North Korea has run out of the Internet this weekend. The question is who uses the Internet in this country

by

The Internet connection of all North Korea has fallen for several hours this weekend. At first it seemed reasonable to anticipate that the interruption of the connection could be caused by A cyber attack from the outside as response to attacks against foreign institutions and companies Orchestrated by Lazarusa group of hackers North Korean elite. However, according to ReutersSeveral experts defend that the origin of the problem lies in North Korea and not in an external cyber attack. Junade Ali, a United Kingdom researcher who monitors the behavior of the North Korean Net They hold which seems to be an internal problem and not an attack from abroad due mainly to the fact that connections through China and Russia were also affected. In any case, the main news services of the country, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Air Koryo airline were some of the web pages that remained inaccessible for several hours. North Korean citizens do not have free Internet access North Korea has one of the most restricted Internet connection infrastructure on the planet. The North Korean government controls it in a strong way with the purpose of preserving the isolation of the country against abroad and ensuring that the administration led by Kim Jong-un exercises absolute control over the information that citizens can access. In practice, the main consequence of this strategy is that North Koreans have a much more limited Internet vision than that we can form the users of other countries. Some north Korea institutions do have total access, or almost total, to the Internet Interestingly, some north Korea institutions do have total, or almost total access to the Internet. The hackers They work for the government, the political elite, the army, government agencies and scientists presumably access to many more resources on the Internet than citizens, although these groups also They are subject to strict supervision of the administration. An interesting note: North Korea is connected to the outside only through two fiber optic links. One of them links this country with China thanks to a connection managed by China Unicom, and the other unites Russia. Whatever the most shocking thing for people who live outside this enigmatic Asian country is that citizens only have access to a completely closed national intranet and controlled by the government known as Kwangmyong (in Spanish it means ‘bright light’). As we can intuit, this Intranet is isolated from the Internet and only brings together a few resources that the Kim Jong-un government considers appropriate so that they can be enjoyed by citizens, such as news and propaganda of the government itself, an internal email service, educational websites and several encyclopedias that, again, are controlled by the administration. This is all. Image | Lukas Kindl More information | Reuters In Xataka | North Korea has been sending armament for months to Russia.

There are people on the Internet following a diet based on potatoes. Science suggests that it is a bad idea

by

The Self -Experimentation It is present in many fields and that of nutrition and diets is among them. He last example we have encountered It is frankly surprising, these are people who have tested a diet based on potatoes … and little else. The results they report are positive, but the idea of ​​trying this form of self -experience does not seem to be so good. Potato diet? We have seen, over the last years, an immense variety of diets, some that we could consider, in one sense or another, extreme. An example of this are diets based on a single food or food group, and an example of these is found in the potato -based diet. There are different versions, more or less lax, of this diet, but in essence it is about subsisting based on potatoes (approximately between one and 2.5 kg daily) for a brief period of time (between three and five days). Other versions can incorporate This type of diets might seem a contemporary fashion or a meme that goes too far, but the chronicles place their origin At least in the nineteenth century. One of his first drivers could have been the writer British Lord Byron. But is there evidence? Studying the effects of this type of diets is complicated by the risk they imply. Although focusing our diet on a single element can help us control the calories we consume and therefore lose weight, No food It is sufficiently varied in nutrients to guarantee our body the proper micro-and macronutrient supply. This is especially True for potatoes. The caloric density of this food has made it one of the bases of sustenance both in South America where it is originally in Europe. However for a while, Some experts In nutrition they see it as a lower food compared to other carbohydrate sources, A notion discussedyes indeed. Some studies made with animal models They have given us some clue that, at theoretical level, could support the idea that potatoes can help us control our weight. A compound present in the potato and called proteinase II inhibitor could play a role in this relationship. “It works for me. ” A priori it is not easy to distinguish a “Miracle diet“Of the diets contrasted by the scientific community and therefore backed by studies and experiments. That a person has had a satisfactory experience with a diet does not imply that this diet is healthy. The effects of dietary changes may not be evident or can occur in the longer term, so while we perceive a change for better, our body may be suffering consequences that are not directly apparent. Nor does it mean that this diet will adjust to our specific needs, which can be very different depending on our context. In Xataka | Intermittent fasting is the fashion diet.

