Say the type of trip you want and the artificial intelligence will find your destination and itinerary

Let’s explain to you how to plan routes with Claudeusing a new function like this artificial intelligence. The function will Claude It will start asking you questions to find out the type of route you want to take, and then it will offer you a destination and an itinerary with places to visit. This function is intended for when you are not clear about a destinationbut you do know the type of trip or route you want to plan. You will end up having a Google Maps module with places to visit, schedules and a complete itinerary. Plan your trip with Claude The first thing you have to do is write the initial prompt to launch this feature. It’s a pretty generic prompt where you don’t specify anything, because we’re going to have Claude ask us all the questions. The prompt would be the following: Help me plan a full day trip! Ask me questions to get more details about what I want to do. When you write the prompt, Claude three initial questions so that you can specify the characteristics of the trip you have in mind. First, it will ask you how many people are going and where you are leaving from. You will be able to choose between several answers. Then he will ask you What kind of excursion do you fancy?. Here you can choose answers that talk about nature, coastal, cultural or gastronomic excursions. You also have the field Another thing to specify a specific one. Lastly, it will also ask you how much effort do you want to make on your trip. Here you can choose between making little effort, walking a little or having long or sports routes chosen for you. Once you answer everything, Claude will ask you additional questions based on the data that I have given them so far. For example, since in my configuration I put that I am from Castellón, it asks me how far I am willing to drive to go to the destination. He also asks me about my preferences. When configuring my trip I have stated that I want it to be a cultural one, so analyzing what I have close to me He will ask me about cultural styles or eras that I would like to visit. And that’s it. After the three initial questions and additional questions that he asks you, Claude will plan an excursion and will show you a Google Maps module with the route. You will have a button to open the route in Maps, and you will also be able to see that it has been organized for you by planning the times at which you can visit each site, and the route to choose.

His Porsche 911 discovered it on a 2,000 kilometer trip and the police also discovered it

In the late 70s and early 80s, Bill Gates was not only known for his talent in programming and for having founded one of the most thriving technology companies, but also for his love for speed and supercars. Especially those of porsche. The problem with driving a supercar is that it is relatively easy to exceed the speed limits. Thanks to this ease of stepping on the accelerator more than necessary, Gates has a strange record: three speeding tickets in a single trip. According what was published by Luxury Launchestwo of them placed by the same police officer who was following him. Release stress at full speed. When Microsoft was still in its infancy in Albuquerque, New Mexico, Gates used to drive his Porsche at high speed through the desert after long days of programming. This habit caused him more than one problem with the local police and ended with the now famous photograph of his mugshot in 1977. Although, in his defense, it should be said that this arrest was due to skipping a stop sign and driving without a license to Albuquerque, not for speeding. That reckless behavior behind the wheel caused him all kinds of problems, and ended the patience of everyone around him. As Walter Isaacson said in an interview for Time, Paul Allen, his founding partner at Microsoft, had to bail him out of jail after one of his midnight escapades to drive at full speed on the roads of the New Mexico desert. 2,000 kilometers go a long way. In 1979, Microsoft made the decision to move from Albuquerque to Seattle to establish its headquarters there, so its founders also packed their bags back north. However, Gates decided that, instead of sending his Porsche 911 in a truckit would be a good idea to drive it to Seattle himself. As the millionaire has acknowledged in several interviews, on that trip to Seattle he accumulated up to three “very serious fines for speeding”, two of them from the same agent who, after detecting Gates’ speeding, began to follow him. In this section, the millionaire committed another reckless act, which led to a double fine. “It was a very long trip,” said the millionaire. Gates and his obsession with Porsches. Since started driving – and he could afford it – Gates has been especially attracted to supercars made by Porsche. In 1987, Gates ordered a Porsche 959then considered one of the most advanced supercars in the world, thanks to its biturbo engine, all-wheel drive and pioneering electronics. The car was capable of reaching 317 km/h and only 337 units were manufactured, something that made it a true collector’s item. However, when the car arrived in the United States, it was detained at customs in Seattle because the brand had not passed the safety tests for the US for that imported model. For 13 years, Gates paid a fee of $28 a day to keep the car guarded at the port, which added up to more than $133,000 just to keep it stored until it was passed a law that allowed him to circulate legally. Your Ferrari “Sand Buggy”. In addition to a large collection of Porsches, cars from Ferrari, Jaguar and Mercedes-Benz have also paraded through Gates’ garage. According to what he said Walter Isaacson in his interview with Gates, the most popular of them was a Ferrari 348 that earned the nickname “sand buggy” after Gates got into the sand with it and started drifting with it. In addition to different collector units and 911 variantscurrently the millionaire regularly drives a porsche taycana sports car fully electric with which Gates appears in some shots in his miniseries ‘And now what? The future according to Bill Gates‘.

