Aunque parezca muy espectacular, mucho cuidado cuando veáis esta representación del movimiento del sistema solar por la galaxia porque no es correcta.
Quitando los problemas del orden de los planetas y las distancias entre ellos, hay que tener en cuenta que el plano de la eclíptica NO es perpendicular al movimiento del Sol como se muestra en el vídeo. Fijaos en esta imagen.
El ángulo entre el plano de la eclíptica y el de la galaxia es de unos 60º. Es decir, como veis en esta imagen, hay ocasiones en las que los planetas están "más a la izquierda" que el Sol. Es un poco difícil de visualizar.
This shows you the kind of books that this guy reads and how he reads books. If you read a lot of business, or self-help, or personal improvement books for information, then yes, an AI model does render this kind of reading obsolete.
But a part of reading significant texts is that the ideas in them cannot be reduced to information and its application. So, in reading a significant text you learn to enter into a dialogical relationship with the text.
And the insights that result from that dialogue, as well as learning how to have that kind of a dialogical relationship -- AI cannot do this for you.

So I have been using the OnePlus 15 for over a week now.
My initial impressions using the device, a thread 🧵
Design and build
OnePlus has changed the design language with OnePlus 13s and OnePlus 15 continues the same design with minimalist camera deco, looks better than circular design imo. Build quality is top notch, with aluminium frame and back glass with ceramic coating.
Display:
OnePlus 15 has 1.5k BOE X3 display with 165Hz refresh rate. Bezels are just non existent and it's the best display for consuming media. Outdoor brightness is also good on this one. One thing that I noticed it doesn't have Pro color mode under display settings.
Ahora que todo el mundo habla de la 'gran obra' de Gehry en Bilbao (el pobre se ha muerto), recomiendo algunas obras relacionadas con el denominado 'Efecto Guggenheim', del que es parcialmente responsable.
Mini hilo🧵👇
1.- 'El efecto Guggenheim. Del espacio basura al ornamento', de Iñaki Esteban. Un poco entre la historia de la transformación, a nivel político principalmente, y una cierta crítica a la espectacularización de la obra.
2.- 'Más allá del Guggenheim Bilbao: una era de artísticos museos con efecto urbano', de Jesús Pedro, Natalia Juan y Javier Gómez. Una crítica mucho más feroz a los efectos del Guggenheim, a su intento de replica y a la banalidad de las exposciones que contiene.
Just 1 minute of vigorous exercise is nearly 10 times more effective for diabetes prevention than moderate activity
For cardiovascular mortality, that same vigorous minute provides the protection of nearly 8 minutes of moderate activity
And for all-cause mortality, 1 vigorous minute equates to 4 minutes of moderate exercise
Recent data makes it undeniable
When it comes to exercise...
Intensity is king

This painting is famous the world over, but did you know it depicts the Hospitaller Knight Mathew of Clermont?
When the Muslims poured over the walls of Acre in 1291 he refused to flee and fought until he ‘was covered on all sides and glistening with blood!’
[Thread]🧵
The glory of those mightiest of Christian warriors who stormed Jerusalem in AD 1099 had long since faded and the power of the Kingdom of Jerusalem was shattered long before 1291 when the Muslims gathered outside Acre, the last stronghold of Christendom in the Holy Land.
The truces were over, the Muslims were coming, and no crusade was on its way this time.
The Mamluk Sultan called up troops from Syria and Egypt. The Muslims arrived on the 6th of April and began undermining the walls.
The Hospitallers and Templars sent troops to defend Acre led by Mathew de Clermont and Geoffroi de Vendac. The Hospitallers led by Mathew and their grandmaster Jean de Villiers were responsible for defending the important Gate of St. Anthony which they guarded in alternating shifts with the English knights.
Everyone's sharing ChatGPT prompts for content and coding.
Nobody's talking about using it for actual productivity frameworks.
I've been feeding it systems from Eisenhower, Cal Newport, David Allen, Tim Ferriss.
Here are 5 systems with mega prompts that changed how I work:
The Eisenhower Matrix Interpreter
(Stolen from Dwight Eisenhower)
Prompt: "Here's everything on my plate: [dump your entire list]. Categorize using the Eisenhower Matrix: Urgent-Important, Important-Not Urgent, Urgent-Not Important, Neither. Tell me what to do today, schedule this week, delegate/automate, and delete entirely. Be ruthless about the delete category."
ChatGPT isn't emotionally attached to your busy work. It'll tell you that reorganizing your files can wait forever.
The ruthlessness is the feature.
The Deep Work Session Designer
(Stolen from Cal Newport)
Prompt: "I have [X hours] for deep work on [project]. Design a session plan: pre-work setup (5 min), main focus blocks with specific outcomes, strategic break timing, shutdown ritual. Include what to do if I get stuck mid-session. Optimize for cognitive endurance."
Example: "I have 3 hours for my quarterly strategy deck. Design the session with outcomes per block, break timing, and stuck-point protocols."
You're not just blocking time. You're engineering the session for success.
The "what to do if stuck" part has saved me from spiraling dozens of times.
Ukraine’s sea drones have pushed Russia’s Black Sea fleet into hiding.
Now Kyiv is preparing more complex, AI-driven strikes for next year, says the commander of Group 13 — special maritime unit of Ukraine’s Defence Intellegence an interview with ABC. 1/
Group 13 runs the Magura sea drones that hit multiple Russian ships. The V5 is a smaller ramming drone; the larger V7 is a weapons platform.
Both are steered remotely from suitcase-sized consoles with joysticks and safety switches. 2/
Russian warships now barely operate. They sail roughly 40 km from port, fire missiles and rush back to shelter.
Moscow pays to keep a fleet at sea that, in practice, cannot operate at sea. 3/

