It is so unusual that the government has created a commission for possible crises

by

An exceptional cosmic carambola looms over Spain. Until Three solar eclipses will cross the Spanish territory In less than three years, starting with the most spectacular of all: the total solar eclipse of August 2026, which will obscure a third of the country. It is so unusual that the government has mobilized thirteen ministries to create a contingency commission. The eclipses trio. On August 12, 2026, a total solar eclipse will draw a 200 km line From the northwest to southwest Spainentering through Asturias and dating Castellón to cross the Balearic Islands just at sunset. The totality phase will last about two minutes on the central line. It will be the first eclipse of this type in the Peninsula since 1905. On August 2, 2027, the shadow of a total solar eclipse will enter through the Bay of Cádiz, crossing the strait and leaving Almeria. Ceuta, Tarifa, Cádiz Capital and part of Malaga will enjoy almost five minutes of dark in mid -morning. It will also be one of the longest eclipses of the century. On January 26, 2028, Spain will also live an annular solar eclipse. The “Fire Ring” will travel the country from Southwest to Northeast shortly before sunset. From Huelva, Sevilla and Córdoba to Valencia, Aragon and part of the Balearic Islands. The annularity will be around seven minutes and will be seen with the sun. Outside the strip it will be observed as partial. The government mobilizes. “The eclipses trio will be an unprecedented astronomical phenomenon, which can virtually only be seen in Spain between 2026 and 2028”, Minister Diana Morant affirmed. “In the Government we are already working to face the logistics and security challenges that this historical event will mean.” The magnitude of the event has led the Council of Ministers to Approve the creation of a special commission To organize and coordinate all actions. It will be formed by representatives of thirteen ministries. From science and transport to interior, defense or ecological transition, through the National Astronomical Observatory and the great astrophysical institutes of the country. The Secretary of State for Science, Juan Cruz Cigudosa, will preside over the Commission, which hopes to convene the first meeting at the end of August. The challenges of eclipses trio The chaotic experiences lived in the United States during the eclipses of 2017 and 2024 already put on the table the main open fronts: Congestions and accidents. The government expects an influx of hundreds of thousands or millions of people. The strip of totality of the eclipse of 2026 will only touch land in Greenland, Iceland and a much more populated and sunny country: Spain. The foreseeable result is the collapse of highways and secondary roads, with kilometer traffic jams that could block the passage to emergency vehicles. Oregon is the mirror in which nobody wants to look: he had Your overflowing access roads for three days in 2017. Infrastructure overload in emptied Spain. Many of the best observation points They are found in rural or coastal areas With limited resources. The sudden arrival of hundreds of thousands of people could cause the exhaustion of basic services such as drinking water, food, fuel or bathrooms. Mobile coverage could also saturate, leaving those same incommunicado people. The government plans to enable “minimum services” at the observation points. Extreme fire risk. Total solar eclipses will coincide with summer: drought, high temperatures and thousands of cars parked in fields and gutters. It is the perfect recipe for a disaster. The risk of forest fire will shoot. The precedent is, again, A fire in Oregon in 2017 which forced to evacuate hundreds of households in the middle of the totality zone a few days before the eclipse. Pest of false eclipses glasses. Looking directly at a solar eclipse without adequate protection can cause retinopathy, Irreversible damage in the retina. To see an eclipse it is crucial to wear approved glasses with ISO 12312-2. The problem is that with each eclipse the falsifications between vendors that make their August proliferate. In 2017, Amazon had to withdraw thousands of units and reimburse money from buyers. The first big photovoltaic blackout. A challenge of the 21st century. Spain has 25% of installed solar power. A total eclipse will cause an abrupt fall of the photovoltaic generation of up to 20 GW in less than an hour, followed by an equally fast climb when the sun reappears. Managing this undercut and the peak that follows will be a major challenge for Red Electrica, which will have to coordinate energy reserves to guarantee the stability of the system, as European operators did during the eclipse of 2015. Tourist saturation and its effects. Astronomical tourism is a blessing, but it can also be a problem. Airbnb talks about An 830% increase In rural accommodation searches by August 2026. prices fired in hotels and rentals, temporary gentrification and the possible displacement of the usual tourist are expected. In addition, there may be an impact on labor productivity: workers taking the day to see the phenomenon. The United States estimated losses of almost 700 million dollars during working hours. The unpredictable meteorology. The whole plan can jump through the air if clouds appear. A forecast of covered skies would cause massive displacement at the last minute to places with a better prognosis, multiplying chaos on roads. Astrophysico Alejandro Sánchez summed it up in The country: “Due to the unpredictable of the weather conditions, it is as if we did not know where the World Cup final will be celebrated until a few hours before.” The public cost and the environmental footprint. Deploying a device from this magnitude has a cost: traffic reinforcements, health, mass cleaning … to which the environmental footprint must be added: abandoned garbage, erosion of natural places and carbon emissions of millions of displacements. Problems that the contingency commission will have to value. A historical opportunity Despite the challenges, the Iberian trio of eclipses It will be a golden opportunity for science, education and … Read more

