Those who know how to ask 100 questions to Chatgpt and those that are formed with an answer

by

When Nityesh Agarwal, an engineer from Everyspent two weekends learning about special relativity with ChatgptHe did not just ask him a question. Not ten. Were More than one hundred The questions he asked until Einstein ceased to be a name in his books to become ideas that could explain to anyone in five minutes. A software engineer, without physics training, achieved what it used to require much more regulated training time: Understand why time slows near the speed of light. The difference was not even caused by the chosen model. In fact, He used more GPT-4o than the brand new O3 because he felt that he better understood his doubts. The difference was in your method: Ask until exhaustion. Ask for metaphors. Draw diagrams when it was stuck. Share each epiphany to confirm that you had understood. He used the AI, in short, such as what can really be: A tutor with infinite patience that never tires of reformulating the idea from different angles until the student understands. And there is a little commented problem: Most people use chatgpt and company like a vitaminate googlelittle else. One question, an answer, next topic. An advanced calculator, a refined translator. How to have Internet access and just use it to watch viral videos. Ahem. Nityesh discovered that the bottleneck of personalized learning is not so much the intelligence of the machine and the patience and insistence of the student. AI can teach anything to anyone. But it requires that we be as obsessive as Nityesh during those two weekends. And so he is born A new self -taught class: People who understand that after the Internet, AI is its second great revolution. If the Internet democratized access to knowledge, LLMS They democratize access to personalized teaching. Some people make them more vague. Others make them unstoppable. The advantage is no longer to have access to information, but in the ability to ask the right questions and have the patience to continue asking until everything fit. Nityesh has demonstrated it In comic strips.

If the question is how far Russia’s help comes to North Korea, the answer has a war name in Ukraine: Shahed

by

At the beginning of June more than what is behind that convergence between Moscow and Pyongyang was known. It was known by The protagonists themselves that North Korea had been sending armament for months and soldiers to Russia in his invasion to Ukraine. In return, Russia was giving him what Kim longed for: A functional army. Therefore, the question in the air seemed clear: how much “? The answer has name and origin … in Iran. The Moscow-pyongyang axis. Revealed it in an extensive interview The War Zone Medium General Kyrylo Budanov, head of Ukrainian military intelligence. Apparently, Russia has begun to transfer critical technology to North Korea for the Drones production Long -range Kamikazes and high -precision ballistic missiles, transforming Pyongyang into a key node of Russian war machinery and altering military balance in Asia. Shahed. Among the ceded systems, the ability to manufacture the Shahed-136 drones (known in Russia as Geran), originally from Iranian design and responsible for much of the massive air attacks About Ukraine. Russia already manufactures about 2,000 drones Shahed a month and plan to raise that figure 5,000so the outsourcing towards North Korea responds to a need to maintain the offensive rhythm without saturating its own industry. Providing Pyongyang with this capacity also means giving the possibility of saturate the defenses South Korean antialeas or even re -export drones to Russia for use in Ukraine, feeding a cycle of arms collaboration that consolidates a new authoritarian axis in the global war setting. A Shahed 136 Iranian drone The KN-23 under Russian tutelage. The benefits for North Korea do not end in drones. Budanov details How Moscow has significantly improved North Korean ballistic capacity, especially the KN-23 missile (also known as Hwasong-11), that in its first lots sent to Russia It was useless for its low precision and structural failures. However, thanks to direct technical cooperation with Russian specialists, the missiles have been redesigned until reaching a level of lethal precision, with implications that greatly exceed the Ukrainian conflict. The technological transfer also extends to the system of Air-Aire missiles long range and, possibly more worrying, to submarine systems capable of launching nuclear ballistic missiles. KN-23 The nuclear unknown. Although Budanov does not reveal exact details in the interview, Yes, it makes clear that the development of the naval component of the North Korean nuclear deterrence It is being directly supported by Moscow, which clearly amplifies the destructive potential of Pyongyang and, what is doubtful, alters the strategic balance in the Asian northeast. Korean ammunition. Support is not just technician and we have gone counting. North Korea has provided Russia with an artillery arsenal that includes since Obuses D-74 122 mm to self -propelled cannons 170 mm Koksan and multiple launcher 240 mm mlrs. The latter, According to Budanovthey have proven precise and troops in the field Battle, which explains that Russia has already received 120 units and it is expected that the shipments continue. And much more. In addition, Korea has sent about 11,000 soldiers To the Russian Oblast of Kursk, evidencing that his commitment to Moscow goes far beyond logistics. He also recalled the agreement reached by the Secretary of the Russian Security Council, Serguéi Shoigú, during his visit to Pyongyang, whereby the Entrance of “Labor migrants” North Koreans to replace the exit of Central Asian workers, considered vulnerable to Western infiltration. Budanov warns That many of these “workers” could end up signing military contracts, becoming de facto in Russian soldiers of North Korean nationality, thus expanding the North Korean presence in the front without officially declaring it. Military survival. If you want also, strengthening North Russia – Corea It responds not only to immediate operational needs, but to long -term strategic interests. Moscow obtains armament, soldiers and time. On the other sidewalk, Pyongyang receives technology, implicit diplomatic support and A unique opportunity to position themselves as military power beyond the Korean peninsula. Collaboration is based on a logic of mutual survival: While Russia seeks Nuclear weapons Operational and advanced drones, raising their threat capacity, for example, South Korea and other actors in the region. Challenge to global balance. The alliance, therefore, is not just a regional problem as we indicate A few weeks ago: marks a change in the dynamics of global power, where authoritarian actors share sensitive military technology to avoid sanctions, accelerate their ambitions and challenge established balances. The battlefield in Ukraine, in this context, becomes, again, the laboratory of a new war architecture that now It transcends its borders.

