The Canary Islands gave 24 tons of sand from La Palma volcano to Madrid. Now Madrid doesn’t know what to do with them

by

Madrid has 24 tons of volcanic sand of the palm with which he does not know very well what to do. It sounds strange, but that is the peculiar outcome with which the consular and capital governments have been found after an initiative designed to value the Canarian cultural heritage in the Peninsula. The idea worked, but has ended up leaving that peculiar inheritance: bags and more bags of dark ash that accumulate dust (and controversy) without a clear destination. We explain ourselves. Presuming culture. May 17 was a day to frame in the history of Canarian culture. Or at least in one of its most popular disciplines: The Canarian fighta sport that hurts its roots in the first settlers of the islands. His practice is very popular in the archipelago, but not so much out. Hence, on May 17, as part of the Month of the Canary Islandsthe Government promoted A milestone In the discipline: the first day of official Canarian struggle in Madrid. FIGHTERS AND MUCH (MUCH) ARENA. For the appointment, fighters of the Saladar de Jandía and the Candelaria de Mircatwo key teams of the discipline that were measured in the twentieth day of the DISA Tournament of the Canary Islands. And something else: tons of volcanic sand transported from the palm to cover the pitch. The idea was to give even more epic to the appointment carrying a piece of the Canary Islands (literally) to Madrid and deploying it in the middle of Callao, where the Canarian fighters were measured. A 24 tons “ring”. The idea worked. The photos Shared by the Canarian government (with volcanic sand covering callus) they are fascinating and also show that the appointment attracted a good handful of curious. To host them, even a portable stand with capacity for 200 spectators. The event was also attended by President Fernando Clavijo along with regional positions and representatives of the institutional, sports and social life of the archipelago. In case that was not enough, the Executive took care of the last detail. Any type of volcanic sand was not transported to Madrid. No. The authorities chose ashes from the island of La Palma that were generated during the Tajogaite eruption In 2021. “The youngest of the islands, chosen as a symbol of identity, roots and renewal,” the Canarian government insisted in its community. In total some mobilized some 24 tonsaccording to the institution itself. And what happened to that sand? The fight was held on May 17, Jandía’s Salader won the Candelaria de Mirca in a fierce encounter (12-10), but … and then? What happened to tons of volcanic sand? That is the question that was asked recently eldiario.es, which after consulting with the Madrid City Council reached an amazing conclusion: the bags seemed to have vanished. “Without a trace of the 24 tons”, He titled The newspaper. The news was even more striking because, as confirmed by the regional government, the agreement contemplated that, after the May fight, the 24,000 kilos of ash were ceded to the Madrid City Council so that it could cover with it the fields of beach volleyball. From the Consistory they assured however not to have proof of that initiative. I wasn’t dead … It was not the last chapter of the curious soap opera of the traveling volcanic sand. On Saturday Eldiario.es published again Another revelation About the 24 tons of Tajogaite: the material was not lost by Madrid, but stored in work bags in a Torrelodones industrial ship. The reason? Although the initial idea was to allocate the sand to Madrid Volleyball courts, the authorities of the capital came to the conclusion that it was not a good idea to give it that use. His grains may serve for a Canarian fighting fight, but in the opinion of Madrid technicians they tend to heat up easily, which led the authorities to rule it out for the courts. And what will it be used for? It doesn’t seem to be very clear. At least according to the information handled by eldiario.es, which ensures that the Department of the Environment is looking for an adequate destination for the Canarian gift. The bags are also waiting for the Consistory Ultime for a collaboration agreement to accept the material, which, a priori, will have environmental use. In the authorization of the Cabildo it is noted that the material “lacks commercial value”, although as He put value The Canarian government does have a symbolic value.