“I have created more billionaires in my management team than any other CEO in the world”

by

Jensen Huang is In the epicenter of one of the industries with the greatest Growth potential in which some are managed dizzy investment figures. That flow of money, also permeates higher wages, especially in those strategic positions such as It has shown well Mark Zuckerberg with his last rounds of signing of talent. Within the framework of a round of interviews with AI as a central axis, the CEO of Nvidia has presumed how well paid its closest collaborators. So Huang does not fear that his competition comes to steal his best talent. “They are very good. You don’t have to feel sorry for anyone in my management team,” Huang said. The Nvidia billionaire club. In a thematic days about organized AI by all-in podcastJensen Huang answered a question of moderators about the recent signings and millionaire hiring between AI specialists: “I have created more billionaires in my management team than any other executive director of the world.” Under the stock market results From the company, this statement is absolutely true since a good part of the remuneration of Nvidia’s responsibility positions have a package of actions linked to their position, and the rest of the company’s employees can take advantage of the Share purchase plan for employees (ESPP for the acronym in English of Employee Stock Purchase Plan). Through these plans, much of its template has become a millionaire. Working in the most profitable company has advantages. The price of Nvidia’s shares have not stopped growing in recent years, so any employee who had invested a minimum initial capital, would have increased substantially. According to published data by Fortunesince 2019, the company has increased 3,776% in the price of its shares, with a 170% rise in the last year. With a heritage valued at about 151,000 million dollars, Huang has made Nvid Become Millionaires. Small and well paid teams. Nvidia is one of the companies with Greater profitability by employee. That is, it is able to generate huge benefits with a relatively reduced template. Huang ensures that this is the formula for success in AI investigation. “Some 150 researchers in AI, with sufficient financing, can probably create an OpenAi. There is something elegant in small teams,” said the CEO of Nvidia. Huang said that this approach not only maximizes the performance of the teams, but also facilitates to make its “extraordinarily rich” members if they reach the expected success, putting as an example the OpenAI researchers or to the development team of Deepseek. Nothing moves in Nvidia without knowing Huang. Another feature of Huang’s leadership is that CEO knows everything that happens in your company thanks to a peculiar system Email -based that allows him to be aware of what he does or worries to the last employee of the company. This proximity allows Huang to affirm that it personally supervises “the compensation of all employees until today … and always increases the company’s expense on operational expenses.” According to Huang, there is a reason for weight to take care of your employees, “if you take care of people, everything else takes care of themselves.” The CEO has declared a joke: “Yes, I carry Stock Options In the pocket right now. “ Nvidia’s “gold wives”. However, these economic incentives of Nvidia are associated with a Extreme labor demandwhich implies eternal days seven days a week. Despite this intensity, Nvidia has registered a personnel rotation index below the average of its peers. According to his 2024 sustainability reportin that year it was only 2.7%, compared to the 17.7% that the semiconductor industry records on average. Bloomberg defined This phenomenon has been described as “gold wives” for those employees and managers who access these actions packages.

