Peru has a lot at stake in protecting a key bee for the Amazon. So you have begun to recognize legal rights

In Peru the judicial chronicles of 2026 start with an unexpected protagonist, one that usually has little to do with courts and lawsuits: bees. To be more precise, insects gender Meliponafamous above all for lacking a stinger and their important pollinating function. Precisely because of this relevance and to protect them from possible threats, the authorities of Satipo, in Junín (Peru), have recognized to the bees legal rights, which among other issues will allow them to be represented before the law. The decision is more important than it seems. Of laws and bees. that the bees play a key role in environmental balance is nothing new. For years (decades) researchers have been analyzing their role as pollinatorsits usefulness as pollution indicators and his slow decline. However, studies on the species tend to remain in the papers scientists and only occasionally sneak into the political debate. Hence decisions like the one adopted by the Provincial Municipality of Satipo, in Peru, are so relevant. There the authorities have decided neither more nor less than to publish an official ordinance which recognizes the legal rights of stingless bees that inhabit the biosphere reserve Avirei-Vraem. More than words. The decision is important for several reasons. The first, for the clear and resounding message it sends to society. The second transcends the symbolic sphere and part of the content of the ordinance itself. In it, the Provincial Municipality of Satipo not only recognizes stingless bees and their habitat as legal subjects. The text goes further and details the regulatory shield that protects insects, emphasizing their right to live in “healthy, balanced and adequate” habitats. The ordinance even grants them the “right to representation” in case their interests are harmed. Does it say anything else? Yes. The document, signed on October 27 and which can be consulted On the Peruvian Government website, it highlights “the fundamental role” that bees have at an environmental level and the importance of recognizing their “intrinsic rights”, which affects, for example, the use of pesticides. Hence, the Peruvian authorities also want to “promote awareness” about the species. “Nature is a whole (…). The rights recognized in this declaration are not only intended to guarantee the health of stingless bees, but also of the Amazon as a whole,” ditch. Beyond Satipo. There is who considers that, with its decision, Satipo has turned stingless bees into the first insects in the world with explicitly recognized rights. Whether or not this is the case, the undeniable thing is that its October ordinance seems to have paved the way for other similar ones. The diary The Spectator relieved Recently, the provincial municipality of Loreto-Nauta has taken a similar step and has become the second region to opt for the judicial protection of Amazonian bees. Beyond the measure itself, both localities have managed to put the focus on the risks that faces a species on which not only the environmental balance depends, but also the future of crops with a considerable impact economical, like cocoa or coffee. Is the situation so serious? In September the Peruvian Amazon Research Institute (IIAP) echoed from a study that warns that more than 50% of bee habitats Melipona eburnea and Tetragonisca angustula They are located in “high risk of deforestation areas” in the Amazon. Among the causes of this vulnerability, he cited the felling of trees in which the species nests, the illegal extraction of wood and the expansion of agriculture. It is not a minor issue if we take into account that, as remembers the Municipal Council of Satipo90% of the region’s wild plant and flower species depend directly on pollination driven by bees.

“During the process with Amazon we did not bring innovation to the market for 18 months”