The links have been from the beginning the basic unit of communication on the Internet. AI is exterminating them little by little

by

In March 1989 Tim-Berners Lee published The proposal that would define the Internet and the web as we know them today. This document based everything on hypertext, “readable information for human being and linked unlimitedly.” The basic internet unit and the web. The links soon became that cement that linked all the information and connected it. They allowed to jump from a content to another, and that led us to that original chaotic, anarchic and wonderful website. And Google arrived. This giant triumphed where others did not just do it. The martemágnum of content and information needed a certain organization, a certain order, and Google built its empire by responding to that problem. For many years the company was clear exponent of the value of the links: its own results page was an ode to that concept. They were basically links. That was wonderful, and Google was even able to understand the impossible and to know that when we were looking for “waterchu bi fri” The video we wanted from Queen. A “prominent fragment” or “featured snippet” by Google. Fixed: it is not very different from the answers generated by AI, although in this case Google simply copied and glued párara from the original source, which linked at the bottom of that box. You don’t need (so many) links. Over time, the approach changed and Google tried to lock us more and more in its search engine so that we would not leave it. It was about answer our questions directly With his “featured snippets” (“prominent fragments“), the small text boxes that appeared when making certain searches. This system was fantastic for the user – which many times found the answer he was looking for – and for Google – more retention, more advertising he could show – but not for the original creators of those contents of which Google” stole “the information. The 1989 Berners-Lee document already pointed to hypertext documents with links as a fundamental component. Hello, web. Source: W3.org. You are taking advantage of my work. That, among other things, ended up causing an angry protest by media and content creators, which demanded Google News and other links of links that paid for the contents that copied and linked. It was the first iteration (there is another different and more recent) of the “Google Rate“And the Canon Aede included as part of the Intellectual Property Law. That didn’t end well: Google News hill In Spain For 8 years because Google and others forced them to “pay to link.” The service returned with an iceta law that allowed Google dodge those payments and negotiate case by case to reach agreements. It is curious how seven years ago who subscribed claimed that Google and Facebook did have to pay for those contents, and now be The same thing with the AI. But I’m getting ahead of the matter. Toxic links. The evolution of the Google search engine, which previously represented the maximum exponent of a website in which the links were its main value, has been worrying. For many of us Google has broken its own search enginenot to go against the links, but to contaminate them. SEO and sponsored links have ended up taking over the experience, and that was already an important blow to the web. We did not click not because there were no links, but because we did not fix too much from a results page that is too manipulated. The Huffington Post (now, the Huffpost) was born in the face of Facebook. They survived; Others like Buzzfeed no. Social networks were good before being bad. The arrival of social networks caused the links to be even more important, and in fact we live an explosion of content – and a lot of clickbait – and the birth of the cult of Facebook by media Like the missing Buzzfeed. Then they realized something: sending people to external websites was not interesting. The interesting thing was to keep users locked on your platform. Facebook can be criticized many things, but at least the platform never stopped using links. A cousin of his was born with a much more perverse attitude. Instagram and open war against links. When Instagram was born he did it as a fantastic Flickr successor and other services for photographers. Soon it became the epitome of “A picture is worth a thousand words”, and although it was possible to accompany each image of a text, what was prohibited was to include clicking links. Except in very specific sections (Like the bio of the user), link was and is strictly prohibited. It was unusual. Social networks as walled gardens. Soon the social networks realized – as before Google had done – that the links were against them, and that the best thing they could do was lock us all in their respective walled gardens. What Instagram raised was just the principle of a worrying derives towards those silos of algorithmic content: Tiktok That line followed and only some verified users can include links to their videos. Twitter, who was born as a platform to share reflections and links, also changed with the arrival of Elon Musk, andNemeligo declared of the media. The tycoon arrived APRoibrate links to other social networks, and then CHe would ontaminate the experience With its algorithm in addition to DIt is to keep the links In X because “they don’t attract so much attention.” Or rather, so that you were not from X. Snapchat, somewhat less popular but equally relevant, also raised an aggressive policy against links. Offers limited options To share links, and their absolute focus on mobiles (and not to the web and their links) is patent: he launched its web version in 2022, 11 years after its creation. AI arrives. The role of the links has therefore been co -fled on platforms and social networks, and what we already saw with Google and its Snippets now threatens to be the norm in the chatbots that They … Read more