They already use a mixture created by algorithms for their data centers

by

Goal has used a concrete mixture designed by algorithms in one of its data centers. According to the companythis formula promises to be more sustainable, faster to apply and has been developed with open source tools. With this approach, not only is it sought move towards zero emissions: Also accelerate the construction of infrastructure that grow to time, As the data center that is raising under provisional structures demonstrates. Invisible concrete weight. Few materials are as omnipresent as concrete. It is used on roads, bridges, homes … and also in data centers where a good part of our digital life is housed. The problem is that manufacturing its components, especially cement, generates a huge amount of CO2. The World Economic Forum indicates that It represents about 8% of global emissions. Goal has proposed to reduce that footprint without compromising the resistance or work speed. And that’s where his new model enters. An AI that does not create chatbots, but mixtures. To develop this system, goal was allied with Amrize – One of the world’s largest cement manufacturers – and with the Urban-Champaign University of Illinois. Together they have created an AI model that proposes concrete compositions. The model is based on Bayesian optimization And it is built with Botorch and AX, two open source tools developed by the goal itself. A slab test in the Rosemount Data Center The challenge was not minor: each mixture involves combining different types of cement, aggregates, water, additives and supplementary materials such as scum or flying ashes. The exact proportion, its origin or even the time of the year can alter the result. Traditionally, they explain, validate a new formula has been for weeks. With AI, this process accelerates because the system learns from the previous data, proposes new promising combinations and refines its predictions after each test. Implementation of the concrete formulation generated by AI in the data center From the laboratory to the field. One of the first large -scale validations was made in the data center that Meta builds in Rosemount, Minnesota. There, the contractor Mortensen applied the new mixture in one of the building’s support slabs. The objective was not only to check its resistance, but also its workability and the final finish: these slabs must be perfectly smooth and durable. The result, according to the firm, exceeded all technical standards. The formula designed by AI not only met the demands of resistance and cure, but also behaved well into work: it was poured without problems and offered an adequate surface. After two iterations, and with minimal human adjustments, the model had generated a recipe that improved the usual industrial formulas in speed, resistance and potential for emission reduction. An open model. The system developed by goal is not a commercial product or a closed tool. The company has published the code, data and technical approach in An open github repository called SustainableConcrete. The idea is not to keep the formula, but share the method: a way of applying artificial intelligence to concrete design that can adapt to other works, suppliers or materials. Touch wait to know if we will see more initiatives like this. This could facilitate the adoption of alternative mixtures in a variety of constructions. As we have seen, goal has not invented a new material. What he has done is to use AI to find new concrete formulas.

Some researchers created a company where all employees were AI agents. They did not make a quarter of the work

by

With a generative AI that already shows Signs of decelerationthe next great jump already glimpses on the horizon: the AI agents. Unlike chatbots, an AI agent can be given a complex task and will act independently, making decisions on the march to achieve their goal. Everything pointed to the fact that 2025 was going to be the year of the agents ia And, to verify it, some researchers did A curious experiment: They put several of these agents to work in a fictitious company. It didn’t go very well. A fictitious company. The study was conducted by Benegie Mellon University researchers and sought to measure the effectiveness of the AI ​​agents. In it, they created an environment that pretended to be a small company dedicated to the development of software to which theagentcompany baptized. The company had 18 employees and an objective plan for the sprint quarterly. In addition, they had enough internal documentation such as an employee manual, human resources policies or good practices guide. Employees communicated through a Slack type chat program for communication between them. He Staff. The AI ​​agents who put to work in Theagentcompany included Google, OpenAi, Meta and Anthropic models. They were assigned roles such as Financial Analyst, Project Manager or Software Engineering. A technology director and a human resources manager were also created to which each agent could contact if they need it. Among the tasks they had to do was write code, search the Internet, open programs or organize data on spreadsheets. Quite typical in a company of these characteristics. The problems. The agents began to work and at first everything was going well, but it soon appeared problems and misunderstandings. One of the agents had to access information, but a popup appeared on the screen and could not see it. Although I could close it by clicking the X of the upper right corner, he asked for help to human resources, which told him that the computer department would soon contact him to solve it. He never contacted and the task was not completed. The agents also developed a curious behavior when they were not clear what were the steps to follow. Sometimes they cheated and created shortcuts to skip the difficult part of a task. For example, an agent did not find the person who had to ask a question. What he did was change the name to another user for that of the user he had to ask. The results. The employee medal of the month was taken by Anthropic and his Claude 3.5 Sonnet model. But, although he was the best, he only managed to complete 24% of the tasks assigned to him. Germini 2.0 Flash and Chatgpt only completed 10% of the tasks and the worst employee was Nova Pro 1 of Amazon with 1.7% of completed tasks. The most common failures were caused due to lack of social skills and not being well looking for the Internet. The threat of AI agents. According to the last World Economic Forum Reportthe AI ​​will destroy more than 90 million jobs in the next five years (although it is also expected to be created almost twice new positions) and AI agents have a threat to many jobs. However, experiments like this show that technology is not yet ready to replace 100% of a human employee. Currently, AI agents They make many mistakes And, like Tesla’s Autopilot, for now it is better Do not remove your hands from the steering wheel.

