The amount of caffeine of the drinks we consume daily, exhibited in this graphic

by

The caffeine It is one of the most consumed substances in the world. HE esteem that about 80% of the world’s population consumes caffeine daily and, although Coffee is an important sourceit is also present in tea, coffee, matte grass, cocoa pods or in Kola’s nut -Coca-Cola noticel-. However, it can also be produced synthetically to add it to soft drinks, energy drinks or supplements. And in this graph prepared by Visual Capitalistwe can see how much caffeine the drinks we constantly consume. The graph. Prepared with data from EFSA (The European Food Security Authority, in Spanish) After surveying To more than 66,500 people from 22 European countries, the graph is quite self -explanatory. In some publications of this type the brand is usually obvious, but the really useful thing about this graph is that, directly, the amount of caffeine in commercial drinks is indicated as Monster, Red Bull either Prime (A brand created by The controversial Logan Paul). It is also useful that both the milligrams of caffeine of drinks and the amount of liquid we consume are offered, since we can calculate more effectively “how many Red Bull I can take to have a safe dose.” A Monster It is what has the most caffeine, but also because the sample is half a liter. Prime, with less quantity (330 ml), is close to the caffeine of a monster with its 140 mg. And it is curious that the drink that gives us wings has on a boat the same amount as a double espresso: 80 mg. Not only caffeine. What happens with energy drinks is that, like EFSA itself detailsthe stimulant they contain is not limited to caffeine. Apart from that compound, they have other ingredients such as bullfighting or D-Gucorone-y-lactona. Bullfighting is an amino acid that participates in the control of cell calcium and cardiac function, associated with the improvement of sports resistance by allowing high efforts for longer, reducing fatigue. The D-Glucurono-Y-Lactona is a metabolite of the glucuronic that helps in the synthesis of vitamin C, and both are safe for their rapid metabolization, although they can have secondary effects such as some digestive discomfort in high consumption. And if caffeine, bullfighting and D-Glucurono-γ-lactone were little, something more harmful must be added to the cocktail: huge amounts of sugar in these energy drinks. Consumption by age. EFSA has created a table that indicates how many mg of caffeine we consume daily depending on our age: age range Daily consumption From 75 years 22-417 mg Between 65 and 75 years 23-362 mg between 18 and 65 years 37-319 mg between 10 and 18 years 0.4-1.4 mg/kg between 3 and 10 years 0.2-2.0 mg/kg between 12 and 36 months 0-2.1 mg/kg Among adults, the coffee It is the most important source of caffeine, representing between 40% and 94% of total daily intake. In Ireland and the United Kingdom, the thing changes, and that main source is tea, representing between 59% and 57% of the intake, respectively. Among teenagers, the main source of caffeine is chocolate (both in bar and cocoa drinks), followed by coffee, tail drinks and tea. And from 10 years down, coffee disappears and chocolate continues to reign, followed by tea and tail drinks. Safe consumption, but with asterisks. One of the issues that continues to worry who seeks to take care is how much caffeine is a lot of caffeine. The 400 mg a day have been taken as the universal measure to say that it is the “safe” amount, but it is something that depends on several factors. For example, unique doses of caffeine of up to 200 mg do not present security problems for the healthy adult population. But if you are a woman and you are pregnant, that safe figure goes down to 200 mg per day, distributed throughout the day. In addition, if unique doses of 100 mg are consumed before going to sleep, the sleep quality pattern can be altered, but it is something that does not happen in all adults. But of course, everything depends on a key term: healthy population, since there are studies that relate caffeine to negative effects on chronic sleep restriction phases and, although it is used as a stimulant in sports, Its effects will be more or less beneficial depending on the sport we practice or the decisions we should make.