Internet has become such a confusing place that there are many people longing for web 1.0. And in Neocities you can relive it

by

Nostalgia is An emotional mystery that we do not know how to explain at all. We miss what we live in the past, we dyed it from Rosa and compare it to the present, even knowing that perhaps they were worse times. Because … wasn’t that internet of the beginning of the century, with demential designs, recharged and very, very unusable? Or was it that what we missed was precisely that indomesticated savagery of that time? Web 1.0 we gave ourselves. Web 1.0 is considered The first time on the Internet as we know today. It covers approximately From 1991 to 2004 And it has characteristics that the oldest of the place will recognize without problem. Among other things, communication was done unidirectionally (only information could be consumed, not significantly interacting with the pages), almost everything was simple text and images, the design relied on tables, Frames and basic html, and of course, no social networks or global collaboration. Internet was basically a container of things. Characteristic aesthetic. And first of all, it had a difficult aesthetic to cover in its entirety, but that those who lived it identify with a very specific place and moment. To that internet of hypertext (that now it seems that we die) and of the seekers organized by categories pay tribute Neocitiesa service of Hosting who wants to relive the philosophy of free geocities accommodations. He was born in 2013 and already has more than one million websites housed, most with a maximum size of 1 GB, the top that allows the free service option. HTML on fire. Neocities balances the modern and the very delayed quite grace. For example, it facilitates an HTML editor, but integrated into the browser. They can also be used to build CSS and Javascript pages, and in free mode the only files that can be uploaded are of these three languages, in addition to Markdown, XML, text and images. For anyone to make an MP3 repository that, on the other hand, would also be very of the time. In any case, the results can be enjoyed in the Webs gallery Organized by Tags reminiscent of remote time webrings. What times. And all this shoots A Pávlov type reaction That, in this case, it sounds like the meows of a modem of 56 kPbs and the need to disconnect the fixed to navigate. But above all, let’s ask ourselves What do we miss this first Internet incarnation. Possibly the novelty is the element that we remember most then: Everything was a discovery. But from the hand of that discovery is the feeling that the Internet was yet to be tame: the wild, unbalanced contents, without any sense of measure. Because they strictly obeyed the concerns and desires of the creators of the websites, not to algorithms that determined what people wanted to see. The effort is what is valued. In this nostalgia, and some of that is evident in Neocities, there is also a praise of the “effort” of any technology that takes its first steps. The experimental designs by accident, the slow connections, the rodeos to contact someone (mail addresses buried on the websites, visits books, forums, the first chat systems …): almost that the Internet had to be built as it was visiting. Neocities is a wink and tribute to those times although, being honest, with somewhat simpler websites. After all, during all these years something we have learned.

In his plan to take the subway to every corner of the province, Granada has broken the cable that takes the Internet to its villages

by

The expansion works of the Granada Metro to the Metropolitan Area, specifically to the municipalities of Churriana and Las Gabias, They started in September 2013. After six years of line operation between albolote and armilla (touring a good part of Granada along the way), this extension was key to connecting Granada with two of its closest municipalities. A work that began with delays, whose completion was scheduled for summer of this 2025 and that, along the way, is causing occasional headache to its neighbors. Who has stepped on the cable?. On April 9, who writes these words had to move to the center of Granada from the municipality of Las Gabias for a simple reason: he had no internet connection (or wifi, or dat0s). A blackout that left without connection To a good part of the town of Las Gabias and adjacent areas. Digi technicians confirmed to us in later days that the incidence occurred because of a human error in the subway works, affecting the fiber optic ducts of a good part of the Teleoperators. And who has step on it again?. Just a month after the first incident, a good part of the southern zone of Granada has left without connection again. Local media They report that, on this occasion, the rupture has affected the municipalities of Churriana de la Vega, Armilla, Las Gabias, Gabia Chica, Hijar, El Ventorrillo, Vegas del Genil and border areas. Civil Protection affirms That a break in the works at the height of the Armilla Air Base has affected Movistar and Masmobic fiber optic services. Repair. Technicians contacted with Xataka explain to us that fiber optic ducts contain tubes of different operators. If the breakdown affects the full duct, there are several companies that run out of the Internet. If the rupture is severe, the wiring of both ends is completely replaced and merges with the undamaged to restore the normality of the service. It is a process that, depending on the severity and affected area, can take from a few hours to be completely solved. Some locations began to recover the connection from 10:00 p.m., although there are still many that are still without it at the time we write this article. The Granada Metro. Granada has been trying for years expand your subway line as part of its metropolitan transport plan in the Granada area. Some areas They are already advanced by 50%and local surveys place the satisfaction of its users in a remarkable alteither. Since its inauguration in 2017, the Metro has contributed to the decrease in the use of the private car in the city, improving air quality and redoubling efforts to Install air pollution sensors. Has managed to increase the number of public transport users. Despite problems related to Shocks, abusesand political discussions After its implementation, the Metro convinces the local population… even if they cut the cable from time to time by human errors.