The material created in China that lowers the temperature of the buildings without consuming a single electricity watt

by

A world where buildings are not only well isolated from abroad, but cool them as much as an air conditioning, without consuming a single electricity watt. That is what a team of Chinese and Australian scientists promises with their new bioplastic material. Short. Researchers at the University of Zhengzhou and the University of Australia del Sur presented a biodegradable film capable of cooling buildings without using electricity. According to a study published in Cell Reports Physical Sciencethis coating can reduce the temperature of a surface to 9.2 ° C in full sun. 9 degrees less. In the material field tests, carried out on a Zhengzhou roof, east of China, the results were overwhelming. In full sun, during noon, the material reached a cooling peak of 9.2 ° C below the ambient temperature. The average tests was -4.9 ° C during the day and -5.1 ° C during the night, which is equivalent to a cooling power of up to 136 watts per square meter. The film takes advantage of a known phenomenon, “passive radiative cooling” (PRC). In a nutshell, it is a lining designed to do two things: reflect sunlight so as not to heat up, and emit internal heat outwards. But it does it in an extremely efficient way. According to the simulations presented by the researchers, apply this film on the roofs of a city like Lhasa, in the Tibet, would reduce annual cooling consumption up to 20.3%. How it works. The “metaphilm” is made of polyactic acid, better known as Pla plastic; A material derived from plant sources such as corn or sugarcane, so it is biodegradable. The turn is how researchers managed to create a porous and continuous structure through a novel phase separation technique at low temperature. This microstructure has an ultrabaja thermal conductivity (of 0.049 w/m · k) and reflects almost all the solar radiation that affects it (98.7%), avoiding the initial heating and heat transfer to the interior. It also emits heat abroad thanks to its porosity. The manufacturing process is relatively simple: the PL is dissolved in chloroform, crystallizes at -20 ° C and then ethanol is used to induce phase separation before drying the film. This method is suitable for large -scale production, which paves the path for commercialization. More resistant than other attempts. One of the great challenges of previous radiative cooling materialsespecially biodegradables, it was their durability. But this new coating has demonstrated exceptional durability. The researchers submerged him in acid for 120 hours and then exposed him to ultraviolet radiation equivalent to eight months of weathering exposure. Surprisingly, the material not only survived, but maintained a cooling performance between 5 ° C and 6.5 ° C below the ambient temperature after the hard aging process. The team attributes it to its high crystallinity, which gives it a thermal and chemical stability much higher than that of its predecessors. The applications go far beyond the roofs of the buildings. Researchers already explore their use in transport, to cool vehicles, agriculture, to protect crops, electronics and even the biomedical field, to apply to dressings that regulate the temperature.

Vlex, the startup that has created “the chatgpt of lawyers”

by

Oakley Capital has sold Vlexthe Spanish legal platform, to the Canadian Clio for more than 1,000 million dollars, according to Expansion. This operation makes the company founded by the FAUS brothers a quarter of a century ago in the sixth active Spanish unicorn. Why is it important. This sale represents the greatest success of Oakley Capital in Spain and confirms the unstoppable boom in the sector LegalTech. The valuation involves multiplying the VLEX value in less than three years, since Oakley bought it for 70 million At the end of 2022. In detail. Vlex operates as the “chatgpt of lawyers”: It offers access to more than 1,000 million legal documents from one hundred countries through its AI ‘assistantVincent ai‘. Its 2.8 million users include from Harvard Law School to Legal Deloitte. Every day incorporates 350,000 new documents to its platform. Oakley Capital, the British manager who in Spain controls idealistic and has invested in Seedgdemonstrated its smell to detect opportunities before boom. When it was done with VLEX control, the company barely generated five million Ebitda. Between the lines. He Timing Oakley has been impeccable: he invested just before the generative AI put the world up, including the legal sector. The pandemia had already accelerated the digitalization of the offices that were still behind, but Chatgpt changed the story. And tools like Vincent ai ceased to be a curiosity, something complementary, to become fundamental. The threat. For its rivals, this operation is a turning point. Cliovalued at 3,000 million and backed by Goldman Sachs, has suddenly been made with the largest digitalized legal library in the world. The consolidation of the sector accelerates. Deepen. The ecosystem LegalTech It continues to attract a lot of money in investments. The best example is Harvey, American competitor from Vincent AI. It was valued at 5,000 million A few weeks ago, when he got heavyweight as investors such as OpenAi or Capital Sequoia. And there is Vlex, demonstrating that Spain is able to compete in the First Technological Division. Not in fundamental models, but in more specialized products, more than niche. Like the new unicorn.

