare. It is almost unimaginable that the Valencian garden suffer a cold wave Like 1956 or January 1891. In the latter, Castellón spent days to -10 degrees and the people of Grau could see one “immense ice belt on the banks of the Mediterranean“ That, today, is science fiction. The world, little by little, has been heating. So it has to do with climate change? In general, attributing weather events to climate change is complicated. Because, deep down, we always talk about probabilities and, although probabilities are never zero, As Aemet explains“In a stable climate it is very likely that these warm days would not have produced.” That’s where climate change enters. And, “due to the form that this data is adjusted to a normal distribution, the increase of 1.5 ° C of the average temperature gives rise to the fact that values ​​before rare or impossible, Now they are probable“ What consequences does all this have? Halfway between the causes and the consequences are The very high temperatures that the sea has. Much higher temperatures than we could imagine just a decade ago and than They have experts intrigued. To all purposes, the Mediterranean is becoming a gigantic battery of energy that “Try the strength of atmospheric phenomena“. It is inevitable to think about THE GREAT DANA OF 2024but The impact Of these new scenarios it goes much further. Does this mean that complicated moments come? Means, above all, that socioclimatic balance in which we were installed it is changing very fast and we do not know for sure where it is directed. That complicates the forecast and hinders management, but emphasizes the need to be prepared. A task in which, as the Dana showed us, everything remains to be done.

Deepseek has had to pull pure ingenuity, breaking the “more = better” paradigm

by

Satya Nadella, the general director of Microsoft, It is very clear: “Deepseek’s new model is really impressive both for how they have effectively develop a model of artificial intelligence (AI) open source which performs calculations in time of inference as for its incredible computational efficiency. We must take the developments from China very, very seriously (…) As IA becomes more efficient and accessible we will see that its use triggers, becoming a merchandise from which we cannot do without. “ In this statement to FortuneNadella gives credit to the technological triumph that the Chinese company Deepseek has reached. And he honors him that he recognizes him without ambiguity, especially if we are in mind that Microsoft is one of the competitors of the AI ​​industry that has just a few hours ago witnessed how Its value in the bag has fallen in an abrupt way after the emergence of Deepseek R1. Anyway, we can be sure that to a large extent this AI model is the result of the pressure that US sanctions are exerting on Chinese companies. Jensen Huang, the founder and general director of Nvidia, He anticipated it in one of the statements he made at the end of May 2023 in Computex: “China is dedicating mass resources to the implementation of emerging companies specialized in the development of GPU. Do not underestimate them.” This warning was aimed at the US government in a clear attempt to prevent you about the consequences that They will have the sanctions that seek to stop the technological development of China. Huang talks about GPU Chinese designers, but his statement can be extrapolated to Chinese companies that develop AI models. After all, in this area, the GPUs and the great language models go hand in hand. USA will continue to lead in AI A good part of the sanctions approved by the administration led by Joe Biden as of October 7, 2022 seeks to slow down the development of the Chinese semiconductor industry, and also its AI technology. In fact, as we have just seen, the integrated circuits and the AI ​​go hand in hand. These prohibitions prevent NVIDIA, AMD or Intel, among other chips manufacturers for AI applications, sell their most advanced GPU to their Chinese clients. This is presumably the germ of Deepseek’s greatest achievement. According to Depseek the infrastructure used to train its AI model 2,048 NVIDIA H800 chips If we stick to the information that this Chinese company has made the infrastructure used to train Depseek R1 agglutina 2,048 chips H800 of Nvidia. And training with 671,000 million parameters has cost 5.6 million dollars. This is precisely what Satya Nadella speaks in the statements that we have reviewed a few lines above. These figures are extremely restrained. Some analysts defend that, in reality, its infrastructure brings together 50,000 GPU H100 Buy through intermediaries, but for the moment it is just a conjecture. If we give the statements made by the Deepseek spokesmen to good Financial Timesand for the moment it is reasonable to do so, the reason why their engineers have mounted their training infrastructure on NVIDIA H800 GPUs is that US sanctions have prevented them from accessing the H100 chips, which are more powerful. The prohibitions of November 16, 2023 They prevent Nvidia Delivering to their Chinese clients the H800 GPUs, but presumably at that time Depseek already had its infrastructure assembled. In any case, at this situation the meritorious is that with a relatively modest chip this Chinese company has materialized a remarkable achievement. Depseek’s undisputed success is a victory for China, but it is a partial victory. This technological war at the moment is winning the US. Its advantage lies in an unappealable reality: the country led by Donald Trump controls so much Most GPU manufacturers Like many of the companies that are dedicated to developing AI models. And the latter have access without restrictions on the most advanced GPUs produced by NVIDIA and other companies. China has the Huawei GPU, which They seem to be very competitive In inference processes, and also with those of companies such as Moore Threads, Metax, Biren Technology, Innosilicon, Zhaoxin, Iluvatar Corex, Denglinai or Vast Ai Tech, among others. But, for the moment, it is in a position of clear disadvantage. Even so, this confrontation goes for long, so any conclusion that we reach about which country will finally impose itself in the AI ​​domain, if any, it would be premature.

