Blockchain Documentary | Cryptocurrency
The Great Reset and The Rise of Bitcoin | Blockchain Documentary | Cryptocurrency
Storyline:
At the beginning of the last century, major economies left the gold standard and started the practice of printing money without any assets backing it. This gave governments the power of infinite money. A power that has been abused in the past, and to this day, is used in the name of "saving the economy" through actions which, in fact, devalues our currencies and leads to the impoverishment of citizens in the long term.
Or so it used to be - nowadays, the economy has been "saved" time and time again, using the same instruments, increasing debt, increasing the money supply, leading governments and central banks to a point of no return, where they have only one option left: continue printing. This impoverishment of the population that used to be a long-term effect of our system is now becoming a short-term effect, thanks to governments like the U.S. government increasing the money supply by over 40% in less than two years. Although this acceleration seems obvious now, some have been observing this from the sidelines and have taken action.
It is not governments, not universities or think tanks that came up with the solution. It all started from a post on an internet forum written by a person under the alias Satoshi Nakamoto. Putting together pre-existing computer science concepts, a new form of money was created by this person (or persons) and shared with the world. Its power, community, decentralization and scaling potential did the rest. Fast-forward over a decade and we now have an asset that has a valuation of approximately $1 trillion that no one can shut down. It is money that has hard rules that cannot be changed, with a maximum supply of 21 million bitcoin. These two factors make it the hardest form of money in existence and, essentially, the better form of money.
The film explains the details of how Bitcoin works, how mining works and the existing scaling options, such as the Lightning Network, that unlock bitcoin's potential for growth and global adoption as a currency. The film "The Great Reset and the Rise of Bitcoin" puts together all the important details about our economic context - central bank actions, history, bitcoin and more - in order for viewers to get a good level of understanding on our current situation and be able to make educated decisions on the future of the financial world they want to live in.

40,000 years of music explained in 8 minutes | Michael Spitzer
The evolution of music over millennia is tied to human civilization.
For example, hunter-gatherers, who were very mobile, had to have small, light instruments to carry with them. Once we settled into bigger cities, larger instruments could be built.
Today, music is as accessible as running water. But if you were born in Beethoven's time, you would be lucky to hear two symphonies in your lifetime.

The World In 2050, The Real Future Of Earth (BBC & Nat Geo Documentaries)
Can you imagine our world in 2050? Can you imagine the earth in 2050? Can you imagine people in 2050? Do you want to know the future of earth? By mid-century there will likely be 9 billion people on the planet, consuming ever more resources and leading ever more technologically complex lives. What will our cities be like? How will we eat in the future of Earth? Will global warming trigger catastrophic changes, or will we be able to engineer our way out of the world climate crisis?
In the future world demographic changes will certainly be dramatic. Rockefeller University mathematical biologist Joel Cohen says it's likely that by 2050 the majority of the people in the world will live in urban areas of the earth, and will have a significantly higher average age than people today.

Constellation : grandeur et décadence d'une star des airs - Lockheed - Aviation - HD - SBS
Imaginé par le milliardaire touche-à-tout de génie Howard Hugues, le Constellation a marqué les esprits. Avion de ligne mythique construit par l'Américain Lockheed, il est resté l'emblème d'une époque où le transport aérien était un véritable luxe. Réquisitionné par l'armée pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale, il a ensuite assuré de nombreuses liaisons transatlantiques pour une clientèle très aisée, prête à débourser l'équivalent de 10 000 euros pour un billet. L'arrivée des avions à réaction, et surtout le 707 mis en service par Boeing en 1958, signe la fin brutale du Constellation. L'acteur Tchéky Karyo prête sa voix pour raconter l'histoire de cette «star des airs».

The End Of Free Money At The Federal Reserve
Science 12min.
The U.S. is entering a new economic era. It began with an interest rate tightening cycle coming out of the Federal Reserve, with decisions that have reshaped personal finance in America. Some savings accounts can now return meaningful interest for the first time in years. It has also led to a Wall Street reshuffling, and a wave of corporate bankruptcies as some bad bets turn sour. With these free money years coming to a close, we examine how the Fed's decision-making has affected the economy.

