It doesn't end until it ends... but it never ends. Since ancient times, war, hunger, and plague have haunted humanity. "None of these three biblical evils have been resolved and it is possible that in the 22nd century they will continue as things are going," lamented the head of the Infectious Diseases Service at the Virgen del Rocío University Hospital in Seville at the beginning of the meeting with journalists and colleagues, during which he also cited the phrase of the infectious disease expert and adviser —"to his dismay"— of US President Donald Trump during the covid pandemic, Anthony Fauci: "It doesn’t end until it ends... but it never ends." #Infecciones #SaludGlobal #Pandemias (translated)

David Ágape stated that journalists faced conflicts of interest when covering their own employers, especially due to work relationships. He compared this type of conflict to others, such as family ties, friendships, and ideological affinities, and said it also existed in science. According to Ágape, professionals from Metrópoles, Estadão, Folha, and O Globo did not usually publicly criticize their own outlets without permission. He also stated that advertisers could influence, directly or indirectly, the agendas of newspapers. In his assessment, in the model of free news, the product was the readers' attention and the client was the advertiser; he said that the Master case had made this dynamic evident. Ágape defended the existence of various competing outlets and mentioned what he called the "Consortium" during the pandemic. He noted that journalists still had individual responsibility to refuse unethical or illegal orders, but said that this aspect was often ignored in discussions on social media. He also advocated for alternative journalism funded by readers and called for subscriptions to support the outlet A Investigação and its independence. https://t.co/XuG3rvfuLG #Jornalismo #ConflitoDeInteresses #ImprensaIndependente (translated)

Nil Moretto stated that there were reasons to fear proposals that, according to him, provided for work on a 6x1 schedule, without benefits and at hours determined by the employer, in addition to retirement at 70 years old. He also said that unlinking retirement from the minimum wage would leave the amount to be received uncertain. Moretto classified this scenario as the worst possible and claimed that those responsible had already shown indifference to the deaths of Brazilians, whether during the pandemic or from exhaustion. #Trabalho #DireitosTrabalhistas #Medo (translated)

PlayStation News summarized a Bloomberg report on the challenges of developing GTA 6 and noted that Rockstar Games began planning it in 2015, under the name Project Americas. According to their publication, the project initially considered large regions of North America and South America but later scaled it down. The development of Red Dead Redemption 2 took priority for several years before Rockstar concentrated its resources on a single game. The company's workforce increased from 2,441 employees in 2018 to 4,711 in August 2026, spread across 12 offices. The publication indicated that Rob Nelson, Aaron Garbut, and Phil Hooker shared the main creative and development responsibilities, and that the story by Jason Duval and Lucía Caminos began to take shape in late 2019. It described the early years as particularly difficult due to the lack of a clear vision and stated that by 2022, sufficient systems had been integrated for the team to better understand the complete game. It also noted that GTA 6 would leverage advancements from Red Dead Redemption 2 and that Rockstar had discussed how to balance realism and fun, even in everyday activities. PlayStation News wrote that Jason and Lucía could share activities outside of missions and that players could send messages to Lucía to meet with her. According to their summary, during a test, Phil Hooker spent about two hours exploring the world without starting the intended mission; a traffic accident led to fights, thefts, and police chases. The publication attributed the delays to the complexity of the project, system integration, and the time needed to achieve the desired quality. It added that Strauss Zelnick was surprised by the second delay but supported the decision, and that the pandemic affected, among other things, motion capture and acting sessions. The publication also noted that some veteran developers left Rockstar due to frustration with the slow progress and that the leaks from September 2022 were an invasive and emotionally difficult experience for the team. According to their summary, in 2024 the company imposed five days a week of in-person work and restricted remote access to development tools for security reasons. Rockstar reportedly improved planning, hired more staff, and established compensations or breaks for overtime to reduce crunch, although it had not completely disappeared. Management also reportedly said it would recognize a union if workers decided to organize. PlayStation News indicated that the new GTA Online experience was scheduled for 2027, although it still did not have an official date. It added that during Schreier’s visit to Rockstar North, the team was focused on fixing bugs, and internal indicators showed that they were resolving more issues than remained pending. #GTA6 #RockstarGames #Videojuegos (translated)

Bonifacio Castellane wrote that the Court of Cassation, suspending the disbarment of the three doctors investigated for the case of false certificates in Ravenna, noted that a bureaucratic aspect could not justify the suspension of healthcare duties. Referring also to a notification defect in a case concerning Salis, he said he recalled different measures, for example during the pandemic. He concluded with an ironic reference to the "Gramscian Parastate," rhetorically asking who he was to challenge it. #sanità #giustizia #Ravenna (translated)
