We have reached a common understanding aimed at moderating Chinese exports of hybrid and plug-in hybrid vehicles to the European Union. This opens the prospect of a reduction of more than half of Chinese exports. Among the most spectacular commitments made by Beijing is the one to significantly curb its exports of hybrid cars to the EU, which should prevent millions of these vehicles from arriving in the Old Continent in the coming years, announced Maros Sefcovic. #CommerceUE #Chine #VéhiculesHybrides (translated)

After several days of reflection, GeoTales announced its return and stated that it wanted to refocus its account on science, which it presented as the origin of its identity and audience. It said it has more than 53,000 subscribers and aims for 100,000 "in a few months." It cited volcanology, seismology, natural disaster monitoring, and scientific discoveries among the topics it wished to address, as well as technological developments, notably artificial intelligence and its possible consequences. It said it wanted to explain these topics rigorously and without sensationalism, while making knowledge accessible to the largest number of people. GeoTales also stated that it deeply loves France. It mentioned its multiple origins, of which it is proud, and explained that France is the country where it grew up, built its life, and founded its family. It added that it intends to defend the country when it believes it is necessary to react, without making its account a political space. It thanked its ever-present subscribers and summarized its approach by stating that science was its compass and that France remained its home. #Science #GeoTales #France (translated)

Maranello Paddock wrote that Lewis Hamilton had formed a team of engineers at Ferrari that included people outside the historical circle of the Scuderia. According to the post, sources close to the driver described a method different from the usual routine, which relied on his feedback to better identify the car's problems and the priorities to address. The seven-time world champion was also said to have been recruited to help evolve working methods, thanks to his experience in winning teams and his influence. His approach reportedly elicited mixed reactions within the team. The post estimated that the group formed around Hamilton constituted the strongest core of this approach, but the next step was to broaden the consensus. It claimed that Hamilton had leeway to analyze the functioning of the team that Fernando Alonso had not benefited from and that Sebastian Vettel had even less. Carlos Sainz had reportedly established a methodical dialogue with the engineers. According to the post, Hamilton could bring a different experience and contribute to change, a mission that would have been implicit from his arrival. Maranello Paddock also wrote that Charles Leclerc, who had spent his entire career at Ferrari, did not have the same external benchmarks and often had to compensate on track for unresolved issues. However, the post indicated that Leclerc had moved closer to his teammate's perspective, which he found interesting. It was estimated that this convergence could strengthen the drivers' demands if their different approaches led them to face the same difficulties. According to the post, Hamilton's recent statements reflected this evolution: he still wanted changes but had to convince the management to accept new technical practices, using arguments, evidence, and a broader consensus. Maranello Paddock added that he needed to prioritize internal dialogue and avoid putting pressure on Frédéric Vasseur. Discussions about the future of the director could have complicated the process, while support for Vasseur could, according to the post, help continue the changes already underway. Finally, Maranello Paddock called Hamilton's podium finish in Sepang an encouraging sign and estimated that his influence would depend on the ability to extend the method developed with his engineers to the entire team. The post referred to an article by Giuly Duchessa for more information. https://t.co/lzVgcJhYJp) #Ferrari #Hamilton #F1 (translated)

Frenchie wrote that OpenAI had published 722 proofs of open mathematical problems, obtained on average after three hours of computation each. According to him, some figures suggested that these results represented 80% of what humanity had discovered in mathematics over the past three years, including on problems sometimes studied for decades. He estimated that the profession of mathematician would not disappear, but that the work would shift toward verification of proofs and their understanding. He also described the world of mathematics as being in shock and divided: Fields medalists were denouncing the rush of laboratories to open problems, while others were advising OpenAI. Frenchie concluded that history might remember 2024-2026 as the beginning of modern mathematics. #Mathématiques #OpenAI #Innovation (translated)

Etoiles explained that Kamel did not go to the Worlds after having to go to the hospital at the last moment for a serious family reason. He wrote that, under these circumstances, Kamel could not change countries and that since the departure was decided at the last moment, no one could replace him. Etoiles added that he understood his interlocutor could not know this, but it was difficult to speak without taking into account the unexpected events of life. #Vie #Compréhension #Aléas (translated)

“HE HAS ALWAYS HAD THIS TALENT. WE COULD SEE IT. That he arrives in the French national team, maybe not right away, but his progress doesn’t surprise me. Even when he wasn’t playing, he gave everything. He already loved to work with intensity. He was very brave, he took risks. HE HAD A GOOD UNDERSTANDING OF THE GAME. The club invested a lot when he was there. Many players arrived like Kluivert, Gouiri, Stengs… There was competition. MAYBE HE WAS IN NICE AT THE WRONG TIME.” #Football #Ligue1 #Nice (translated)

I had the pleasure of meeting the president of the Belgian federal Parliament, Mr. Peter De Roover, at the Parliament's headquarters in Brussels. Our important exchanges focused on several issues related to strengthening constructive dialogue in its various forms, as an essential peaceful instrument for addressing transnational international crises. We also emphasized the importance of preventive religious diplomacy carried out by the Muslim World League. We discussed the crucial role that the diversity of religious institutions around the world can play in defusing conflicts before they erupt, particularly those related to hate speech and the clash of civilizations. This role involves early awareness of the universal nature of difference and diversity, which should be addressed through dialogue, understanding, and collective action around shared values, in order to promote peace in the world and harmony within societies, while respecting everyone's right to live with dignity. I would like to express my deep gratitude for the commendations made by the president of the Parliament for our efforts on behalf of the Muslim World League and the Organization of Muslim Scholars. He praised, in this regard, the leading role played by the League in promoting understanding and mutual respect, fostering peaceful coexistence, and strengthening trust between societies. He described this presence as a concrete example of positive international pluralism and preventive diplomacy. I was also pleased that the president of the Parliament acknowledged the concrete nature of the international action we undertake on behalf of the League, as well as its institutional commitment, which goes beyond theoretical frameworks to establish real dialogue with leaders and communities around the world. The role of the League thus serves as a concrete model of contribution to building peace and promoting the values of coexistence, tolerance, and social cohesion. #Dialogue #Paix #Diplomatie (translated)