Sending an email to a low employee has cost 1,500 euros to a company: it doesn’t matter if you respond or not

by

The Superior Court of Xustiza de Galicia (TSXG) has marked a before and after in the protection of the right to digital disconnection of workers in Spain. For the first time, a company has been convicted of sending electronic jobs to an employee who was on a medical leave. The sentence is considered a pioneer because, although other countries Like France and BelgiumThey have already legislated on digital disconnectionGalician justice has taken another step by sanctioning not only the obligation not to respond, but also the duty of the company of Do not send communications Out of working hours. What happened? According to details the sentencethe affected worker was in a situation of temporary disability due to an “anxiety disorder”, apparently “motivated by the emotional wear that implies the current situation of excess work, realization of overtime continuously and labor responsibility, which has led to the appearance of relational insecurity with respect to their environment.” In that context of medical disabilitythe employee continued to receive electronic emails related to her work during the entire low period. The company recognized the facts, but argued that the emails to the complainant were part of a thread created above and whose content was aimed at other people of the team. In addition, he claimed that they were not asked for “an immediate response.” In Xataka 40,000 euros for a croquette: Mercadona dismissed an employee for eating a croquette and must now compensate him The TSXG got serious with disconnection. In its resolution, the Superior Court dismissed the company’s arguments and was overwhelming in its ruling. The magistrates considered that the company not only breached their duty to refrain from communicating with the worker during his temporary disability, but also attempted against his moral integrity. According to the sentence, the Right to digital disconnection “It demands that communications from the company are not received outside the work time”, and warns that “that right is not fulfilled due to the fact that the working person does not have the duty to respond to the communications received outside the work time more or less immediately.” That is, and here the Importance of this resolutionthat the right to digital disconnection does not only refer to the interpretation of the urgency of the communications received, but “carries with it an obligation by the employer, and of dependent or linked persons, of abstention in the communications of labor order or linked to the provision of services outside the working time.” In Xataka Some employees sued their company for cutting the salary. The supreme has responded that being unpunctual is not a job Vulnerability situation. The TSXG highlights the special importance of the right to digital disconnection when the worker is in a situation of temporary disability by A psychic ailment. In the sentence, the Galician Court emphasizes that emails in these circumstances “uneasy the receiver, and also reifted it and undermined their dignity” and places the worker in a state of permanent availability incompatible with her right to recover without pressures. The right to digital disconnection in Spanish law. The right to digital disconnection is included in article 88 of the Organic Law 3/2018 and reinforced with the arrival of the call Distance Labor Law of 2021. According to the regulations, “all workers and public employees will have the right to digital disconnection in order to guarantee, outside the legal or conventionally established work time, respect for their rest time, permits and vacations, as well as their personal and family intimacy.” This right allows workers not to answer mails, calls, video calls or any other digital communication out of work hours. The law does not differentiate between the size of the workforce or the public or private nature of the company, so the protection is universal for all employees in Spain. With the TSXG ruling, the prohibition is not limited to the fact of “not answering” but its interpretation is expanded to “not receive.” {“Videid”: “X919SE0”, “Autoplay”: False, “Title”: “The AI ​​and the future of our work Silvia Rivela | 100 years, 100 visions Ep.3”, “Tag”: “”, “Duration”: “2630”} Symbolic condemnation, but pioneer. The process reached the TSXG as a result of a previous sentence in which, in addition to the violation of the right to digital disconnection of workers, compensation for violations of the right to honor and physical integrity were requested. In this case, the new resolution revokes these last two concepts because it has not been damaged physically or its honorability has been affected. However, it imposes compensation of 1,500 euros “for damages” for violating the right to digital disconnection because the company “was not guaranteed” of this right and points out that “pretending that it is available at any time of its life, including temporary disability, prevents the free development of personality and hinders the exercise of the field of intimacy of personal life of personal life.” In Xataka | 55,245 euros for eating a sandwich and a beer: Mercadona must compensate an employee for unfair dismissal Image | Unspash (Brian J.

