El Bolide is already a reality. During Quail Motorsports of California, the convention where motorsport enthusiasts gather, Bugatti fulfilled the dream of many collectors by presenting this vehicle to the public. In 2020, it was first introduced as an experimental hypercar concept but until now it had not been made available to customers. The Bolide has 1,824 horsepower and an eight-liter W16 engine. In addition, it is equipped with a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission and all-wheel drive. It can reach 100 kilometers per hour in 2.17 seconds, according to the French car brand. After the 2020 presentation, Bugatti was asked…

Japanese researchers have discovered what happens in the brain when people create abstract thoughts. Abstraction is an exclusive capacity of the human species that allows information to be organized beyond immediate sensory reality. We constantly need to think in abstract terms, as our world would be too complex otherwise, the researchers say in a statement . Abstract thinking is, therefore, the extraction and organization of essential information from a large amount of information. The new research examined how humans think abstractly when learning new unknown rules, measuring their brain activity using fMRI. Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is a safe…
An international team of astronomers has identified a new extrasolar planet next to its star: they make up a strange alien world located about 182 light years from Earth. According to specialists, it is the largest sub-Neptunian planet discovered so far, with a radius that is practically three times that of Earth. The subneptunes or subneptunian planets are stars that have a dimension smaller than Neptune, either in terms of their radius or their mass. Those planets that are closest to Neptune’s characteristics are considered weirder and more unusual, even if they are only slightly larger than expected in a…
The new Honor X20 5G is a mid-range smartphone that bets on cutting-edge components with a low price, although for the moment, only for China. Honor yesterday staged its separation from Huawei and the start of a new journey with the presentation of the Magic3 range, high-end smartphones in both features and price that will arrive in Spain. But when the lights went out, the company announced, almost under the covers, a new mobile that may be more interesting to its traditional customer. And we cannot forget that Honor was born as Huawei’s low-cost brand, so the Magic3 is a…
The presentation of the recent GTC 2021, Nvidia’s event focused on Artificial Intelligence and Development, was rendered entirely by computer, and its CEO was controlled by an AI. When Jensen Huang magically appeared in his extravagant kitchen at the GTC 2021 opening conference, no one was surprised. The CEO has already used that strange scenario in past announcements, with its marble relief that reveals somewhat special tastes. Perhaps more surprising was when part of the kitchen disappeared to facilitate the presentation of the products. Otherwise, it was a typical conference for this world in pandemic; It was prerecorded and Huang…
Humans could recognize Earth after mass extinctions with ectogenesis: If all living things perished in a powerful enough mass extinction event, their cryopreserved embryos and plant seeds could survive. This is established in an article published in Science X. The embryos would be stored in deep underground bunkers for short duration events and in fully automated orbiting spacecraft for long duration events. When favorable conditions on Earth had returned after an apocalyptic event, the embryos would be thawed and raised using the emerging assisted reproductive techniques of ectogenesis . The ectogénesis is the development of embryos outside the natural womb,…
Scientists from the CNRS and the Ecole Normale Supérieure – PSL have discovered how to develop artificial neurons using ions to transport information, in the same way that biological nerve cells do. Their work, published in the journal Science, reports that devices made of a single layer of water that carry ions within graphene nanoparticles have the same transmission capacity as a neuron, as reported in a statement . With an energy consumption equivalent to two bananas a day, the human brain can perform many complex tasks. Its high energy efficiency depends in particular on its base unit, the neuron,…
This is the worst time to buy a new iPhone. Apple always launches a new model in September , the only exception being last year, which introduced its latest smartphone during October. This is the big reason why buying the iPhone 12 right now is a bad decision. This latest model is still around a price of between 700 and 1,000 euros , so the most convenient thing is to wait for the company to launch the iPhone 13 and invest that sum in state-of-the-art technology, meanwhile, it is expected that this model will be present next month, according to…
Aramco doubles its profits in the first half to $ 47 billion. It will distribute 18,760 million dollars in dividends. The Saudi state oil company Aramco, the largest in the world, shot its profits during the first half of this year to $ 47,180 million, slightly more than double (103% more) than the 23,230 registered in the same period of 2020, he announced this Sunday the company in a statement. Regarding the quarterly results, the 25,500 million dollars obtained between last April and June represented an increase of 288% compared to the benefits of the same period last year, when…
Users of the beta version of iOS 15 have discovered that the camera application is now able to eliminate the effect of “lens flare”, or lens flare, when we photograph scenes with a direct light source. It is very possible that right now, among the photos that you have stored on your mobile you have one with that failure. It is easily recognizable as a “halo” of light, or a point of light that appears in a part of the image. It normally appears when the sun is low enough to hit the lens, hence the circular shape it usually…