I have tried the Nintendo Switch 2 and I already have an answer to the question “Is it worth buying it if I have the original switch”?

by

Not every day a new generation of consoles is launched. Nintendo’s are complex to frame for a few years, but within their segment, Nintendo Switch 2 It is a new generation with all the letters. I’ve been a few days Testing the thorough switch For analysis and, between All questions that can be askedmany acquaintances have made me “Is it better to buy Nintendo Switch 2 now or wait?” Answering something like that has a lot of nuances because there is no perfect console for everyone and it depends a lot on the case, what you like to play or what other platforms you have at home. But a question for which I have a much clearer answer is another classic: “If I have a Nintendo SwitchIs it worth changing to Switch 2? “ Before trying the console, I thought it would only be worth it if the jump were going to give it from the original 2017 model, but These days with her have made me change my mind. This is going to be a more reflective text, as if I explained my ideas out loud, and I would love to read you in comments because an interesting debate can come out. A generational jump. Throughout I am a Nintendo Switch user from the launch of the machine. I bought it with ‘The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild‘(Also Switch 2 start game) and, although the machine we are testing these days corresponds to a transfer of Nintendo, I reserved mine and is already in a house. During these eight years, I have played hundreds of hours to Switch, but from the launch it was noted that it was justice in power. The tegra chip that used was obsolete and, although Switch opened the door to the market of the Consolidated PConly Nintendo games and some exceptions had a perfect performance on switch. Then I had the model OLED For a time, and although in that the screen change (much better than that of the original model) and a more premium design, the performance remained the same. In these years, I have tried many games, and many of them with poor performance. Some exclusive titles were very bad and others, such as infamous’Batman Arkham Knight‘, directly They crawled into the console. Come on, a change was necessary. When they connect to the dock, although the resolution increased to show on the TV, the performance in many titles remained below the desired and the multiplatform versions were, in many occasions, objectively worse. As much (the case of ‘Hogwarts Legacy‘, for example, that looks like a game of another generation). When it was announced that Switch 2 was going to be retrocompatible, I stopped playing Switch 1 because I trusted that the performance of games that had no patch, simply by the increase in console power, improved. And it has been pleasant to verify that yes: the switching games 1 that crawled, Now in Switch 2 they are perfect. Image | Xataka This happens both in desktop and laptop mode, but there is something important to take into account: the games that previously were blurred, remain blurred in the new console because in many cases the resolution is not improved. It is something that shows in both modes, since now the dock gives 4K exit and the screen of the console has 1080p resolution compared to 1080p and 720p, respectively, of the first switch. From Switch’s embarrassing pin, we move on to a very good metal pin on switch 2. Image | Xataka And it is not just the power to play a lot of games that were impossible in the previous console (‘Cyberpunk 2077‘,’Yakuza 0‘ either ‘Street Fighter 6‘There are three examples) or exclusive releases such as the impeccable’Mario Kart World‘or the future’Donkey Kong Baniza‘, but Switch 2 feels much more premium than the previous console. Here, yes, there are nuances. If you come from an original switch, the jump is abysmal. The screen is much larger and better, the plastic of the Joy-Con is of more quality and with a velvety finish that feels great in the hands, the speakers have hit another climb, the support for the ‘tabletop’ mode is much better and, in general, everything feels more premium. The biggest joy-with a delight. Image | Xataka If you come from a Switch Oledyou will not receive such a large leap in terms of materials and screen (Switch’s OLED looks spectacular, but this Switch 2 LCD is not far behind), but you will have that extra power that feels great to the veteran console. A month ago, when We saw the console in the Paris eventI commented that Switch 2 seemed to me that It was worth only if you played in desktop. After seeing the performance improvements that put all the Switch 1 games, if you have a wide catalog of pending titles, now after trying it I consider that the jump between switch (both original and OLED) is worth both in desktop mode and in laptop. The new Switch 2 chip is not the pinnacle of technology, but Nvidia has been committed to him And this generation has something that did not have the previous one: the nuclei focused on AI for image reconstruction. Seeing what this technology can do on PC, when applied well, I consider it something that can give Switch a lot of life. I return to the case of ‘Cyberpunk 2077’: Thanks to these technologies, I think they have created A much better port than many could expect At first. If we talk about Switch Lite, the thing changes While now I am clear that it is worth changing from switch to Switch 2, if the console you want to jump is Switch Lite, I don’t have it so clear. Well, I am clear that I would wait for me. I explain myself. If you have Switch Lite It is because you want a strictly laptop console. That had no … Read more