In the mid -twentieth century the nuclear was fashionable. So someone created “atomic” tomatoes and cucumbers

by

The human being has from the dawn of agriculture trying to improve their crops. Before the arrival of advanced laboratory techniques such as CRISPR or the tools that the transgenics gave them, our species tested with a retahíla of various strategies to obtain larger fruits and vegetablestastier or more resistant. Some more successful than others. Some that bordered the demential. To the latter group belongs to the atomic horticulture, Atomic Gardening. The name of the technique speaks for itself. Atomic horticulture started from the idea of ​​bombarding radiation plantations. The objective of atomic horticulture, or at least the nominal objective of this, was to force mutations that improve the properties of food that were extracted from them. For this, the orchards were arranged in concentric circles, in whose center the radioactive material was located (Generally cobalt-60) capable of emitting gamma rays. The disposition implied that the successive circles received radiation dose that could vary significantly. The closest plants ended up burned by radiation and many nearby developed lethal problems such as tumors. The rest of the plants would receive more moderate doses that would introduce small mutations in their DNA. These mutations could be harmful or beneficial: the technique could Accelerate the natural process Of genetic modification, the selection, natural or human, would make the rest. The origin of this practice is found in the first years of the nuclear era, in the 1950s. Behind this initiative could find an association called The Atomic Gardening Societydedicated to promoting this striking practice. In An article Posted in 1962 the magazine Naturethis agrarian society was defined as “a scientific, educational and non -profit body, which carries out research in plants reproduction using radiative and chemically treated seeds and plants.” The different members of the association could exchange through this different seeds and the organization also served to record the different genetic variations introduced into the plants. The Atomic Gardening Society He also published his own magazine in which members could share their experiences and knowledge. We pointed out before the objective of this practice was to improve the qualities of plants and their fruits, make the most productive and resistant crops and their most nutritious or tasty crops. However behind this practice there was something else: marketing. The 50s was the era of initiative Atoms for peacein whose bosom the atomic gardens were born. This initiative intended to show that the energy responsible for devastation in Hiroshima and Nagasaki could also be used for economic improvement, in this case, agricultural improvement. Atomic horticulture in Spain Atomic horticulture was not an exclusive idea of ​​great nuclear powers such as the United States or the Soviet Union but also various countries from Europe to Japan developed their own gardens. Spain also had Your own atomic garden. The so -called Atomic Jarín of Alcalá is what remains of the Spanish tante in this nuclear agriculture, the then called El Encín Gamma Radiation Field. The origin of this experiment, which did not use Cobalt-60 but Cesio-137is in 1959, when Spain began to leave its isolationist period and could receive this radioactive isotope from US nuclear power plants for the exotic objective of building its own atomic garden not far from the capital. Today atomic horticulture is history. As we pointed at the beginning, today we had less quirky techniques to introduce mutations into plants. The transgenic foods, despite all the controversy they generate, have been accompanying us for decades. In fact, the development of the “scissors” of CRISPR genetic edition has given a new push to the genetic edition of organisms. This tool allows a control never seen before, notably facilitating The work of those looking for Improve the quality, quantity or resistance of crops. Atomic horticulture is history, but their results still endure. They do it in the form of variants of fruits, vegetables and even ornamental plants whose origin is in one of the most unique agricultural practices in the history of humanity.

