Passwords are a gain. Remembering them is an almost impossible mission, creating safe versions makes us entering several special symbols, and to top it off, we see leaks of these data from time to time. Therefore, the different technology companies seek a definitive solution to end them. One of the alternatives that is gaining more popularity is apparently simple and elegant: Enter the email or phone and receive a single -use code. But it is not completely safe. Large companies adopt the ‘Magic Link’. The login without password has been adopted by different companies such as Microsoft. The promise is clear: eliminate friction and risk of reused passwords in different services. However, what seems like an ingenious solution is becoming a security nightmare, a system that, in certain scenarios, can be even worse than the denoted passwords, as the expert Daniel Huang recognizes. And it is not a theoretical threat; It is already actively exploited. Introducing the email is the first step of deception. A priori seems like a simple and harmless system, and as users we are getting used to that If we receive a code you have to use it. But where? This is where a cyber of the intention finds a new reef for attacks of Phishing improperly effective. It all starts receiving an email or a SMS of Phishing Very convincing. It can be an irresistible offer or a security notice that attracts a lot of attention that is accompanied by access to a web page, which is a perfect clone to the original through which they are being passed in the SMS. This is where they ask that the phone or email be introduced, and it only remains to wait for the next step. Behind the screen is where the attacker is located. Where it is not seen, the hacker introduces the email or phone on the legitimate website, which makes the real service Send a six -digit code completely valid to the input tray or the mobile messages section. And here it is where the false website Ask that the verification code that has been received be introduced, taking advantage of the previous times where doing this had happened absolutely nothing. Here the damage is done. The code is received by the attacker who will use it on the Real website, starting session and changing all the login information as email or telephone to seize an account. And defense systems serve as little, since a password manager cannot self -model anything and as the code is legitimate and sent from a real service spam filters They will not jump either. A security problem that has already been exploited. This does not remain alone in theory, but has been put into practice. One of the most notorious examples is Microsoft’s login system for Minecraft accounts, as shown In the company forums either In Reddit threads. Many players point to how they lost access to the account of the morning due to this type of fraud. The employer was always the same: they received an email with some excuse about their Mojang account and following the steps delivered the hint access code in the silver tray. Classic access code or passwords. This is the great decision that must now be made by large companies. And one of the solutions that would guarantee have a safe password is A good password manager. In the event that it is of quality, access credentials are linked to a specific URL, and that is why if an illegitimate website will be accessed, the web address will not coincide and will not be self -realized. The best defense is common sense. With both access systems, 100% security is not achieved. In the past we have seen Very important password leaks, Like hackers They published very extensive files with credentialsthe robbery scams that have been reported either the strategies that are followed To make the robbery of credentials, Even in Chrome. That is why, as security councils, the most important thing is Check web addresses and distrust everything that can get out of the normal.

We believed that the heat wave was over. Aemet warns that, in reality, we still have the worst ahead