news and how to download the latest stable version

by

Let’s tell you what are the News of Android Auto 13.6now that Google has released the final version of its operating system. Remember that this is a system that is integrated into your Android mobile, and that when you connect to the car you can use it on your screen. This new version has arrived by surprise without having launched a beta first, and brings An interesting change for Google Maps. This is also a new thing considering that this operating system does not usually include great novelties among its new versions. News of Android Auto 13.6 The main novelty of this new version of Android Auto is on Google Maps, whose interface It adjusts to a lesser extent to the available space On the console screen. This makes the data it shows more visible, and that everything is read better. However, it also brings as the main problem that The interface hides a large part of the information maps cartographic. Come on, that everything appears a little bigger, but on console screens that are small the elements and menus of the interface can end up covering almost everything. Another news in the Google Maps interface is that The tracking arrow is adjusted to the screen center. This will make the car’s position more visible, although the visibility of what is in front of the road is reduced. Come on, this change is not good. It is rare that these novelties have reached the final version directly, and It seems that they are very little polished Being able to be quite annoying, although they will improve in the upcoming versions. Beyond this, stability, fluidity and car compatibility with other cars are also improved. Beyond that there are no more news, because The news of Android Auto van inside. Being an operating system for the car, Any error in the app can be fataland that’s why Android Auto updates They implement new things very little by little, because each failure can cost lives.

2025 will be full of unforgettable readings. Right now, this is what is in Xataka’s slope battery