Le phénomène El Niño va-t-il aggraver le réchauffement climatique ?
Science
Le retour du phénomène météorologique El Niño a été confirmé en juillet 2023. Au même moment, la planète subit des conséquences du réchauffement climatique depuis plusieurs mois : incendies, canicules et sécheresse. Face à cette double menace, faut-il s’attendre au pire ?
Il faut rappeler qu’El Niño est une anomalie climatique qui augmente la température de l’océan Pacifique et revient en général tous les deux à sept ans. Les épisodes durent habituellement neuf à douze mois. En 2023, cela faisait sept ans qu’il n’y avait pas eu de véritable phénomène El Niño selon l’OMM, depuis l’épisode 2015-2016.
Alors qu’attendre d’un nouvel El Niño ? Risque t’il d’accélerer le réchauffement mondial ? Le réchauffement climatique a t’il un impact sur la puissance de cette anomalie climatique ?

How The Cellphone Market Is Transforming | CNBC Marathon
Science
Made in China. It’s a common phrase known by many. Cellphones, TV screens and game consoles are just some of the millions of electronics manufactured and imported from China to the U.S. daily. China has controlled the smartphone manufacturing market for years. While some industries, like the semiconductor industry and the EV battery market, are scrambling to build new factories across the U.S., tech giants like Apple and Google are not making the same effort to do that. CNBC explores why tech giants produce phones abroad and whether it makes sense to move production to America.
Dumb phones, once considered outdated, are still prevalent around the world, making up about a quarter of mobile phones actively in use. While affordability in developing countries is a significant reason for their continued use, there could be an unexpected but potential rise in use among younger generations conscientious about the potential smart phones could have on mental health. While Nokia and Motorola are still some of the biggest dumb phone makers in the world, Punkt. and Light are two start-ups betting on the resurgence in popularity.
For years, BlackBerry was the most popular smartphone brand in the U.S. After failing to adjust to the rapidly-changing industry and falling to competitors like Apple and Google, the company pivoted to an entirely new direction. Now, it’s focused solely on software and cybersecurity — trying to leave the iconic cellphones in the past. CNBC visited BlackBerry's Autonomous Vehicle Innovation Center and interviewed CEO John Chen to see what the company is up to now.

4 psychological tricks that work on EVERYONE - The Science of Persuasion//ROBERT CIALDINI
Why your brain creates trauma | Lisa Feldman Barrett
Aided by best-selling psychology books of the last decade, such as Bessel van der Kolk’s The Body Keeps the Score, discussions about trauma and how to deal with it have entered popular public discourse. From police departments to school classrooms, trauma-informed approaches have taken center stage.
But leading neuroscientist Lisa Feldman Barrett challenges the popular notion that trauma resides solely in the body. She asserts that trauma is rooted in the brain’s predictions and the construction of our experiences. When an adverse experience becomes traumatic, the brain heavily weighs and anticipates that experience in its future predictions. This ongoing prediction and re-experiencing of the traumatic event strengthens the neural connections associated with it, making the predictions more likely to occur in the future.
Rather than focusing on the body as the site of healing, she suggests that changing the brain’s models of prediction is what needs to be addressed to break free from the cycle of trauma. By understanding the role of predictions and the brain’s plasticity, Feldman Barrett offers hope for transforming traumatic experiences and finding new, lasting paths to healing.

How to be happier in 5 steps with zero weird tricks | Laurie Santos
Sometimes, it’s really hard to be happy. And there’s a reason for that: The human brain isn’t hard-wired for happiness. Why? Because happiness isn’t essential for survival. To make matters worse, our minds can deceive us when it comes to happiness, leading us to chase things that won’t make us happy in the long run.
To solve for this, Yale psychology professor Laurie Santos recommends a set of practices, dubbed “re-wirements.” These practices include prioritizing social connection, being other-oriented, focusing on gratitude and blessings, and incorporating exercise into our daily routine.
By understanding the common pitfalls of our thinking and adopting new behaviors, we can achieve true happiness, and make it last. For Santos, happiness isn’t just a state; it’s an ongoing practice.