by

The heat wave that affects the peninsula is leaving shocking data. Yesterday, three of the weather stations of the State Meteorology Agency (AEMET) collected maximums above the 45º Celsius, with 55 registering more than 42º. Two records of record. On August 11 and 12 they beat, According to Aemettwo temperature records. With an average temperature that touched the 29th in peninsular Spain, this month has seen on August 11 and 12 more than at least 1950. In fact, they are among the warmer days registered in August: only three times the 29th Celsius barrier has been overcome. On August 12, it was also the hottest day than is going 2025. If they are fulfilled The agency’s forecaststhe first twenty of August will be the warmest in peninsular Spain since there are records, exceeding a few tenths the previous registry (of 2003), and for more than one degree the next highest record, last year. From Seville to Badajoz. Yes Let’s go to the most extreme caseswe can find the 45.2º of the weather stations of Seville, Tablada and El Granado (in Huelva), or the 45.5º collected in Badajoz. Another striking fact were the high minimum temperatures: 29.7º in Osuna (Seville), the highest in peninsular Spain (in Gran Canaria there were thermometers that did not fall from the 30). A number that does not want to leave. The answer to the question of “what is happening” has to do with atmospheric stagnation a “synoptic configuration continues quite stationary”, In Aemet’s words. A dorsal anchored on the peninsula That allows the entry of warm and dry air from Africa, as well as the high degree of insolation propitiated by summer and stable skies, are main responsible for a heat wave that is not only being intense, also long. The latest update of Aemet’s forecasts indicate that this exceptional situation will last at least until Monday 18. The “more likely” scenario is that the entrance of a fresh air mass from the Atlantic serves to relieve the situation, but there are still a few days left for us to know greater certainty when and how the end of this heat wave will be given. What can we expect. Meanwhile, what can we expect? After a kind of brief respite today, Aemet foresees A new increase in temperatures tomorrow Thursday, a more marked ascent in Galicia, where the thermometers can exceed 38º. On Friday this ascent will be extended throughout the north, where orange notices are already planned due to an important risk derived from high temperatures.

Humanoid robots impress at first glance. Sony is clear what reality is: they still do not know how to move well

by

Humanoid robots are generating a lot of expectation for their futuristic component. Right now, Boston Dynamics’s new totally electric atlas It moves in almost aliens, and The humanoids of figure They already learn to handle coffee makers and washing machines. The feeling is that the Robots revolution is just around the corner, but in its design they hide a problem that is slowing its true potential. And the solution does not go through adding more calculation power. The ‘silly’ body of robots. A recent study From Sony’s own robotics division, he points out that the root problem that limits his own machines is the “limited number of joints”, which creates a “disparity between their movements and those of the subjects they imitate.” That in this case are humans. As explained by the director of the Mechanical Intelligence Research Group at the London South Bank University, the current approach to the robotic industry is “the first brain.” Incredibly complex software is designed that has to centralized a body that is, in essence, a metal knead and engines connected by slightly flexible joints. An attempt to resemble the human that fails. If we move as we moveS In day to day, it is not for ‘magic’, but because we are an almost perfect machine that has about 360 joints, 206 bones and numerous ligaments. This makes the column flexible or the joints adapt to any movement. But humanoid robots are simple rigid structures that constantly fight against their own weight and inertia. In order not to fall, they need to perform millions of microcorrections per second, also consuming a lot of energy. According to the data, a Tesla Optimus robot to make a simple walk Consume about 500 wattswhile a human being for a more demanding walk Consume 310 watts. The clumsy that they are is increasingly evident. The famous Optimus video folding a shirt It is, in reality, a demonstration of its great physical weakness. A human can fold the shirt almost without looking, using the touch to feel the key and guide their movements. Optimus with his rigid hands depends on his powerful vision and his brain to meticulously plan every tiny movement. The same goes for Atlasthat although it makes spectacular acrobatics, I could not walk safely on a rock covered in moss because the feet cannot feel the surface to adapt to it. {“Videid”: “X83kba5”, “Autoplay”: True, “Title”: “Tesla Bot: This is the humanoid robot that is creating Elon Musk”, “Tag”: “”, “Duration”: “135”} The solution is already explored: mechanical intelligence. This It is a concept that nature perfected millions of years ago and that researchers around the world are beginning to apply in robotics. The idea is simple: design the physical structure of a machine to perform ‘calculations’ and passively adaptations without the need for a central brain or extra sensors. In nature there are many examples of this. For example, the tendons of a hare act as intelligent docks that absorb the impact by landing and release that energy to boost the next stride. The human hand is also able to passively adapt to any object and the yolks of our fingers conform to moisture to achieve the perfect friction level. The investigation is already demonstrating the value of this approach. For example, there are robots with legs inspired by the tendons of a cheey that can run with notable energy efficiency. In Xataka We do not need necessarily humanoid robots. We need machines that do what we can’t even imagine The efforts are put to increase their presence. Companies are clear that humanoid robots are the future. Some like figure They have already created a system to make large -scale robotsor even China is doing exhibition of your best models To make it clear that they have gone from theory to practice, and even They put them on sale. And such is the number of companies that have been launched towards this market, which It costs to differentiate each other. But they already do very common tasks such as Play football or participate in Kickboxing tournaments between robots. And even work for an hour remembering exactly what their hands ‘feel’.