by

Let us recognize it: we love Christmas because if we like reading, dozens of books rain. The drama arrives in January, when the battery acquires proportions of skyscrapers. In Xataka we have already got to work and we are engaged in multiple readings. Perhaps some of them are interested in increasing your own list of outstanding volumes. This is what we are reading! ‘Cointeligency: Live and work with AI’, by Ethan Mollick I am still reading Mollick’s book and it is one of those rare readings about ia that manage to keep their feet on the ground. The one of the books of AI is a section full of tectoutopic manifestos or apocalyptic warnings, but this text, at least in what I have read, stands out for its genuine curiosity and healthy skepticism. Who reads it will find a pragmatic analysis of how to integrate these tools into our life, without falling into the trap of imagining that they can or should do everything, and of course without falling into cheap catastrophism. Mollick understands that the real question is not whether we will use the AI, but how we will choose to use it. Javier Lacort Cointeligencia: Living and working with AI (connects) * Some price may have changed from the last review ‘Everything dies’ by Juan Gómez Jurado I am reading with some laziness the eighth book of the Red Reina saga, more for a “since I have read the previous ones, to know how this ends”, although I am seeing myself coming than last delivery, nothing. The familiarity of knowing both the characters, the humor of the dialogues and the narratives, and the tone of action so characteristic of Gómez Jurado are liking, but I cannot avoid that feeling of reading again the same and with the same resources that work from the first books. Fear gives me the end. At least, for now he is being entertaining and agile. César Muela Everything dies (everything burns 3) (Red Reina Universe) * Some price may have changed from the last review ‘The newspapers of La Boticaria’, by Natsu Hyûga I had been listening to this series for a long time, and how good it is, but since I did not usually trust the Hype I took late to read the manga. It was a serious mistake. ‘The newspapers of the apothecary’ tells the story of Mao Mao, a herbalist who was kidnapped to work as a maid in the imperial palace. I must admit that at the beginning, it is hard to believe that she is the protagonist of the series. It appears to be a dry girl whose purpose is to avoid getting into trouble in life. The only thing that seems to care is his father, a doctor named Luomen, and the only thing that excites him is the poisons. Although Mao Mao promised to maintain a low profile in the palace, he cannot avoid taking action on the matter when the children of the emperor mysteriously begin to get sick. His actions put him in the spotlight of Jinshi, a beautiful eunuch that is responsible for managing all the affairs The Interior Palace. As opposite as water and oil, together they are dedicated to investigating the mysterious cases that are crossed along the way. You will not be able to avoid laughing when you see this pair, as well as its numerous misunderstandings, in action. In addition, the manga is impressive and reflects the talent of the artist, Nekokurage. ‘The newspapers of the apothecary’ is available in numerous formats. Apart from having its own anime in Crunchyroll, it is also available in Japanese light novel format, which is where it was born. After seeing the anime, I have read the manga and read the light novels because, as you can see, my head went a bit. However, I can only say that it is a will to how good this series is and how it leaves you asking for more. Jody Serrano The newspapers of the apothecary no. 01 * Some price may have changed from the last review ‘Travel with Herodoto’, by Rysard Kapuściński I have always liked to read. From childhood. But it took me much more to launch me for readings that can carry the label of “journalistic”, if we understand from chronicles to essays written by and for reporters. The first, I remember it well, was a book of Manu Leguineche about the vericuetos of this profession. I devoured it when I was in the second year of Baccalaureate, while I was enrolled in Communication Sciences. The second, if the memory does not falter me, was ‘the cynics do not work for this trade’, the classic classic of Rysard Kapuściński for aspiring stories. From those years of university I recognize that I had abandoned the Polish, the cheerful face, with a sharp look and populated eyebrows, that the students of my fifth contemplate with devotion when I went up to collect the Prince of Asturias. In the Faculty I also read ‘ebony’ and ‘One more day with life’, but I had one of his great works pending, which, if I am not wrong, puts the brooch to his bibliographic legacy and in a way it serves as a vital testament , professional and deontological: ‘Travel with Herodoto’. 2025 has started fulfilling that pending account. It has been my first reading. And how I appreciate it. ‘Travel with Herodoto’ is chronic, biography, communication treaty, sociological essay and a declaration of love towards reading and history, a philosophical manifesto and the daddy test that mixing the local and global approach is not only possible, it is also necessary. It is all that and something else: the frank and uncomplexed work of an extraordinary reporter who does not tremble the narrative when moving from his own childhood memories to the political column or the fragments of a chronicler who lived more than twenty centuries before him . ‘Travel with Herodotus’ is also something else: … Read more

