Manifestation du 17 octobre : entre La France insoumise et le gouvernement, un face-à-face de plus en plus virulent

L’exécutif, comme les partis du bloc central, de droite et d’extrême droite, accusent les « insoumis » d’attiser les violences, tandis que le mouvement de Jean-Luc Mélenchon dénonce « l’amateurisme » et les « manipulations » du ministre de l’intérieur.

Au Brésil, l’ubérisation de l’économie profite à l’extrême droite

En dépit des mesures sociales destinées à réduire la pauvreté, la gauche de Lula a déçu une large partie des classes populaires, en particulier les travailleurs des plateformes numériques, de plus en plus nombreux. Un ressentiment sur lequel capitalise Flavio Bolsonaro, à la veille du second tour de l’élection présidentielle.

Annulation de la dette publique française : les leçons des précédents dans l’histoire

Porté par le candidat « insoumis » Jean-Luc Mélenchon, l’effacement de la dette revient dans les débats à l’approche de la présidentielle 2027. Si cette décision radicale a déjà ponctué l’histoire de la France – et de l’Allemagne –, elle n’a cependant été actée qu’à l’occasion de périodes de guerre, voire de révolution, après un long processus de négociation avec les créanciers.

Burnham’s Britain can learn from Trump in engaging with China

Getting relations with China right is widely seen as Britain’s epoch-defining challenge. It is also one it is woefully unprepared to face. So concluded a recent audit by the Inter-Parliamentary Alliance on China (IPAC), which highlighted that top negotiators lacked basic Chinese language skills. More critically, it exposed a deeper deficit: a poor grasp of China spanning political elites and the public alike. This is rooted in a desk-bound classroom sinology rather than a nuanced appreciation...

China close to matching US spending on ‘new way of war’, Republican senator warns

The United States is lulling itself into a “sense of false security” over its military rivalry with China, according to a Republican senator who called for more spending on modern warfare systems and closer cooperation with allies. Speaking at the Hudson Institute after a recent trip to Japan and South Korea, Dave McCormick, a Pennsylvania senator and West Point graduate, claimed up to 90 per cent of US defence spending funded decades-old equipment and technologies. “We convince ourselves; we...

Will Xi, Trump, Putin meet at Apec? First, they must agree on an agenda

While US President Donald Trump has said he is open to sitting down with Chinese and Russian counterparts Xi Jinping and Vladimir Putin at the Apec summit, it remains far from certain that the three leaders will actually meet in a few weeks. Observers said much would depend on whether the countries could agree on an agenda, with one expert describing this as a “critical lever”. Russia was set to gain most if the trilateral meeting took place, experts said, as the summit would be a potent symbol...

Alibaba ya ha metido RISC-V en más de 6.000 millones de chips

Alibaba es una de las principales bazas de China en su pulso con EEUU en el terreno de la inteligencia artificial (IA). Es muy difícil cuantificar de una forma objetiva cuáles son las corporaciones que sostienen la estrategia del Gobierno liderado por Xi Jinping si pretendemos ponderar el peso de unas frente a otras. Aun así, es razonable atribuir a Alibaba una relevancia equiparable a la de Huawei , Cambricon Technologies o Baidu, entre otras empresas. T-Head, la filial de semiconductores de Alibaba, ha presentado o lanzado durante 2026 varios de los chips más interesantes de la industria de…

Menos de 100 caracteres, 1.200 webs atacadas y más de 100 comprometidas: así está cambiando la IA la ciberseguridad

Durante años hemos asumido que la ciberseguridad era una carrera de fondo: alguien encontraba una vulnerabilidad, otro intentaba cerrarla y, entre medias, hacían falta tiempo, conocimientos y bastante trabajo humano para convertir ese fallo en un ataque real. Esa lógica no ha desaparecido, pero empieza a moverse más deprisa. La inteligencia artificial ya no solo ayuda a escribir código o buscar información: algunos sistemas pueden recibir un objetivo, trabajar durante horas y encadenar por sí mismos buena parte de las tareas que antes mantenían ocupado a un atacante. Unas instrucciones,…

It’s a bird, it’s a plane … it’s a robo-puffin?

Given that water is 1,000 times denser than air, moving through those two mediums requires very different mechanics—or so one might assume. Yet birds like gulls and puffins can plunge into the sea, swim underwater, and leap back into the air to fly away. And now engineers at MIT and EPFL in Lausanne, Switzerland, have…

First-in-human study of dual-imaging catheter to assess heart attack risk, guide treatment

Researchers at the UC Davis National Center for Interventional Biophotonic Technologies (NCIBT) have concluded the first-in-human test of a new device that could help doctors better detect and treat atherosclerosis, the narrowing of blood vessels due to plaque buildup. The flexible catheter-based device, developed at NCIBT labs, is designed to navigate the interior walls of arteries and capture detailed information about plaque buildup in real time.

Scientists finally uncover why statins can cause muscle pain

Scientists have uncovered a surprising reason why statins, the widely prescribed cholesterol-lowering drugs that help prevent heart attacks and strokes, can sometimes cause muscle pain, weakness, and even severe muscle damage. Using advanced imaging technology, researchers discovered that statins can attach to a crucial protein in muscle cells and force open a channel that normally controls calcium flow. This causes calcium to leak continuously, potentially damaging muscle tissue.

Your aging brain may be trading memory for something more valuable

The aging brain may be undergoing a remarkable transformation rather than simply losing its abilities, shifting its focus from remembering details to understanding the bigger picture. Scientists suggest this change could be an evolutionary adaptation that helps older adults develop wisdom and share decades of knowledge with younger generations.

Scientists find a way to fight Alzheimer’s brain damage without removing toxic tau

Scientists have found a promising way to protect the brain from Alzheimer’s-related damage by blocking immune cells that contribute to the destruction of neurons. In mice, the treatment preserved roughly 40% more tissue in memory centers and improved memory, even without removing harmful tau protein buildup.