The most common and insecure passwords in the world, exhibited in a graphic developer

by

Passwords They are a headacheand so it is just as it should be. We have more and more applications that require a password, something fundamental because in many we have associated payment data, but the Statistics evidence that, as much as there is Key managers And security gaps, we still do not give them the importance they deserve. In fact, every year ‘12345’ remains the most used password. It is not the only password that can be burst in seconds, but that we insist on continuing to use. And this graphic exposes it perfectly. Usual suspects. Prepared by Visual Capitalist With the data of NordPassin the upper graph we have the 25 most common passwords worldwide for 2024. To anyone’s surprise, ‘12345’ is the most popular, used more than three million times (according to the accounts of this service, so it can be many more), but it is accompanied by some consecutive numerical series a little longer, by the classic ‘password’ or by the first row of the keyboard, with more or a shorter length, but always left, but always left, but always left, but always left, with a length right. Passwords such as ‘Dragon’, ‘Monkey’ or ‘Iloveyou’ also appear, or the classic ‘Secret’. There are some that combine numbers and letters that, according to recommendations, give more strength to the key, but are such simple combinations that they do not make a difference in security. Burst in a second. Where do these passwords come from? Precisely, of a 2.5 TB database (which is said soon) that Nordass analyzed because they were credentials exposed in different security gaps. And beyond the number of times these unsafe passwords appear, what attracts attention is the time someone would take to burst them. You don’t have to be hacker to skip those passwords, and NordPass points that 25 can skip in less than a second. Of the most used, you have to go to the 28th place with ‘Target123’ to see that it would take nine seconds to crack it, ‘Tinkle’ would take two minutes and the first “safer” (Note the quotes) would be ‘Zag12WSX’, which would have been more or less and that it came out more than 90,000 times in different data leakers. Curiosity: Do not use Pokemon ‘like 45,776 people,’ Starwars’ as 34,427 or ‘Batman’ as another 24,638 people exposed because they are also bursting in less than a second. Spain and Latam without getting out of the line. Those are the most used worldwide, but something curious, and useful, is that we can filter through countries. If we look at Spain, ‘123456’, ‘123456789’ and 12345678 ‘are the three most used, but’ Spain ‘is the fourth and is somewhat safer. It would barely take that password that appeared 7,349 times in data filtration. ‘Spain’ would also take a couple of minutes and then there are some curious such as ‘Barcelona’ or ‘Alejandro’. Interestingly, if you have ‘Cristina’ as a password, it would take three hours to skip it. In Mexico the popular are identical to those of the rest of the world, but we have more insecure variety such as ‘Pokemon’, ‘Pass’, ‘Alejandro’, ‘America’, ‘Hello’ or ‘Carlos’. In Chile and Colombia, ‘Chile’ and ‘Colombia’ are among the most popular. In general, the list is quite curious, with “safe” passwords such as ‘111222Tianya’ in China or ‘Tkideltki’ in Taiwan, taking the Crackers one day to skip both. And return to recommendations. Six of the ten most used passwords are purely numerical and with extremely predictable patterns. Precisely, the trick to create a good password It is to use numbers, symbols and capital letters and lowercase with at least 12 characters. To do this, we have at our disposal programs that generate and manage these passwordsbut we can also take precautions changing the keys to timeuse Two -step verification methods whenever possible and take the habit of not reusing passwords.

Diffusion in a messaging app. Part of that information would have been disseminated through a telegram channel. In the case of data related to Podemos, it would be access data to its private website. This filtration adds to others that They are already being examined by the National Courtand in which names such as Félix Bolaños or Yolanda Díaz appear. Ongoing research. The aforementioned means indicates that given the nature of the committed material, the central court number 1 of the National Court investigates the case as a possible crime of terrorism.

