Samsung bets on the folding smartphone in 2019

The terminal could raise its price to $ 1,500.  It is not the first time that we talk about a folding device by Samsung.  For a couple of years there has been talk about the possibility of seeing Koreans launch phones with screens capable of bending, however, the information has never exceeded its condition of rumor.  According to The Wall Street Journal, the company is working on a device of this type that would be launched in 2019 as its main novelty in the mobile phone market.  The American media has also revealed some details about its technical specifications.  The folding phone would have a 7-inch OLED screen capable of bending in half to take the shape of a wallet.  The report states that the outside of the device would also have a screen to display the notifications and other complementary information.  The terminal would have two screens, one of them on the outside to show additional information.  Due to the two screens of the te...

They broke the Google: fine of 5000 mill. to google / android

Google has received a fine of € 4300 million EUR ($ 5000 million USD, almost $ 95,000 million MXN) from European Union authorities, since the Mountain View company violated certain antitrust laws.  According to the European Commission, Google has abused its dominance of the Android market in three different ways:  Google has integrated its own search engine and Chrome applications into the operating system.  Additionally, Google has blocked phone producers from creating devices that use modified versions of Android.  Finally, Google made payments to multiple telephone operators and phone producers to place the search engine automatically on certain smartphones.  Currently, the European Commission wants Google to "end its illegal behavior in an effective way, 90 days after this decision": due to this, Google would have to stop imposing Chrome and its search engine on third parties to allow them to use the Google Play Store.  Additionally, Google would h...

NASA destroyed the evidence of life on Mars by mistake

NASA mistakenly destroyed the first evidence of life on Mars more than 40 years ago.  A study reveals that in 1976 the Viking probes discovered organic matter on Mars, but the results were burned by mistake.  Last June, Curiosity, the unmanned space mission sent by NASA to the red planet to explore it, found the clearest clues of organic matter ever found on the surface of Mars. Not only that, he also found evidence of seasonal variations in methane emissions.  Which leads one to think that the source of this gas, which is often a sign of biological activity, comes from the planet and could be stored in the ice sheets beneath its surface.  Despite the joy unleashed in the National Aeronautics and Space Administration by the great scientific discovery, a study has just revealed that it already took place in 1976, more than 40 years ago.  The Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets claims that another NASA mission, the Viking probes, launched into space to c...

Peruvians have a gene that predisposes them to low stature

Imagen
At the annual meeting of the Society of Genomics Biology at Harvard, the Postdoc team Samira Asgari and Soumya Raychaudhuri presented their study on the predisposition of Peruvians to have a stature less than average. According to the researchers, Peruvians are among the populations that have the lowest carvings in the world. "In Peru, we are 10 centimeters less tall than Americans and 15 centimeters less than the Dutch, the highest in the world. It is known that the average height of Peruvian man is 1.65 cm. and of the woman of 1.53 cm ", explains the Medical Adviser of RPP News Elmer Huerta. The height of a human being is determined by the interaction of 700 genes, which with their small individual effects, explain 7% of the variability (genetic characteristics in a population) of the size. The surprising thing is that in the case of Peruvians, a single gene determines a minimum percentage of the variability of height. In terms of genetics, a large proportion results....

The origin of the blood groups that showed all this

Why 40% of Caucasians have type A blood, while among Asians only have 27%?   Where do different types of blood come from?   In 1900, the Austrian doctor Karl Landsteiner discovered for the first time the existence of different blood groups, which earned him the Nobel Prize in Medicine and Physiology in 1930. Since then, scientists have developed tools increasingly powerful to investigate biology of blood types and thus be able to improve the application of new medicines.   While much has been learned about them, blood groups remain strangely mysterious.   In fact, scientists have not yet found a good explanation of their own existence.   "Is not that amazing?" Said Ajit Varki, a biologist at the University of California, San Diego.   "Almost 100 years after the Nobel Prize was awarded for this discovery, we still do not know exactly what they are for."   Because doctors know about the existence of different types of blood, they can save lives by tr...