Elon Musk asked Apple for 5,000 million for exclusive access to Spacex, according to The Information. They had 72 hours to answer

by

The iPhone have been offering emergency satellite calls Since 2022, but in reality his ambition in that field began much earlier and went much further. Now we have known that there was a peak in that project. One in which Elon Musk offered an exclusive treatment to Apple, but that the company ended up rejecting. Exclusive access to Spacex. According to The Informationin 2022 Elon Musk learned that Apple I was going to launch a satellite connection service with iPhone 14and then contacted those responsible to make them a proposal. He offered Apple to have exclusive access to Spacex to offer satellite connectivity for 18 months if the company paid 5,000 million initial dollars. After that period, Apple could pay $ 1 billion a year for the service provided by Starlink. You have 72 hours. Elon Musk gave Apple only 72 hours to make a decision, and in fact threatened the company with launching their own service for the iPhone that would make the competition. The tycoon played with better letters: it already had a constellation of operational satellites and the technology necessary to do precisely what Apple had projected. Well, no. Apple ended up rejecting Musk’s offer. Of course: announced the support of SOS satellite emergency callsbut thanks to an alliance With GlobalStar. On the other hand, Elon fulfilled his threat: two weeks before the iPhone 14, Spacex were launched announced an agreement With the T-Mobile operator that allowed smartphones users to send and receive messages in areas without mobile coverage. Project Eagle. Apple’s ambition in this area was started before. In 2015 the engineers of the company They started working in Project Eaglean initiative that would create a satellite network with thousands of satellites to provide broadband Internet not only to iPhone, but also households. It was basically Apple’s Starlink. To carry out that Apple proposal allied with Boeing, and the deployment was scheduled for 2019. But he doesn’t want to be an operator. This project ended up canceling in 2016. In The Information it indicates how Apple spent 36 million dollars in the initial tests of Project Eagle, but there were two major problems that led to their cancellation. The first, doubts about economic viability. The second, even more important, that of fear about that launch could affect the crucial relationships that Apple maintains with telephone operators. AT&T, Verizon or T-Mobile-like many others in the rest of the world-could be affected if the company offered this type of service. Apple still does not collect emergency calls. The company continues to offer the SOS satellite emergency call service in the iPhone, but the funny thing is that Still without charging for them. Some analysts believe that Apple fears that if you charge for the service you have to be subject to government regulations that affect operators. Moreover: some employees and managers of the company begin to question the viability of the long -term project. And meanwhile, Starlink extends its claws. What Apple prefers not to do is doing it big elon Musk. A year ago Spacex launched the First set of Starlink satellites with direct connection For smartphones. Today, the Starlink Direct To Cell constellation (DTC) is ready to start Offer LTE coverage from space. It is just an initial offer in beta phase, but still has 10 times more reach that the coverage of any other satellite operator with the same objective. Spacex’s absolute dominance is the great engine of a proposal that can make Starlink, that is already profitableeven more.

