The Spanish Galeon San José was sunk transporting 20,000 million dollars. Mexico and Colombia are going to bring that treasure to light

by

The history of San José Galeon It is very particular. The ship left the shipyards of Guipúzcoa in 1706 to the sea of ​​the Caribem, and there it was loaded to the flag with gold, gems and jewels from Peruvian, Bolivian and Mexican mines. It was a Awesome boat With 40 meters of length, 64 cannons and a crew of 600 people, but was sunk after an attack of British privateers in 1708, leaving only 10 survivors and that juicy treasure in the depths of the sea off the coast of Cartagena. It is one of the More than 1,500 Spanish Spanish ships Through the world and Mexico and Colombia are collaborating to ‘rescue’ those treasures that have been in the back of the ocean for more than 300 years. It has a value My dear of 20,000 million dollars and is the protagonist of an authentic soap opera. A soap opera. The history of San José did not end when the ship touched background. In fact, I may only start. In 1981, the Search Armed Exploration Company claimed to have located the Spanish wreck and delivered the coordinates Not Spain, but Colombia. The treatment? Supposedly, access to half of the treasure. However, in 2015, the Colombian government said they found the remains in a place different from that indicated above. That enraged the company Cazatesoros, who claimed that it was a strategy so that Colombia did not have to share the treasure. Neither short nor lazy, former president Juan Manuel Santos proudly said it was one of the most important treasures in Colombiaand everything pointed out that Search Armada would not see a cent. Meanwhile, Spain was not with crossed arms and appealed to his sovereignty about Galeon. Investigating. In 2024, with the wreck even in dispute, the Commission for the Investigation and Accusation of the House of Representatives of Colombia opened an investigation against former president Santos. The reason? “Intrusion and looting” of the Spanish Galeon. “It’s not a treasure”. The current Colombian government has another point of view and, in May last year, declared as the protected archaeological area the pungent area. The Minister of Cultures of Colombia, Juan David Correa, said that it was “the first time that an archaeological heritage area submerged at such depth is declared, it is historical for Latin America. We already have a special plan of underwater archaeological management.” Protection. The objective, then, is to guarantee the protection and conservation of the Galeon, as Alhena Caicedo, director of the Colombian Institute of Anthropology and History, and said history, and The doors were not closed to treat the wreck as shared heritage. The objective now is to see what the ship was transporting and catalog it. It seems that it is not a treasure rescue mission, such as Correa itself: “It is not an extraction mission for economic value. What we want is to leave Colombia the possibility of a scientific-cultural mission that will have several stages and that starts today.” Mosaic rebuilt from photogrammetry files Mexico + Colombia. And that is where the National Institute of Anthropology and History -INAH- of Mexico comes into play. In an initiative called “Towards the heart of the San José Galeon”, Colombian and Mexican researchers are collaborating to be able to carry out this ‘recovery’ process. Mexico has a great experience when making archaeological expeditions (with recent examples such as the entire Mayan train networkthe application of New techniques to explore the interior of pyramids and the Underground stay mapping). A underwater expedition is different, but there they also have something to say. Colombian researchers asked INAH members about their experience in the project of Our Lady of Juncala ship that shipwrecked in 1613 in the Gulf of Mexico and with which there are parallels in the case of the San José expedition. In addition, between Colombia and Mexico there are archaeologists support programs that are formed in a cross way in both countries, as if it were an Erasmus of archeology. Digitize everything. Therefore, Mexico is advising Colombia, but it is these who, using submarine robots, are exploring San José and its surroundings in a program consisting of four phases: First phase (it began in May 2024): an underwater research ship comes into play with dynamic and acoustic positioning technologies, as well as a remote operating vehicle with sensors that has the mission of reaching the site. Second phase: generation of images of the site with which to prepare a record of the archaeological evidence for the classification of materials and their origin. THIRD PHASE: prediagnosis of conservation to establish starting points on the level of deterioration of the elements. Fourth phase: Digital documenting the archaeological context through photogrammetry techniques for informative purposes. It seems that Colombia’s plans are clear and, according to the details of the different phases, it does not seem that the goal is to get everything they find out of the water, but to catalog it so that we can see the state of the ship and its shipment 300 years later (in addition to the wealth it carried when it was sunk). Next steps. These last weeks, however, There have been important findings. The ICANH confirmed new “areas of interest” on the site, with Chinese porcelain, ingots, weapons and currencies that allow us to know more about the context of the sunken galleon. In addition, both INAH and the Ministry of Culture of Colombia have set October 2025 and the date on which they will detail the next steps of the mission. The idea is to profile that strategy of ‘towards the heart of the Galeon’ in order to exhibit tangible results before the end of the current presidential mandate in 2026. And, surely, it will be then when the controversy between Spain, Colombia, the indigenous community Qhara Qhara that demands Rights on the Treasury and the company that claims to have discovered the wreck to a new level.

