The kids are alright, at least in NYC.

Please see my comment on the YT here, after watching the vid. Johnnyliminal. Should be top in select newest.

Skateboarding in New York City has been pretty slow the last couple of years. Sure, there are a lot of new, talented transplants making their mark, but where’s the next generation of born and bred NYC skaters? Meet Ari & Luca.

The AI voice is a bit annoying and some pix look AI as well ,but overall a beautyful documentary..

--29 Jul 2026 #TravelDocumentary#IsolatedTribes
´Discover the nine most isolated and extreme tribes on the planet. In this Uncensored World documentary, we travel to the most remote corners of Earth to uncover the tribes the modern world has never fully managed to reach. From the most dangerous island in the Indian Ocean to houses suspended thirty meters high in the jungles of Papua, we explore the life, culture, and history of nine peoples who survived thanks to something civilization has been losing for centuries: total isolation. In this new documentary from Mundo Sin Censura.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🔎 How did an entire people survive one of the most devastating tsunamis in history without any kind of modern warning system? Why does one tribe pull up the ladders to their houses every night, afraid of what might climb up from the ground below? And how did another tribe manage to preserve, for fifty thousand years, a way of life that is now rewriting what science thought it knew about human metabolism?
From the Sentinelese of India to the Dogon of Mali, by way of the Moken of Thailand, the Korowai of Indonesia, the Hadza of Tanzania, the Waorani of Ecuador, the San of the Kalahari, the Kawahiva of the Brazilian Amazon, and the Baka of Central Africa, each people on this list holds a different reason for choosing, generation after generation, to stay apart from the rest of humanity.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🌍 A journey through North Sentinel Island, the Andaman archipelago, the jungles of Papua New Guinea, the Kalahari Desert in Botswana and Namibia, the Amazon rainforest of Brazil and Ecuador, and the cliffs of Bandiagara in Mali. Isolated peoples, uncontacted tribes, ancestral cultures, and the last truly disconnected communities in the modern world. This documentary is for those who want to understand what life is really like in the most remote places on the planet, discover different cultures, and learn about realities that rarely make it into mainstream media. A journey to nine of the most extraordinary corners of the Earth.´

Imagine trying to map out a single particle collision at CERN, only to discover that standard methods require calculating hundreds—or even thousands—of wildly complex Feynman diagrams. For decades, physicists have wrestled with these massive mathematical headaches just to figure out basic subatomic interactions.

Enter Carolina Figueiredo, a brilliant Princeton PhD student whose journey from Lisbon to the Institute for Advanced Study is officially shaking up the foundation of theoretical physics. Instead of getting bogged down in endless pages of calculations, Carolina uncovered a revolutionary geometric framework known as surfaceology—a concept that completely bypasses traditional methods by viewing quantum field theory through the lens of geometry.

Her groundbreaking approach not only earned her the inaugural Vera Rubin New Frontiers Prize, but it also gives us a fascinating glimpse into the future of quantum gravity, scattering amplitudes, and the fundamental rules of our universe."