If the question is whether to freeze a yogurt is a healthy alternative to ice cream, science is clear about the answer

by

The kit to survive summer goes through having something cool: from icy drinks, watermelon in the fridge and, of course, ice cream. But in times of social networks and healthy lifestyle, the classic tubs or cucuruchos have been replaced by options that seem, more “healthy.” Yes, I’m talking about frozen yogurt or, in a more viral version, he Yogurt Bark. What is it? This recipe has gained popularity for being visually attractive and simple to prepare. The idea is simple, Greek yogurt is mixed with fruit or nuts and then extends on a tray, taking it to the freezer. The next day is split into pieces and enjoyed as if it were a sweet tablet, but like many viral trends, you have to go beyond the wrapping. A “healthy” option? Although natural yogurt, especially Greek, provides important nutrients such as proteins, calcium and in some probiotic cases, freezing it can alter some of its functions. According to Mayo Clinicmany probiotic strains do not survive the freezing and defrosting process, especially if proper temperature management and product formulation are not performed. In addition, it is essential to consider the composition of the yogurt used. Many yogurts available in the market are not “natural” in the strict sense: they can contain high levels of added sugars, artificial sweeteners, flavoring and thickening. And if we add sugary topings, the result can be a more caloric preparation than a moderate ration of traditional ice cream. So? Here comes the key summer question: if neither the traditional ice cream nor the frozen yogurt are ideal … so what? The answer is in balance. Eating ice cream every day is not necessarily bad, provided that the rest of your diet is healthy and have no conditions that advise you. The problem is not the ice cream alone, but how it integrates into your habits: do you take it for dessert after a balanced meal? Or do you use it to replace fruits, water or nutritious foods? In that sense, both ice cream and Yoghurt Bark They can have a place, provided they do not replace essential foods or take by system as “healthy without further ado.” THE FIT phenomenon. Taking care of food does not go on to change an ice cream ball for a frozen yogurt sheet and think that it is already. This quick replacement logic – bad, well frozen yogurt – is part of a superficial approach that has been installed thanks to Aesthetics Fit In social networks. However, all this does not go on trends or Hacks. It will understand what one eats, of exercise, rest … health is not measured in calories or Likesbut in balance.

We have been wondering for two months when the heat arrives in Spain. Aemet finally has an answer: already

by

2025 has been a year anomally wetat least for the Iberian Peninsula. The month of April the rainfall was 11% higher To the usual in peninsular Spain, and in recent weeks we have also seen many days marked by rainfall. But perhaps what will mark the end of spring are temperatures. Summer arrives. Meteorologists glimpse on the horizon an increase in temperatures from next week. A change of trend that, according to Trend predictions In the medium term of the State Meteorology Agency (Aemet) could leave us an end of May and a first half of June and warm than usual. The 36º appear. Meteorologists expect that atmospheric stability will be taken over the skies throughout the weekend. This will be translated, they explain from Eltiempo.esin an increase in temperatures. According to these forecasts, temperatures are expected above the 27th Celsius in capitals such as Valladolid or Zaragoza, while cities such as Madrid and Badajoz would exceed 30º. However, maximum temperatures will be seen in the southwest, where the thermometers could be between 35º and 36º. Three warm and dry weeks ahead. If we add to this the Aemet predictionswe can intuit that we are in the advanced transition between spring and summer. The agency hopes that the remaining week of May will be marked by higher temperatures and lower rainfall than these dates would be expected. The thermal anomaly is expected to be between the degree and the three degrees above the average in much of the country, with the interior of the southern half reaching an anomaly between three and five degrees. The situation will be similar during the first half of the month of June, with almost all of the Peninsula watching thermal anomalies above the three degrees on average. Regarding rainfall, Aemet predictions for next week draw a scenario where dry anomaly is the standard, with up to 10 mm less than usual in practically the entire Iberian Peninsula and with dry anomalies of up to 30 mm in localized areas of the northern half. The first half of June will be similar, although uncertainty gains ground. What is happening? The main culprit of this is a phenomenon closely associated with summer: the Azores anticyclone. According to Explain the meteorologist Mario Picazothe trough of cold air that during this Week will continue to lead An unstable time and storms, especially on the Mediterranean coast, will be retiring at the same time that the anticyclone appears in the west.