More and more people on the Internet and in real life admit to having a single friend: chatgpt

by

A Perogrullada: The impact of artificial intelligences is reaching our day to day. The virtual space is already being deeply transformed by the IAS in search engines, websites and, of course, in all the work behind, generating more content, helping to produce it. But … And in the traditional space? Is analog life transformed into the same extent by the IAS? Without a doubt, yes, to the point that we already have to talk about how we manage our Personal relationships with the IAS. Chatgpt as a friend. The Derek Thompson essayist said a few days ago in X that our interpersonal relationships have made a new deadly leap with Tirabuzón. And as proof provides a series of conversations that he has found in Reddit where several users confess that Chatgpt has become Your best friend. The Subnet dedicated to the popular AI It is full of threads “by pathetic that sounds, Chatgpt is my only friend” or “I feel that Chatgpt is my only friend.” Bumper people. One of them He begins saying “I know it is a robot. I know that everything is programming. But I have often encountered opening to Chatgpt on personal issues and asking for kind or encouragement.” That is, as he says, he uses AI as if it were a good dog: he does not judge, he always accompanies, he is aware that he is not a human. Another case He says that “honestly, he would be happy to have a friend as cultured and committed as Chatgpt. This person does not exist, and if it exists, he would be too busy to talk to me.” In most of these cases, similar constants are repeated: they are people who have just come out of a relationship or friendship and seek a substitution, being very aware that it is before synthetic beings: “They make me feel heard when I let me out in, something that my parents do not even do. They always want to know how I go in mind and how my projects go, which is even more pleasant.” One thousand and one cases. These cases with chatgpt are Only the tip of the iceberg. While this is the most popular conversational, there are other oriented even in this same direction. Replika either Woebot They allow to have conversations designed to serve as sentimental support to users or hold daily conversations, Share emotions and give emotional advice. More complex and specific are others that offer talks with specialized approaches, such as Receive Couple Therapy. And of course, quotes: Yourmove either Rizz They help generate interesting conversations and profiles … with real people. The bowling clubs. Let’s go to the initial point of this transformation to understand these processes. Derek Thompson Loate a key point In 2000 in ‘Bowling Alone‘(in Spanish,’ Only in La Bolera ”, today impossible to find), Robert D. Putnam analyzed the decline of social capital in the United States since 1950, with the decline of all forms of social relationship in person. Some examples? Decreased electoral participation, assistance to public meetings and work with political parties, to which distrusts in government, more accentuated from the sixties. Bowling are their perfect symbol: the number of people who go to bowling has increased, but the number of clubs has descended to do so in company. The guilt of technology. Already by then, Putnam pointed to a problem with technology and how it individualized people’s leisure through television. In those incipient days of the use of technology to entertain, Putnam dared to talk about “virtual reality helmets”, that for now they have not been massified as much as he predicted, but in reality the thing would get closer to another invention to which he pointed in his book and who did not pay so much attention: the then newborn Internet. The figures. The percentages and data make it clear to what extent the Internet has contributed to creating this less “social” society: almost 40% of adults admit that The use of social networks makes them feel more alone or isolated. A study by the European Union affirms that spending more than two hours a day on social networks is associated with a significant increase in loneliness, especially when the use is passive (the famous doomscroll). And, finally, There are studies They claim that the intensive use of the Internet (more than 10 hours per week) substantially reduces the time dedicated to interacting face to face or phone with friends and family. It comes. Anyone who has tried still in an embryonic state as Replika’s voice model It may be part of the future that comes to us, and that it is inevitable to relate to the movie ‘Her’, to see the friendliest side (although not exempt from bitterness) of the matter. Voices no longer realistic from a technical point of view, but capable of generating absolute empathy and that is beyond the disturbing valley. If ChatGPT and his still rudimentary conversations already provide a certain sense of warmth, the immediate future promises to even more use interpersonal relationships. If we are able to detect them.