The airlines that most canceled flights over 2024, exhibited in this graphic

by

You reserve a flight, you make plans and, suddenly, you receive the worst Notification on mobile: Your flight has been canceled. It is not as common as delays or endless queuesbut when it happens, it can ruin a trip in a moment. For aeronautics, 2024 was a complex year due to errors such as Crowdstrike that demonstrated the Fragility of airports around the worldbut also to adverse weather situations and even geopolitical incidents. And in this graphic of Visual Capitalist The 15 airlines with more cancellations are exhibited during 2024: The data. Canceling a flight is not easy, so it is something that companies do not do not be totally necessary. They have to deal with the expenses of the passage (such as claims), but also with the expenses in airports for occupying the terminal, among others. There must be a reason for weight as a climatological issue, concern for security or some technical problem in the ship that pushes the company to make that decision. They can also be administrative errors such as schedules, maintenance delays or lack of personnel. Very located. As can be seen, most airlines are headquarters and operate mainly in the regions of Asia Pacific, the Middle East and Africa. On the list only two European and one American sneak. In addition, although Chinese companies are not those that lead the list, the number of travelers who move and the flight cancellation rate is quite significant. Perspective. Now, the graph must be accompanied by a table in which it clarifies what is the cancellation rate. In it, the total flights of each company and cancellations are exposed to obtain a percentage. First of all, here we leave the table: company Region country Flights cancellation rate Dana Air Middle East and Africa Nigeria 2,396 33.9% Lion Air Asia-Pacific Indonesia 125,550 16.7% Wings Air Asia-Pacific Indonesia 62,176 16.3% Air Austral Middle East and Africa France 7,628 14.9% Chongquing Airlines Asia-Pacific China 57,868 14.8% OPE AIR JET Asia-Pacific Indonesia 89,453 14.7% Air Seychelles Middle East and Africa Seychelles 16,069 10.1% Batik Air Asia-Pacific Indonesia 97,320 9.4% Winair Latin America Netherlands 25,802 6.3% Cape Air North America USA 83,101 6.1% Kenya Airways Middle East and Africa Kenya 46,578 4.9% Ural Airlines Europe Russia 61.021 4.8% Shenzhen Airlines Asia-Pacific China 277,688 4.6% China Air Asia-Pacific China 612.920 4.1% It is what allows to see more clearly the impact of the 813 canceled flights of Dana Air compared to the 2,396 total flights in front of those of a giant as an Chinese Air that “only” canceled 25,359 flights of a total of 612,920. It is still a burial, but it is not such a significant percentage of the total. Specific challenges. Now, what are these cancellations, especially some as striking as those of Dana Air? Two factors come into play here: the specific challenges and those that are common. In the case of the African company, the thing comes from afar. In July 2022, its air transport license was paralyzed by regulators due to financial problems and security concerns. They returned to operations a few months later, but in February 2023, the six aircraft of their fleet were held on land due to problems with maintenance. And, in 2024, a incident On the Lagos track he raised concerns about the security measures of the airline, reasuring the suspension of his licenses. In the case of the Russian Ural Airlines, the cancellations are due to the fact that it was that year in which the European Union He added to the list of sanctions due to the war between Russia and Ukraine. And others more common. Apart from the unforeseen events, sanctions and negligence on the part of the companies, we see that small airlines have many problems to maintain their travel calendar. The funny thing is that there is a simple and understandable explanation for travelers: those that cover Indonesia, for example, must deal with the challenge of operating in archipelagos with more than 17,000 islands in which extreme climatic conditions are frequent. In the case of the Cape Air (American) and Winair (Dutch), the explanation is also logical: they fly to complex areas of the Caribbean. Winair’s case is logical because it has a fleet of only eight planes and flies, above all, between destinations of the Sotavento Islands of the Minors, home of one of the most dangerous airports in the world, the Juliana Princess. By zones. Beyond the cancellations of the airlines that track from Ciriumthe data of the difference between territories with China at the head is interesting, more than one point of difference from the second, which is Latin America: Region Total flights canceled rate Asia-Pacific 12,489,263 315,317 2.52% Latin America 2,898,438 42,407 1.46% North America 9,925,300 135,744 1.37% Europe 8,529,261 90,134 1.06 Middle East and Africa 2,758,152 26,793 0.97% In the end, the data is there and, although there are reasons for flight cancellation that are understandable due to maintaining the passage, when it touches us it is not a dish of good taste.