Now they have decided to kill her and bring her closer to Netflix

by

The face washing that Mediaset has given to its streaming platform, until now known as mitele, and what is called Mediaset Infinityit has been spectacular. A considerable reformulation in the visual, technical streaming With their same weapons. The new Mediaset Infinity. Announced at the end of May, this change equals the Mediaset Spain website with that of the Italian matrix of the group. Among the web sections are both live and letter emissions, with exclusive content derived from linear programs and even in the style of what Atresmedia does, original productions for this digital environment. Access to all contents becomes completely free, something that was limited in Mitele. There will also be a premium part, heiress of Mitele Plus in which there will be no advertising interruptions and there will be the possibility of starting a direct from its beginning and downloading content. A family air. It is inevitable to think of a clear inspiration for this redesign: Netflix and the rest of the platforms of streaming that have gone in their shadow (at least the netflix prior to last and much discussed redesign, openly thought to imitate the style of social networks as Tiktok). In Mediaset Infinity we have categories that follow each other horizontally and extend vertically, with visual and very recognizable icons, and organization for seasons and chapters within each program. The influence is even evident in the highlights of the Homeand it is not a bad idea: any spectator has already become accustomed to the use of these menus and organization almost intuitively. Technical improvement. The guts of this new Mitele incarnation have also improved, with an optimized search system, a better organized user area and, above all, an important leap in terms of speed and accessibility. A year and a half of joint work between Mediaset Spain and Mediaset Italy that has set in a remarkable jump for the platform: now the content search is much faster and, above all, moving through the platform is as effective as in any other streaming platform, without the need for unnecessary waiting for seeking programs or hidden chapters. The reorganization of the page works perfectly. Blur and new account. Since its creation in 2011, Mitele has experienced abundant problems, especially technical type: access difficulties that demanded to resalrate the application, Poor performance even with good connections, limited compatibility with Many devices (especially with certain Smart TV models), reproduction errors and availability … a series of problems that were the reflection of an app that had been outdated and that had not been able to evolve at the same rate as the connections and user devices. All the same. It is not an exclusive problem, yes, by Mitele: traditional television have always had problems adapting to Smart TV and consumption on demand. The motives have been varied, from technical and hardware limitations (by compatibility of new televisions with apps) to changes in the business model (to traditional chains, accustomed to a linear model, they have a hard time facing a model that requires flexibility, investment in technology and new forms of monetization, apart from negotiating new emission rights and adapting content), passing through a fierce competition of the streaming platforms, which they They have an advantage because they are native. Inherit users. What Infinity is going to be found are Mitele users: 3.7 million unique users in January, A growth of 16% With respect to the previous year, in addition to almost 2 million viewers on average a day on the platform. Undoubtedly, this growth has played in favor of encouraging Mediaset to make the leap towards the transformation into the new platform, no matter how and a half of development a relevant investment may have needed. A push for Telecinco. Thanks to the huge impulse that the latest edition of ‘The Island of Temptations’ is giving to all platform programsto ‘late’ seems to work Better without his alma mater since, on the other hand, the 1 does not seem to settle completely or in its disastrous afternoons nor in the Competition with ‘El Hormiguero‘, Tele5 has found a break. Vespertine bets such as ‘Jorge’s newspaper’ are consolidating themselves as some of the most value for Telecinco, which he needed from the output of ‘Save Me’ from his grill programs that provided him with solidity. This new platform is another step in a proposal of greater modernity for the group, as well as more ease of access to its programs. Something that undoubtedly their spectators will appreciate, knowing how the contents of both spaces are contaminated.