There’s something liberating about talking to someone who doesn’t have to defend decisions they didn’t make. Gary Cohen He came to iRobot in 2024 to be its CEO when the founder, Colin Angle, He jumped ship after the collapse of the deal with Amazon. Now, more than a year later, from an office in Bedford where he has just renewed his lease – a gesture of permanence in the midst of chaos – he has spoken to Xataka with the frankness of who has had to choose between dignified death and pragmatic survival. “My goal is to make Colin proud,” he says of the departed founder. “He calls it ‘his baby.’ I want to make him feel like we were able to turn this company around.” It’s a curious statement coming from who just sold that baby to Picea Roboticsthe Chinese manufacturer that will now own the company that invented the home robot vacuum cleaner. Dead in the closet At one point in the conversation, Cohen drops an image that sticks: “I have hundreds of dead lawnmower robots in this building.” It refers to Terra project, iRobot’s failed attempt to expand beyond vacuum cleaners. These technological corpses are the perfect metaphor for a company that was ahead of the market… but did not know how to convert that advantage into products that arrived on time. Original sin was go all in on elegant but impractical technology. Colin Angle, a brilliant roboticist at MIT, insisted on camera-based navigation as Chinese competitors adopted LiDAR. Exactly the same as Tesla’s approach to Chinese cars, by the way. “Consumers want to map their homes in twenty minutes, not two hours,” Cohen explains with the wisdom of someone who comes from selling razors at Gillette, not robots. Two hundred software engineers worked at Machine Learning to make that vision work. Meanwhile, companies like Ecovacs or Roborock were overtaking them from the right with cheaper products and, to iRobot’s pain, technologically superior according to many customers. “During the period with Amazon, the management team took its foot off the gas and we didn’t bring innovation to market for about 18 months.” This confession about the 18 months of paralysis while they waited the approval of the sale to Amazon for 1.7 billion It’s devastating. The company was frozen, unable to react as the market moved at Chinese speed. It was not until the last year, already working with Picea, when iRobot incorporated LiDAR into its range. When European regulators ended up blocking the operation to “protect competition,” anddestiny was sealed. The irony hurts: those European regulators prevented an American company from buying another American company, and the result is that it has ended up being absorbed by a Chinese company that played its cards well. When I point out this paradox, Cohen responds cautiously and diplomatically: “This was not a hostile takeover. We went to them.” The creditor’s embrace The relationship with Picea began like many dependency relationships: out of necessity. iRobot I owed them 161 million in manufacturing costs when Cohen took over. They needed to completely reinvent themselves, and they needed to do it quickly. In less than a year they launched eight new models“finally giving the people what they wanted, including LiDAR navigation and scrubbing combo products.” But the final blow came from the tariffs. 46% on imports from Vietnamwhere they manufacture for the US market. $23 million extra in costs in 2025 alone. “Some potential buyers looked at our business and said ‘we don’t want to take risks until the tariff situation is resolved.’” The candidates evaporated one by one. When the last potential buyer couldn’t close the deal, Cohen made the pragmatic decision. “We told Picea: you have a great partnership with us, why don’t you buy from us?” And in one month they closed the deal that turns the supplier, creditor and competitor, all in onein owner. The promise of continuity “Is business as usual. iRobot is here to stay. “We don’t expect any disruption.” Cohen insists Roombas will continue to work, apps will maintain their service and support will continue. For the millions of users (in Spain, where “Roomba” has become as synonymous with a robot vacuum cleaner as “Kleenex” is with a handkerchief) this is the only thing that matters. The offices will remain: Bedford, Tokyo, Madrid, London. Or so the CEO claims. The MIT engineers who form the ‘iRobot Labs’ will continue working. “We have intellectual property that we contribute. They have patents. Together we will be able to differentiate products much more.” The official narrative is optimistic because think about the perfect marriage between American innovation and Chinese efficiency. But when I ask how much of the new product line was actually developed by iRobot, the answer says a lot without saying, “It’s been a partnership.” The most innovative features, such as the compactor container wave retractable scrub roller coverwere developed by Picea. The value of being late “You have to treat every day as if you were second or third, not as if you were first.” It is the advice that Cohen would give to technology entrepreneurs, born from his experience at Gillette when they had 60% of the market but acted as challengers. At some point, iRobot forgot that lesson between its IPO in 2005 and its forced sale for a fraction of its peak value. “My goal,” Cohen says near the end, “is to make customers like your mother happy.” You are referring to my comment about how difficult it was for my mother to set up her Roomba. It’s a modest promise for a company that dreamed of revolutionizing domestic robotics, but maybe realism is exactly what they need now. There is something moving about Cohen defending a company he didn’t build, trying to save half a thousand jobs, promising to honor the legacy of a founder who is no longer here. “Colin was a visionary,” he says, then honestly adds that they couldn’t execute that vision. The future has a … Read more

Amazon is preparing an investment of 10 billion in OpenAI because if you can’t beat your enemy, the best thing is to join him