Japan has been a test laboratory for years to encourage birth. And he doesn’t have good news for the world

by

Neither The aid. Nor the facilities for access education. Nor the improvement of working conditions. Not even attempts for Exercise “Casélro” and create new couples. The repeated attempts of the Japanese authorities to reactivate their Merm Birth They are clicking on bone and have not prevented the country from closing 2024 with a bleak demographic panorama. Its fertility rate is minimal, births have fallen below the barrier of 700,000 per year and the number of deaths far exceeds the babies. Thus, the country faces a question that They have been Considering analysts: what can a government really do to encourage birth? Can you avoid collapse by looking for everything to the measures of Economic cut? Birth. 2024 has not been a good year for Japanese demography. His Ministry of Health, Labor and Social Welfare has just confirmed it in A balance Desorator and confirms that, despite all its efforts, the country has not yet found the appropriate key to avoid collapse. Among all their data there are two special worrying and that give an idea of ​​the descending drift that is drawing its birth: the fertility rate and births. Last year the global fertility rate (the number of children that a woman would have if she lived until the end of her fertile life) It stood at 1.15. A bad result twice. Not only is it 0.05 points less than in 2023, but it leaves that indicator in historical minimums. This is the lowest recorded data From at least 1947which further away to Japan from the one known as Replacement ratethe necessary number of children (2,1) to maintain a stable population without taking into account immigration. In Tokyo that indicator It does not arrive Even 1. A fact: 686,000 babies (and down). The other devastating fact for Japanese demography is that of the number of births. In 2024 the Japanese Ministry of Health accounted for 686,000, 5.7% less that in 2023. It is the first time in addition (at least since 1899, when the official registration began) that the number of annual lighting was below the 700,000 barrier. The Japanese authorities already had the birth would cross that psychological red line, but they expected it to do so within several years. The forecasts of the National Institute for Research of the Population contemplated that 2024 be closed with some 755,000 new babies And that the births would not fall below the barrier of 690,000 to a decade and a half, in 2039. The predictions were pessimistic, but they have fallen short: that threshold crossed 15 years earlier than expected. ASAHI remember In fact, the 2024 data has coincided with the worst projection drawn by the body. Losing population. The data of the Ministry of Health show only the photograph of the native population resident in the country, excluding both foreigners born in Japan and Japanese born outside their borders; but reveals a serious problem in the demographic engine of the nation. The reason is simple: more Japanese die than they are born. The 686,061 babies scored in 2024 remain away from the 1.6 million of deaths (1.9% more than in 2023). That translates into a negative balance of 919,237 people, around 70,000 people more than the previous year. To understand what this data supposes in practice, Nikei Slide that equivalent more or less to lose all Kagawa in a matter of 12 years. That hole also adds to those that Japan has been suffering over the last years. After all, it carries almost two decades supporting more death than births, which is reflected in Evolution of its total population. A small ray of light: marriages. Among all these negative data the balance of the Ministry of Health leaves one in positive: the number of marriages. The organism registered 486,0632.2% more than in 2023. They remain at low levels and below half a million, but leave the first increase in two years. And that is very relevant to birth. Although in Spain and other EU countries it is increasingly common That couples have babies without going through the altar, in Japanese society births outside marriage or de facto couples are still rare: Nikei remember which in 2023 represented 2.5% of the total. A matter of state. Japan is not the only nation that dealt with birth problems. Something similar happens to South and China. And like them the Japanese authorities have deployed A wide fan of measures to try to reverse the trend that include from children’s subsidies or measures that facilitate education for initiatives to Promote creation of new couples. “Focusing children related to children and parenting is something that cannot expect or postpone,” warned two years ago! Fumio KishidaJapan’s Prime Minister until last October. The problem worries enough to Tokyo for its executive It would be proposed Raise public aid by son to levels similar to those of Sweden and thus avoid that the nation lost “its ability to operate as a society.” That same year the government announced An ambitious plan to encourage birth to deploying a millmillionaire investment. Can you solve with money? That is the question that leaves the last demographic balance of Japan and that have been raising analysts for a long time, both inside and outside the nation. Are economic -economic policies enough to encourage birth? There are those who indicate that at least these strategies must be accompanied by deeper changes and even A rethinking of certain ideas and attitudes rooted in their culture. In 2023 Tomas Sobotka, deputy director of the Institute of Demography of Vienna, He pointed out some keys that feed the demographic crisis and that go beyond subsidies or married policies. The list includes the delay in the age of motherhood, cultural and social changes that lead to young people choose to remain single and without children, a change in the homes themselves, the greatest presence of women in the labor market and a philosophy of life that prioritizes professional ambitions and leaves little time available for parenting. … Read more