European cars manufacturers promised them happy with the hydrogen battery. Reality has hit them

by

In search by Eliminate fossil fuels From cars, electrification seemed the best option. Have 100% electric, hybrids and plug -in. However, some companies They seemed not to be convinced at all with the electric ones, so they began to boost the development of cars moved by ‘pilas’ of hydrogen. Some are getting off the shipand the last one is a Stellantis that has been closely to the controversy These last years. BMW has another opinion and defends that the hydrogen battery is a strategic alternative for Europe. Against what? Against China. Short. In a brief releaseStellantis (which, remember, is the megacompañía that arises after the Fusion of Fiat, PSA and Chrysler) He confirmed a few weeks ago that he interrupted his hydrogen fuel cell technology development program. They affirm that “the hydrogen market remains a niche segment, without perspectives of economic sustainability in the medium term.” And this affects all the divisions they were developing: Cars. Small vans. Large vans. Next steps. The company comments that the personnel who were doing R&D work related to hydrogen technology will be redirected to other projects and that now what it is to focus on what it sells: hybridization and conventional electric batteries. “We must make clear and responsible decisions to ensure our competitiveness and meet the expectations of our customers, as well as continue with our offensive of electric vehicles and hybrids of both passengers and light commercials,” explains Jean-Philippe Imparato, Chief Operating Operating Officer for Enlarged Europe. Issues. The main argument that underwent the hydrogen strategy, with cars on the street such as the Hyundai Initium or the Mirai de ToyotaIt was the speed of loading. If the electric took some dozens of minutes to achieve a decent autonomy, one of hydrogen was closer to the times of a gasoline/diesel. The problem is that it is not entirely true. Toyota has been one of those who More has driven the hydrogen batteryeven competing with hydrogen -driven cars, such as GR LH2 Racing Concept or the Gr yaris rally2 h2 concept For rallies, but in everyday use, hydrogen looks like everything except practical, away from that more classic “plugging and reproducing” liquid fuel. The reason? GR LH2 Racing himself needs a cryogenic system at the cargo station that maintains hydrogen at -253 degrees Celsius. This implies advanced isolation and advanced manipulation, which makes it very little practical out of a very specialized competitive environment. Among other thingssince the energy density of hydrogen is almost nine times lower than that of gasoline and storage is complex. Without ‘hydrogeneras’ there is no FCEV. Returning to Stellantis, the group was not working with the hydrogen pile for the distant future, but immediately. This year they were going to launch a new range of vans, the Pro one fed by hydrogenthat evidently will not see the light. And although there are still companies that keep some hope for the hydrogen pile, the truth is that without refueling points, technology seems unsustainable. In the United States, Toyota has faced collective demand by Mirai owners who ensure that the brand lied to ensure that reposting would be as simple as in a gasoline. There are practically no load points, with just a thousand open hydrogeneras worldwide for public use. And last year they began to close in Germany because they were not used. BMW and his “hold me the cubata”. Trucks are another song. The numbers are there, With strong consecutive falls in 2023 and 2024 that seem to have punctured, at least for now, that fever for the hydrogen pile for conventional cars. However, the turn comes from BMW. The German company has publicly defended that hydrogen is an opportunity for Europe not to depend so much on the China’s battery industry. And others like Volvo maintain projects Hydrogen for trucks. It has been the CEO who has insisted that Europe must bet on multiple roads and that, in a scenario in which China controls the production of Rare earth Essential to create batteries, and they are also the most manufactured batteries, Europe must have a BM plan, BMW has no car with a hydrogen battery and is working on a SUV that They will launch at some point in 2028. We will see how the market is then. Image | H2 Mobility In Xataka | Nikola had everything to revolutionize the world of hydrogen trucks. Now is on the verge of bankruptcy