Huawei has created the most complex photographic system in the industry. The pure 80 ultra is the reflection of an unstoppable huawei

by

Huawei has just presented its new pure family 80, smartphones that not only stand out for the engineering exercise that this generation has made, but because it is the main representatives of the technological point is the company in front of the rest of the world. Four models: Huawei pure 80, pure 80 pro, pure 80 pro+ and pure 80 ultra. The pure 80 ultra It is a national muscle exercise and A clear message to the rest of the world. A telephone that comes to show that Huawei, despite the limitations imposed by the United States, is in one of its best moments at the innovation level. Technical Card of Pura 80 Ultra Huawei Huawei pure 80 ultra Dimensions and weight 163 x 76.1 x 8.3 mm 233.5 g SCREEN 6.8 -inch OLED 2848 x 1276 pixels Ltpo 120 Hz, PWM 1440 Hz 300 Hz tactile sampling 3000 Nits Pico Brillo Kunlun Glass 2 PROCESSOR Without specifying (Kirin 9020) RAM 512 /1 TB STORAGE 16 GB BATTERY 5,700mah 100W by cable 80W wireless Reversible wireless 20 Rear cameras 50 MP, F/1.6-4.0, 1 inch, OIS 50 MP, F/2.4, 83mm, Zoom 3.7x Sensor Shift OIS 50 MP, F/2.4, 212mm, Zoom 9.4x Shit OIS Sensor (There is only one sensor for the two teleobjectives) 40 MP, F/2.2, 13mm, Ultra great angle Laser AF Front camera 13 MP, F2.0 Operating system Harmonyos 5.1 Connectivity Double -band wifi Bluetooth 5.2 NFC (China) USB c PRICE From 1,217 euros to change Look well this camera, because you are going to hallucinate with its operation. The summary. The Pura 80 Ultra Huawei is a muscle exhibition. Starting from what corresponds to any high range, we find a 6.8 -inch screen, an LTPO type oleed with 3,000 nits peak shine. Memory can be configured with up to 1 TB of internal storage and 16 GB of RAM, and the battery is 5,700mAh with fast charging of 100W. Slightly curved front. Huawei has not mentioned the chip, but it has not been long to know that both this model and the pro+ assemble the same Kirin 9020 that we saw in the Huawei Mate 70 Pro. It is a processor made of architecture of seven Nanometers of SMIC, the Chinese giant in semiconductors that is helping Huawei materialize his dream of achieving a device made only with national components. The groundbreaking. Reviewed the basic specs, Huawei wanted to be dominant in a section in which they have never lowered the rhythm: the camera. This telephone incorporates an inch sensor, which promises the greatest dynamic range of the industry. But here the star is not the main sensor, it is the teleobjective. With a size of 1.28 inches, the teleobjective of the pure 80 ultra is the largest in the industry. Such is its size, which Huawei has inclined its position so that the height of the camera module does not shoot. And, not happy with achieving this technical implementation, they have released something unique in mobile photography: get two teleobjectives with a single sensor. Two distances, a sensor. This 50 megapixel sensor allows 3.7 and 9.7 increases optical zoom. And no, it is not thanks to the digital zoom. The company has patented a simply spectacular system. What you see in the upper image is the sensor (the inclined, pink) to which light reflected through a prism is reaching. That prism moves through the module mechanically (using a gear system that literally displace it by the surface). According to the position of the prism and the mirror to which the light will reflect, the phone will shoot with a teleobjective or other. They are also the first teleobgers stabilized by SHIFT sensor (sensor stabilization), instead of OIS. A technology historically reserved for the main sensor, which has a traditional optical stabilizer. The results that Huawei has shown are impressive, especially in low light. Zoom 3.7x. This is, by far, the most advanced teleobjective system in the world. A solution to the problem of modular size and a photographic muscle exhibition as we had not seen to date. Let’s talk about the. Chatgpt and Google surprised the world with their ways with real -time processing and video of everything that saw the camera of our mobile. A function as powerful as terrifying that brings us closer to a future similar to that of ‘Her’. Huawei’s AI can already see by the user and interact in real time with its context. Huawei, with the help of Deepseek And Pangu has achieved an identical result. The pure 80 ultra, through its Xiaoyi voice assistant, can analyze in real time everything we show with the camera. It is an exclusive function of Harmonyos and Hongmeng AI, and another sample of where China is now in the AI ​​race. Huawei literally calls it like this: anti-mirones protection. There are curious functions also based on AI. If the device detects that there is someone looking at our screen, the system will let us know so we can realize. With the launch of the pure huawei, Huawei announced collaboration with Depseek to improve its AI. They have not taken to show with this pure 80 ultra of what they are capable in this first stage. National hardware? After launch From Huawei Matebook Fold, they jumped weeks later relative leaks of the milestone that Huawei is achieving with his own hardware. A good part of the chips of this PC were made with Huawei. It is soon to know the interior of the pure huawei 80 ultra, but the key that surrounds this device is what is capable of making Huawei in the highest range of mobile phones. All probability, there will be surprises in your disassembly. Doubts mainly fall on Ryyb camera sensors, since It is rumored that the company has almost lists its approaches. The price. The Pura 80 Ultra Huawei will be sold in China from 9,999 yuan, 1,217 euros to change. It accumulates in its launch more than 200,000 reservations and … Read more