Leonidas, had six-pack or not, he died at Thermopylae, but what is curious for our history is exactly what happened afterwards. Xerxes’ Persians had devastated Attica, and faced with the threat that all of Greece would fall, the Spartans—who deeply distrusted the Athenians—agreed to join forces with them. War makes strange allies, they say, and this story is not even close to explaining what is happening with AI. Everyone is joining forces. Then I’ll tell you how it ended with the Spartans and the Athenians. what has happened. OpenAI is negotiating an alliance with Amazon according to which the latter would invest around $10 billion in OpenAI. In The Information They were the first to reveal that negotiation, now confirmed by sources close to the conversations that have been cited on CNBC. What do each other gain?. Thanks to this agreement, Amazon will sell OpenAI its Tranium chips and will also rent more computing capacity in its data centers so that OpenAI can further expand the execution of its AI models and services such as ChatGPT. What OpenAI gains is, once again, economic resources to continue growing. Or what is the same: money to burn on that bonfire that AI has become. A strange agreement. The alliance is surprising, especially considering that Amazon had already put its eggs in another basket. Specifically, Anthropic, OpenAI’s absolute rival in the AI ​​race. It is estimated that Amazon has invested a total of 8 billion dollars at Anthropic, but now there is another reality: that everyone invests in everyone. Anthropic, the best example. The truth is that in recent months we have seen more and more circular financing agreements. Microsoft, which had invested 13 billion dollars, announced last month that would invest $5 billion in Anthropic, and NVIDIA also signed up, doubling that amount: it will invest $10 billion in it. And already, Even Google has teamed up with Anthropic. Long live circular financing. But of course the main protagonist of these agreements is OpenAI, which has been receiving blank checks (or almost) from giants like NVIDIA —100,000 million-, with Broadcom or with amd. We are facing a gigantic house of cards which is in danger of collapsing. But while it doesn’t, players continue adding floors. Or what is the same, money. Win-Win? The agreement is certainly interesting for Amazon, which has been working on its own AI chips since 2015. Trainium are the latest expression of that effort, and the fact that OpenAI is going to use them to train its models—along with those of its competitors, for the record—is good support for that development. In fact, there was perhaps more interesting support recently for those chips: Apple’s. And of course, AWS. In reality, this agreement is a continuation of that (temporary?) love affair between Amazon and OpenAI. The latter, once its ties with Microsoft were released, began to look for new girlfriends in the field of infrastructure, and a little over a month ago announced an agreement with Amazon Web Services worth 38 billion dollars. This is about preservation. All these agreements between big technology companies are not about money, because these circular investments are nothing more than exchanges of kind that compensate each other. What they are about is being stronger and protecting themselves. And if they fall, yes, they will all fall together. Let’s go back to Greece. The alliance between Sparta and Greece crystallized in the naval battle of Salamis (also in 480 BC, shortly after Thermopylae), one of the most important in human history. Sparta reluctantly ceded naval command to Athens, but the strategy worked. That union of forces achieved a decisive victory that saved Greece from being conquered by Persia. Alliances that end as they end. After that battle and that of Plataea a year later, the alliance began to deteriorate and ended up breaking up. Athens and Sparta were enemies again. In fact, 50 years later (430 BC) both would face each other for more than a quarter of a century in the Peloponnesian War. It was totally logical, as it will be that all these alliances end as they should: with each company going about its own thing.

includes up to a 50 euro Amazon card

Protecting our equipment (whether mobile phones, tablets or computers, among others) is important. We have a wide selection of tools for this, such as an antivirusas well as others designed for our Internet traffic, such as VPNs. The relevance of betting on these applications in our personal sphere is great, but it is much more so if we have a company. The reason for this is simple: not only our information comes into play, but also that of employees and customers. If we are looking for a complete and secure enterprise-level solution, then the Kaspersky Small Office Security package (or KSOS) may fit us very well. Much more now, which is on promotion: if we use the code ‘AFBIZ’, we can get a whole year for just 143.33 euros. A beautiful piece that also includes a couple of very interesting gifts. Kaspersky Small Office Security – 1 year The price could vary. We earn commission from these links A very secure business solution that is super easy to install This is a great opportunity to get KSOS if we take the discount into account. Outside of the promotion, the price of this service for five different devices for an entire year is priced at 227.50 euros, so we would be saving almost 85 euros. Not only that, but we will also take, totally free, a 50 euro Amazon gift card and a global eSIM with 1 GB of Internet, ideal if we are going to travel outside of Spain. Now, let’s talk about what Kaspersky’s Small Office Security offers. As you can imagine, KSOS comes with a complete antivirus that we can use on any device in our company, regardless of whether it is a computer, a mobile phone or even a file server. Besides, It is compatible with both Windows and MacOSwhich gives it a lot of versatility. To the antivirus we must add software that is to avoid all types of malware and ransomware, as well as a password manager that will allow us to give extra security to an element as important as these. Additionally, KSOS also includes a VPN that stands out for being fast and very secureso we can protect both Internet transactions and our IP and our traffic. All in a package that is very easy to install, so it will not be necessary to request help from a technician. In short, a quite interesting and complete pack that stands out especially now that we can get it at a lower price (and with two very good gifts). Finally, we cannot forget that KSOS includes a 30 day trial period in which we can test the service as much as we want and, if it does not convince us, request a refund.