GPT-5 is being a tortuous path for OpenAi and points to an uncomfortable reality: the era of the head is over

by

Chatgpt-5 is falling. They have not confirmed it directly, but Sam Altman is already in ‘Hype’ mode and all Rumors They point out that the new model will be presented this month. That GPT-5 It will improve its predecessors is evident. However, as has happened in other industries (Did anyone say smartphones?) The rhythm of the advances is slowing down and everything indicates that GPT-5 will not be the revolution that were previous versions. A discreet jump. They tell it in The Information. Sources close to OpenAI say that, although with improvements, the qualitative leap will not be as great as it was with GPT-3 and GPT-4. This contrasts with Altman’s constant mentions The close thing that is to achieve a general artificial intelligence (AGI), an AI capable of matching the smartest human being in all areas of knowledge. But Chatgpt-5 is far from being AGI and also OpenAi has encountered numerous obstacles along the way. The GPT-5 that was not. At the end of 2024, Openai was working on an internally nicknamed model and that was the candidate to become GPT-5. However, the jump with respect to the previous version was not large enough and finally OpenAi decided to launch it as GPT-4.5, an intermediate version that Nor was it a great improvement With respect to its competition. In Xataka A group of experts in AI attended a party in a mansion. The topic of conversation: what will be when AI ends humanity The one that will be. Openai has continued working on what GPT-5 will be and is about to launch. According to internal sources, the new model improves especially in programming and also does so more efficiently; It is able to produce higher quality code without consuming more computing power. Openai wanted to improve this area, where Anthropic takes a lot of advantage with Claude Code. GPT-5 will also improve its agricultural skills and will be able to follow complex instructions to function without human supervision. In The Information they cite an example about a customer service agent. Giving it a list of rules, GPT-5 can decide when a client must receive a refund, while in previous models they needed to see many complex cases to do it well. Although there will be improvements, The shadow that will not be surprising continues to fly over. Obstacles. The Tensions between Openai and Microsoft They have hindered the advance of the new model. There have been internal friction between both companies, especially for intellectual property issues. Openai accused Microsoft of anti -competitive behaviors. Microsoft accused Openai of not giving access to his most advanced models. They also faced a shortage problem of quality training data and, more recently, the Discompassed talents to the team of Zuckerberg Superintelligence and Google by removing Windsurfhis commitment to the Vibe-Coding. {“Videid”: “X9N4GWC”, “Autoplay”: False, “Title”: “OpenAi has presented chatgpt agent”, “Tag”: “chatgpt”, “duration”: “47”} The challenge. Openai has encountered a problem: that specialized reasoning can be taken to a chat with which we can talk naturally. It is what happened to them with O3, the reasoning model that They presented in April and that will feed GPT-5. Both this model and O1 were trained by reinforced learning, but O3 provided much more processing capacity and obtained surprising results. However, by turning it into a version of chat, that performance fell into chopped and I lost many capabilities. The reasoning model is so powerful that the response time increases a loteven for very simple questions. GPT-5 is expected to be at an intermediate point. Continuism. GPT-5 improvements may be more than enough for OpenAI continues to feed your machinerybut it seems clearer that there is a deceleration of the generative AI. At the end of 2023 Bill Gates already said that I did not believe that GPT-5 would be much better than GPT-4 and that the generative AI was close to its roof. It is an almost natural process and that we have seen with other industries such as smartphones: a lot of innovation and qualitative leaps in the first years, followed by a continuous stage in which the novelties are lower and the sensation is progress, but much slower.

