Que gran que és el @PepMartiVall
Vam poder entrevistar l'exprimer ministre italià @matteorenzi a la @trobadapirineu. Un polític ambiciós, de centre esquerra, que busca el cos a cos amb Meloni en les seves intervencions al Senat. I que ens va dir que calia estar atents a les eleccions a França, però també a Texas

🥹🙏🏼Hace 10 años Guardiola llegaba a Manchester City, y lo presentaron viajando con un pequeño hincha. La duda era dónde iban a poner todos los trofeos que lograran. Hoy, en la despedida, se volvieron a encontrar.

Not enough people are talking about this. A Florida airport was renamed after Donald Trump. He walked away with the trademark, the licensing rights, and a deal that lets him profit off every piece of merchandise sold there. But the story of how he got it is even worse. County staff told commissioners that rejecting the name change would put state transportation funding at risk. DeSantis has already removed state attorneys and school board members who dared to cross him. That is the reality the Democratic commissioner who cast the deciding vote was living in when she made her choice: hand Donald Trump control of a public airport or watch Florida Republicans strip funding from the very people she was elected to represent. That is absolutely insane. Florida Republicans handed Trump a money machine and called it a naming rights deal, and the people of Palm Beach County never got a say in any of it. theguardian.com/us-news/2026…

Joe Lim estimates that 90 percent of what you see on the internet is advertising in disguise, and he should know. For three years, Lim ran a company called Floodify, which at its peak operated 65,000 dummy social-media accounts used to drum up attention on behalf of paying clients. The point of this kind of marketing is that nobody is supposed to notice it. But lately, the machinery has started to show. In April, Justin Bieber headlined two consecutive weekends at Coachella. Coachella is the biggest stage in pop music save only for the Super Bowl, the kind of event that in theory generates its own attention. And yet on both weekends, a Discord server writer Lane Brown had been monitoring hosted paid campaigns for Bieber’s Coachella performances, offering clippers — people who are hired to turn a song, trailer, interview, stump speech, or whatever into short, social-media-friendly fragments — as much as a dollar per thousand views. “On social media, popular opinion is being formed, measured, and manipulated all at once, and every signal the platforms produce — a trending song, a backlash, a talking point, the feeling that ‘everybody’ is suddenly talking about the same thing — can now be fabricated by unseen actors with hidden agendas,” writes Brown. “Everybody is doing this now,” Lim says. “And if you’re not, you’re behind.” Brown reports on how the same techniques are now being used to fool people on every app they go to in order to find out what other people think, not just in music but across entertainment, politics, consumer products, and celebrity gossip: nymag.visitlink.me/w6Bu9N

No smoking gun, but the preponderance of evidence points to smartphones, not economics, as the culprit for the global drop in fertility: • In the US and UK, births fell first and fastest in areas that got 4G earliest • Birth rates were stable in the US, UK and Australia until 2007; in France and Poland until 2009; in Mexico and Indonesia until 2012; in Ghana, Nigeria and Senegal until 2013-15 Each of these inflection points matches local smartphone adoption (see picture). • The younger the age group, the sharper the drop. • in-person socialising among young adults is dropping. In SK, by 50% in 20 years • Sexual dysfunction is higher among heavy social media user • Effect is largest in culturally traditional societies — Middle East, Latin America, sub-Saharan Africa • Decline holds across countries hit hard by GFC 2008 and those not hit, fast-growing and not growing.

Caída de la natalidad: No es culpa del aborto y los pañuelitos verdes sino del excesivo tiempo en las redes Un interesante articulo del Financial Times recoge mucha evidencia científica que sugiere que la caída de la natalidad en todo el mundo esta en buena medida asociada al uso excesivo de teléfonos y redes sociales que reduce la interacción social en persona e inhibe el desarrollo de vínculos amorosos.

After four years full of challenges and hard work, it's time to move on. I leave with the feeling that the mission is complete. 4 seasons, 3 championships. I will never forget the love I received from the fans from my very first days. Catalonia is my place on earth. Thank you to everyone I met along the way during these beautiful four years. A special thank you to President Laporta for giving me the chance to live the most incredible chapter of my career. Barça is back where it belongs. Visca el Barça. Visca Catalunya 💙❤️ @fcbarcelona

És oportuna aquesta semblança de Maria Aurèlia Capmany, un dels perfils que es troben a faltar en aquests moments. Era una figura aliena a sectarismes. Recordo d'ella un muntatge teatral sobre l'assassinat de Layret. Memorable

I’ve always believed the No.1 application of AI should be to improve human health. That work started with AlphaFold, and now at @IsomorphicLabs with the mission to reimagine drug discovery and one day solve all disease! We are turbocharging that goal with $2.1B in new funding.

Hay una lucecita roja parpadeando en las facultades de Periodismo que avisa del agotamiento del modelo. Porque el futuro del periodismo depende de la calidad humana de quienes lo enseñan y aprenden a ejercerlo. O formamos periodistas con criterio… o correctores del algoritmo🧵
