🤖✨ Breaking news: #AI is glorified while "deep fact-checking" sits in the corner shouting "Notice me, Senpai!" 😩🔍 Apparently, if you add 'deep' to anything, it becomes magic—except when it's fact-checking, which remains invisible. 🙈📉

Some forms of fading aren’t disappearance.
They’re survival. Stillness mistaken for absence.
What if beauty never left, only the world stopped returning it?
A short reflection on being seen, aging, and the quiet power of witnessing yourself:

The poor man’s conscience is clear; yet he is ashamed. His character is irreproachable, yet he is neglected and despised. He feels himself out of the sight of others, groping in the dark. Mankind takes no notice of him: he rambles and wanders unheeded. In the midst of a crowd, at church, in the market, at a play, at an execution or coronation, he is in as much obscurity as he would be in a garret or a cellar. He is not disapproved, censured, or reproached: he is only not seen. This total inattention is to him, mortifying, painful and cruel. […] To be wholly overlooked, and to know it, are intolerable.

🚀 Behold, the browser that claims to be #faster than a caffeinated cheetah and more private than a teenager's diary! #Waterfox, the browser that's apparently so secretive, not even your ISP knows what you're up to. 🙄 With Oblivious DNS and private tabs, it's like your very own digital #invisibility #cloak. But don't worry, its speed will surely help you reach the end of the #internet before anybody notices! 😂

TRATADO DE INVISIBILIDAD de Luciana Kaplan 📽️
An intimate, honest portrait of women who work in cleaning services at different institutions in Mexico City, their problems and the labor abuses they experience, is what Mexican director Luciana Kaplan shows us in her film #TratadodeInvisibilidad, a film she presented at the Guadalajara International Film Festival, @FICGUADALAJARA, where she won two awards and in which we were able to talk with her and her cinematographer Gabriel Serra.

“A spy presses a suit button and vanishes. A wizard wraps themselves in a cloak and disappears limb by limb. A star pilot’s ship blinks out of existence. #Invisibility has captured our imagination... but could this fantasy power ever become real?" 🐰🎩

Did you know that #invisibility cloaks are #real?
From the 2nd c's Cap of Hades to #Marvel 's Invisible Woman, magic that renders one #invisible is a common theme in #mythology & #scifi.
In 2006, #theoretical #physicist John Pendry figured out that light could be bent around an object so that it renders it invisible.
This led to many advancements in metamaterial science, known as 'metamaterial cloaking'.
I've enjoyed this talk by Pendry: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VO6IrynhjKs [start: 4:43min]
An invisible cloak sounds cool especially for the visible spectrum. Who is the experimental scientist that got the closest to achieving this? #photonics #metamaterial #invisibility #science #optics