Something weird is happening with the clouds of the planet. Something that will bring not very pleasant consequences

by

Where are the clouds born? The answer to that question can become much more complex than it seems. Because yes, the clouds are formed in the sky, or in the atmosphere, but the layer of gases that surrounds our planet is vast and in it intermingle predictable factors with chaos. Complex and changing. Trying to answer this question, some scientists have encountered an additional problem: the place where the clouds are born It is changing. The area of ​​the earth’s surface in which these clusters arise has moved and has shrunk what has important implications in the climate and weather of the planet. They are the results of two studies published in recent years, The first In August 2024 in the magazine Climate Dynamicsand The second In May of this year in Geophysical Research Letters. Three cloud stripes. The first of the studies observed how the cloud areas located on the oceans of both hemispheres have moved and contracted throughout the last 35 years. The study focused on three zones: one, called Interopical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) located near Ecuador Earth; and the other two located in average latitudes, approximately between parallel and 60 north and south. Through observations of instruments such as the modis (Moderate Resolution Imptotroadiometer) On board the Aqua satellite, the team was able to map the areas of greatest cloudiness as well as their evolution over time. Interpreting the data. According to The US Space Agency explainsNASA, the tormentous clouds that run through our planet are usually forming in the vertices of large -scale atmospheric circulation areas, such as hagley cells, polar and hard -latter cells or average latitude cells. More specifically in the areas where the currents associated with these cells converge and make warm and humid air ascend. In contrast, the convergence areas where currents carry cold and dry air from upper layers of the atmosphere to lower altitudes correspond to the areas where the heavens tend to be more clear. Change in the trend. The study of the clouds gives us clues about the dynamics of these torments of the planet. The responsible team calculated for example that the area contracted between 1.5% and 3% per decade In recent years. As NASA details, the ITCZ ​​narrowed and the tormented areas in average latitudes moved to their respective poles at the same time that they also contracted. In contrast, the subtopics clear areas expanded. More than a matter of color. The most recent of the studies addresses the climatic implications of change in the cloud patterns of the planet. And it is that the climate our “blue marble” depends a lot on the clouds that overshadow the atmosphere and dye it occasionally in white since this layer of clouds depends on the amount of solar energy that reaches us due to the albedo. The clouds reflect the light and therefore the solar energy that reaches the surface of the Earth, so less clouds implies more energy and more heat. According to study estimates, change implies that oceans absorb 0.37 watts per square meter more per decade due to these changes. And climate change? We could fall into the error of assuming that this change explains the tendency towards global warming that we associate with anthropogenic climate change but the truth is that climatic models already incorporate these changes into them. In fact, a previous estimate made by the instruments of Ceres (Clouds and The Earth’s Radiant Energy System) estimated at 0.47 watts per square meter and for decade the increase in solar radiation that the planet receives as a whole. These changes contribute to the “energy imbalance” that implies heating, but they do not explain it for themselves. “These new findings suggest that the loss of oceanic tormented clouds is a key factor in the imbalance,” He explained George Tseliudis to NASAmember of the team responsible for the studies. According to the expert, these changes could also Help explain The anomalo oceanic warming seen a couple of years ago and that caused the North Atlantic to beat numerous temperature records.

