Are you a friend or an enemy in Uber?

In 2020, Uber was at a crossroads: the company had made a expensive bet on the taxis of the robots, but the project was full of legal problems and burning in cash. So Uber gave it to another start-up.But five years later, Uber's future seems to be linked to autonomous vehicles as always. The company is now betting that it can embrace the driver without driver without spending money to build them, at risk of being exceeded by the companies that do it.In recent months, Uber has doubled on what he calls his "platform strategy", collaborating with taxi robot companies like Waymo. In Phoenix, cyclists can order a Waymo car via the Uber and Austin app in Texas, Waymo's taxi robotes soon wear the Uber logo. The giant who spent the trip now has 15 autonomous partnerships for vehicles, from Waymo t...

Trump offers us the acquisition of Gaza and says that the Palestinians should move

Tuesday Trump said that the United States should take control of Gaza and permanently move the entire Palestinian population of the devastated sea enclave, one of the most brazen ideas that any American leader has advanced over the years.Hosting Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Israel in the White House, Trump said that all the two million Palestinians from Gaza should be transferred to countries such as Egypt and Jordan due to the devastation caused by the Israel campaign against Hamas after the terrorist attack of 7 October, 2023."The United States will take control of the Gaza Strip and we will also do a job," Trump said during a press conference on Tuesday evening. "We will have it and will be responsible" for the disposal of unexploded ammunition and the reconstruction of Gaza in ...

The cows were infected with a second form of avian influenza

Nevada dairy cows were infected with a new form of bird influence which is distinct from the version that has spread through the herds in the last year, has announced the Department of Agriculture of the United States on Wednesday.The discovery indicates that the virus, known as H5n1, has spread from birds in cows at least twice - leading to these two series of infections - and that it could continue to do so. It also suggests that the virus can involve a persistent risk for cows and people who work closely with them.Before last year, scientists did not know that the cows were susceptible to this type of influence."This is not what someone wanted to see," said Louise Moncla, an evolutionary biologist who studies avian influence at the University of Pennsylvania. "We must now consider the p...

The French government survives the vote of distrust

The French government lived to see another day on Wednesday, after it survived a vote of distrust in Parliament and gave the Prime Minister recently appointed temporary recovery for months of political turbulence and the country a promise of stability, at least shortly term.The motion of no confidence was supported by only 128 legislators in the 577 -seater national assembly, the lower part of France, short of the absolute majority required. If he had passed, the motion would have forced the centrist Prime Minister, François Bayrou, and his cabinet to resign.The failure of the motion guarantees a safe passage of an invoice of the 2025 budget of which France needs serious - has operated with temporary arrest funding since the beginning of the year - and that the hopes of the government rene...

Trump’s proposal to “take control” Gaza Sparks Refurbish Rambukes

On Tuesday evening the declaration of President Trump according to which the United States could "take over" to the Gaza Strip and that its Palestinian population could have been permanently churned out was immediately criticized in the Middle East and beyond. In a joint press conference of the White House with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel, Trump said: "The United States will take control of the Gaza strip and we will also do a job with it". He said that the enclave, which has been devastated for over 15 months of war between Israel and Hamas, could be redeveloped and transformed into "The Riviera del Middle East".

How a Leftist Activist Group Helped Torpedo a Psychedelic Therapy

After more than three decades of planning and a $250 million investment, Lykos Therapeutics’ application for the first psychedelic drug to reach federal regulators was expected to be a shoo-in.Lykos, the corporate arm of a nonprofit dedicated to winning mainstream acceptance of psychedelics, had submitted data to the Food and Drug Administration showing that its groundbreaking treatment for post-traumatic stress disorder — MDMA plus talk therapy — was significantly more effective than existing treatments.At a pivotal public hearing last summer, two dozen scientists, doctors and trauma survivors told an F.D.A. advisory panel how MDMA-assisted therapy had brought marked relief from a mental health condition associated with high rates of suicide, especially among veterans.Then came skeptics w...

The main doctors raise serious doubts about the condemnation of “Killer Nurse” Lucy Letby

On Tuesday, an international group of 14 neonatal and pediatric specialists raised serious doubts about the tests used to condemn the British nurse Lucy Letby, who was judged guilty in 2023 for killing seven children at the hospital where she worked.In a dramatic press conference in London, the president of the panel, dr. Shoo Lee, Canadian neonatologist, said that the vast independent review that presided over had not found evidence that Mrs. Letby had killed or attempted to kill any of the children her care.He also highlighted harmful results that indicate serious errors in medical care in the unit in which deaths and chronic failures occurred in the management of neonatal conditions. He said some of the deaths had been preventable."Our conclusion was that there was no medical tests in s...

Iran is developing plans for the fastest and more broken weapon, concludes the United States

The new intelligence on the Iranian nuclear program convinced American officials that a secret team of the country's scientists is exploring a faster, even if more rough approach, to the development of an atomic weapon if Tehran's leadership decides to run for a bomb , according to the current and former American officials.The development also comes among the signs that the new president of Iran is actively looking for a negotiation with the Trump administration.The intelligence has been collected in the last months of the Biden administration, then transmitted to the national security team of President Trump during the transition of power, according to officials, who asked the anonymity to discuss sensitive details. The evaluation of intelligence warned that the engineers and scientists o...
