Gio CR7 relayed remarks in which Cristiano Ronaldo presented himself as the greatest player in history and believed that his goal statistics spoke for themselves. He also said that the attention focused on the number of goals he needed to reach 1,000 overshadowed, in his opinion, what he was currently accomplishing, and that he preferred things to happen naturally. #CristianoRonaldo #Football #Légende (translated)

He is crazy! We need a minimum of regulation. And Loudoun is a good example: here, we let data centers set up for 10-15 years without regulation, and look where it’s taken us. We need more oversight and rules. Loudoun County is becoming the example in this country and even in the world of what not to do. But that’s not enough for Rick Stone, who complains about the construction of two data centers next to his home. #DataCenters #Loudoun #Pollution (translated)

GeoTales described a scenario where several agricultural regions would be simultaneously affected, while dam production would decrease, trade routes would be disrupted, and populations would experience exceptional heat. It specified that the term "super El Niño" referred to an episode of about +2 °C or more in the Niño 3.4 area, without constituting a universal category comparable to that of cyclones. According to GeoTales, the bulletin published on October 8 by the World Meteorological Organization forecasted an average anomaly of about +3.7 °C in this area for the period from October to December, with a peak around December. It also reported that NOAA assessed the probability of reaching at least +2.5 °C over three months at 83% according to its RONI index, mentioning an episode likely to exceed those observed since 1950. It emphasized that the two agencies used different methods, but their figures indicated an exceptionally intense event. GeoTales explained that observations showed increased heat beneath the surface of the Pacific, a deeper thermocline, as well as anomalies in westerly winds and precipitation in the central and eastern parts of the ocean. It reminded that El Niño is a natural phenomenon and estimated that it would be too simplistic to attribute this episode solely to climate change, while adding that background warming could exacerbate its consequences. To illustrate the possible impacts, GeoTales mentioned Guatemala, citing a video published the day before by LIMIT Media. It wrote that in the "dry corridor" that also crosses Honduras and El Salvador, the lack of rain and crop losses were already undermining the food and income of families relying on maize and bean cultivation. #ElNiño #ChangementClimatique #Météo (translated)

The idea that, for the most dangerous technology humans have ever invented, this would be the final word, and that the companies themselves would be the only counterbalance available to society (...) it is clear that we are not doing enough. On ABC, Bill Gates also rejected the idea - defended by American President Donald Trump - that self-regulation by companies specializing in AI would be sufficient to ensure global safety. #Cybersécurité #IntelligenceArtificielle #BillGates (translated)

React StarAc reported that the theme of the evaluations was to showcase oneself. The students had to explain why they wanted to defend a song and could accompany themselves with an instrument. A list of 20 songs had been imposed on them at the boarding house. They were invited to learn the lyrics by heart, even though they could bring them along, and to reinterpret or recompose the pieces to show their personality. For the prime, the author indicated that a self-portrait was planned. For the "sung and danced" test, registrations were closed and all the students were on the initial list of volunteers; the best grade would allow them to go on tour. The winner of the Top 3 would be immune. #StarAcademy #StarAcademyLeLive #Musique #Chanson #Évaluation (translated)

Joan Larroumec believed that Jean-Luc Mélenchon's success with young people revealed their lack of future prospects. According to him, the current system favored older generations in accessing the best jobs and housing, while young people paid high retirement contributions without being able to hope for a comparable pension. He also stated that the level of taxation made it difficult to become wealthy through work and that inheritance inequalities perpetuated social status gaps. Larroumec said that the threat of artificial intelligence was a major concern neglected by politicians. He cited the United States, where, in his view, the employment of 22-25 year-olds in jobs exposed to AI was already about 19% below its trajectory. He predicted that companies would hire less and prioritize protecting their existing employees, often older, and questioned the future of highly educated young people without jobs. He added that young people were waiting for politicians to offer a vision of a desirable and fair life in France for the coming decades, as well as clear rules of the game. According to him, the old path of studying, finding a good job, buying an apartment, and advancing based on merit no longer existed, and no one on the political scene was living up to those expectations. #jeunesse #inégalités #avenir (translated)

David Colon wrote that the destruction of Yandex servers seemed to have affected Russian bots. According to him, the latest false narrative of the Russian operation Storm1516 targeting the French presidential campaign, published on Friday, October 9, apparently gathered only a few tens of thousands of impressions. The previous one, published on September 24, had obtained millions during the same period, he noted. He added that Kremlin disinformants seemed less effective without their bots. #désinformation #Kremlin #cyberattaque (translated)

Tino explained that writing his book, "100 Tips for Successful Investing," had been one of the most difficult trials of his life. For nearly ten months, his perfectionism had, according to him, caused him doubts, frustrations, short nights, and sometimes tears. He added that the project had also weighed on his health and his private and family life. His partner, with whom he had shared his life for nearly fifteen years, had to accept his absences and the fact that writing sometimes took precedence over their life together, he wrote. Since finishing the book, he had been trying to reconnect with her over the moments that were set aside, while acknowledging that lost time could not really be made up. As the book was meeting with greater success than he had expected, Tino wanted to pay tribute to his partner, believing that without her support, the work probably would not have come to fruition. #Écriture #Amour #Sacrifice (translated)

Press Briefs reported that Ségolène Royal referred to Raphaël Glucksmann as an intern after his victory in the social-democratic primary. The media recalled that she stated to L’Obs at the end of September that he had attended a meeting of Nicolas Sarkozy and did not come from the left. According to Press Briefs, Glucksmann was surrounded by several figures from the outgoing majority, including Aurélien Rousseau, Marguerite Cazeneuve, Simon Bernard, and Sacha Houlié, and was presented by some as a "new Macron." The media also mentioned a campaign note revealed by Mediapart in May, which allegedly recommended targeting wealthy, educated, and older voters as a priority, rather than the 18-25 age group, the working classes, and residents of the suburbs. Press Briefs added that an anonymous executive from Place Publique confided to Mediapart in August that Glucksmann had requested to set the voting fee at 15 euros to restrict the electorate, fearing that too many people participating might lead to a loss. The primary reportedly gathered about 121,000 participants, nearly 14 times less than in 2017 and 22 times less than in 2011, according to the media's comparisons with the first rounds of previous socialist primaries. The media contrasted these figures with the LR primary of 2021, won by Valérie Pécresse with 60.95% of the votes among nearly 115,000 participants. She then obtained 4.78% in the 2022 presidential election. Glucksmann, on the other hand, received 66.17% of the votes in a vote counting approximately 121,000 participants, noted Press Briefs, which questioned the significance of this victory in view of the presidential election. #politique #France #primaires (translated)