China prepares its next technological assault. Huawei and Ubtech have just allying to bring humanoid robots to homes

by

Humanoid robotics is ceasing to be a laboratory experiment. Bank of America Global Research CREE that its mass adoption could begin in 2028, with an industry that, if the forecasts were met, will move billions annually. Actually, the change is already underway: in 2025 about 18,000 units should be delivered and it is expected that by 2030 the million annual shipments will be reached, with a view to exceeding 10 million around 2035. While Tesla, Boston Dynamics and Figure AI develop their own humanoids in the US, in China a strategic alliance with global ambitions has been forged. As Sina points outHuawei, one of the country’s largest technological ones, and Ubtech Robotics, one of the most consolidated developers in the sector, have signed an agreement to collaborate in the development of humanoid robots for factories and homes. China steps on the accelerator in the humanoid robots sector The announcement was made in Shenzhen, a city where both companies are headded and considered by one of the main technological centers in southern China. As explained, the objective is to accelerate the transition of humanoid robotics “of laboratory innovation to the Large -scale adoption in industrial, domestic environments and other scenarios. ”Huawei will contribute its Ascend processors and Kunpengas well as cloud computing capabilities and generative AI models. The Alliance also contemplates the creation of an innovation center dedicated to the so -called “incarnate intelligence”: an approach that seeks to integrate cognitive functions into robotic bodies, which requires advanced coordination between algorithms, sensors, movement control and decision -making in real time. According to Leaderobot consultancythe Chinese domestic market of humanoid robotics could double this year and reach 5.3 billion yuan (about 665 million euros). Several of the country’s main manufacturers have already announced plans to overcome 1,000 units produced in 2025. Ubtech is one of them. Its president, Zhou Jian, confirmed it in March. Tien Kung Xingzhe, one of Ubtech’s robots This movement is part of a broader national strategy. As the New York Times detailsthe Chinese government is betting on industrial automation as part of its response to several challenges: commercial challenges, the fall in the birth and aging of the population. In factories such as Zeekr in NOBO, robots already perform tasks that previously required specialized labor. The objective is to maintain low costs and reinforce global competitiveness. And there is more. With the aim of encouraging the adoption of humanoid robots in the automobile industry, the Chinese authorities asked manufacturers to rent units, record videos in real environments and send them to the government. Even in the symbolic field there are blunt gestures: in April, Beijing organized a half marathon with 12,000 human runners and 20 humanoid robots. Only six crossed the goal, but the message was clear. Bank of America Global Research expect this sector evolve in three stages: first in factories and logistics (2025-2027), then in commercial and educational services (2028-2034), And finally in homeswith care and domestic applications from 2035. If the forecasts are met, in 2060 there could be 3,000 million humanoid robots in use worldwide. The challenge is not less. There are still technological bottlenecks, high production costs and dependence on tools and chips manufactured outside China. But with alliances such as Huawei and Ubtech, the Asian giant seems to be taking another determined step not to be left behind. What is clear is that the career to develop more advanced humanoid robots is underway. Images | Rubaitul Azad | Ubtech Robotics In Xataka | Klarna presumed that AI did the work of 700 people.