We have a problem with plastic recycling. Japanese scientists have created one who self -destructs in the sea

by

In summer, more than once we have been scared thinking that a plastic was, in reality, a jellyfish. Far from that triviality, a major problem is hidden. According to the United Nations Environment Program (UNEP)more than eleven million metric tons of plastics end up in the oceans every year. Although a new wave of change is brewing in Japan with plastics that get rid of. Short. A group of researchers from the Riken Center for the science of emerging matter and the University of Tokyo has developed a plastic capable of degrading completely in salt water in a matter of hours, As explained in a press release. The demonstration. The team has shown how a small piece of the new material disappeared in a container with marine water after being agitated for about an hour. Although no marketing plan has yet been detailed, the project leader, Takuzo Aida, He has affirmed Reuters That research has aroused great interest, even from the packaging sector. A deep problem. The urgency of this advance is framed in an increasingly serious environmental crisis. According to UNEPplastic pollution could be tripled by 2040, reaching up to 37 million metric tons annual in the oceans. Therefore, the investigation has not wanted to limit itself in the visible, but also in the microplastics that are infiltrated in all the ecosystems of the planet. Long journey. According to They have explained Scientists, this new material is the result of more than thirty years of research in supramolecular polymers. Unlike traditional plastics, which remain united by very resistant covalent bonds, they use weakest and most reversible links. This allows the material to maintain its resistance, but decompose rapidly under the appropriate conditions. The point. To achieve this, they needed a “passage key” that was in salt. Technically, They have detailed Reuters that the combination of hexametafostato sodium (a food additive) and ions of Guanidinio (employees in fertilizers) formed saline bridges that provided stability to the material. However, by immersing themselves in salt water, these bridges are broken and, within a few hours, there is no trace of the plastic. The resulting material is resistant, colorless, igniphed and not toxic. It can even waterproof with a hydrophobic coating, without losing your ability to break down if your surface is scratched or drilled. Although it has its limitations. As The project manager has indicated to Reuterswhen decomposing, plastic releases nitrogen and phosphorus, elements that can be reused by microorganisms or plants. However, if they accumulate in a uncontrolled way, they could alter coastal ecosystems, favoring phenomena such as algae flowers. To avoid this, the researchers propose a controlled recycling system in seawater treatment plants, which would allow to recover the materials and reuse them in new supramolecular plastics. Biodegradable, but enough? The novelty of Japanese plastic contrasts with the limitations of other called biodegradable plastics. According to the researchersmaterials such as polylactic acid (PL), although they degrade on land under industrial conditions, persist in the ocean, where they fail to break down and end up forming microplastics. Other more recent alternatives, such as certain recyclable plastics developed in Europe, offer greater durability and recyclabilitybut they still face similar challenges: slow degradation in the marine environment and dependence on specific management systems. One step further. That moment could be closer than it seems. Meanwhile, jellyfish will continue to be jellyfish. But at least, the plastic that imitates them could begin to disappear.

When Ibáñez lost Mortadelo’s rights in 1985 he created a new magazine where they would have another name: ‘I and I’ ‘