During World War II, Australia sent an ornitorrinco to Churchill. Died on the trip and 82 years later we know why

In 1943, a camouflaged ship departed from Australia to England with an ultrasecreta load to the peculiar: An ornithorrinco called Winston, a diplomatic gift for British Prime Minister Winston Churchill. The creature died during the trip and for 82 years a German submarine was blamed. Some researchers They have discovered What really happened. Winston was not loaded by the Germans. Australian students They have resolved the enigma After examining the archives of the naturalist David Fleay, who captured the animal. The boat’s temperature records reveal that Winston died due to thermal stress by crossing Ecuador, not because of enemy attacks. Temperatures exceeded 27 degrees Celsius for a week, well above the survival limit of the species. Why Australia gave an ornitorrinco. In the middle of World War II, Australia felt abandoned by Great Britain while Japan approached the Pacific. Australian Foreign Minister Herbert Evatt knew that Churchill collected exotic animals and thought that an ornitorrinco, a creature that many considered at the time a taxdermic hoax, could tip the balance in favor of Canberra military support requests. The trip that should never have done. Winston was captured near Melbourne and embarked on a specially designed container, with burrows lined with hay, Australian stream water and 50,000 worms for the 45 -day path. David Fleay, the naturalist in charge, opposed from the beginning: no ornitorrinco had ever survived such a long trip and exports of the species were prohibited. The cause of “official” death. When Winston appeared dead in his tank, Churchill wrote to the Australian prime minister expressing his “pain” for loss. To avoid a diplomatic incident, death was hidden for years. When it finally came to light, the version that the Ornitorrinco had died from the stress of the attacks of the German submarines, a story that Fleay himself supported publicly. The clues of the logbook. Harrison Croft, a doctoral student at Monash University, agreed to files in Canberra and London that included interviews with the caretaker of the Ornitorrinco. “They made a kind of autopsy and he was very concrete: there was no explosion, everything was calm on board,” Croft explains. In parallel, an Australian museum team Digitized the collection Fleay staff, where they found the daily temperature record that revealed the real cause of death. Ship’s logbook. Image: Australia Museum Ornitorrincos Based Diplomacy. Australia tried again in 1947, sending three ornithorrincos to the New York Bronx Zoo. Betty died soon after arriving, but Penelope and Cecil managed to arrive healthy and saved to the country, even becoming authentic celebrities and a hook for the press at that time. The media expected them to be reproduced, but after a four -day “romance”, the thing did not go as expected. Image: Australia Museum The way to reproduce from an ornitorrinco is fascinating, since they are monoturem mammals, which means that, despite being mammals, they put eggs. In fact, they are one of the only five species of mammals that do this (the other four belong to species of Equidas). So when they saw that Penelope did not end up reproducing, it became a fun scandal at the time. In 1957 he disappeared mysteriously and Cecil died the next day of “broken heart”, according to the press. Since then, Australia strictly prohibited the export of ornitorrincos. Only two have left the country In 70 years, both to the San Diego Zoo in 2019.