Many Third-Party cartridges do not bring the game, they include a download key

by

One of the advantages most valued by many players of the Nintendo switch original has begun to blur with The arrival of his successor. Until now, physical supports included the game data, which allowed playing directly from the cartridge without the need to connect to the Internet. Of course, the updates were necessary if you wanted to access improvements or additional content. With the Switch 2Nintendo has introduced a new format: the “Game key cards“O Game-Key Cards. These cards must be inserted in the console to play, such as a conventional cartridge, but do not contain the full game. Instead, they store a key that allows you to download the game from the Nintendo servers. That is, Internet connection, storage space and time to install it. It is not new, but now it impacts. The existence of this format was announced in a Nintendo Direct, but at that time it was not known how much the rules of the game would change. Now we are seeing it: Gematsu has pointed out That most third-party games announced in Japan for Nintendo Switch 2 will arrive in Game-Key Card format. Information that has been replicated by means as VGC and Nintendo Lifewhich has given it greater visibility. To know if a game is in this new format, just look at the lower left corner of the box: a key-shaped icon indicates that it is a Game-Key Card. Some of the games that will arrive in this format are: ‘Bravely Default: Flying Fairy’ ‘Daemon X Machina: Titanic Sion’ ‘Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddesss’ ‘Puyo Puyo Tetris 2s’ ‘Raidou Kuzunoha vs. The Soulless Army Remaster ‘ ‘Shine Post: Be your idol!’ ‘Sonic X Shadow Generations’ ‘Street Fighter 6’ ‘Suikoden I & II HD Remaster’ ‘Survival Kids’ ‘Yakuza 0: Director’s Cut’ Only two games presented so far in Japan for Switch 2 include complete data in the cartridge: ‘Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma’ and ‘Story of Seasons: Grand Bazaar’. Both are titles in Nintendo Switch 2 Edition version. What is a Nintendo Switch 2 Edition? Games under the label Nintendo Switch 2 Edition They are existing titles that are launched next to a specific update package to take advantage of the capacities of the new console. That is, they include the original game and an improvement patch adapted to Switch 2 hardware. CD Projakt has confirmed that ‘Cyberpunk 2077‘It will be launched in traditional cartridge. But in stores like Smyths Toys either Amazon USA You can see Game-Key Cards in games such as ‘Hitman: World of Assassination’, ‘Street Fighter 6’ or ‘Bravely Default: Flying Fairy’. The community responds. In social networks, the reaction has not been waiting. The check “Does it play?” He criticized that this format leaves players “without property, without conservation, without choice.” Other users alert of a scenario where physical games are losing ground. A Game-Key without access to eShop becomes a little useful object. If the game is not stored in the cartridge and the servers fall or close, there will be no way to download it. The theory: Nintendo is limiting the options? On pages like Reddit And YouTube is speculated with that Nintendo could be offering only two cartridge options: one very small and another of 64 GB. Without intermediate options, many studies would opt for Game-Key Cards to avoid high manufacturing costs. Of course, for now, all this are just conjectures. Nintendo has not confirmed anything.

Netflix and AI enthusiasm bring Wall Street to the verge of an all-time high

by

NEW YORK — Netflix, Oracle and other big tech companies boosted the New York Stock Exchange on Wednesday, as profits at those companies rose and enthusiasm grew about the revenue prospects that artificial intelligence can generate. The S&P 500 rose 37.13 points, or 0.6%, to 6,086.37, approaching its all-time high set last month. The Dow Jones Industrial Average added 130.92 points, or 0.3%, to 44,156.73, and the Nasdaq Composite rose 252.56, or 1.3%, to 20,009.34. The gains came even as most U.S. stocks fell under the weight of another rise in Treasury yields. For example, smaller company stocks in the Russell 2000 index lost 0.6%, and about two out of every three stocks in the S&P 500 sank. However, the gains from large influential stocks were more than enough to make up for it. Netflix helped lead the rise after it announced that live events such as American football games and a fight between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul helped it add nearly 19 million subscribers during the latest quarter. It also reported higher profits than analysts expected, and indicated that it is increasing subscription prices in the United States and other countries. Netflix titles rose 9.7%. The Netflix logo on a remote control. (Jenny Kane/Associated Press) On the other hand, Travelers advanced 3.2% after also beating analyst expectations for its earnings in the last quarter. The insurer said gains on its investments and growth in net written premiums helped it overcome losses created by Hurricane Milton, which hit the Florida coast in the Gulf of Mexico in October, and other catastrophes. Some of the market’s strongest boosts came from companies related to artificial intelligence. Oracle rose 6.8% after advancing 7.2% the previous day, ahead of the planned announcement — which ultimately came late on Tuesday — about Stargate, a joint venture that the White House says will begin building data centers. and the generation of electricity necessary for the further development of artificial intelligence in Texas. The partnership formed by Oracle, OpenAI and SoftBank will invest up to $500 billion. Shares of SoftBank Group Corp. in Tokyo rose 10.6%. Other AI-related stocks also gained ground, continuing their already fantastic run. Nvidia, the company whose chips are driving much of the movement toward AI, rose 4.4%. Its shares are above $147 after just two years ago they were below $18. The yield on the 10-year Treasury bond rose from 4.57% to 4.60%. It had been largely retreating since an encouraging update on inflation last week, but is still well above its position in September, when it was below 3.65%. In the cryptocurrency market, where prices have risen on hopes that President Donald Trump will make Washington more cryptocurrency-friendly, bitcoin was just above $104,000. On Monday it was above $109,000, a record.