The United States and China seem to compete in ia. The reality is that they play completely different sports

by

Everyone talks about the “career of AI” between China and the United States as if it were a competition where one will win and another will lose. But in reality there is no career because everyone is playing a different sport. The United States invested 100,000 million dollars in AI in the first half of 2025, pursuing AGI as a technological religion. His philosophy is clear: spending billions today to control the future tomorrow. Giant proprietary models, infinite parameters, the search for the Holy Grail of the AGI. China, meanwhile, has not allocated amounts equivalent to its technological sector. Its approach is as pragmatic as Chinese culture itself: to capture market now, monetize in applications later. This divergence does not arise from abstract philosophies, but three concrete structural forces: Chips scarcity. The OCTOBER US SANCTIONS 2022 They cut Chinese access to the most powerful NVIDIA chips. The paradoxical result: China was forced to innovate in efficiency. Deepseek He managed to match the performance of GPT-4 spending eighteen times less money. Technological restriction forced an economic advantage that the United States, with all its hardware, cannot easily replicate. Capital scarcity. The Chinese risk capital collapsed after the regulations of 2022. Chinese the startups collect funds only after demonstrating product working and real metric uses. In this context, opening the source code becomes the smartest strategy: free marketing, viral adoption and developer ecosystem without acquisition cost. BAICHUAN AI AND ZHIPU AI They achieved financing from Alibaba and Tencent precisely after publishing their open models and demonstrating traction. The concentration of applications. The average Chinese user uses less than ten apps per month, almost all channeled through Wechat or Alipay. The American is around thirty. This structural difference completely changes the penetration strategy. In China, who conquered those few points of mass distribution conquers the entire market. In the United States, you have to fight in dozens of different fronts. That is why it makes sense that Chinese companies open their models: they need adoption speed in those bottlenecks, do not own defenses. The most revealing case is how Wechat chose Deepseek Above Yuanbao, Tencent’s own. The decision exemplifies well Chinese pragmatic mentality: the functional product triumphs over corporatism. Yuanbao was his own, but Deepseek was better. Wechat needed quality already, not in two years. Twenty Chinese car manufacturers and more than one hundred hospitals have made similar decisions, integrating Deepseek into their systems. Each integration expands the ecosystem and increases change costs. Behind the Chinese strategy there is also an emotional component that should not be underestimated. After decades being labeled Copycats, Opening the source code has become a way of demonstrating real innovative capacity. Publishing the weights of a model is equivalent to saying: “Here is our work, examine it, improve it if they can.” It is national pride turned into business strategy. The United States continues to build the most powerful AI in the Universe. China is already selling functional to half the planet. Sam Altman talks about the AGI As a civilizational destination, Chinese executives apply the proverb “interests cannot be eaten” and seek immediate monetization. Both can win their respective sports, but it would be absurd to ask who is winning the World Cup when one plays football and the other to basketball. The interesting question It is not who will win the race, but what will happen when in five years One has built the perfect AGI and the other controls the AI infrastructure that uses half the planet.

We thought we were facing a “historical” oil harvest. Farmers now foresee a reality bath