A lysergic trip to the byd fever in China

When I wanted to realize, two women were making selfies by my side. They were looking for, without dissimulation, the best way to frame me next to them. They did not, of course, for my beauty. I don’t believe it, at least. It is much more likely that the last thing to be expected to meet when they accepted byd’s invitation to attend the ceremony that the unit celebrated 1,000,000 Dolphin Surf It was seeing a group of European journalists. We were there to know some of the Latest Innovations of the Company But also cover what is his first great milestone. On his way to climb to be “one of the three major car manufacturers in the next five years”, Byd has put on the street a million units of the units of the Byd Seagull. Or, as we know him in Europe, Byd Dolphin Surf. A figure that they have reached in just 27 months and for which they had a great party prepared. Accompany me on this trip to the heart of the byd fever in China. A sometimes lysergic trip, sometimes incomprehensible and, of course, totally different from what we can expect from a European manufacturer. Lost among the metadata of a mobile to know who Byd had promised us that we would know the Xi’an factory. Considered the largest vehicle production plant in the world (according to the brand maturely 13.3 million square meters), the immensity seemed even greater with all the lines stopped. “On Sunday, you don’t work,” explain the workers of the company itself. Although they also pointed out that everything depends on demand and market requirements. It seems that in China, as in any other part of the world, the market sends. In fact, according to Reutersit seems that the company is going through a momentary break, raising the foot of the accelerator. Be that as it may, there I was in the middle of an empty plant that only filled the screams of a good handful of fans of the brand, attending how my face was immortalized in the memory of a folding phone of Huawei and a second mobile from Xiaomi. Someday, I imagine, the two women will no longer wear those two white shirts with bright letters in which it reads Super Seagull and they will ask with the same strangeness as who I was that kid of the screen. Clients invited by byd to celebrate the 1,000,000 unit of the Dolphin Surf Behind us, a handful of Byd Dolphin Surf on the light line, where the body defects are checked, and a sign in which it was indicated that we were before unit 1,000,000. A little over two years ago, this car or existed. Now, A group of enthusiasts They are the cornerstone of a party that would have its peak in a convention hall in the city of Xi’an. There we would arrive later, aboard a dolphin surf with which We tried your eye from Godthe most advanced autonomous driving system that, yes, for this car is limited to highways. What we found when we got off was a real party of brand enthusiasts. The entrance to the enclosure was guarded by more than a dozen personalized cars. They were vehicles from the clients who had wanted to contribute their grain of sand. Had returned to two thousand tunneros from Spain. But in Chinese slope. Byd Dolphin Surf of a brand client Byd Dolphin Surf from another client That is, in format Cute or eminently Friki. With some Byd Seagull/Dolphin Surf painted like a racing car, with its vinyl, its multicolored paint and a great presence of black and red. Toyo wheels with the registration painted on the side of them. A good spoiler in the back. But also a pink and blue unit in pastel tones. Easily questionable combination. Like the unit with dozens of Labubus tied in the trunk of the car with a chain in the purest skin shelter style of El Corte Inglés. Later, among the screams of the attendees claiming theirs would find out what this doll is It has also become fashionable in Spain. Swirling among cars, customers and brand fans. And influencers, of course. Influencers showing the event in the purest style of Chinese streamers that a couple of years ago They gathered on the bass of a bridge. Surprise, in fact, how easy it is to see a streamer on the street telling live God knows what. A crazy celebration That same was wondering that night. We had an hour and fifteen minutes of gala for when I made the decision to leave the living room for a moment to go to the bathroom. I had been delaying the inevitable for a while and after 75 minutes of talk in which the maximum responsible for the vehicle told their experience I understood that there was still a good time sitting there. I decided After the second musical issue. It was then, with the appearance of a group tributed to The Who that seemed taken from a parody of El Terrat, when I left the room. It was the second time that those singers, all of them from a Byd Dolphin Surf, appeared on the scene to encourage attendees. We were, of course, in the intermediate. Those who did not rest were the two influencers that, live in the immensity of the Hall of the Convention Center, showed on the screen what seemed like a kind of Teleth of Byd accessories. I don’t know how many would be following the event live, but surely one of them was inside. I checked it on my return. While attendees stirred colored sticks in a dark lounge singing and Dancing to the rhythm of seventies hymns and eighties of, Mies neighboring seats looked moved the screens of their mobile phones.