Amazon and Google are already armed

Let’s go back in time for a moment. By mid-2023, ChatGPT He had been between us for half a year and artificial intelligence was experiencing a huge boom. For some it was a fad; For others, one of the most relevant technological disruptions of recent times. OpenAI had the lead. From being practically unknown, she went on to dominate headlines. He achieved this by putting a product as fascinating as it was imperfect in the hands of the public, the type of launch that Big Tech would hardly have materialized. In its early months, ChatGPT had few guardrails and made mistakes quite frequently. Such a setback would have meant a reputational blow Huge for any tech giant, but a startup could possibly take that risk. NVIDIA, the winner in the AI ​​race, faces a challenge The basis for competing head-to-head with ChatGPT was—and continues to be—developing increasingly advanced language models. After launching GPT-3.5the model that gave rise to ChatGPT, OpenAI moved quickly to introduce GPT-4 in March 2023. From that moment on, the old and new players in the sector had no alternative but to enter the game, unless they wanted to stay out of what was already aiming to be the next technological revolution. And whatever the name of the company, they all depended on one key player: NVIDIA. The reason? Jensen Huang’s firm had the best AI-specialized GPUs on the market, with the H100 as standard bearer. And we talk about GPUs because they are much more suitable than CPUs for the parallel processing tasks that modern AI requires. The approach was simple: if you wanted to compete in generative AI—and hopefully aspire to lead it—you needed to buy NVIDIA GPUs, upgrade your data centers or open new ones. And all this against the clock. The result was massive demand that sometimes led to shortages. An illustrative example: at the beginning of 2024, Meta announced that Its renewed infrastructure for generative AI would reach 350,000 NVIDIA H100 GPUs by the end of the year, with a power equivalent to about 600,000 H100. By June 2024, NVIDIA was already the most valuable listed company on the planet. It is often said that the difficult thing is not to get to the top—that too—but to stay there. That’s exactly the challenge NVIDIA faces now. Their products remain at the top and its strategy covers much more than hardware: it includes a stack of software designed to make the most of the architecture CUDA. But the competition is knocking on the door loudly, the same as with OpenAI. The leadership of these years is pressured by increasingly fierce and global competition. Amazon and Google’s bet on AI chips The most recent move comes from Amazon, which has just introduced Trainium3 UltraServer, a system powered by its AI chip Trainium3 manufactured in 3 nanometers. According to the companythese chips and systems are 40% more energy efficient than the previous generation. And it doesn’t end there. Amazon also showed its roadmap for Trainium4, already in development. It promised support for NVLink Fusion, NVIDIA’s high-speed chip interconnect technology, opening the door to interoperable systems. Trn2 Ultra Cluster Google, which has been developing its TPU chips for AI for a decade, is starting to bet on its own hardware to boost Gemini. Even rumors circulate that talk about a multimillion-dollar investment by Meta to buy AI chips from Google, a move that enters squarely into AI territory. We would also be facing a quite notable change of course in the search engine company, which until now had limited the use of its chips to its own data centers. Ironwood by Google Do you remember that Meta is one of NVIDIA’s big clients? Well, it is also developing—and testing—its own AI chips, such as the MTIA. Even OpenAI has decided to partner with Broadcom to design their own hardware for their data centers. In China, the scenario does not favor NVIDIA either. The trade war with the United States has narrowed its room for maneuver in the country, while local actors such as Huawei they push their own chipswith the Ascend 910D already in production and Ascend 920 new generation. Ultimately, we are seeing many of the players who turned to NVIDIA in the early stages of the AI ​​race beginning to follow their own path. The reasons are multiple, but one stands out above all: the need for independence in a technological competition that only intensifies.