by

Olive oil is going through convulsive times. The drought lived some crops back put many crops against the strings and fired the prices of this cornerstone of our kitchen. Last year the arrival of the rains allowed some normalization, without moving from some modest results. And now, uncertainty does not disappear. Like the last, “in the best case.” The Olivar sector has issued a statement to lower expectations Regarding the following oil harvest. They did it after a meeting of members of the union of small farmers and ranchers (UPA) in which representatives of the olive grove of all the autonomous communities were able to discuss the situation of this harvest. Farmers estimate that oil production will give us between 1.2 and 1.4 million tons of the product. According to Indicates the UPAthese figures would imply a harvest similar to the last “at best.” According to Data from the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Foodlast year there were 855,577 tons of olive oil, which would have to add 112,973 tons of olive pomace oil and 407,400 tons of table olive. According to The most recent estimates From the Ministry for this year, the expected production for this year would be at 1,415 million tons of pomace oil, plus 126,000 tons of olive pomace oil and 533.012 tons of table olive. Different communities, different impacts. In the eye of this hurricane are the Andalusian producers. “The current situation in the main autonomous producer community, Andalusia, leads us to think that the euphoria that reigned among the great market operators about a historical harvest is collapsing,” They point in a press release From the UPA. According to the estimates of the organization, the Andalusian harvest could give between 950,000 and 1,150,000 tons, while the Castilian-Manchega would be around 125,000 tons and in Extremadura the production would be about 80,000 tons. The rest of CC.AA. would contribute around 12,000 tons to this year’s harvest. Heat, pests and productive capacity. The data seem to validate the fears that A few weeks ago He highlighted the sector. As indicated then, there were several factors that invited to reduce optimism regarding the coming harvest. The first of them, the meteorology: the premature arrival of heat at the end of May implied a problem for the olive grove in full flowering. Meteorological conditions have affected different olive groves differently, but intense and advanced summer could be a determining factor in this year’s harvest. To the meteorology we must add the appearance of certain pests, such as prays (Prays Oleae), also the so -called olive moth; or that of milkweed (Euphyllura Olivina). To this must be added the olive grove, the fact that the plant tends to not be able to produce in full performance for two consecutive years. Waiting for September. It is still soon to know reliably the evolution of the harvest since There is still one of the key points that the olive groves throughout the year. The first of these stages occurs in spring and is the flowering of the olive tree, which usually occurs between April and May; The second, which we still have ahead, is the maturation of the fruit. To know how the olive grove this stage, we still have to wait until September. For now we do not know what the meteorology will hold for a month seen, although The predictions Aemet does not invite optimism. Medium-term predictions indicate a warmer and more dry August than normal, while quarterly forecasts also indicate a trimester August-October by pulling warm and dry. There will be so much to wait to see the evolution of the crop. In Xataka | More and more giants get into the Andalusian field and in the olive oil industry. The last: Pepsico Image | Royber99

In 2011 Japan promised herself not to bet on nuclear energy. Until he ran into reality

by

In April 2023 the Japanese government approved a new legislation in nuclear energy that allows to extend the operation of nuclear plants beyond the current limit, which It is established in 60 years. In practice this simply means that if a nuclear plant can operate safely beyond those six decades, the regulation allows you to do so. In this new context the Kashiwazaki-Kariwa plant has ahead A promising future. And it has it because in December 2023 the Japanese nuclear organism, the NRA (Nuclear regulation authority), he raised the veto he imposed on this installation in March 2011, shortly after the accident of Fukushima Daiichi’s nuclear power plant. If we stick to the installed power this plant housed in the town of Niigata, northwest of Tokyo (Japan), it is The largest nuclear power plant on the planet. It is managed by the Tepco company (Tokyo Electric Power Company), which is the third largest electricity company on the planet, and incorporates seven boiling water reactors that are able to jointly deliver more than 8,200 MWE. Security is the most important thing, and after what happened in Fukushima, the NRA decided to withdraw the operation license until Tepco could implement in this installation the new security measures derived from what you learned in 2011. Japan is contemplating nuclear energy with very different eyes The Japanese government is determined to get Japan measured from you to you with the main powers of The semiconductor industry. And of course it is not an unattainable ambition. In fact, some of the companies with the greatest specific weight in the industry of lithography equipmentlike Tokyo Electron, Canon or Nikon, they are Japanese. “We are working with our clients to develop technologies that teach four generations in the future.” This Declaration of Nobuto DoiVice President of Tokyo Electron, is a declaration of intentions. Japan’s strategy does not only require reinforcing its presence in the integrated circuit industry; It also bets on tuning a large number of data centers for artificial intelligence (AI). In fact, Jensen Huang, the general director of Nvidia, has confirmed that your company will put about in Japan a network of specialized data centers in AI. In addition, Huang has anticipated that this infrastructure will deploy from the hand of Japanese companies. All this sounds very good, but it has a high cost in energy terms and the Japanese government has not overlooked it. In 2050 Japan will need to have increased its electricity generation capacity between 35 and 50% In fact, its current electrical infrastructure would be unable to serve semiconductor factories and data centers for AI that will arrive in the future. The Japanese administration has recognized that in 2050 it will need to have increased its electricity generation capacity between 35 and 50%. It is not negligible, of course. In addition, your plan also has to face the decarbonization of your energy system to which you have committed. Today Japan’s fossil fuel supply depends largely on the Middle East, which led to the approval of a law that promotes investment in decarbonization by a total of a total of some some 962,000 million dollars. The Japanese government has confirmed that its strategy to solve the energy needs that it will have within two decades requires betting on the latest photovoltaic cells that They incorporate Perovskitasby floating wind turbines that are installed in the sea, and also for nuclear energy. In fact, during the next few years many of the nuclear power plants that were deactivated after Fukushima will return to operation, and, in addition, Japan will build new nuclear power plants equipped with fourth generation reactors. The project of this closest type in time is led by the Kansa Electric Power company because plan to resume studies They precede the construction of a new nuclear reactor in its Mihama plant, housed in Fukui prefecture, west of Tokyo. If this project will be consolidated as the first nuclear reactor that is built in Japan after Fukushima disaster in 2011.

