Day 6 of the #30DayMapChallenge - Dimensions. A thread of a few maps that cross into the three dimensional world. Here is a 3D representation of the topography and bathymetry around Gibralta.
Hoy el juicio del caso Gisèle Pélicot concluyó con un veredicto histórico. Abro hilo con los cargos y las penas asignadas a cada violador del caso de Mazan.🧵Las imágenes de los acusados son del registro de Marion Dubreuil, la dibujante de tribunales del caso.
¡ESTO NO ES NORMAL!
Pasados unos años recordaremos con nostalgia aquel 2024 en el que vimos en España auroras boreales en varias ocasiones, 2 cometas, un eclipse penumbral de luna...
Hilo con lo que he podido capturar de estos eventos empezando por las auroras 11 de octubre:
Uno de los dos (él o yo) se ha liado de continente...
Es la era del smartphone y que nunca esté señor cuelgue ni una sola foto de nada de lo que le ocurre...sus seguidores, que no son pocos, se lo agradecería mucho!
CIENCIA+INFORMACION CORRECTA +IMAGENES=VERACIDAD
Quería adelantaros que (sea lo que sea) no participo en esto ni lo haré.
Por torpe que sea, quiero participar en debates de verdad. No en un circo.

META VA A EMPEZAR A UTILIZAR IA‼️
la empresa que lleva facebook, Instagram y whatssap tiene nueva política que usará contenido de sus usuarios para alimentar una IA, en este hilo explico cómo anularlo IMPORTANTE HACERLO ANTES DEL 26 DE JUNIO (abajo explico porque)
El duque de Alba necesita vaciar de inquilinos dos bloques de oficinas. Quiere convertirlos en pisos turísticos.
Empieza a negociar y parece que va a salirle más caro de lo previsto. Pero entonces llega una inspección del Ayuntamiento de Madrid 🧵👇

Ten months ago, we launched the Vesuvius Challenge to solve the ancient problem of the Herculaneum Papyri, a library of scrolls that were flash-fried by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD.
Today we are overjoyed to announce that our crazy project has succeeded. After 2000 years, we can finally read the scrolls:
This image was produced by @Youssef_M_Nader, @LukeFarritor, and @JuliSchillij, who have now won the Vesuvius Challenge Grand Prize of $700,000. Congratulations!!
These fifteen columns come from the very end of the first scroll we have been able to read and contain new text from the ancient world that has never been seen before. The author – probably Epicurean philosopher Philodemus – writes here about music, food, and how to enjoy life's pleasures. In the closing section, he throws shade at unnamed ideological adversaries – perhaps the stoics? – who "have nothing to say about pleasure, either in general or in particular."
This year, the Vesuvius Challenge continues. The text that we revealed so far represents just 5% of one scroll.
In 2024, our goal is to from reading a few passages of text to entire scrolls, and we're announcing a new $100,000 grand prize for the first team that is able to read at least 90% of all four scrolls that we have scanned.
The scrolls stored in Naples that remain to be read represent more than 16 megabytes of ancient text. But the villa where the scrolls were found was only partially excavated, and scholars tell us that there may be thousands more scrolls underground. Our hope is that the success of the Vesuvius Challenge catalyzes the excavation of the villa, that the main library is discovered, and that whatever we find there rewrites history and inspires all of us.
It's been a great joy to work on this strange and amazing project. Thanks to Brent Seales for laying the foundation for this work over so many years, thanks to the friends and Twitter users whose donations powered our effort, and thanks to the many contestants whose contributions have made the Vesuvius Challenge successful!