Deepseek’s silent revolution

by

The launch of the model Deepseek-R1 It has marked an inflection point in the AI ​​industry, demonstrating that it is possible to develop high -performance language models at a fraction of the cost of current leaders … and in an open source. Why is it important. This development questions the business model of large technological ones, which have invested tens of billions of dollars in proprietary infrastructure. They have done it under the premise that LLMS They are in themselves a sustainable competitive advantage. Deepseek (and not only her, although yesterday all the holders will take Calls) has burst that premise. The alarm signal. Marc Benioff, CEO of Salesforce, He said it clear: “The models and interface have become commodities. True value lies in data and metadata.” This vision suggests that the future of AI is not in the models itself, but in its practical application and in the data that feed them. This process reminds a lot of what happened with the search engines at the beginning of the century. Which was once considered high -value -owned technology – the search algorithm – became Commodity with the arrival of open source solutions such as Lucene / elasticsearch. The true value was not in the search engine per sebut in what Google built on him: contextual advertising, user data, integrated services, user experience. Today any company can implement the search, but only those that have managed to build a valuable ecosystem around them have prospered. Deepen. Deepseek’s efficiency is no accident. Forced by the restrictions of access to advanced chips, the researchers had to innovate in the model’s own architecture, with techniques such as latent care Multihead (MLA), which allow to obtain better results with less resources. Deepseek marks the beginning of a new phase of the AI ​​in which language models are a basic utility on which to build added value applications. The big question. Where will the value in a world where the LLMS are Commodities? Everything indicates that differentiation will be in the ability to apply these models to specific problems. And in the quality of the owner data, in addition to the user experience. The earthquake that Depseek has unleashed is the beginning of an era in which the competitive advantage will not reside in having the most powerful model, but in knowing how to apply it in the most effective way to solve real problems.

The Tesla Model and should be the change of paradigm in Europe. It has been destroyed as a best selling car by Dacia Sandero

by

Europe should walk to the electric car market. The entrance of the new emission limits regulations will force Increase market share of the electric car or, in the worst case for manufacturers, to disburse large fines. In the market, in fact, electric cars begin to accumulate Below 30,000 euros or with autonomy that, for less than 40,000 euros, allows you to get rid of the plug and not open your head planning a trip to the millimeter. A first step of how the European Automobile Market could change us in 2023. Then, the best -selling car on the continent was the Tesla Model and. Elon Musk’s Super SUV was even The best selling car in the world. Of course, contemplating all kinds of technologies. It was expected, therefore, that Europe continued to advance towards the electric car and that Tesla Model and strengthened its leadership. But nothing is further from reality. Elon Musk’s car has been widely overcome by an opponent who is antithesis: gasoline and without electrifying. It is Dacia Sandero. The new king of Europe Dacia Sandero was the best selling car last year in Europe, with 270,111 units according to Dataforce. The data differ slightly from those presented by Dacia that presumes to place 309,392 units In the European market in 2024. For the words of the Romanian company, we can assume that in these last sales the business market is also contemplated. And is that the Dacia Sandero Not only has it been placed as the best -selling car in Europe between individuals. His leadership is absolute and has devastated. Dacia confirms that it is the best selling car in each and every one of its sales channels. Among individuals, Dacia Sandero has taken almost 60,000 units To Tesla Model and, who in 2023 managed to get first position in the table. The electric car has added 210,484 units, which represents a 17.4% drop in this channel. This has barely left him as the fourth best -selling car in Europe. The Renault Clio (second best -selling car in Europe) and the Volkswagen Golf (third) have exceeded 6,000 units the figure achieved by Tesla Model Y. Although it can be seen as a European failure of the electric car, the truth is that already in 2023 The only electric car that really presented battle was the Tesla Model Y. No other car among the ten best -selling models was exclusively electric. It cannot be overlooked that the electric car in Europe punctured in 2024. 1,447,934 electric cars were sold, by the 1,538,106 cars of this type sold in 2023. It is a drop of 5.9%. This, in addition, caused a drop in the market share of the electric car 14.6% to 13.6% last year, According to ACEA data. But, without a doubt, the greatest responsible for this fall was Germany. No aid to the electric car, This technology collapsed 27.4% in the market that most buys electric cars from Europe. The fall was overwhelming And without the French relay (-2.7%), the entire market was conditioned in a year where Germany placed almost 144,000 electric cars less than the previous year. That is, the total market for the electric car in Europe moved in about 90,000 units less than the previous year.