1. Warm Her Up Properly With F0replay
The biggest difference between male and female arousal is speed. A man can go from zero to ready almost instantly. A woman cannot. Her body takes time because her arousal system is built on gradual escalation. Blood flow must increase to her sensitive areas, her muscles need time to relax, her breathing needs to deepen, and her mind needs time to shift into a fully intimate state.
When you rush, she cannot enjoy anything. When you take your time, her body becomes ten times more sensitive, responsive, and hungry for your touch.
Start with deep kissing. Start slow. Keep your lips soft at first, then deepen the kiss as her breathing changes. Move from her lips to her neck, her ears, her jawline, and her collarbone. Each kiss should feel soft and sensual. The more you kiss her, the wetter she becomes.
Use teasing touches. Her body has a lot of nerve endings that activate before you even touch the main areas. Slide your hands along her hips, inner thighs, stomach, ribcage, shoulders, and lower back. Touch lightly first, then gradually firmer as her body relaxes. Avoid the most sensitive areas at the beginning because anticipation is what multiplies her pleasure. The longer you delay touching the places she wants, the stronger her arousal climbs.
Add verbal f0replay. Women respond emotionally to tone, confidence, and intention. Tell her how good she feels. Tell her how much you want her. Whisper what you plan to do to her. Speak slowly and deeply. The mind is the doorway to her body, and your voice is one of the strongest tools you have.
The man who masters f0replay becomes unforgettable because he activates her entire body and her entire mind.
@RichMcHugh exposed Gateway Community Services, a health contractor accused of defrauding Maine’s Medicaid program under director Abdullahi Ali.
And what he revealed will infuriate taxpayers.
MCHUGH: “The more we dig into this story, the crazier it actually gets.”
“We’re learning now more about the man who founded and was the executive director of Gateway Community Services here in Maine.”
“At the same time last year, he was running for president of Jubaland, a section of Somalia. His name is Abdullahi Ali.”
“And in an interview with Kenyan media, he openly discussed contributing money back to Somalia and paramilitary forces.”
Ali admitted in the interview that funds were being sent from Maine to Somalia to support armed groups:
“When I was away and abroad, the financial contributions I was sending back were being used to support the forces for buying bullets, ammunition and food.”
McHugh then spoke with Maine Republican Senator Matt Harrington, who is calling for a full investigation into the fraud scheme under Democrat Governor Janet Mills.
HARRINGTON: “To add insult to injury, you know that the founder of Gateway Community Services has openly said that he has funneled money into Somali elections, into paramilitary groups.”
“That’s just an absolute slap in the face to every Maine taxpayer that these funds that could be used to help Maine people, Maine veterans, Maine senior citizens, Maine families who are struggling…are being funneled to Somalia directly.”
McHugh also spoke with Chris Bernardini, the whistleblower who first raised the alarm on Gateway Community Services.
BERNARDINI: “I learned that he was running for president of Jubaland, which is like a small country inside of Somalia.”
“And that he had admitted to funding the militia groups over there…in Somalia.”
“That’s part of their thing that they do. Every president has a militia that they have to fund in order to run for president.”
Abdullahi Ali addressed the allegations last week on X:
“I make no apologies for building a successful business in Maine, working hard to earn a living earning my PhD, giving back to my Maine community, and running for office in Jubaland. I am proud to contribute my hard-earned $ to support my people back home.”
McHugh reports that he reached out to Ali multiple times and even went to Gateway’s headquarters, but staff immediately told him “no comment.”
“Now we’ve reached out to Governor Janet Mills, multiple times. We’ve also reached out to the head of Health and Human Services here. We’ve also reached out to the three Democratic members of the House here…nobody will speak to us.”
@AlexSchaumburg Deutschland wurde in 4 Besatzungszonen eingeteilt.

‼️USA-Ausflug der AfD kostet Steuerzahler Tausende Euro
Mehrere AfD-Bundestags-
abgeordnete sind diese Woche erneut in den USA, um sich mit den regierenden Republikanern zu vernetzen. Bei anderen Parteien im Bundestag stößt der Ausflug auf massive Kritik,
auch wegen der Kosten, die damit für die Steuerzahler verbunden sind.
Die Union spricht von Missbrauch.
Alexander Hoffmann, der Vorsitzende der CSU-Landesgruppe im Bundestag, kritisiert die
Reisen scharf:
▶️ »Es ist mehr als bedenklich, wenn eine Fraktion die Möglichkeit der Auslandsreisen missbraucht, um im Ausland
‼️Stimmung gegen Deutschland zu machen.«
"US plans to start checking all tourists' social media"
This is why the whole "free speech" shtick of the American right is totally fake, the opposite of the truth, a classic Orwellian sleight of hand, doublespeak, doublethink, where everything is the virtual opposite of what is stated.
What this is about, is ideological purity, a fake right wing racist and white supremacist narrative, carefully dressed up in false justifications. It's a narrative based on total lying. The oligarchs, peddling this new fascism, know that their specious narrative doesn't stand up to scrutiny.

So they know they need to control the narrative, just like in the old Soviet Union. The irony is incredible, the right are using state communist mind control tactics. To control intellectuals, who see through their mindless, unintelligent lies.
