Scientists finds first place on Earth where life can not be exist We have just found the first place on Earth that is biochemically incompatible with life: A few months ago, the professor of physiology Juan Ignacio Pérez said that ”  in the places of our planet where we have searched, life has been found  “. From underground lagoons to hundreds of meters under the frozen Antarctic soil to the volcanoes’ fumaroles at more than 100º of temperature , this planet is simply infected with life everywhere. “Life, one way or another, can with everything” or so we came to think. However, a Spanish-French team has just turned the matter around by finding a place that embodies the boundary conditions that terrestrial organisms can withstand: Dallol,  the only place in the world that, as far as we know, is not suitable for any type of life  .

The interaction systems with our devices do not stop evolving. When we had become accustomed to everything we could do through a touch screen, news such as  voice assistants or gesture-based interaction  erupted on the scene  . Neither of them has come to be simply a technological showcase, both will be introduced in your phone to evolve and become a basic way to interact with your mobile device. When we talk about gestures, we talk about performing them on the air, without even having to touch the phone, with the amount of advantages that it reports. The  LG G8s  has reached the market with this technology implemented and willing to demonstrate that a paradigm shift in usability is possible. Because, in fact, throughout history few devices have changed both their way of interacting with us and the smartphone.