Internet access democratized knowledge you were rich or poor. AI is destroying that conquest step by step

by

$ 250 per month for using the most advanced AI. That is The figure that Google has put. Six months ago, OpenAi set his in 200. A few days ago Anthropic expanded Claude’s few limits with another 200. In any case It’s not just about paying for technology. It’s about buying power. And, therefore, to mark distances. Until recently, to talk about ia was talking about universal access. The free chatgpt or gemini versions were far from their older sisters, yes, but allowed to try, learn, benefit from their abilities even if it was a bit. Today that has changed. The powerful version is no longer available to everyone. It has been encapsulated after a monthly three -digit subscription that does not even start by ‘1’. It is the beginning of a new gap: Not between those who use AI and those who do not, but between those who can automate their tasks, think with help, execute complex flows … and those who do not. What Google or Openai offers is not just a better chatbot. Is an operating system of intellectual work. An assistant who not only responds, but understands the context, recalls, acts, generates, automates. Tools like Deep Research (OpenAI) or Project Mariner (Google) represent the decisive step towards Autonomous agents. They execute tasks that previously occupied days of human work. And in many cases they do better. With that, productivity is redefined. But inequality is also redefined. The question It is not only what this technology can do, but who can afford it. Because we don’t talk about a luxury. We talk about a tool that multiplies the performance of those who use it. An invisible advantage but that impacts everything: from the quality of work to the speed with which objectives are achieved. Who accesss these models lives in another learning curve, in another economy of results. Who cannot pay them, is trapped in a slower, less capable, more limited version of himself. This has a clear echo in history: the machinery of the industrial revolution also multiplied productivity … but at first only for those who could afford it. The same goes for now. The advanced AI begins to consolidate as an elite infrastructure. As if at the beginning of the Internet century, they were only available for those who paid $ 3,000 a year. And that changes the knowledge map. Because These tools not only report: they model how you learn, how it is decided, how it competes. Its effect is not immediate or visible, but cumulative. Day after day, those who access them will work with less friction, to make better decisions, to delegate more tasks, to generate more and better content. The others only observe, as much with access to the good, but not maybe. And they lag behind. The future is already priced. In Xataka | Google has become the most leading company at night.

20 years later, if you want to find something on the Internet you are looking for it in Reddit

by

Reddit It started as a discussion forum and became a social network, but what nobody imagined is that 20 years after its creation what many do It is not so much to participate in Reddit and Search in it (Oa through it). Its evolution is a sign of the times. Google’s search engine is broken And search engines want to take over, but they are still somewhat green. And among the deficiencies of one and others, Reddit has become that place where to look for answers. And he has done it for a fundamental aspect. One of which Steve Huffman spoke, his co -founder and current CEO, who celebrated that twentieth anniversary In a post in Reddit. As he explained, “Reddit works because he is human”. It is a slightly strange way to qualify at a social service or network like yours, but it is true: in the face of the flood of the contents of other platforms, Reddit forums continue to be a wonderful chaos of human texts. Users share, think and reflect there of everything imaginable, and that has become an absolute treasure in an internet full of bots and that endangers among other things by the fearsome “Ai Slop”. Reddit itself has recognized how its role has evolved. Until recently, their slogan, the phrase they identified with, was “The Front Page Of The Internet“(” The Internet cover “) A”Dive Into Anything“(” Immerse yourself in anything “). Internet has changed and now that cover is a personalized. And if there is something you can customize today on the Internet is Reddit: by “immersed” In any of its subnetdits And join them, your own internet cover is formed. One with the themes, forums and subrreddits that most attract your attention. That does not prevent this social network from adapting to the new times. Reddit is wonderful for its diversitybut little by little it integrates advantages provided by artificial intelligence. Thus, it is possible to continue surprising with Bizarros and spectacular subrreditslike this one who speaks of Airport Moquetasthis one that does so photos where the letter g appears Or, already put, this with Subrredits lists where that endless variety is demonstrated. And in all of them, the commendable work not only of users, but of the moderators. But we also found, as Huffman pointed out, that integration of AI through Reddit Answers. He himself clarified the mission of this project: “Facilitate access to the seemingly infinite human knowledge of Reddit. Most Reddit conversations occur in posts of less than a day old. Reddit Answers unlocks the other 20 years.