China is selling more cars than ever. There are those who believe that, in reality, they are using their concessionaires as warehouses

by

Is the swollen electric car market? This is what some experts begin to wonder when the latest information that comes from the Asian country is attended. Vehicle automation seem to be triggered and now it is the concessionaires themselves who give the alarm. Excess offer and price wars are putting the strings to the concessionaires. An alarm. The Chamber of Commerce of China’s car dealerships has expressed concern about the massive arrival of vehicles to their network and require manufacturers to stop sending them vehicles because they are having problems selling them. The information brings it Reuters Those who echo the statement of this association that has given the alarm before a practice, that of automatricular vehicles, which seems to be overflowing the distributors. They run the risk of ending them. The fear of this association is that the current moment of the Chinese car takes to its own dealers ahead. In their statement they ask manufacturers to point to reasonable sales (and productive) figures and stop using their spaces for storing cars. They assure that accumulating both stock with automatrications is further favoring a price war that drown their margins or forces them to sell at losses and, therefore, is putting a multitude of businesses at risk in this part of the chain. What is happening? The voices that suggest that the Chinese market is being filled with automatriculated vehicles that are then Malvender are not new. Wei Jianjun, president of Great Wall Motor, assured in an interview with Sina Finance that there were between 3,000 and 4,000 dealers accumulating an excessive stock of vehicles. Jianjun came to qualify the “Evergrande del Autos” Chinese real estate bubble. In fact, in Reuters They assured weeks ago that the government itself called a meeting to car manufacturers to study the situation. Among the greats indicated were Byd and Dongfeng Motors. A tactic “to the European”. This way of acting from automatricular new vehicles, loading the network and then selling them as semi -new or Km 0 cars is not be baffled in Europe. In fact, it is a usual tactic of manufacturers to ensure a minimum number of sales of their vehicles, forcing dealers to buy a minimum number of cars that then have to sell on their own. These tactics are usually applied when The year endsmakeup the numbers a little, when a new regulation arrives and prevents selling cars by emission limits or lack of security equipment (as the recent European obligations with the ADAS). The face b. What worries Chinese concessionaires is that all these units that are entering the semi -new market do not manage to sell or need enormous discounts to give them exit. It is the same that happened in the United States where a concessionaire practically gave the Fiat 500 electric Because he had been forced to buy units that there was no way to get at a reasonable price in the market. In China, fear is founded because price wars are even more aggressive, with a very competitive market, with many brands that are pressing to lower prices. To this we must add a rhythm of product releases and their development that They quickly leave obsolete those already in the networkhindering its sale even more. To this is added that China lives a problem of internal consumption. By culture, the Chinese client is reluctant to spend a lot of money. Despite promoting a higher expensethe Chinese average client It is still reluctant to the big purchases OA a rapid rhythm of product replacement, which is making it difficult to give out these products.