airlines are not profitable on a 1,300 km trip

Usain Bolt bending seven rivals, letting go in the last 15 meters and, despite everything, running faster of what no human had done until then. Is there any better metaphor to explain the launch of Chinese high speed trains? That year, while Usain Bolt flew inside the nestthe stadium in which the Beijing Olympic GamesChina took the opportunity to show the world that it was already a modern country. And part of that modernity passed, of course, through high -speed lines that came into operation that same year. 17 years later, China is the First country in the world With more kilometers on high -speed roads. Like Bolt in 2008, growth has run at such a devilish speed that it has left powers such as France, Japan and, Spain, because We are the second country in the world with more kilometers of high speed. In less than two decades, the impact of Chinese high speed has been very high. The railway framework in a country of the size of China is very important for long displacements. And, for the moment, they are convincing people. So much that their airlines have given an alarm voice: the train is stealing customers. Better by train While Europe is still trying to bet on the train but the low flight prices are still competitive enough to opt for them mostly when it comes to making a long journey, the incorporation of bullet trains in China has completely changed the way of understanding trips in the Asian country. At the end of 2024 They presented their most advanced traincapable of reaching 450 km/h. CR450AF is only the last example of Chinese development. This year it should come into operation on the high -speed roads already built, so its maximum speed will be 350 km/h. However, the intention is to have finished in 2027 the railways that will hold the more than 400 km/h mentioned. Then, travelers will have one more reason to opt for the train on the Beijing-Shangai route, a journey to which according to South China Morning Post 52 million passengers were uploaded last year, for just 8.6 million travelers that the airlines added. This figure served at the service to grow 3.62% in its income, until adding more than 42,000 million yuan (about 5.8 billion dollars). And net earnings increased by 10%, raising to 12.8 billion yuan (near 1.8 billion dollars). Traffic is so intense that 100 trains circulate daily between both cities. To understand why the train has triumphed in front of the plane, you just have to understand its figures. Just over 1,300 kilometers separate Beijing from Shanghai but the current Chinese train is able to reduce that distance to four hours and 18 minutes of journey. In the worst case, adding all the stops, the trip stays in less than eight hours. At the high frequency and reduced time of the journey, we must add that, according to SCMP For many it is essential to stay connected while traveling. While in a plane it is impossible to maintain this digital connection (At least for the moment)on the train it seems to be assured. In fact, if something made us clear to us Beijing Winter Olympic Games The latter was one of the great concerns. They highlight in the environment that the Chinese Air Transport Association defines as “eroded” the competition between both means of transport that are seeing how even the upper classes are opting for the train. China Eastern Airlines and Air China have recently linked forces, with the aim of sealing this passenger leak. Both companies total 55 flights between cities and had one of their most faithful groups in the upper class. However, leaving and arriving from the city center and the punctuality of the train (in addition to connectivity) is attracting more and more customers. Airlines have tried to stop this offering their clients facilities to change flight schedule or even putting limousines to bring them closer to the center of the cities. Airlines warn that if this does not work, they will have no choice but to lower prices but maintaining the line is, less and less viable. On the other side of the railway currency, SCMP It also emphasizes that the success of the line between Beijing and Shanghai is not repeated in much of the country where the interior lines are deficit. Something that as Spaniards already sounds more? Photo | N509FZ In Xataka | China has the “most difficult in the world” railway tunnel: 34 kilometers crossing a hostile mountain

Katy Perry has taken advantage of her trip to space to promote her tour. Going to space is like going to El Hormiguero