It doesn’t give you infinite options so you don’t even think

Mercadona sells more choosing for you. While chains like Carrefour Abruman with up to 20,000 references, Mercadona triumphs in quota and profitability, among other reasons, thanks to their less than 10,000 carefully selected references. The Valencian chain has turned the selection and reduction of catalog into an advantage: by offering less options, eliminates decision fatigue and increases its margins. Why is it important. Mercadona has achieved A net margin that touches 3.9%well above the rest of his rivals. Applies what we could call “spotify formula” to retail: Select and screen instead of accumulating. That also allows you to get more rotation, more control and more margin. The panoramic. Eroski, Carrefour, Alcampo … bet on the variety. Mercadona bets on the selection. It operates with what we could call an “efficient assortment”, based on their own brands developed with what they call their “Totaler suppliers“ It controls so much what is manufactured, as the “how” is manufactured, such as what finally reaches the linear. Spotify avoids navigating among millions of songs with very specific and refined recommendations. Mercadona filters between thousands of products and chooses by the consumer reducing their options. That translates into less than 10,000 products per store in front of competitors that double that amount. Assorted reduction is a general trend, but Mercadona is the one who has opted the most in the last five years (-45% assorted compared to -31% of Eroski, -20% of Carrefour or -14% of Lidl), according to a Kantar study cited by Interempresas. The context. Psychology supports it. Barry Schwartz showed that having too many options can be an initial hook, but When executing they overwhelm us. Is The choice paradox. Reducing them also reduces friction and decision -making time. Less products, less decision fatigue, more satisfaction. In detail. Where you used to choose between eleven oils or six snacks, now choose between two or three. The client, if he trusts, does not have to compare. Do not spend mental energy. Just buy, and continue. Yes, but. The model also has costs. Mercadona withdraws products quite frequently if they do not fit their expectations. Some would be pleasantly popular on other surfaces, but they are not enough in the Mercadona model. It is something similar, since we talk about technology, to what happened with the iPhone Mini: they had around 5% of the annual sales share of the iPhone, something celebrated for many other manufacturers, but Not for Apple, who discontinued him After two generations. Mercadona has not invented the selection and screening, but it has refined the technique of applying it to the supermarket. Deepen. Choosing for the client can be seen as a paternalistic movement, but Mercadona has made it efficiency. When there is overabundance in the environment, well -designed shortage is power. In a world that usually rewards accumulation, Mercadona wins simplifying.

There are no diesel motorcycles for a very long list of reasons. This American brand doesn’t care about a single of them

by

Motorcycles are not gasoline by whim. They are because diesel engines are unfeasible For the very nature of the behavior of a motorcycle, although there are those who have determined to resurrect a concept that, every time it has tried, has not managed to go beyond the anecdote. Why my motorcycle is gasoline. There is a very long list for motorcycles to bet on gasoline and not by diesel: the first is that they are designed to have a relatively content size and weight that allows them to be driven. Diesel engines are heavier that gasoline engines due to their compression ratio (burn with much more pressure and inevitably need more resistant and heavy materials). They also work in a very low range of revolutions, ideal to minimize consumption, but with much less response for a vehicle born to be agile and sportsto a greater or lesser extent. An industry that seeks to be profitable. They are also more complex to manufacture and maintainan especially important cocktail in an industry that sells much less than that of the car and operates in reduced volumes. In short, the motorcycle industry has focused on gasoline engines Because of its ease to extract power in low displacement, the advantage in weight-power relation, and the finely important performance in a vehicle in which, literally, we have the engine under the legs. Diesel attempts. Attempts to create a diesel motorcycle are over a hundred years old. Already in 1904, Holland created a diesel engine with a single cylinder, 2 hp of power and turned to 700 rpm. It was basically a bicycle with the support of a small engine Since then, there have been multiple attempts to make the diesel motorcycle profitable. The giant Royal Enfield He was one of them, with his 350cc diesel bullet. The conclusion they obtained was clear: “Although the sales of our gasoline motorcycles grow with the market, diesel have not followed the pace. It was a niche product. Now I don’t think we continue with the motorcycle” They are, everything is said. Axiom diesel cycles wants to try again. Matthew Lach, creator of AXIOM DIESEL CYCLEShe continues to believe in the dream of diesel motorcycles, and has materialized his own concept. Your company has been manufacturing custom motorcycles with this type of engines since 2019. Real, for street and perfectly accessible … for anyone who wants to pay them. And it is that the price of one of their custom diesel has a price that is around $ 50,000. There is not a single motorcycle in the generalist market that is around this figure, not even the supercar or The most enviable market trail. What you take. Far from offering a competitive engine in features regarding Its Custom Competitorsthe vision of this company is particular. It offers a three -cylinder engine, a thousand cubic centimeters and … 24cv of power. Exclusivity, an aesthetic achieved and, what noses, a diesel engine, is what this manufacturer offers that, for the moment, only sells in the United States.

