🚒 Quan arriba un FOCA, res és improvisat. Així treballen aquests gegants de l’extinció.
Quan un gran incendi forestal amenaça de descontrolar-se, hi ha un avió que gairebé tothom espera veure arribar.
El coneixem com a FOCA (Canadair).
Però… sabeu realment com treballa?

Les tasques a #IFTiana evolucionen favorablement i estem treballant per acabar de tancar-lo amb línia d'aigua. Centrem les descàrregues dels mitjans aeris al segon terç del flanc esquerre. Mantenim 32🚒 i 11 #MAER#bomberscat

Revolut yields to the pressure; it makes Catalan the default language on its ATMs in Catalonia for its 1.2 million local customers.
Revolut has informed the media that Catalan is now the default language on its cash machines (ATMs) across Catalonia.
The change affects all 57 Revolut ATMs currently operating in the region. Revolut, which has more than 1.2 million clients in Catalonia, will also incorporate Catalan into its website and mobile app during the first half of 2027.
Revolut faced years of public pressure on social media from Catalan users and language organisations. I followed this with interest, and the action culminated in a celebration for supporters when Revolut posted a job ad seeking a Catalan-language translator.
Good win for the local culture, but not easy for Revolut. Every language pack and every local feature added to the Revolut app is present on every user's app. For example, Lithuanian Revolut customers will have the Catalan language pack in the app, and Catalans now have Lithuanian mortgage application and management features, but these features aren't accessible.
Another thing worth mentioning is that for the first time, Revolut has released customer numbers for the region of Catalonia. Based on a simple calculation, Catalonia has a Revolut customer penetration rate of 14.62%. That is higher than Spain's total, at 13%. Catalonia could be the region that has the highest penetration in Spain.

Sebastian Sawe and Yomif Kejelcha both broke 2-hour mark at London Marathon 2026 with Adidas Adizero Adios Pro Evo 3.
Tigst Assefa set women’s marathon record wearing it too.
It’s lightest legal race day shoe ever, weighing 97 grams (3.4oz) for men’s size 9, about 1/2 the weight of a regular men’s running shoe.
Adidas was able to reduce weight by 30% vs. Pro 2 model and most of improvement came from a lighter foam compound and upper part is inspired by kite surfing sail material.
They U-shaped carbon fiber plate is a lighter and so are the laces lol.
Adidas created Lightstrike Pro foam: uses gas injection (nitrogen) to expand billions microscopic cells which makes it ultralight and bouncy. Wild.
This shoe arms race (“race to zero”) is getting out of control. Seems like 50 grams (1.7oz) may be as light as it can get.
The public version release of shoe is coming up and will cost $500.