Extreme Heat Could Cost The U.S. Economy $100 Billion A Year — Here's How
Just about every corner of the U.S. has already experienced some extreme heat this month, with the West and Southwest likely continuing to experience unprecedented high temperatures at least through the end of the month. And while public safety is a significant concern, there are growing economic impacts on healthcare, infrastructure, transportation, and other areas estimated to cost the U.S. economy $100 billion annually. Certified Consulting Meteorologist and Forbes contributor Jim Foerster joins Brittany Lewis on "Forbes Newsroom" to discuss.

The Tartessos were an advanced Bronze Age society that flourished in the Iberian Peninsula in southern Spain around 3,000 years ago.
But 500 years later, the civilisation vanished mysteriously.
Now new research is investigating how and why the Tartessos disappeared.

LA FACE CACHÉ D'INTERNET
Le Wifi, la 5G ou encore les smartphones donnent l’image d’un monde sans fil. Pourtant, si nous connaissons Internet tel qu’il est aujourd’hui, c’est grâce à des câbles sous-marins, qui canalisent près de 99 % du trafic mondial (les satellites ne jouent qu’un rôle marginal).
Sans eux, il serait impossible d’échanger des messages instantanés d’un bout à l’autre de la planète, d’utiliser des services de streaming ou de télétravailler comme ce fut le cas pour des millions d’employés lors de la pandémie.
Bien que les câbles sous-marins soient relativement méconnus, il en existe plus de 420 dans le monde en 2021, soit 1,3 million de kilomètres de câbles de fibre optique traversant les océans et connectant les continents.
Dans cette vidéo, « Les Echos » reviennent brièvement sur l’histoire des premiers câbles sous-marins au XIXe siècle, à l’époque des télégraphes. Une révolution qui permettait alors d’échanger de brefs messages en quelques minutes des deux côtés de l’Atlantique, et le début d’un monde où tout s’accélère. Les avancées technologiques au cours des décennies suivantes enclencheront l’essor du téléphone puis d’Internet.
Aujourd’hui, une grande partie des câbles sous-marins posés dans le monde sont fabriqués dans le nord de la France, puis déployés par des navires qui partent pour des missions de plusieurs semaines. Des câbles toujours plus puissants et toujours plus longs, dont le record de 39.000 kilomètres est en passe d’être battu dans les prochaines années.
Avec l’omniprésence d’Internet dans notre quotidien, les câbles sous-marins sont devenus un secteur stratégique que les Etats cherchent à sécuriser, et dans lequel investissent désormais les Gafam en déployant leurs propres infrastructures, et en tirant les dépenses de R & D vers le haut pour parvenir à des câbles toujours plus sophistiqués.
Pour décrypter ce sujet, Camille Morel, chercheuse en relations internationales à l’Université Jean Moulin Lyon III, et auteure d’une thèse sur les câbles sous-marins, ainsi que Jean-Luc Vuillemin, directeur des réseaux et des services internationaux chez Orange, apportent leur éclairage.
Enfin, « Les Echos » ont pu filmer la salle de supervision du réseau français. Un lieu confidentiel où sont pilotés en temps réel les liens et les transmissions entre les réseaux de câbles sous-marins, de fibres terrestres et de satellites. Bref, le centre névralgique de l’Internet français.

Archaeologists have begun the biggest excavation of the ancient city of Pompeii in a generation.
Several new discoveries have already been uncovered, including a bakery, human skeletons and a painting resembling a pizza.
Pompeii in the south of Italy, was a sophisticated ancient Roman city destroyed by a catastrophic volcanic eruption from Mount Vesuvius nearly 2,000 years ago.
Today, it is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the most visited tourist attractions in Italy.