Kim Kardashian put him fashionable, an influencer viralized him and science continues to say the same thing: he doesn’t eat placenta

by

All the people who have seen Games of Thrones —Ojo, Mini Spoiler – will remember that mythical scene in which Daenerys Targaryen devours a raw heart before a crowd. For this sequence, they used a heart made of solidified jam that The actress recalled Thus: “I knew bleach and raw pasta. I ate about 28 hearts during the days we shot that scene. Luckily, they gave me a spit because I vomited in him very often.” A brutal scene that, today, has claimed life more or less: a influencer Argentino, Lucas Gago, It has gone viral After publishing a video in which he eats – literally – the placenta of his newborn daughter. This act, recorded after home delivery, generated a wave of reactions in social networks: from astonishment to absolute rejection. Although for many it was simply one more provocation on the Internet, the video revived a debate that mixes biology, personal beliefs, celebrities and pseudoscience. From the viral to the origin. Although Gago’s case is extreme, the idea of ​​eating placenta is not new. In recent years, this practice, known as placentophagyHe has gained notoriety, especially since celebrities like Kim Kardashian They counted publicly that had consumed it encapsulated after giving birth, hoping to avoid postpartum depression. Since then, several public figures They have followed that pathpresenting it as a way of reconnecting with the natural or “reuse” what the body produces. An ancestral ritual? Even if that premise is repeated, the story does not support it. An ethnographic investigation that He has studied To 179 contemporary cultures has not found evidence that eating placenta after childbirth was common. Now, in the animal world the situation is different. A study, Posted in Ecology of Food and Nutritionhas observed that many mammals, such as primates, rodents and carnivores, do usually eat the placenta. According to researchers, this practice can help them reduce pain and activate care instincts towards their young. What do experts say? According to Mayo Clinicthere is no conclusive scientific evidence to prove benefits such as increased energy, improvement in breast milk production or prevention of mood disorders. In recent years, more and more people have begun to consume the placenta in capsules, believing that it is beneficial. However, Cleveland Clinic He has warned about the risks that this implies. In a recent article He explained That the placenta can contain bacteria or toxins accumulated during pregnancy, which could cause infections. Dr. Oluwatatosin Goje, an expert in infectious diseases, explained that consuming it, either raw, cooked Or in capsules, you could reintroduce those harmful agents in the body, representing a risk for both the mother and the baby if she is breastfeeding. Other uses of the placenta. In most hospital deliveries, the placenta is considered biological residue and is ruled out according to health protocols. Only in specific cases and under medical authorization, parents can request to keep it, something that is not always allowed or regulated in all countries. However, there are people who decide to keep it, as is the case of artists and filmmakers who have addressed this organ from a symbolic and performative perspective. For example, chef Eddie Lin made the documentary American Afterbirthin which The use of placentas is investigated In artistic, gastronomic and social contexts, proposing a cultural and provocative approach on the subject. The most recent case is that of the influencer Spanish Violet Mangriñán, who decided to plant a tree Using the placenta of her daughter Gala, in a gesture she considered spiritual and ecological. Trend or danger? What began as a striking gesture for social networks ended up awakening a much broader discussion about the limits between the natural, the symbolic and the safe. Although some public figures have contributed to popularize the idea of ​​consuming the placenta for its supposed benefits, science remains without supporting these practices and, on the other hand, alerts on possible risks. In a time where the intimate becomes viral and alternative, it disguises itself as healthy, it should be remembered that not everything we see on the Internet is a good idea to replicate. And that, although the human body is a biological miracle, not everything that comes out of it must go directly to the plate.