Between the heat and the effervescent idea of ​​the “bikini operation” – which charges strength with the arrival of fashions on social networks, Like the obsession with flat belly– Some people see in the fruit a kind of dietary lifeguard. Refreshing, quick to prepare and with a light reputation, it seems the ideal option for dinner without adding calories. In fact, publications like Vogue They have pointed out that this practice has become popular as a detox strategy or to lose weight, while Men’s Health He has pointed out that those who seek to control their caloric intake usually resort to fruit at night. But, like almost everything in nutrition, things are not as simple as they seem. An easy solution. The fruit is healthy, nobody doubts. It is a food that provides vitamins, water, fiber and antioxidant compounds. Eating only fruit for dinner is not a dangerous practice by itself, but it is not a magical solution either. In a report for Telvaseveral nutritionists have warned that many fruits have a high glycemic index (such as very mature banana, grapes or chaqui). This means that they can raise blood sugar quickly, something that is not convenient if you are going to sleep later without moving a muscle. In addition, the point is that fruit has no healthy proteins or fats, which generates less satiety and can cause hunger the next day. This situation can cause a cycle of excess for food anxiety, such as have pointed out in Vogue. And what can be done with this heat? Nutritionist Jerlyn Jones has pointed out in Heathline that the fruit is Perfectly compatible with a healthy dinner, provided that it is not the only thing on the plate. Combine it with proteins (such as natural yogurt, cooked egg or white fish) and healthy fats (avocado, nuts, olive oil …) helps stabilize blood sugar levels and feel more satiated. For his part, dietitian Rocío Práxedes has insisted on an interview for Infosalud that the fruit does not fat at night: the relevant is not the time, but the daily caloric total and the balance of the diet. However, remember that excessive consumption of fruit can displace other essential nutrients, especially if dinner becomes regularly into a bowl of melon and little else. If you are determined by the fruit … Some fruits are more suitable than others for dinner. The low glycemic index – as apple, pear, kiwi or red fruits – are good allies. On the other hand, others such as mango, mature pineapple or watermelon raise glycemia faster, something that does not interest just before sleeping. As have pointed out in the voice of Galiciayou have to be careful with the juices and the dehydrated fruit. Although they seem healthy, when fiber is eliminated, its effect on blood sugar is faster and less satiating. Most recommended. It may sound to Cliché, but the key is in variety and balance. A healthy dinner in summer can be light, yes, but it must be complete. A yogurt with fruits and nuts, a salad with fresh cheese and fruits of the forest, or a cold cream of vegetables with a hard egg and a piece of fruit at the end can be simple, fresh and very healthy options, According to Vogue. Not everything is the fault of the fruit. The fact of late dinner and in large quantities can alter rest and favor Fat storage, since the body does not spend energy while we sleep. The general recommendation of experts: dinner at least three hours before going to sleep, and that dinner does not exceed 20% of the daily caloric daily. And while dinnering fruit may seem like a way to compensate, it is not worth any fruit or any amount. In Men’s HealthNutritionist Tiziana Stallone has pointed out that, in cases of diabetes, insulin resistance or digestive problems such as dysbiosis or Sibo, it is convenient to limit high glucemic index fruits, such as watermelon or grapes, especially at night. Neither myth, nor miracle. No, the fruit does not get fat at night. But it is not an infallible plan to lose weight. Eating well is somewhat more complex than opening the fridge and chopping watermelon with the light of the refrigerator. The fruit is an ally, but not the only one. And taking care of yourself does not suppress food, but to learn to combine them. So this summer, before skipping dinner or limiting it to a peach: it’s not about eating less, but eating better.