Is it healthy to eat an ice cream each and every day of summer? Science already has an answer

by

In a balanced and varied diet it is not difficult to find a hole for occasional whim, a sweet dessert or a Snack from time to time. Now, finding balance is not always easy, even more so when we often receive news that they point out that foods like ice cream They are healthy, something that seems to contradict our most basic ideas about nutrition. So is this true? How often can I eat ice cream? First, bad news: no, eating ice cream is not especially healthy. As with the consumption of certain alcoholic beverages such as wine, the fact that some study finds positive properties in any of its converters, does not necessarily imply that a food will be healthy. Here it is important to address several issues issues. The first is that there may be other components that cancel the positive effect detected. In the example of wine, its alcohol content tends to counteract the impact of compounds such as polyphenols. A key question to ask ourselves here is if we can obtain the beneficial compounds of a source that does not contain the harmful compounds. It is also relevant to attend to what aspect of health a certain study refers. Analysis can be carried out focused on A specific aspect of healthsuch as the incidence of cardiovascular diseases, diabetes or cancer. It is therefore important to understand that what can be good for one aspect of our health may not be so much for another. Interpreting the results of a study is important, but sometimes the methodology can also give us important clues when making this interpretation. An example we have In an article for The conversation Written by Duane Melor, expert in Medicine and Nutrition of Birmingham Aston University. Although it is an interesting result, some factors must be taken into account, the first, the fact that ice cream represents a small element of the diet and that sometimes other variables can play a bad pass. Melor In a doctoral thesis published in 2018 and focused on the heart effects of dairy products. The thesis, the expert indicates, included a study in which it was observed that, among the study population (composed of people with type 2 diabetes), those who consumed ice cream no more than twice a week showed a 12% lower risk of suffering from cardiovascular diseases, compared to those who did not consume this sweet. Although it is an interesting result, some factors must be taken into account, the first, the fact that ice cream represents a small element of the diet and that sometimes other variables can play a bad pass. “It is important to note that this bond between ice cream and heart disease only becomes apparent when other aspects of people’s health are taken into account, including how healthily they ate,” MELLOR EXPLAIN IN YOUR ARTICLE. “This suggests that eating A generally healthy diet It is possibly more important when reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease in people with type 2 diabetes, compared to eating ice cream. ” Establishing causal relationships in observational studies such as this is difficult and mellor gives us an example of why. A person with problems prior to the study may decide to stop consuming ice cream to improve their diet. This implies that this person will be seen for the purpose of the study as a person with a worse level of health despite leading a seemingly healthier life. If there is a marked trend, that is, if there are numerous cases like this, the results of the study may present biases. Practice and theory Ice cream are usually high caloric food in sugar and in fat. This, as we point out at the beginning, can fit perfectly into a balanced diet, but it does not mean that a food is healthy. He sugar consumption It has been linked to very different problems that cover from oral health to an increased risk of cancer, also through diabetes. Fats and excess calories can also facilitate the appearance of overweight or obesity. While this is not a health problem in itself, it is a risk factor in the appearance of diseases and disorders, including cardiovascular diseases. There are also studies that point in this direction, some of them cited by Melor in their piece. A study Made by an Italian researchers team and published in 2019 in the magazine Nutrientsdetected that greater ice cream consumption was linked to the appearance Non -alcoholic fatty liver diseasesomething that is not exclusive to this food, but we must also take into account when making our nutritional decisions. We explained before something that we must take into account is whether we can find healthier alternatives. Part of The benefits that can give us ice cream come from milk, thanks to elements Like calcium either The probiotics. That is, non -sugary yogurt (or less sugary), cheese, or milk can give us some of these nutrients, turning them into alternatives that may perhaps fit more into a daily diet. So how much can I eat ice cream? There is no clear response, it depends on factors such as the type of ice cream we are consuming (the nutrients that each type of ice cream provides can vary) and the size of the ration, our diet and countless factors such as our weight or our state of health. If we wanted Consume ice cream every day We should make sure first to have A varied diet (and healthy lifestyle habits), consume reduced amounts and eliminate other added sources. And still nothing guarantees that this cannot lead to other problems such as the aforementioned fatty liver disease.