Chatgpt is already the most downloaded app in the world. And it doesn’t even manage to be profitable

by

Analyzing application tops is usually especially boring. Instagram, Tiktok, Facebook and WhatsApp, the crown has always been of a social network. Until March 2025 in which, for the first time since 2013 (the year in which the most downloaded app was Candy Crush Saga), An app of this category occupies the podium. Chatgpt, the most unloaded app in March. The latest Appfigures report Collect three interesting data. Chatgpt was the most unloaded app worldwide with an accumulated of just over 46 million downloads. It is the first time in twelve years that a social network does not occupy the podium, although by the hair. Instagram also is around 46 million downloads, but occupies second place. The dynamics of consumption between iOS and Android. Chatgpt is the most downloaded app with 13 million downloads, above Threads and Capcut. In the case of Android, Instagram is still a leader, followed by Tiktok and with ChatgPT occupying third place with 33 million downloads. It is a good photograph about how the Application consumption dynamics According to operating system, and how perhaps iPhone users are looking for everything they do not find in Siri, something especially vitaminated with the integration of the OpenAI model into Apple’s voice assistant. That Openai has devastated in March is not a coincidence. Chatgpt has been appearing in the most unloaded apps in the main operating systems for months, but understanding its success in March is impossible without talking about Ghibli fever. A fever that managed to make They add five million users … in one hour. Openai’s opening to its image generation model in the free model went viral in just hours, generating saturation on servers which they had to respond with limitations. Sam Altman himself said that “it is very fun to see people love the images in Chatgptbut our GPU are melting. ” The monetization challenge. The OpenAi chatbot presents a paradox: it is one of the most unloaded apps in the world, but its monetization is not consolidated. The operation cost is very highand the consultations to GPT-4 cost millions of dollars to OpenAi every day. Openai itself reports that most users use the free version with GPT 3.5. Here the challenge is important: if the free version is limited too much, there is a risk of cooling demand for chatgpt. But if it is not limited, the server cost will end up being unsustainable. According to last year data, GPT has Something more than 10 million payment subscribersfact that you have to add an additional million for business plans, with a higher rate. It is not enough. Openai is not profitable, and we still know if it will end up. One of the collateral effects of the commercial war points directly to the price for using AI. Muddu Sudhakar, Aisa CEO, warned That if building data centers ends up being more expensive, it will also be to operate artificial intelligence systems. Competition with Google Gemini either does it helptheir AI models are not so expensive and are sweeping their competition in Benchmarks. If we add that not even the GPT Pro subscription, which gives access to Your best models included Sorait is profitable with a price of 200 dollars a month, the scenario is uncertain. According to Altman, GPT’s payment users “use it much more than expected”, flying through the service of the service.

Musk, Gates, Zuckerberg and Altman believe that our mobiles have the days counted. Tim cook doesn’t have it so clear