Black Friday 2025 | Best offers and discounts on Amazon, MediaMarkt, El Corte Inglés, Pc Componentes

The association of the term with sales began in Philadelphia during the 1960s, and at first it was not positive. Local police began calling the day after Thanksgiving “Black Friday” because they had to deal with bad traffic and other miseries connected with the Crowds of shoppers heading to the stores that day. The term was not popular and local retailers tried to change it to Big Friday. But the idea failed to catch on, although over time the Minorites of Philadelphia and other cities gave it another connotation: their accounts went from being in red to being in black from that day on. Today, more than Black Friday we should call it Black Weekend, Week of the Black Friday or even Black November, since Black Friday offers usually run from Friday to Sunday in most stores, but there are also many that have pre-Black Friday offers all month, both online stores as well as in physical stores on the streets of your city. Be that as it may, this campaign opens the shopping season for christmas gifts since the promotions and discounts offered are always an opportunity to find something to give as a gift. Black Friday in Spain As Black Friday grew in the United States, with the arrival of the Internet, many users began to pay attention to these sales to try to buy online. Spanish businesses realized this and, as happens with many other sales periods that are imported, they began to adopt it to take economic advantage of it. Black Friday did not arrive in Spain until 2012. Until that year, sales periods were regulated by law, meaning that stores were prohibited from offering sales outside of the stipulated periods. It was therefore when this rule disappeared in the summer of 2012 when Black Friday arrived for the first time in Spain that same month of November. Confirmed Online Stores Amazon is one of the online stores that is most famous for its Black Friday offers, although other electronic stores such as PC Componentes, El Corte Inglés or Fnac are not far behind. But come on, as we have told you, practically any online store that comes to mind will have something to offer you at least on Friday.

Amazon is beginning to be the gateway for your used cars in the US

Imagine buying a car on Amazon It still sounds strange: choosing model, color, configuration and even financing from the same page where you buy books or a mobile charger. In Spain it is not possible to do so and there was only a specific experiment years agowhen Opel offered a limited series of the Grandland That attempt was not continued and today the platform is focused on accessories and maintenance products for the car. However, in the United States the idea is beginning to take shape. In the North American country, Amazon has shaped its own space for the automotive industry with Amazon Carsa section that brings together inventory from multiple dealerships and brands. The current screenshot shows a wide catalog in which vehicles from different manufacturers coexist, offered by different dealers and specialized sellers. This structure fits with Amazon’s strategy to reinforce its presence in the sector, a line that it already opened with the agreement signed with Hyundai in 2023 to facilitate the online purchase of new cars. A window to understand where the automotive industry is moving The way the agreement works is simple: Amazon becomes the point where the search begins and the dealer remains the place where the operation ends. The user can review inventory, compare certifications and move forward with financing. And if the question arises as to what happens next, nothing essentially changes. The signing of the contract, delivery and subsequent service remain in the hands of the dealer. Amazon only orders the previous steps and allows you to solve them from home, with the intention of making the process easier for the buyer. Here the buyer gains access to a broader showcase than is usually available to them. Instead of limiting yourself to the usual dealership, you have access to a much broader offer without having to travel. This promises to make the search a more agile process, with more organized information and the possibility of advancing procedures that previously required in-person visits. Amazon acts as that point where everything is organized before closing the operation. But there is another component: the support of Ford certifications. Each car, they say, has gone through a defined inspection and has specific guarantees and roadside assistance, which introduces a higher level of security. compared to a conventional used. The financing is part of the same flow and is linked to selected entities such as Ford Credit. For the buyer, the sum is simple: more inventory, less friction in the procedures and a framework of guarantees that reduces common doubts in the used market. What happens at Amazon Autos cannot be separated from the internal transformation that Ford is experiencing. In its latest strategic moves, Ford starts from the idea thatengines no longer define carsa position that marks its attempt to compete with Chinese manufacturers that are advancing rapidly in price and technology. Added to this challenge is the lack of qualified mechanics, which has forced Ford to propose salaries of up to $120,000 in a context in which Western industry has a deficit of specialized labor. With this panorama, opening a digital channel that organizes acquisition and expands presence where buyers already are seems a coherent decision. From Spain, where Amazon has not sold cars since that specific attempt by Opel, it is striking to see how in other markets the process is advancing rapidly. Ford’s initiative does not guarantee that this model will arrive in Europe in the same way, but it does reflect a progressive change: manufacturers They seek to be where the buyers are and simplify the less visible part of the purchase. Over time, these types of experiences can influence how we understand the role of the dealer and how we begin searching for our next car.