If the question is how to increase protein intake, the answer is the ‘proffee’

by

Proteins should be one of the pillars on which a balanced diet. Let’s have the goal of keeping ourselves in good shape, losing weight or gaining muscle mass, Proteins are essential. However, it is not always so simple get to the recommended amountand that is where the preparation industry has found a reef. As? With processed foods that play with marketing and move to others whose protein contribution is already important. There are also protein supplements, of course, and are interesting in diets in which the physical load is considerable. But what if instead of taking only one Protein milkshakeDo we mix them with coffee? A few years ago appeared In Tiktok the fashion of the ‘proffee’ resulting from combining Protein and Coffeeand far from being something that was forgotten, it has kept In time and that is not as a bad idea as it may seem. Brands like Starbucks did not take long get into the carbut these protein coffees are something you can do at home very easily. Although you have to have a little eye combining the ingredients so that the result is not a drink of the Averno. THE CAFFEA WITH PROTEINS: ATITIING COMBINING There are many mixtures that are doubtfulbut that of coffee and proteins looks like one more. On the one hand, we have coffee, a food that, beyond its energy contribution thanks to the caffeine, It is very healthy. You have to be careful with the amount of caffeine that we eat and It is not good for all activitiesbut there are more and more studies that support the beneficial effects of coffee About our body. On the other hand, powdered protein. There are several types, but the most common are those of whey, casein and soybeans. Here You have to be careful Because it is a double -edged sword and, the more processed and additives, worse. For example, you have to control the added sugar level or the types of sweeteners they use because the labels of some powdered proteins are authentic Bibles. Above all, if it is a quality powder, it is much easier to consume a shake than a huge amount of eggs. Made the presentations, Let’s go to ‘Proffee’. Although There are suitable intervals To take protein, the truth is that we can take a shake when we feel like it. The important thing is Distribute that macronutrient among all meals Daily, but mixing them with coffee is interesting in two specific moments: In that first morning coffee We introduce protein at a time when our body is open to receive it. In that coffee we drink before training. We gain an extra energy, we contribute to the total daily protein that we should ingest and, in addition, we have the positive effects of caffeine for our sports practice. And preparing the drink does not have too much science. In fact, it is very possible that you already did it before the term ‘Proffee’ appeared on the network. Here my recommendation is that you do it as you like, but ideally you do not prepare a espresso And you add a church of protein, since the result is … well, disgusting. A simple elaboration is to unite a espressoa banana, milk (animal or vegetable) and a chip of vanilla or chocolate proteins in a crusher and make the shake. Banana and proteins sweeten the drink and mixture is curious, but it is quite good. You can remove milk if you want to consume less calories and change it for water, but that extra milk also adds proteins. You can also move from banana or find another fruit that can curdle well with coffee. What I would never do – and here each one can do what they want, but it is a recommendation – is Mix coffee with proteins that are not chocolate or vanilla. Proteins with neutral flavor, to citrus or strawberry are not too pleasant in that mixture. In the end, it is to play with amounts and ingredients until you find something that you like because, in this case, beyond a fashion with its own name on Tiktok, joining proteins and coffee is something that It can contribute a lot In active life styles. It would always be necessary to be careful not to replace meals for powders, since these real foods have a series of vitamins, minerals and other beneficial compounds and, above all, choose a protein shake that not up to sugar. And, if you test and you do not like it, do not take it that, despite the existence of the I think for humansfood is also to enjoy.