by

Substitute is sought for the mobile phone. We have been looking for it for years, but it is that smartphones continue to prove to be perfect products in almost all the scenarios. However, several great technological leaders They seem clear that the mobile has an expiration dateand the AI ​​and a potential change in the way we interact with technology have the fault. Elon Musk and Neuralink. The tycoon has been trying to win the AI ​​career for some time With his startup XAI And his Grok model, but also has another startup that will end up being the one that makes the mobile disappear. It is neither more nor less than Neuralinkwhose implants could become an extraordinary option to communicate with technological devices. Bill Gates and the tattoos. The Microsoft co -founder converted to Philanthropist has already advanced in 2022 that one of the potential substitutes (or rather, accessories, at least in this case) of mobiles They are electronic tattoos. He himself ended up investing in a startup called Chaotic Moon —What was acquired by Accenture in 2015 – that combines aesthetics and biotechnology. The orientation of these tattoos is for the health moment, but it could be used for other uses. Mark Zuckerberg and glasses. Much more plausible looks like Meta and Mark Zuckerberg, than with their Ray-Ban Meta connected glasses It proposes an increasingly promising alternative to the mobile. Maybe not for everything, of course, but every time for more things. These devices can win many integers thanks to artificial intelligence, and in fact we saw how their evolution, the Project Orionit does raise a future in which perhaps the mobile is much less relevant. He already said it: His prediction is that In 2030 we will not get so much the pocket smartphone Thanks to connected glasses. Sam Altman and the AI ​​iPhone. Meanwhile, the OpenAi CEO, Sam Altman, also seems to be clear that hardware can end up being the perfect substitute for our mobile devices. We still do not know what type of device is raising, but it has joined the famous Jony Ive who for years was the head of Industrial Design in Apple. Together they have the objective of Create the “AI iPhone”. Tim Cook continues to believe on the mobile. Faced with all of them, Tim Cook believes that mobile phones still have a long way ahead. In the presentation of results of the first fiscal quarter of 2015, the Apple CEO highlighted its optimism about the future of mobiles When saying “I think there is still a lot of innovation in smartphones.” Its pro vision are for example a product that is not raised to be used outdoors, but they seem to have a rival for the finish line in study through the Project Atlas. Hardware with AI has been a failure. The truth is that a year ago the fever of devices with AI seemed to promise a turning point. However both the Humane Ai Pin like him Rabbit R1 They ended up being two great technological fiascos. None met expectations, and today both products are practically missing from the map. The optimism of Musk, Gates, Zuckerberg or Altman is striking, but today the mobile seems to continue having rope for (much) time.

It doesn’t matter if you delete your messages on WhatsApp, Google keeps them the same. The State Attorney General has discovered him for the bad

by

Google and WhatsApp have confirmed to the Supreme Court that they will retain the data of Attorney General Álvaro García Ortiz, according to PUBLICA The country. The prosecutor is being investigated for alleged revelation of secrets By filtering information about an agreement offered by Alberto González Amador’s lawyer, a couple of Isabel Díaz Ayuso, to avoid jail for two fiscal crimes. Politics on the margin, they have opened an interesting debate about true privacy in digital environments. Why is it important. The case brings to light a non-tan-known technological reality: erasing messages or emails from our devices does not mean that they completely disappear from the servers of technology companies, which can be forced to recover them by judicial orders. Between bambalins. Messaging applications and mail services maintain backups and records that survive the local erase. WhatsApp does two types of copies: one on the device itself and one in virtual storage that It is managed through Google. This creates a persistent data network difficult to eliminate completely. The general panoramic. This case exemplifies the complex of the storage architectures used by large technological ones, at the technical and legal level: The data is fragmented and doubled on several servers, in turn in several jurisdictions. The backups They are made automatically and in the background, often without explicit knowledge of the user. Complete data elimination requires concrete actions beyond simple erased in the device. In detail. The technical procedure to recover “deleted” messages implies several layers: Forensic access to local copies through specialized software. Request for metadata records (who sent what and when). Recovery of backups in the cloud that can remain even after the local erase. Analysis of Logs of servers that record the activity of communications. The authorities are looking for very specific data that technological ones retain despite the local deletion by the user. Message content, multimedia files exchanged, communications metadata and activity and connection records. The big question. This case illustrates a reality that many users do not know: the elimination of messages on our devices does not guarantee their definitive disappearance. For the common citizen, this means rethinking what we understand by digital privacy; For professionals in sensitive positions, it implies assuming that any electronic communication could be recovered in a future judicial process, regardless of whether or not it was deleted. Will our communicative habits change when we assume that “erased” may not really be?