by

In 67 years of life, Mortadelo and Filemón have lived a relatively placid existence: always under the authorship of its creator, Francisco Ibáñez, and published by the successive publishers who have held their rights. Sure? Well, not quite. Basic and officially, this is so, but in his career we find numerous potholes. Secret cartoonists who replaced Ibáñez without their permission, fighting for the rights of the characters, long seasons without charging … or the six criticism weeks in which the author published his creatures avoiding mentioning them. This is the story of ‘I and me’. The schism started in 1985, when Francisco Ibáñez left Bruguera, the editorial veteran who had been publishing the characters since 1958. The reason was the author’s discontent with the treatment of the editorial: he lived under asphyxiating work pressure, having to produce about forty weekly pages of Mortadelo For headers who multiplied: ‘Mortadelo’, ‘Super Mortadelo’, ‘Mortadelo Gigante’, ‘Special Mortadelo’ … It was in 1973 when the publishing house, without its permission and in need of more volume of stories, began to resort to cartoonists that they will imitate their stories to generate more stories of mortadelos. That purpose set in a study led by cartoonist Blas Sanchís, who came to have more than fifteen cartoonists and screenwriters under the name of Bruguera Equ. His work was not exactly small: They generated as many pages as the legitimate creator of the characters and even complete albums as ‘The Treasury’ or ‘The infallible growing’ comes. Bruguera Equipo developed a “Calcar Machine”, a template system that allowed copying the teacher’s comics. Although the general consensus is that, except frankly inspired copies, such as Casanyes, the stories of Bruguera Eiers lacked the grace of the originals. And most importantly: Ibáñez did not see a hard for any of it. This uncomfortable situation resulted in a legal battle, with Bruguera refusing to recognize intellectual property to Ibáñez and finally, Ibáñez marching halfing the story ‘the security preb’. The cartoonist’s march was not made public until 1986, When the press published the rupture And Bruguera had been editing things like ‘El Cochecito Leré’, a story that had previously been created for the German market (where the characters were as popular as in Spain), and performed entirely by the Bruguera Equ. In any case, Bruguera would not give much more war: he closed in 1986. Grijalbo arrives and stays with the pair of bald Bruguera’s cartoonists were very disputed in that situation, and Ibáñez was not the only discontent, because they had been charging intermittently since 1982. With Bruguera in free fall, he and others like Raf (‘Sir Tim O k Grijalbo to get the magazine ‘Guai!’, A clear imitation of the Bruguera style, but where they could not use their classic characters. Ibáñez created in this new magazine ‘Chicha, Tato and Clodoveo’, which would repeat some plot schemes of ‘Mortadelo and Filemón’, already ‘7, Rebolling Street’, a clear double page imitation of ’13, Rue del Percebe ‘. But the situation would take a new turn when in 1987 Law 22/1987 on intellectual property and copyright, which would recognize the property of the characters for the benefit of the cartoonist. Ibáñez had a free way to use them and would do it in a new Grijalbo magazine expressly created for it in 1987 … but that legally could not use the name of the characters in the header, because with that use they belonged to Bruguera. The solution was to call the magazine ‘I and I’, in what would be a very strange commercial decision: Mortadelo appeared as a claim (and Thus had been publicized In the magazine ‘Guai!’), But not mentioned on the cover. Ibáñez would not get away from the ghost of the apocryphal cartoonists, because their ‘chicha, tato and clodoveo’ would continue in their original head, but made by other artists without accrediting. Only six numbers later, the magazine closes, it is not clear why: the most possible reason is that Grupo Z (new owner of the rights of Bruguera, which would exploit from its seal editions b) pressed to Grijalbo. Six months later, in December, Ibáñez for editions B, which in all this time had been publishing since 1986 Mortadelo stories illustrated by apocryphal cartoonists, such as ‘The Transmutant Ray’. They are black times for the characters: Although Ibáñez’s return at number 49 of the new ‘Mortadelo’ in February 1988 occurs in style, with the incredible cover of the character disguised as Tejero, the stories give an important downturn. Until 1991 we are in a Transition stage that, as it was later known (at that time it was an absolutely silenced issue), They would continue to perform anonymous equipment. Many of them would be drawn for what would be their apocryphal par excellence, Juan Manuel MuñozIbáñez trusted man who It would help you for decades to finish the character’s albums, until the death of the cartoonist. The volume of work that Editions B demanded was so high that Ibáñez was forced to record the scripts in cassettes to save time. As of 1991, however, Ibáñez will regain the complete authorship of the characters. The editor of edition B of that time, Julia Galán, demanded an improvement of the quality of ‘Mortadelo and Filemón’ to rescue them from the creative crisis they were going through, and the result were, since 1996 and with the disappearance of the magazines, long stories that would have been filled with references to the presenta certain levish continuity in characters and scenarios from one album to another and more cool arguments. Thus would remain until the death of Ibáñez in 2023, with Mortadelo and Filemón converted, despite these potholes, in absolute history of Spanish humor.