The little New Shepard rocket in Blue Origin has taken off this Monday for the eleventh time with six people on board. On this occasion there were six women. Among them, pop superstar Katy Perry, who has taken the opportunity to promote the opening concert of his tour in Mexico. A space flight without men. Blue Origin’s NS-31 mission has been The first space launch without men since 1963when the Soviet Union put the first woman in space into orbit: Valentina Tereshkova. Chosen by Lauren Sanchez, the fiance of Jeff Bezos, to “inspire the coming generations,” five women and Sanchez herself They flew above the line of Kárman (the official border of the space), floating in the capsule for three minutes before falling back to the ground with parachute. In addition to Katy Perry and Lauren Sanchez, among the crew members were Gayle King (co -exposed “CBS Mornings”), Aisha Bowe (former NASA rocket scientist), Amanda Nguyen (researcher in Bioastronautics) and Kerianne Flynn (film producer). Short, but intense. The six women traveled to the launch platform in two Rivian electric trucks, The rival brand of Tesla financed by Amazon and Jeff Bezos. Bezos was driving one of them. They made a brief stop in front of the rocket for some photos and then uploaded to the capsule to take off. The New Shepard rocket ignited its hydrogen and liquid oxygen engine at 13:30 UTC. Two and a half minutes later, it detached from the capsule, which amounted beyond the border of space, Up to 107 kilometers above sea level. Oprah, Kris Jenner or Khloe Kardashian looked up from the public. On the 7:30 minute, the rocket landed on its own. A minute later, the capsule opened the three parachutes to cushion its descent, between shouts of joy of the crew, who touched earth over the 10th minute. The suborbital flight was brief, but intense, judging by the micro open inside the capsule. Promotional moment Katy Perry took advantage of the minutes in the space to sing “What a Wonderful World” and reveal part of the setlist of his new tour, which will begin in Mexico; turning a space launch into promotion, as if it had gone to El Hormiguero. The singer and Gayle King have joined the growing list of celebrities who have flown to the space with Blue Origin. Jesús Calleja was in the previous missionNS-30, as part of a documentary financed by Amazon Prime Video and Mediaset. William Shatner, Captain Kirk in “Star Trek”, also did in 2021 invited by Jeff Bezos, the company’s owner. Laura Shepard (Alan Shepard’s daughter, the first American in space, which gives name to the rocket), Ed Dwight (The black astronaut that never flew) or the YouTuber Coby Cotton (of the Channel Dude Perfect) have also crossed the karm line aboard the New Shepard rocket. Many of them as part of an effort of Blue origin to promote its tourist flights. Meanwhile, in Spacex. Spacex has had a small number of totally private missions. The first It was inspiration4funded by businessman Jared Isaacman, who is one step away from directing NASA. The Missions of the AXIOM company, operated by Spacex, to the International Space Station mix services for space agencies (ESA sends some of its astronauts in this way) with space tourists willing to live a couple of weeks as authentic crew members of the ISS. Polaris Dawn, again funded by Isaacman, made history with The flight to higher altitude from the Apollo missions and The first commercial extravehicular activity of history. More recently, Fram2 launched a Bitcoin tycoonChun Wang, and his friends on the first flight in polar orbit. From Dennis Tito to Katy Perry. As the reusable rockets (and space airplanes such as Virgin Galactic) reduce the cost of launching people into space, more and more millionaires fulfill their dream of seeing the earth from above as did the New Yorker Dennis Tito, The first space touristin 2001. Tito paid $ 20 million to fly to the ISS for eight days aboard a Soyuz Russian ship. His trip opened the door to a handful of extremely rich individuals who followed their steps during the next decade: Mark Shuttleworth (South African, 2002), Gregory Olsen (American, 2005), Anousheh Ansari (Iraní and First Space Tourist, 2006), Charles Simonyi (Hungarian, 2007 and 2009), Richard Garriott (British 2008) and Guy Laliberté (Canadian and founder of the Circo del Sol, in 2009). The price of a seat in the New Shepard rocket is confidential, but It is estimated at just over one million dollars. Little more than a flight in the Richard Branson space aircraft cost Commercial Space Stations are operational.
